 When you feel bilious, sluggish, con- stipated and all knocked out and be- lieve you need dose of dangerous cal omel just remember that your druggist sells for few cents large bottle of Dodson's Liver Tone. which is entirely vegetable and pleasant to take and is . perfect substitute for calomel. It is guaranteed to start your liver without stirring you up inside, and can not salivate.
 Don't take calomel! It can not be trusted any more than a leopard or a wildcat. Take Dodson's Liver Tone which straightens you right up and makes you feel fine. Give it to the children because 1t is perfectly harm less and doesn't gripe.-Adv.

until the southern farmers who par

there would be no market fer stock, in
carrying out this plan, for a year at

plan be known in the north that the
stock might be available when required.
Mr.. Arnett said the project provides
for cooperative live stock associations

would be composed Of men who are ex-
