Thought Barber Was Dumb

There is an article in the American Magazine in which writer tells about a barber who has retired with $500, O0O Here is Iart 0: 1t:
 One man.. says Hysler, kept looking at the barber who was working on him, and finally he called me over and asked if the man was dumb. He had come from the west, and could not understand the silence. l. made him nervous. he said
 Another point in Hyslers success was that his barbers were not allowed to urge shampoos or ma ssages on patrons Hysler believes that men know what they want when they enter a shop. He also cut ort1 all talk of hair restorers or dyeins of hair. lie does not believe in either
 The way to succeed in the barber shop, he says. is to see that every man Is suited.s Too much care cannot be given to courtesy and cleanliness. A clean shop attracts and invites customers, and they are satisfied when they leave ?

 In the prodigality of our national waste we are threatened with 30-cent-a-loa1 bread and $1-a-pound beef.
 By prompt action we can profit by the costly experience of all Europe and be- come fully equipped to feed the democ- racies of the world.
 Delay means that we shall have bread cards and soup kitchens within a year.
 This book suggests and provides for the practice of economies in the production preparation and the use of foods.
 With regulation now,-' says MT. Nc Cam, i've can have all the food we need for home use and export to our allies 200 100000 pounds. Without regulation, we shall have bread cards and soup kitchens within a year. This little book furnishes a definite programme, not only for i'm mediate regulation, but for individual economy in the production, preparation and use of food-a programme which act ually solves, and solves at once, the great est problem of the day

"GLAcIER NATIONAL PARK" q

GLACIER NATIONAL PARK" CTS TRAILS AND TREASURES.) By Kath- crime s. Bemis and Mathilde Holtz. H. lustrated with photographs. George H. Doran company, publishers, New York. This is not only the first comprehensive ly descriptive guide to the recently opened Rocky mountain wonderland but also a delightfully."- entertaining record of days spent in the open, of horseback trips along narrow mountain trails, nights un- der the stars within sound of rushing glacier springs. Chapters on the rare AL pine flora to be found in the park. on the Indians and the old Indian legends of the district, make this altogether unique among guide books.
 It was in 1910 that President Taft signed the bill which made nearly 100000 acres of magnificent Rocky mountain wilder
 ness into the greatest national park in
 the United States.
 Today, Glacier National park is a tour
 ist's paradise, traversed by many roads
 and equipped with beautiful hotels. One
 is quite safe in prophesyng that this Alpine wonderland will eventually be to travellers what Niagara Falls was to an
 earlier generation; what the Yosemite,
 Yellowstone and the Grand Canyon of the Colorado are to the generations of today.
 This is the first compresensive descrip- tive guide to Glacier park.

CALOMEL WHEN BILIOUS? NO! STOP!
 ACTS LIKE DYNAMITE ON LIVER
Guarantee "Dodsons Liver Tone" Will Give You the Best Liver and Bowel Cleansing You Ever Had-Doesn Make You Sck

Stop using calomel! It makes you sick. Don't lose a days work. If you feel lazy, sluggish, bilious or consti- pated, listen to me!
 Calomel is mercury or quicksilver which causes necrosis of the bones. Calomel, when it comes into contact with sour bile, crashes into 1t, breaking it up. This is when you feel that aw- full nausea and cramping. If you feel "all knocked out" If your liver is tor pid and bowels constipated or you have headache, dizziness, coated tongue, if breath is bad or stomach sour just try spoonful of harmless Dodson's Liver Tone.
 Here's my guarantee-Go to any drug store or dealer and get 50-cent bottle of Dodson's Liver Tone. Take a
Judsonia weekly advance., 1917-06-20

spoonful and if it doesn't straighten you right up and make you feel fine and vigorous want you to go back to the store and get your money. Dod- sons Liver Tone is destroying the sale of calomel because it is real liver medicine; entirely vegetable, therefore it cannot salivate or make you sick.
 I guarantee that one spoonful of Dodson's Liver Tone will put your sluggish liver to work and clean your bowels of that sour bile and consti- pated waste which is clogging your system and making you feel miserable. I guarantee that bottle of Dodson's Liver Tone will keep your entire fam fly feeling fine for months. Give it to your children. It is harmless; doesn't gripe and they like it's pleasant taste. Adv.

Have souqht to Deceive World.

Have sought 10 OeceiVe Worio.
 The present particular aim of the masters of Germany is to deceive all those who throughout the world stand for the rights of peoples and the self government of nations; for they see what immense strength the forces of justice and of liberalism are gathering out of this war.
 The sinister intrigue is being no less actively conducted in this country than in Russia and in every country in Eu- rope to which the agents and dupes of the imperial German government can get access.
 In War for Freedom and Justice.
 The great fact that stands out above all the rest is that this Is Peoples war. war for freedom and justice and self-government amongst all the na- tions of the world, war to make the world safe for the peoples who live in it and have made it their own, the German people themselves included and that with us rests the choice to bl eak through all these hypocrisies and DaIenC cIedlS anu lHtlShS Ol bl utC lolNS and help set the world free, or else stand aside and let 1t be dominated a long age through by sheer weight ot arms and the arbitrary choices of self constituted masters, by the nation which can maintain the biggest armies and the most irresistible armaments- power to which the world has af- forded no parallel and in the face of which political freedom must wither and perish.
 For us there Is but one choice. We have made it. Woe be to the man or group of men that seeks to stand in our way in this day of high resolution when every principle we hold dearest Is to be vindicated and made secure for the salvation of the nations.

Are you doing your bit to save the
sugar supply of the country in order
that France can be supplied with
sufficient to tide her over until the
new crop is available? An appeal
has been sent out to the people of
the state urging them to reduce their
sugar ration to a minimum for the
next few months. France must have
100000 tons within the next thirty
days and it is up to America to sup
ply it by cutting down on her own
supply. Food Administrator Hoov-
err points out that Americans are
very extravagant with their sugar.
We consume ninety pounds per cap
tia year as against twenty-one
pounds by such countries as France,
England and Italy. In other words
the 100000 people in this state use
as much sugar as 100000 French
people.
