him as a lost criminal but as a
saved hero.
Friends, grieve not, look to
God. He will bear your burdens.
No greater honors could have
been paid Gray, if he had died

Every druggist in town-your

off in the sale of calomel. They
all give the same reason, Dod-

"Calomel is dangerous and

Liver Tone is perfectly safe and
gives better results" said a
prominent local druggist" Dod-
sons Liver Tone is personally
guaranteed by every druggist
who sells it. Alarge bottle costs
so cents, and if it fails to give
easy relief in every case Of liver
sluggishness and constipation,
you have only to ask for your
money back.
Dodson's Liver Tone is a pleas
~ant-tasting, purely vegetable
remedy, harmless to both chill
dren and adults. Take a spoon
full at night and wake up feeling
fine; no biliousness, sick head
ache, acid stomach or constlpated

like violent calomel. Take a dose
Of calomel today and tomorrow
you will feel weak, sick and
