TRY II! SUBSTITUTE
FOR NASTY CALOMEL
Starts your liver without making
you sick and can not
salivate.

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 Dodson's Liver Tone
is perfectly safe and gives better re-
Suits" said a prominent local drug-
gist. Dodson's Liver Tone is per-
sonally guaranteed by every drug
gist who sells it. A large bottle
costs but few 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 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 consti-
pated bowels. It doesn't grippe or
cause Inconvenience all the next
day like violent calomel.

In Memory of Our Brother.

Near Summerfield church, in
ward six, Grant parish, La.
Walter Lasyone was killed about
4 p. m. on Sunday, Feb. II. 1918.
Oh. it was so hard to give dear
Walter up in such a manner.
He was a quiet and peaceful boy,
and was never. known to have a
fight in or out of school. He was
loved by all who knew him. and
has many friends to mourn his
loss. We know our darling bro
ther is resting where sorrow
never comes; but, we miss him
so much for he was always our
comfort and help. He was a
third-cfass soldier, and otter
talked of going to help his coun,
try. He said he was willing to
die for his country; and to sec
his dear life taken in such a
manner. 1t is so hard to give
up such gallant young man
that was so ready and willing to
fight for his country. Weepnot,
dear ones, God doeth all things
well. We laid dear Walter to
rest on Tuesday, Feb. 10. Our
darling brother is gone from us
but not forgotten. The lastwords
we heard from him were, Il
wont be gone long,. and it is SC
hard to think the next thing we
heard he was killed. Oh. it was
such a dreadful shock to all his
people. and we thank our many
friends who SO kindly aided us
in our distress. Dear Walter
leaves an aged mother, four bro.
theirs, four sisters, three sisters
in-law, five neices, one nephew,
and a host of other relatives and
friends to mourn his loss. Lei
us all live and pray to God that
we may meet darling Walter or
on that golden shore.
ONE Who LOVED HIM.

Important Jefferson Highway Inspec-
tim

On last Monday an important
inspection of the 33-!nile link of
the Jefferson Highway through
Grant parish was made by Mr..
Schuman, representing the U. S.
government, and Mr.. Cooper,
representing the State Highway
Department. Mr.. Schuman, ac-
companied by Mr.. w. A. Brown
lee, president of the Grant par
ish police jury. made an automo-
bile trip over the section of road
from Colfax to the north line of
Grant parish, while Mr.. Cooper
made an inspection south from
CoIfax to the Rapides parish line
in company with Mr.. John Ran
dolph.
We understand these gentle
men will urge that all possible
speed be made in the construc-
ton of the Jefferson Highway,
and especially in the ten-miie
stretch next to the Rapides par
ish line, which is the only portion
of the road in Grant needing i'm
mediate attention. The balance
of the highway is a model dirt
road, and will do fairly well until
the use of gravel is used to bring
it up to standard.
Let everybody now join in
boosting the Jefferson Highway,
and let our Senators and Repre-.
sentatives be called on to use
their utmost endeavors to have
the government give immediate
aid to this great highway, which
its Importance merits.
