Mf. DOUSOn, the Liver IOne'' Man,
Responsible for Change for

Every druggist in town has noticed
great falling off in the sale of calo-

Dodson's Liver Tone is taking IT'S
place.
"Calomel is dangerous and people
know it." Dodson's Liver Tone is
personally guaranteed by every drug
gist who sells it. A large bottle
doesn't cost very much but if it fails
TO give easy relief in every case Of
liver sluggishness and constipation.
just ask for your money back.
Dodson's Liver Tone is a pleasant
tasting, purely vegetable remedy,
harmless to both children and adults
Take a spoonful at night and wake
up feeling fine; no biliousness, sick
headache, acid stomach or constipat-
ed bowels. It doesn't grippe or cause
Inconvenience all the next day like
violent calomel. Take a dose of cal
omel today and tomorrow you will
feel weak, sick and nauseated. Don't

TAKE STOCK OF YOUR HEALTH
Winter Brings Many Ills to Pale,
Oyerworkei People.
TAKE PEPTO-MANGAN.

Fortify Your System-Good Blood
Will Give You New Strength
To Keep Well.
If you feel the least bit run down,
not necessarily sick, but tired and
blue and sort of down and out, it
shows plainly that your power of re-
sistance is low.
1t is dangerous to go around that
way. You don't want to do it.
Make no mistake about it when
you feel yourself slipping into lazy
habits, getting Indifferent to the
things you naturally like-no energy,
no vigor, always tired-it is time to
look out. 1t may not mean that YOU
are SEX or that you will be. But
there are diseases that would have
an easy time of it with your system
when your blood has no fighting
qualities.
You want to be well and keep well
and feel strong. If you build up the
quality of your blood by taking
Pepto-Mangan you will be in trim to
fight off winter ills. 1t has just the
right ingredients to build your blood
up with rich, red corpuscles.
: Pepto-Mangan gives your blood the
qualities it needs to pick you up and
start you off on healthy basis.
You will notice the difference soon
after you start taking it. You will
have better color, better feeling, and
more energy.
You can take It in liquid or tablet
form as you prefer. Both have the
same ingredients. But be sure you
get the genuine Guides Pepto-Man-
gan. Ask for it by that name
Guides Pepto-Mangan,' and be sure
the full name is on the package.
