CalOmel SaliYateS
 and Makes You Sick
Acts Like Dynamite on Sluggish Liver and You Lose
 Days Work.

There's no reason why a person should take sickening, salivatine cal omel when a few cents buys a acge bottle of Dodsons Liver Tone-a per feet substitute for calome!
 It is g pleasant, vegetable liquid which will start your liver just as surely as calomel, but 1t doesn't make you sick and can not salvate.
 Children and grown folks can take Dodson's Liver Tone, because it is per fectly harmless
 Calomel is a dangerous drug. It is mercury and attacks your bones. Take dose of nasty ealomel today and you will feel weak, sick and nauseated tomorrow Don't lose a days work. Take spoonful, of nodson's Liver Tone instead you will wake up feeling great. No more biliousness. constipation, sluggishness, headache coated tongue or sour stomach. Yonr druggist says if you don't find Dod- sons Liver Tone acts better than hor- rible calomel your money is waiting for you.

 Until life's journeys OCT, We, too, shall dwell with her above,
 On that Eternal Shore.

SOLDIERS LETTERS.
FROM RAY RALST0N.

Mrs. R. Ralston this week received a letter from her son, Ray, who left Springdale with Company A, almost year ago. Shortly after the company arrived at Camp Beauregard Ray was stricken with pneumonia which settled in his lungs and he has been in the hospital ever since. He was recently moved to hospital at Atlanta, Ga, and is now recovering his strength. The letter follows:
 Gen. Hospital No. 6, July 28, 1918.
 Dear Mother: l received your let ter today Sure was glad to hear from you and know you are all well. l am still feeling fine My side is heal ed up good. like this place fine.

The weather is soile different here from that at Beaure- gard Has rained every day since we have been here, but don't ever get muddy as all the streets are paved. Tell Pete I sure would like to see him and hope I will get home before he leaves. No, 1 did not bring my box with me. It was not worth bringing. The boys almost tore it up while l was in the hospital. am going to get me a suitcase the first time 1 go to town. It is 4 miles to town but I can go on street car for a jitney. Yes, there are lots of men here. They have 1500 German prisoners here. They were sailors when they were cap tured and believe me, they are sure guarded some. They have got them in a pen with 15-foot barb wire fence around them and the wire is charged with electricity.
 There is a swimming pool about blocks from camp and we can go there to swim. The Red Cross takes us out riding every evening after supper if we want to go. There are several of the boys here that have been to France and got wounded. I stay in a brick house and all have to do is rake up my bed and help clean up. N'e can sit on the porch and see the picture show It is right in front of L barracks Answer soon.
