suit? The President would have tc
order out about 100000 men to have
even corporal's guard, then hun
dreds of millions of dollars for pre-
paredness. But Morgan and his crowd
can furnish the money. I say let
wheat and cotton go rather than loss
of lives. have a little cotton left:
let it go. What does the great law
say: Money, or the love of money
is the root of all evil. What is hurt
ing so much now is the munitions fac
tories are found to lose money if the
submarine war continues. The great
cry in the press is the great loss to
the cotton and grain farmers, saying
little of the big fellows loss. What
the big dogs want is to get first little
farmers and wage earners interested
for they know nothing can be done
without them. While the honest peo
pie are sleeping they are planning how
to deceive them. Every now and then
you hear an old Confederate Veteran

him no more questions. I don't know
who is to blame for all this suffering
and shedding of blood, but mammon
is at the bottom of it all. see in

pretty good per cent. I'd like to have

EVER SALIVATED BY
CALOMEL? HORRIBLE!
CalOmel is Quicksilver and Acts Like
Dynamite on Your Liver.

Calomel loses you day! You know
what calomel is. It's mercury; quick
silver. Calomel is dangerous. T.
crashes into sour bile like dynamite,
cramping and sickening you. Calomel
attacks the bones and should never be
put into your system.
When you feel bilious, sluggish, con
stipated and all knocked out and be-
lieve you need a dose of dangerous
calomel just remember that your drug
gist sells for SO cents large bottle
of Dodson's Liver-Tone, which is en-
tirely vegetable and pleasant to take
and is perfect substitute for calomel.
1t is guaranteed to start your liver
without stirring you up inside, and
can not salivate.
Don't take calomel! 1t makes you
sick the next day; it loses you a days
work. Dodson's Liver Tone straight
ems you right up and you feel great.
Give it to the children because it is
perfectly harmless and doesn't gripe.

FOOD CONSERVATION.

This has been a busy week for

the United States Food Admins
tration for Bolivar county. He
has appointed local chairman for
each community in the county aud
distributed many thousand cards
pledging the people to follow the
Instructions of the Food Admins

The Democrat desires to urge
every person in Bolivar county to

WILL REQUIRE MILLIONS OF
MEN.

The events of the past week or
ten days makes il clear that this
country will be required to furnish
not only billions of dollars in mon
ey, but millions OF men. to assist
the Allies to win the great strug-
gle against Germany. Austria.
Turkey and Bulgaria. The Ger.
mans have delivered a crushing
defeat on the Italian army and
France and En- gland will have to
send troops and ammunition to the
Italian front to prevent that army
being annihilated. The French
and British will have to 90 there
because they are nearer than we
are aud already prepared to do so.
But when the reserve- of those
countries are taken to assist Italy
then the United States soldiers
must serve as reserves to the Brit
'sn and French armies.
The situation grows more ssri-
Gus every day aud we had better
realize It now than wait until it is
too late.
Many people talk only of Ger
many being OH one side of this
combat. This is a very mistaken
idea. Austria Hungary is large
country. and SO is Turkey. When
ied by German officers the soldiers
OF these latter countries fight to
'he death, aud the Central Powers
still have millions of men that they
can put in the field. If the war is
determined by the utter exhaus-
t'on of those countries. then the
conflict is just now begun and it
may be years before the United
states aud her Allies win the vic
tory. But in the end we will win.
10 do it. however. every energy
must be exerted. aud every rule
laid down BY our leaders must be
followed. There should be nc
siackers in any line. Let's all get
IN the game NOW.
