There's no reason why a person should take sickening, saliyating cal omel when a few cents buys a large bottle of Dodson's Liver Tone-a perfect substitute for calomel.
 It is a pleasant, vegetable liquid which will start your liver just as surely as calomel, but it doesn't make you sick and can not salivate.
 Children and grown folks can take Dodson's Liver Tone, because it is perfectly harmless.

ROLLER THROUGH FENCE.
Smashed Dodge Roadster, but Ford
Was Only Slightly Damaged.

Harold Roller, the Abilene racer
plunged through the fence of the
race track at Hlawatha Thursday
afternoon when he was driving about
seventy-five miles per hour. Roller
was one lap ahead of the nearest car
when the accident happened. Johnny
Mais and several other drivers
crowded around the Abilene racer
until he was compelled to drive
through a bank of soft dirt. This
threw his car slightly, causing his
front wheel to lock with the rear
wheel of a Chevrolet racer. Rollers
Ford dashed through the fence,
struck Dodge car head on and
then stopped. While the Ford spe-
eial was damaged slightly, the Dodge
roadster was nearly demolished. No
one was injured.
Before the races started Johnny
Mais tried to keep Roller out OF the
race, but did not succeed in doing
So The Abilene racer will have his
Ear in repair soon and be ready for

a German machine fly over and shoot
down one of our big observation
balloons, for the balloons are mighty
good targets. But our machines
then get even by going over Fritz's

Hobart Gish, son of Mr. and Mrs

one letter home he says that all he
is doing is taking the Yankees to the
front as fast as he can. He is sta

front and can hear the shooting all

airplanes are to be seen. Hobart, in
one letter, says that the truck drIv-

run without lights in order that the
enemy aviators cannot make out
where they are. Hobart says it is

after their daily workouts in the

PEACE OVER EARTH AGAIN
goldman, spare it for me.

Before, o world of troubled men;
For peace is coming back again
Peace to the trenches running red,
Peace to the hosts of the fleeing dead.
Peace to the fields where hatred raves,
Peace to the trodden battle-graves.
Twill be the peace the Master left
To hush the world of peace bereft-
The peace proclaimed in lyric cries
That night the angels broke the skies.
Again the shelltorn hills will be
All green with barley to the knee;
And little children sport and run
In love once more With earth and sun.
IAgain in rent and ruined trees
Foung leaves will sound like silver
seas;
And birds now stunned by the red
uproar
| Will build in happy boughs once
more;
And to the bleak uncounted graves
THE grass will run in silken waves;
lard great hush will softly fall
On tortured plain and mountain wall.
Now wild with cries of battling hosts
And cuxses of the fleeing ghosts.
And men will wonder over it
This red upfaming of the Pit;
And they Will gather as friends anil
say,
|"Ccme, let US try tie Masters way.
Ages we tried the way of swords,
And earth is weary Of hostile nordes.
Comrades, read cut His words again:
They are the only hope for men!
Love and not hate must come to birth;
Christ and not Cain must rule the
earth"
