Deer Killed In New Jercey.
Three hundred and sixty-five deer
were killed Id New Jersey during the
1918 season. This Is quite a number
when you consider that the season is
but four days, one day a week for four
weeks. The weight of the kill amount-
ed to 85 tons.
Moose Art Coming Baok.
Moose are becoming quite plentiful
again In Wyoming; so plentiful that
the gnme commission figures that with-
in a very few years an open season
can be declared. Minnesota Is now
the only state with an open season
for moose.
The Effects of Opiates.
Pl^HAT INFANTS are peculiarly susceptible to opium and its various
preparations, all of which are naroouo, is well known. Even in the
1 smallest doses, if continued, these opiates cause changes in the funo-
Moos and growth of the cells which are likely to beooaM permanent, causing
imbecility, mental perversion, a craving for alcohol or narcotics in later life.
Nervous diseases, such as intractable nervous dyspepsia and lack of staying
powers are a result of dosing with, opiates or narcotics to keep children quiet
In their fafanoy. The rule among physicians is that children should never
receive opiates in the smallest doses far man than a day at a time, and
onlj then if unavoidable.
The administration of Anodynes, Drops. Cordials, Soothing Syrups and
other narcotics to children by any but a physician cannot be too strongly
decried, and the druggist shot)Id not be a party to it. Children who are ill
need the attention of a physician, and it is nothing less than a crime to
them willfully with narootioe.

To Move an Army.
Some Idea of the transportation re-
quirements of a great nation at war
may be drawn from the following: To
move a field army of 80,000 men (two
army corps), a total of 6,229 passen-
ger, baggage, box, stock and flat cars
are needed. These are made up Into
366 trains, a locomotive for every
train.
IT’S NOT YOUR HEART;
IT’S YOUR KIDNEYS
Sidney disease la no respecter of per-
sona. A majority of theklls afflicting
people today can be trace" back to the
kidney trouble.
The kidneys are the most important
organs of the body. They are the fil-
terers of your blood. If the poisons
which aro swept irom the tissues by the
blood are not eliminated through the
kidneys, disease of one form or am.*her
will claim you as a victim......
Kidney disease is usually indicated by
weariness, sleeplessness, nervousness,
despondency, backache, stomach trou-
ble. pain in loins and lotfer abdomen,
gall stones, gravel, rheumatism, sciatica
and lumbago.
All these derangements are nature a
signals that the kidneys need help*
You should use GOLD MEDAL Haar-
lem Oil Capaules immediately. Tba
soothing, healing oil stimulates tha
kidneys, relieves inflammation and de-
stroys the germs which have caused it.
Go-to your druggist today and get a
box of GOLD MEDAL Haarlem Oil
Capsules. In twenty-four hours you
should feel health and vigor returning.
Alter you feel somewhat improved
continue to take one or two capsules
each day, so as to keep the first-class
condition and ward off the danger of
other attacks.
Ask for the original imported GOLD
MEDAL brand. Three sizes. Money re-
funded if they do not help you.
PERISHED WITH THEIR RIDERS HOPE GRANDMA WASN’T THERE
Horses of Custer's Command Died as
Bravely as "J\d the Soldiers
They Carried.
Stories of equine courage and forti-
tude displayed In the late war recall
that of a famous horse, Comapche, sole
survivor of the Custer massacre. Co-
manche was the mount of Captain
Keogh, a relative of General Custer.
He was found shortly after the mass-
acre about a day's Journey from the
battlefield. Suffering from seven bad
wounds and very weak from loss of
blood. It was at first despaired of get-
ting him back to camp. Ilut the sol-
diers.carried him on a litter construct-
ed of strong poles and army blankets
Given the best of treatment, he fully
recovered to receive an honorable dis-
charge.
Outer’s men used the bodies of their
horses for barricade against the In-
dians. As they went Into action on
horseback every horse was saddled, hut
when Comanche was found he was
without even a bridle, so It was sup-
posed that the Indians, believing he
was too badly wounded to recover,
stripped him and left him to die. Every^
other horse was found In the heaps
of the sluln.

some time the operation Is ready to be
repeated. Even the last few drops are
sedulously gathered In.
One pauses to contemplate the grand
conceptions of nature, which adapt the
thirst and the jaw so well to the mod-
ern milk bottle, when—

Tonight! Take Dodson’s Liver Tone!
Better Than Calomel For Liver
Calomel sickens! If bilious, constipated and head-
achy read my guarantee.
Listen to me I Take no more sicken-
ing, salivating calomel when bllioun or
constipated. Don't lose a day’s work!
Calomel is mercury or quicksilver,
which causes necrosis of the bones.
Calomel, when it comes into contact
with aour bile, crashes into It, break-
ing It up. This is when you feel that
awful nausea and cramping. If you
are sluggish and “nil knocked out,” If
your liver Is torpid and bowels consti-
pated or you have headache, dizziness,
coated tongue, If breath is bad or
stomach sour, just take a spoonful of
harmless Dodson's Liver Tone.
Here’s my guarantee—Go to any
drug store and get a bottle of Dodson’s
Liver Tone for a'few cents. Take n
spoonful tonight, and if it doesn’t
straighten you right up and make joo
feel fine and vigorous by morning, 1
want you to go back to the store and
get your money. Dodson’s Liver Tone
is destroying the sale of calomel be-
cause It Is real liver medicine; entire-
ly vegetable, therefore it can not sali-
vate or make yon aide.
I guarantee* that one spoonful of
Dodson’s Liver Tone will put your
sluggish liver to work and clean yonr
bowels of that sour bile and consti-
pated waste which is clogging your
system and making you feel miserable.
I guarantee that a bottle of Dodson's
Liver Tone will keep your entire fam-
ily feeling fine for months. Give it to
your children. It is harmless; doesn’t
gripe and they like Its pleasant taste.

Look for the Best. ,
You will find It less easy to uproot
faults than to choke them by gain-
ing virtues. Do not think of your
faults; still less of others’ faults; in
every person who comes near you
look for what is good anil strong;
honor that; rejoice In it; and your
faults will drop off, like deud leaves,
when their time comes.—Buskin.
Influence on Character.
In the molding of character nothing
matters, so much ns Influence, It Is
the heart of all education, the inner
secret of home and of school. More
than any wit or genius Is the value
there of simple goodness, “moral
thoughtfulness.” Surround a life with
Its rays nnd dormant goodness will not
fail to come to birth. *
