has served in the German army but
came to this country about ten years
ago to make this his home. He speaks
English very brokenly, and has rtcn
voice for singing. Last year when no
attended the meeting he entertained
the guests with German song. This
year when called upon to entertain the
guests he replied that he could sing
nothing but German songs and no re-

He was called upon for some re-

Last year the people in this country
used l60. 100000 gallons Of DISABLED
liquors, 1900 10000 gallons OF malt
liquors and about 5Oo00000 gallons Of
wine
This is equivalent to something over
twenty gallons OF beverage containing
alcohol for every man, woman and
child Of our hundred million poulation.
The vast majority Of these people es-
tecm alcoholic beverages essential =
their health and happiness, or they
would not keep them in their homes
and use them so persistently as they
do.
Can the fiat Of law overthrow such
demand? OF can the machinery OF
government prevent such demand be-
ing supplied? The idea seems to me
chimerical; that is Bryanish.

Why do the prohtbitionists buy

For the reason that all people in

women-value It moro highly than any
other commodity Of similar monetary
value.

LINEN DRIVE FOR FRANCE

The Red Cross commissioner for
France has cabled that the hospitals
of France are in urgent need of the
following supplies, viz: 1,250,O00 bath
towels; 100000 hand towels; 1,75O,-
900 handkerchiefs; $4,000 napkins,
and large number of sheets, either
bleached or unbleached muslin, with
a tWo-inch hem at the top and one
inch hem at the bottom.
The approximate dimensions Of
these articles should be as follows:
Bath towels, 19x38 inches.
Hand towels. 18x3O inches.
Handkerchief, 18x18 inches.
Napkins, 14x14 inches.
Sheets, 64x1O2 inches.
Beginning Sept. Both and continu-
ing for one week there will be Sim
en- shower" all over the country to
secure these articles. Each family in
.Ocala and Marion county is asked to
give one of these articles or set of
articles from their reserve stock, and
in this way without material reduc-
ton of the source of supply, large
quantities of useful gifts can be Sc
cured for the Red Cross work. Mar
ion county must and will, we feel
sure, go cover the top and beyond" in
her allotment. These gifts must be
new or substantially new. and should
be of strong rather than fine texture,
and are not necessarily to be of linen,
but of good cotton material.
Mrs. Jack Camp is the chairman for
this linen drive for the Marion Coun-
|ty Florida Chapter, and she has ap-
pointed quite number of the ladies
to assist her in this work. A house
to house canvass will be made next
week to secure Ocala's allotment and
Mrs. Camp has also appointed a
chairman for each branch of the
chapter to secure the remainder OF
the county's allotment.
These gifts are to be brought OF
sent. to Mrs. c. II. Lloyd at the food
administration Office, opposite the
Harrington Hall hotel, not later thar
Saturday, October 5th.

corning the drive, please telephone

climb in the educational profession,
as men and women do in other profess
sions, make more money and have an
influence that is better than money.
We have examples here in Ocala.
We did not intend to go into these
matters We objected to the amend
ment on the sound business and legal
principle that it is, very bad policy
to increase taxes by constitutional
amendment. We also said that the
schools, like everything else, could do
for the present without more income,
and that il was their patriotic duty to
do SO until the war is over.
Mr.. Brinson has not replied to
either of these objections. He has
Dragged on the good condition of
Marion county schools, shown US
some of them, shown us how much
better off they are than any other
county work and then chirped for
more money. And he says we are
vicious and talk like a demagogue.
We leave that to orr readers. Is
there anything vicious in anything
we have written, and does our argu-
ment on this subject read like that of

Calomel salivatesl It's mercury.
Calomel acts like dynamite on Z
sluggish liver. When calomel comes
into contact with sour bile it crashes
into it, causing cramping and nausea.
If you feel bilious, headachy, com
stipated and all knocked out, Just 20
to your druggist and get a bottle Of
Dodson's Liver Tone for a few centa
which is harmless vegetable sub
stitute for dangerous calomel. Taks
a spoonful and if it doesn't start
your liver and straighten you up
better and quicker than nasty caloma
and without making you sick, You
just 60 back and get your money.
If you take calomel today you'll b
sick and nauseated tomorrow; be-
sides, it may salivate you, while il
you take Dodson's Liver Tone you
will wake up feeling great, full of
ambition and ready for work or play.
