Starts your liver without making
you sick snd can not

Every druggist in town-wur
druggist and everybody's druggist
has noticed great falling-oif 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 prominent local Drug
gist. Dodson's Liver Tone is per-
sonally guassnteed by every drug
gist who sells it A large bottle
costs but a 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 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
lay like violent calomel.

sion at Quebec has kept an ac-
count of how Canadian troops
Jared in the war, and. has COM
piled some interesting statistics
based upon its Investigations ard
observations.
Addressing Canadian mothers
and fathers, the commission says:
If your boy goes to the front:
He has % chances of coming
home to one chance of being
killed.
He has SO chances of recover
ing from a wound to two chances
of dying.
He has only one chance in 500
of losing a limb.
He will live five years longer
because of physical training.
He is freer from disease in the
army than in civil life.
He has better medical care at
the front than at home.
In other wars from ten to if
teen men died from disease to
one from bullets.
In this war one man dies from
disease to every ten from bullets.
This war is less wastefuI to life
than any other in history.
Only 10 per cent of all Cana
dams disabled for further SER
vice have been physically unable
to engage in their former occu-
pations.
If your boy is one of the 10 ger
cent the government willre-euu-
cate him in another vocation at

The following telegram has
been sent by the Provost Marshal
General to the governors of all
States:
1t has been decided that there
will be no more formal call for

they have enough men finally
classified in class /, send forward
promptly men selected under the
Old regulations to make up de-
6ciencies in calls already made,
the result of this decision will be
that we shall be able to give the
benefit of the new classification
system to all men whose order
numbers are SO late as to place
them within deferred percent
ages of the present call.
Calls will, however. be made
very shortly under the provisions
of Section 149 for the special
class of men there mentioned.
For the sake of composing the
public mind and for the conven-
fence of registrants this informa-
ton ought to be given wide dis
