UGH! CALOMEL MAKES
YOU DEATHLY SICK
Stop Using Dangerous Drug Before
1t Salivates You! It's
HOrrible!

You're bilious, sluggish eonstipat-
ed and believe you need vile, danger
Gus caIomel to start your liver and
clean your bowels
Here's my guarantee! Ask your
druggist for a bottle of Dodson' s
Liver Tone and take spoonful to-
night. Ii it doesn't start your liver
and straighten you right up better
than calomel and without griping
or making you sick l want you to g0
back to the store and get your
money.
Take calomel today and tomorrow
you will fee. weak and sick and nau-
seated. Don't lose days work.
Take spoonful Of harmless vege-

and wake up feeling great. It's
perfectly harmless, so give it to your
children any time. 1t can't salivdte

following the war, and have laid plans
to subscribe this sum during the week

of five years to be given in which to
complete the payment Of these sub
scriptions.
The decision to inaugurate this
world program was reached at the
meeting of the Southern Baptist Con.

task. The campaign has now been or,
ganiZed with the general headquarters
in Nashville, Tenn, where DIR. l.. R.
Scarborough, president of the South
western Baptist Theological Seminary
at Fort Worth, is in charge as general
director for the South. He Is assisted
by number of men In charge of spe,
cial divisions of the work, while each
of the eighteen states in the territory
of the Southern Baptist Convention
has in turn perfected state organiza-
ton, including State Director, q
State Organizer and State Publicity
Director. Each association, or dis
trict, within each of the states has
likewise gotten busy by naming its as.
sociational or district directors, and
the work of organization has been car
ried into the local churches to the ex-
tent that practically all of the more
than 25 900 local Baptist congregations
in the South have their workers
named to help put over the biggest
church drive that has ever been at
tempted In this section Of the country.
There are 100000 white Baptists hold
ing church membership in the South,
and it Is hoped to reach every man,
woman and child among them with
the message of this campaign and
give each of them a part In the plan
Of saving the world by giving to the
extent of their ability to this vast con.
eervation fund.
Christian education, home and for
eign missions, state missions, minis
terial relief, orphanages and hospitals,
are among the various general inter
ests Of the denomination that will be
cared for in this campaign, the matter
of local church expenses, and local
church equipment not being included.
Between now and November goth
every effort will be put forth in Or
ganizing and mobilizing the Baptist
forces in the South, preparatory to the
launching of the big drive for the sub
scriptions and cash payments. July
was known as preparation month
August was designated as Information
month, during which time every Ell

the people on every phase of the cam
paign, while September has been des
lgnated as intercession month, October
as enlistment month, November as
stewardship month, and the period
from November 80 to December as
victory week.
I'VE have undertaken big task,
DR.. Scarborough, the General Director
says, "but we have undertaken it in
Gods name and for His glory, and by
trusting in God and doing our whole
duty, we will succeed. There is work
here for all, and glory enough for all
~ we win, but we cannot succeed ex
cept we labor diligently and pray
earnestly"
