Cape May Point, N. J.—Did
she or didn’t she? Mrs. Flor-
ence Lindsey, 49, declares she
swallowed her husband’s false
teeth when she playfully put
them in her mouth. X rays fail
to disclose them in her stomach
and she is suffering no pain.
The teeth are .missing—that’s
sure.
New York, N. Y.—Anthrax is
a common disease among ani-
mals. When Sophia Rosen, 17,
desiring to imitate her wealthy
sisters, purchased a cheap fur
collar and wore it, she contract-
ed the disease from the fur.
She died a few days later, the
third victim this season of the
same disease acquired in the
same way.
York, P.—People have avoided
the old “haunted” house of S.
B. Manifold. Many times dur-
ing 15 years a mysterious buz
zing of ghosts lias been heard
there. Recently workmen
wrecked the house, and, after
they had battled with the ghostly
bees, those who were unstung
returned to find 200 pounds of
honey stored in the walls.
Bellvue, la.—Two years ago a
man was killed on a railroad. A
friend believed the body to he
that of Matt McAllister. The
body was exumed and wife,
friends and relatives identified
it, even to physical defects.
The Court of Honor paid his
widow $1,000 insurance, and she
bought a home. The other day
Matt McAllister turned up well
and hearty. He had been work-
ing on a ranch in Canada and
knew nothing pf the report of
liia death.

FOB NASTY CALOMEL
Starts Your Liver Without Mak-
ing You Sick and Cannot
Salivate.
Every druggist in town—your
druggist and everybody’s drug
gist has noticed a 1 ailing off in
the sale of calomel. They all
give the same reason. Dodson's
Liver Tone is taking its place.
“Calomel is dangerous and
people know it. while Dodson’s
Liver Tone is perfectly safe and
gives better results,” said a
prominent local druggist. Dod
son’s Liver Tone is personally
guaranted by every druggist
who sells it. A large bottle
costs 50 cents and if it fails to
give easy relief in every case of
liver sluggishness and constipa
tion, you have only to ask for
your money back.
Dodson’s Liver Tone is a
pleasant tasting, purely vege-
table remedy, harmless to both
children and adults, Take a
spoonful at night and wake up
feeling fine; no biliousness, sick
headache, acid stomach or con-
stipated bowels. It doesn’t
gripe or cause inconvenience all
the next day like violent calomel.
Take a dose of calomel today and
tomorrow you will feel weak,
sick and nauseated. Don’t lose
a days work! Take Dodson’s
Liver Tone instead and feel fine,
full of vigor and ambition.—Ad-
cnt. 5
