the whole affair before the Canadian
consul for this district.

pants, chased him down the street and
then locked min. up in Jail and kept

Of Calomel.

Calomel loses you a dayl You
know what calomel is. It's mercury;
quicksilver. Caomel is dangerous.
1t crashes into sour bile like dyna-
mite, cramping and sickening you.
Calomel attacks the bones and
should never be put into your sys-
tenn.
When you feel bilious, sluggish,
constipated and all knocked out and
believe you need dose of dangerous
calomel Just remember that your
druggist sells for a few cents a large
bottle OF Dodson's Liver Tone, which
Is entirely vegetable and pleasant to
take and IS a perfect substitute for
calomel. 1t Is guaranteed to start
your liver without stirring you up
inside, and can not salivate.
Don't take calomel! 1t can not be
trusted any more than leopard or a
wildcat. Take Dodson's Liver Tone,
which straightens you right up and
makes you feel fine. Give II TO the
children because II is perfectly
harmless and doesn't gripe.--Advt.
