Eyestrain, being the most COM

Yet. as far as the eyes themselves
are concerned, the average sufferer
from eyestrain experiences no

Starts Your Liver Without Making
You Sick and Cannot Saliyate.

Every druggist in town-your
druggist and everybody's druggist
has noticed a great falling off in the
sale of calomel. They all give the
same reason. Dodson's Liver Tone is
taking its place.
"Calomel Is dangerous and people
know it, while Dodsons Liver Tone
is perfectly safe and gives better re-
suits" said prominent local drug
gist. Dodson's Liver Tone Is person
ally guaranteed by every druggist
who sells it. A large bottle costs
SO cents, and If it fails to give easy
relief IN every case Of liver sluggish
ness and constipation, you have only
to ask for your money back.
Dodson's Liver Tone is pleasant
tasting, purely vegetable remedy,
harmless to both children and adults.
Take a spoonful at night and wake up
feeling fine; no biliousness, sick
headache, acid stomach or constipat-
ed bowels. 1t doesn't gipe or cause
inconvenience all the next day like
violent calomel. Take dose Of cal
omel to-day and tomorrow you will
feel weak, sick and nauseated. Don't
lose a days work! Take DOdsOn's
Liver Tone instead and feel fine, full
OF vigor and ambition.--Adv.
