CALOMEL DYNAMITES
A SLUGGISH LIVER
Crashes into sour bile making you
sick and you lose a days work.

Calomel salivates! It's mercury.
Calomel acts like dynamite on a
sluggish liver. When calomcl comes
into contact with sour bile it crashes
into it, causing cramping and nau-
sea.
If you feel bilious, headachy, con-
stipatcd and all knocked out, just go
to your druggist and get bottle Of
Dodson's Liver Tone for few cents
which is harmless vegetable substi-
tute for dangerous calomel. Take
a spoonful and if it doesn't start
YOUR liver and straighten you up bet
ter than nasty calomel and without
making you sick, you just go 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
will wake up feeling great, full of
ambition and ready for work or play
It's harmless, pleasant and safe tc

some time afterward, and like as not,
he did not want to eat either. They
were therefore very valuable.
1t Is very hard to get matches IN
the camps. and when any prisoner
does get hold Of one. it is made to last
Il long time. Here Is how we make n
match last. Some one gives up the
sleeve of his coat and the match Ia
carefully lit. and the coat sleeve
burned to crisp. Then we take q
button from our coats--the buttons
are brass with two holes in them
pass a shoestrtug through the holes,
Knot the ends. and with the button In
the center Of the string. buzz 1t around
as you have seen boys do, with the
string over both hands, moving the
hands together and apart until the
button revolves very fast.
We then put a piece Of flint against
the crispcd cloth. and buzz the button
against 1t until spark makes the
crisp glow. and from this we would
light our bark cigarettes. l do not
think any man in the world could in
hale one Of these bark cigarettes ::

CHAPTER XXI.
A Visit From MIR. Gerard.

Late that night we arrived at Dull
men, WcStphalia. We were -rOusted
out OF the carriages, mustered on the
platform, counted, then drilled through
the streets. In spite OF the lateness.
the streets were pretty well filed with
people, and they zig-zagged us through
all the streets they could, so that all
the people would have a chance to see
the crazy men, as they called us. Most
or the people were women, and as soon
us they saw us coming, they began
singing the "Watch on the Rhine" or
some other German song, and it was
funny to see windows opening and fat
fraus. with nisht-caps on, sticking
their heads out of the windows. They
would give us a quick Once-over, and
| pipe up like boatswain: "Schweln-
Observation-Disclosures am Rhein"
all kinds Of things and all mixed up.
SO we gave them "Tipperary" and
"Fack Up Your Troubles" and
showed them how to sing Our guards
had no ear for music and tried to stop
us, but though they knocked several
men down. we did not stop until we
had finished the song. Then, after we
had admitted to each other that we
were not downhearted. we shut up.
We would have done so, anyway, be-
cause by this time we were on the out
skirtssOf the town. and we needed oil
the breath we had. The road we were
on was just one long sheet of Ice, and
we could hardly walk more than four
steps without slipping and falling. My
shoes had wooden soies, and 1t was
just one bang after another, with the
Ice and myself trying to see which
could hit the hardest. Every time we
fefl-smash came a rifle over the
back.

to some Of the fellows that I was go-
Ing to sit down and rest, and they said
they would also. So we dropped out
and waited until the guards behind

crabill Back from California.

Fl. w. Crabill, who for many years
with his family resided on dry
land farm south of town, but who
has been spending the past few
months in and around Long Beach,
Cali, returned to Holly last Friday
night. He had expected to remain
there for the winter but returned
here. at this time to look after busi-
ness matters. Mr.. Crabill says that
there were 10000 tourists in Los
Angeles during the month of Sep
tember, 10000 during October and
$4,000 are. expected during NOvem-
Der. He says the climate is fine out
there and that there seems to be
an abundance of employment for
all who wish to work, at good wag-
es but that living costs are ex-
tremely high. He advises those
who are comfortably situated here
in Colorado to remain on the
ground that opportunities are fully
as great if not greater, and that
while fine climate is good thing
one cannot live on climate alone.
Mr.. Crabill is looking after his land
interests south of town.

The Winters Entertaiers gave the.

The attendance was perhaps the
largest which has marked the at

New Machine to Load Beets.

A beet loader has been invented
by F. s. Bennett, well known
farmer of the Holbrook district be
low Rocky Ford, and it is expected
to work a greater improvement in
the removal of sugar beets from the
field The device consists of a hop
per-like arrangement with a revolv-
ing. latticework bottom set at con-
venient height from the ground, in
to which the .beets are thrown.
Thence they are carried on an end
less canvas belt, which lifts them
into the wagon box In this move
ment most of the adhering dirt is
shaken off. The motive power for
the loader is furnished by gasoline
engine and the whole machine is
mounted on wheels and can easily
be hauled by team from one beet
pile to another.-La Junta Tribune
