DODSON WOULD STOP
SALE OF CALOMEL,
SAYS CALOMEL is MERCURY
AND ACTS LIKE DYNAMITE
ON YOUR LIVER.

Dodson is making a hard fight
against calomel in the South. Every
druggist has noticed a great falling
off 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
results" said prominent local
druggist Dodson's Liver Tone is
personally guaranteed by every
druggist. 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 spoonful at night and wake
up feeling fine; no biliousness, sick
headache, acid stomach or constipat-
ed bowels. 1t doesn't gripe or
cause inconvenience all the next
day like violent calomel Take
lose of calomel today and tomorrow
YOU will feel weak, sick and nauseat-
ed. Don't lose a days work! Take
Dodson's Liver Tone instead and
feel fine, full of vigor and ambition.

WANTS MORE MONEY FOR
CITY'S FEDERAL BUILDING

Representative T. U. Sisson and
Senator Pat Harrison last Friday APP
peared before the Senate appropria-
tions committee to argue for an in
crease Of the appropriation for the
already authorized Federal building
at Water Valley. The original ap-
preparation of $45,00O.O0 has been
found to be inadequate, owing tothe
increased cost of building materials,
and the revised estimates call for
$4,000 more to complete the build
ing according to the plans furnished
by the architects office at Washing
ton. Favorable action is expected,
as the committee seemed to realize
the force of the argument for an ad-
ditional appropriation.
