STOP CALOMEL! TAKE
DODSON'S LIVER TONE
New Discovery! Takes Place of Dangerous Calomel—ll Puts Your
Liver To Work Without Making You Sick—Eat Anything—
It Can Not Salivate—Don't Lose a Day’s Work

mel and I want every reader of this paper
to try a bottle and if it doesn’t straighten you
up better and quicker than salivating calomel
just go back to the store and get your money.
1 guarantee that one spoonful of Dodson’s
Liver Tone will put your sluggish liver to
work and clean your thirty feet of bowels of
the sour bile and constipation poison which
is clogging your system and making you feel
miserable.
I guarantee that one spoonful of this
harmless liquid liver medicine will relieve the
headache biliousness coated tongue ague
malaria sour stomach or any other distress
caused by a torpid lixer as quickly as a dose
of vile nauseating calomel besides it will
Lurk.
"Thrre is no such thing ns luck.” re-
marked the severely practical person. ••You
must depend on your own intelligehce.”

not make you sick or keep you from a day’s
work. I want to see a bottle of this wonder-
ful liver medicine in every home in the South.
Calomel is poison—it’s mercury—it attacks
the bones often causing rheumatism. Calo
mel is dangerous. It sickens—while iny Dod-
son's Liver Tone is safe pleasant and harm-
less. Eat anything afterwards because it can
not salivate. Give it to the children because
it doesn't upset the stomach or shock the
liver. Take a spoonful tonight and wake
up feeling fine and ready for a full day's
work.
Get a bottle! Try it! If it doesn't do
exactly what I say tell your dealer to hand
your money back. Every -druggist and store
keeper in the South knows me and knows
of my wonderful discovery of a medicine
that takes the place of dangerous calomel.
ASKS NEWSPAPER MEN
FOR NICE BABY NAME
Worried Woman Calls Light
for Advice in Important
Matter.
“Hello is thig the Light office?”
came a worried voice over the tele-
phone.
”Yes’m” answered a reporter.
•‘Anything we can do for you?”
”1 want to find a nice name for
my baby” was her surprising re-
joinder and with hardly a pause she
c< ntinued:
“But I don’t tare for any of the
names given in the bark of the dic-
tionary. I’ve looked them over un-
til I’m almost sick.”
The reporter suggested that she
try the public Libra?/. where a com
plete list of names suitable for ba-
bieg of any description should be on
fi’e
Statistics show that there is more
trouble connected with getting a
Christian name for a child than
there is in getting a marriage li-
cense. The difficulty is largely due
to the fact that so many relatives
have to be taken into consideration.
Uncle John on one side of the fam-
ily deems it only fitting and proper
that the boy should be named after
Llm while Uncle William of the oth-
er branch holds similar views re-
garding the fitness of having his
“monaker” carried by the innocent
infant. Usually a compromise is re-
quired to please both interests ami
the boy blossoms forth as "John
William” or vice versa.
Even after the name is con-
ferred. the father and mother us-
ually have to apologize to one side
of the family or the other —and the
only way to make amends is to have
another baby. Sometimes the par-
ents are permitted to follow their
own desires in naming the last child.

fer no remorse?”—Boston Transcript.

MG SCHOOL
Plan to Have Summer Camp
in Canada For Training
Aviators.
TENTATIVE OFFER IS MADE
If More British Airmen Are
Called. School Will Be
Needed.
The summer camp of the Stinson
। Flying School of San Antonio may
be located in Ottawa Canada next
May to train young Canadians for
the British aviation corps. Miss
Katherine Stinson now considered
I the foremost woman flyer of the
i country returned Thursday night
from a trip to the north and east
and to Canada where she looked
over the conditions in various cities
with a view to establishing a sum-
। liter camp for the school.
About a dozen young men from
Canadian cities have taken courses
at the Stinson school in San Antonio
preparing to answer the call that
. tame from England for trained avia-
.‘tors. <>n a request from authorities
in Ottawa. Canada. Miss Stinson vis-
i ited that city while she was away
from San Antonio and received a
j tentative proposition for the location
of Div summer school there; The
* "royal rifle field’’ at <lttawa a tract
• of land which has been used for rifle
1 practice for many years was offered
by authorities to Miss Stinson for the
site of the summer school.
Proposition Is Tentative.
The proposition is only tentative.
I however. In the event a call comes
I from England for more trained avia-
-1 tors the school will be needed. In
the event the European war situation
I takes a turn in the meantime
: which will make it unnecessary for
I more experienced fliers to be sent
from Canada the training school
: v ill not bo established there. In that
'case. Miss Stinson has at ranged
establish the summer school in Chi-
cago at a site on the south side.
Leaving San Antonio December

‘Plainfield N. J.. Toronto and Ot-
I tawa.
In Boston she viewed the all-steel
aeroplane which has been perfected
lat the Sturtevant factory by Lieu-
' tenant Byron Q. Jones the first ar-
I my aviator to do the loop-the-loop.
i The frame and all parts of the ma-
i (bine are of steel excep* the cov-
‘ (ring which is of linen canvas riv-
; eted by steel bolts to the frame and
| made waterpropf and air-tight. A
passenger’s seat is located near the
tip of each wing for "sharp-shoot-
ers” and “look-outs” when the niu-
• bine is used in military maneuvers. ।
The aeroplane carries a 140-horse-
. power motor and is one of the most
powerful ever built. Miss Stinson
' rav It in operation in the air.
j "To bo very expressix e. it is 'some’
| aeroplane” said Miss Stinson Friday
morning.
Views Now Planes.
Miss Stinson made a trip to Plain- I
field. N. J. to seo the new aern-
' plane being perfected by the Pack-|
ard Motor Car Company and equip- i
ped with a twelve-cylinder “twin- |
six” motor. This machine is anoth- j
or innovation In the aviation world
but it was not completed and she
did not see it in the air.
"The people of the north and eas*
are intensely interested in aviation i
and hundreds of laymen not con-
nected with the army or interested

Hon as a science. Many who can j

«.be said. "Popular inter* st in avia-
