Starts Your Liver Without Making
You Sick, and Can Not
Salivate.
Every druggist in town—your drug
gist and everybody's druggist has no
tioed a falling off in the sale of
calomel. They all give the same
reason. Dodson's Liv r Tone is 1*k
fng its place.
“Calomel is dangerous and people
know it, while Denison's Liver Tone
is p irfectly safe and gives better
results," said a prominent ( local
druggist. Dodson's Liver Ton 1*
personally guaranteed by every
druggist who sells it. A large bottle
costs but, a fewcents, and if it fails
to give easyrelief in f yory case of
liver sluggishness and constipation
you have only to ask for your mom
oy hack.
Dodson's Liver Tone is a pleas-
ant-fasting, pun (y vegetable! rem-
edy, harmless to both children and
adults. Take a spoonful at night
and wake up fueling fine; no bll-
knisess, sick headache, acid stom-
ach or constipated bowels. It does
not gripe or cau*.- inconvenience

Do you want to sell your FARM, your RANCH, your
HOUSE and LOT, or LEASE your land for OIL? Yes,
then you had better see me quick as I have many correspond-
ents who want to buy or trade for land in tracts from 60 to
60,000 acres, which I think will keep the buyers coming my
way. , . ' .
TEXAS
OPPORTUNITY is now great in Erath County.
Land before the drouth sold at from $20 to $60; can now
be bought at from $10 to $30. Cotton then sold at from
6c to 10c; is now selling at from 30c to 32c, or one-half
the investment cost and more than double the investment
profits. Besides this, oil is being developed and Erath *
County promises to become one of the greatest profits to-
day than farm and ranch purposes, or oil investment, I
know nothing that promises greater profits today than
farm and ranch lands in Erath and adjoining counties. If
interested, will thank you to advise me your wants now,
before the ground floor of these great opportunities are
taken up. J. W. MILLER, Farm, Ranch and Oil Lands

tions, that look good to me.
