BRITISH ARE USING
 GREAT NEW PLANE
Said to Have Secured Wonderful :. Results in the Present Strug-
 gle,

London, July 20.-The newspapers today give prominence to a report of a new type of British airplane which, having been tested at the front with the greatest success, is about to be employed there in large numbers.
 No technical details are given, but it is said the new machine has enor- nous speed and climbing powers. It is capable of carrying great weight in bombs. machine guns and other equipment and of attaining a height of 10000 feet in an astonishingly short time.
 It is said the machine can cover long distances at speed which leaves all but the fastest modern scouting machines far behind and thus is able to cross the enemy's lines and drop bombs and return for a fresh load within time limit far less than any of the earlier airplanes.
 The engines of the airplanes are de- clared to be so completely reliable that risk of compulsory descent into ,the enemy's territory is eliminated It is added that not one of these won der machines has yet been downed, notwithstanding the utmost efforts of the Germans.

Ca|ome| Users! Listen To Me!
 Guarantee Oodson'S Liver Tone Your druggist gives back your money if it doesn't iven your liver and bowels and straighten
 you up without making you sick.

Ugh! Calomel makes you sick. It's horrible! Take a dose of the danger ous drug tonight and tomorrow you may lose days work.
 Calomel is mercury or quicksilver which causes necrosis of the bones. Calomel, when it comes into contact with sour bile, crashes into it, break ing it up. This is when you feel that awful nausea and cramping. If you are sluggish and "all knocked out," if your liver is torpid and bowels consti- pated or you have headache, dizziness, coated tongue, if breath is bad or stomach sour, just try a spoonful of harmless Dodson't Liver Tone tonight.
 Here's my guarantee-Go to any drug store and get a bottle of bod son s Liver Tone for few cents. Take

spoonful and if it uoesn't straighten you right up and make you feel fine and vigorous I 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 med- icine; entirely vegetable, therefore it can not 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 constipat- ed waste which is clogging your sys- tenn and making you feel miserable. l guarantee that bottle of Dodson's Liver Tone willskeep your entire fami- ly feeling fine for months. Give it to your children. It is harmless; dosen't gripe and they like its pleasant taste. -kdvt.
