Starts Your Liver Without Making
You Sick and Can Not

Every druggist in town-your
druggist and everybody's druggist
has noticed a great falling of 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 guaranteed by every drug
eist 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 a pleasant
tasting, purely vegetable remedy,
harmless to both children and adults.
Take a spoonful at night and wake
up feeling fine; no biliousness, sick
headache, acid stomach or constlpat-
ed bowels. 1t doesn't grippe or cause
inconvenience all the next day like
violent calomel. Take dose OF cal
omel today and tomorrow you VIII
feel weak, Sick and nauseated. Don't
lose a days work! Take Dodson, $
Liver Tone instead and feel fine, full
of vigor and ambition. Adv.

THE HOLY ROSARY INSTITUTE
AT LAFAYETTE.

Editor St. Tammany Farmer:
Would you kindly grant me space
in your valued paper TOR the follow
ing item which, l feel, will be OF in
terest 10 NUMBER OF your readers.
On a recent visit to Lafayette, one
of the progressive towns TO our state,
l was agreeab bly, surprised to lind
there, located on the edge of town,
a magnificent new institution, known
as Holy Rosary Institute. The
building, a modern brick structure.
three stories high, is situated on one
of the most beautiful pieces Of
ground in this part of the state.
The object of this institution is to
give girls grammar and high school
education, and to teach them in a
preparatory way, washing, ironing.
plain sewing and fine dressmaking,
crocheting, embroidery. millinery,
etc. / had the pleasure of seeing
some of the work of the pupils, and
l must confess, it was a revelation to
me. Some of the fine needlework
and embroidery would make a fine
display in the show windows of any
large stores in big city.
On my visit to the institution
was agreeably surprised to find there
a teacher and a pupil from Madison
vile, the former being Sister Emer-
anita, of the Holy Family Communi-
ty, known in the world as Miss Del
pit. The pupil is Cecil Delpit, a
niece of Sister Emerantia. Although
only four years in existence, the in
stitution has Is pupils, of whom SO
are boarders, from all parts of Lou
isiana, and even from Alabama and
Texas. After seeing the institution
and the grand work carried on in 1t,
l came to the conclusion that little
report of it in your valued paper
might be rendering favor to some
of our people who have girls that
they might want to send to good
institution, venture to say that a
better place for good education and
an all around practical training Of
girls, could hardly be found. Any
body desiring further information
about this institution may obtain it
by writing the Holy Roasry lnsti-
tute, Lafayette, Louisiana.
Sincerely yours,
VISITOR.

LOUISIANA WOMAN, NOTED AS
AN ATTORNEY, PUBLISHES
SECOND BOOK ON LAW.
Mrs. Rose Falls Bres Brings Out
'.Maids, Wives and Widows

Mrs. Rose Falls Bres, formerly of
New Orleans but now one of the lead
ing women lawyers of New York,
has just had her second book pub
lished pertaining to the legal status
of women. Her first book, women
and the Law" was sold out in It's
first edition within a few weeks of
it's publication. Her last book,
maids, Wives and Widows" is is
sued by leading publishing house
in New York and is winning high
praise from the legal fraternity.
These books by Mrs. Bres are
unique, in that they express in terms
of plain English the vagaries of the
law as operative for women in every
state in the Union. And Mrs. Bres
ought to know all these vagaries for
she is one of the busiest lawyers in
New York, having only one hour a
day to give to consultations in her
Offices from her work of arguing cas-
es before the courts. She is also
the founder and editor of "Oyez," a
magazine Of the International Wo-
men Lawyers Association, which has
recently suspended publication for
the period of the war. Aside from
all this, she is prominently associat-
ed with the progressive feminist
movement, and with the war work of
New York.
Mrs. Bres was admitted to the bar
in Kentucky when she was in her
teens. since Louisiana, her native
state, had not yet attained to the
recognition of women lawyers. Even
in Kentucky their admission was
such noveltl that one of the oaths
required of the young Rose Falls
was, II do solemnly swear never to
engage in q duel with a citizen Of
Kentucky, nor act as second in any
such duel" While studying for the
bar there she and her friend-Irv-
ing Cobb-were co-editors Of the
town paper. Their friendship re-
manned unbroken by time and change
and he was one Of the contributors
to her magazine ''Oyez."
Mrs. Bres was afterward admitted
to the bar in New Orleans and prac-
ticed law here several years, being
the first woman to plead cases before
the Supreme Court and Court of APP
peals in this State. She has been in
active praeAlce in New York for the
past four Jars, and is possibly the
only woman in the United States who
is qualified to practice in three of its
states. After passing her xeamina-
ton for the bar In New York state,
her only comment to an interested
Press was: II am all tuckered
