Take "Dodson's Liver Tone" Instead!

If you feel bilious, headachy, con.
stipated and all knocked out, just go
to your druggist and get a bottle OF
Dodson's Liver Tone for a few cents,
which is a harmless vegetable sub.
stitute for dangerous calomel. Take
Il spoonful and if it doesn't start
your liver and straighten you up
better and quicker than nasty calomel

Mrs H Z. Newton of Holden Fl. +. Nichols was in Memphis
visited relatives here last week. Tenn, last week.

Calomel salivates! It's mercury. Calomel
acts like dynamite on a sluggish liver. When
calomel comes into contact with sour bile it
crashes into it, causing cramping and nausea.

and without making you sick, you
just 60 back and get your money.
If you take calomel today you'll
be sick and nauseated tomorrow; be-
sides, it may salivate you, while if
you take Dodson's Liver Tone you
viii wake up feeling great, full of
ambition and ready for work or play.
1t is harmless. pleasant and safe to
give to children; they like it. .

MEMBERS Of I.

M4ny improvements Antici-.
pated.

Most successful has been the past
season for the Devils Lake, Yacht and
Boat club as vas shown BY reports Of
officers made at the smoker held IN
the club at the lake last night, SO
much, 50 that the members im1nedi-
ately began to plan for winter sports,
and Improvement to the equipment for
the beginning Of next season.
The club members attending the
smoker comfortably filled the !ounp-
ing room on the first floor, and soon
the Toom was filled with cigar and
cigarette smoke. The big fire place,
filled heaping with logs, caught the
spirit Of the occasion and also smoked.
but made up for this objectionable Of
tense with plenty of warmth and
cheer. e
Reports from the officers showed
that the club now has a total mem
berstdp Of 1853 in good standing, se,a
eral having been dropped from the
roll for non-payment Of dues. Bills
for the various functions given during
the summer had all been paid, and at
ter the payment Of some few outstand-
ing bills, there will still be q comfort
able balance in the treasury.
Plans were discussed for securing
two or three Glass G yachts for next
season, and the thought was expressed
that it might be advisable to dispose
Of about three Of the sailing dories
that go to make up the fleet Of the
club at the present time. The build
ing Of q toboggan for use during the
coming winter was also talked off, but
no final action was taken.
Discussion Of the COMING straw
vote to be taken on the question Of
whether the city park board should
take over the Chautauqua grounds
brought forth very decided express
sion in favor Of the city assuming con-
troll Of the grounds on the second
proposition, and it was agreed
that the members work to that end.
Other matters coming up for discus
sion, while not appertaininlg to the
Devils Lake Yacht and Boat club,
showed that the members have a very
decided interest in all that pertains to
the good, and upbuilding of Devils
Lake.
