You Need Not Succumb
To That “All-Run Down” Feeling
to put it in ship-shape for the com-
ing summer..
Just now the best investment you
can make is to take a few bottles of
S. S. S., the great blood purifier and
tonic. This purely vegetable remedy
has been in general use for more
than fifty years, and thousands use it
regularly every Spring. It has no equal
for thoroughly cleansing the blood of
all impurities, improving the appetite
and toning up and giving renewed life
and vigor to the whole body. Go to
your drugstore and get a bottle to-
day and start early on the important
work of putting your system in tip-
Simply Cleanse Your Blood of
Its Sluggishness So Preva-
lences Springtime. *
Possibly are one °f the thou-
sands who just at this season find
that you are losing your appetite,
your system gets weaker day by day,
you are easily tired, and a general
good-for-nothing, run-down feeling
seems to pervade your whole body.
This condition is very general at
the beginning of Spring, and is na-
ture’s appeal for help in preparing the
system for the change in seasons.
Your blood is sluggish and impover-
ished, impurities begin to clog up the
arteries, and your system needs a
general purifying and housecleaning

CALOMEL DYNAMITES YOUR LIVER!
MAKES YOU SICK AND SALIVATES
“Dodson’s Livsr Tone” Starts Your Liver
Better uWlalomefand You Don’t
Lose a Dai's Work
Liven up your sluggish liver! Feel
fine and cheerful; make your work a
pleasure; be vigorous and full of ambi-
tion. But take no nasty, dangerous
calomel because it makes you sick and
you may lose a day’s work.
Calomel is mercury or quicksilver
•which causes necrosis of the bones.
Calomel crashes into sour bile like
dynamite, breaking it up. That’s when
you feel that awful nausea and cramping.
Listen to me! If you want to enjoy
the nicest, gentlest liver and bowel
cleansing you ever experienced just take
• spoonful of harmless Dodson’s Liver
Tone tonight. Your druggist or dealer
sells you a 50 cent bottle of Dodson’s
Liver Tone under my personal money-
back guarantee that each spoonful will
clean your sluggish liver better than a
dose of nasty calomel and that it won’t
make you sick.
Dodson’s Liver Tone is real liver
medicine. You’ll know it next morning
because you will wake up feeling fine,
your liver will be working; headache
and dizziness gone; stomach will be
sweet and bowels regular.
Dodson’s Liver Tene is entirely vege-
table, therefore harmless and can not
salivate. G-ive it to your children.
Millions of people are using Dodson’s
Liver Tone instead of dangerous calomel
now. ‘ Your druggist will tell you that
the sale of Calomel ia almost stopped
entirely hew-

GERMANY INTENDED
TO ATTACK U. S.
GERARD SAYS SHE WOULD NOT
ONLY DESTROY AMERICA, BUT
ALSO MONROE DOCTRINE.
From the speech of James W. Ger-
ard, former United States ambassa-
dor to Germany, at Harrisburg Thurs-
day, April 5.
The President, before he was forced
by Germany to deliver that able and
patriotic address before congress the
other day, exhausted every effort to
maintain peace and keep this country
out of war. The President has been
superlatively patient. I know, for I
have been on the “inside.” I know
that if Germany should win this war
the first thing she would do would
be to attack us.
The German people have been
taught to hate us. In this country we
do not get the facts about Germany or
German sentiment. The only German
news agencies we may rely upon are
the overseas and the transocean agen-
cies, which are controlled by the
Krupps. Need I say more? Von Tir-
pitz has openly declared in an inter-
view that Germany should make war
with the United States in the event
of her becoming victorious in the pres-
ent conflict, in order to meet the war
expenses she has already incurred.
Germany has her eyes on the West-
ern Hemisphere; make no mistake
about that. She would not only de-
stroy us, but the Monroe doctrine. Be
sure of that. I say this that I may
offer salve to the consciences of those
who would oppose the President’s
course.—Philadelphia North Ameri-
can, April 7, 1917.

BONHAM YOUNG
LADY HONORED
MISS ANNA DOUGLAS EVANS
TAKES PART IN EL PASO
MUSICALE.
Ability does not seem to relegate
itself to years and in the words of
some one else, “talent is inborn.” This
was doubly proven last night at the
musicale given by Joseph M. Evans at
his studio on Montana street when
Anna Douglas Evans, pianist of the
tender age of ten years, played such
difficult selections as Mozart’s “Fan-
tasia in D Minor” and “Spinning
Song,” by Ferber. The little pianist
who has the most fetching golden
curls, and the sweetest of party man-
ners, was not quite so sure of herself
at first, in the large audience. But
Mr. Evans only had to tell her it was
“all right,” and place her music be-
ANNA DOUGLAS EVANS.
fore her for her to start off playing
with the greatest assurance and be-
havior. “Barchetta,” by Neven, was
interpreted with unusual skill and in-
telligence. For an encore she played
“The East Indian Princess,” by Smith,
which was exceedingly musical.
The young pianist conquered the
audience at once with her really un-
usual art. Although young and fra
gile her strength is remarkable, and
she undoubtedly has before her a bril-
liant career.
Miss Evans came here with her par-
ents, Mr. and Mrs. A. P. Evans, from
Bonham.—El Paso Herald.
A THOROUGH TEST
One to Convince the Most Skeptical
Bonham Reader.
The test of time is the test that
counts,
Doan’s Kidney Piils have made their
reputation by effective action.
The following case is typical.
Bonham residents should be con-
vinced.
The testimony is confirmed—the
prof complete.
Testimony like this cannot be ig-
nored.
Mrs. L. J. Majors, 816 W. 10th
street, Bonham, Texas, says: “About
two years ago I began to have a con-
stant pain in my back and hips. The
kidney secretions were scanty and
painful in passage. 1 used roan’s
Kidney Pills and one box cured me,of
the trouble.”
The above statement was given on
April 14, 1908, and on April 9, 1915,
Mrs. Majors said: “I gladly confirm
my former endorsement of Doan’s
Kidney Pills. They helped me a great
deal when I used them.”
Price 50c, at all dealers. Don’t
simply ask for a kidney remedy—get
Doan’s Kidney Pills—the sam? that
Mrs. Majors had. Foster-Milburn

Spring.
Spring is looked upon by many as
the most delightful season of the year
but this cannot be said of the rheu-
matic. The cold and damp weather
brings on rheumatic pains which are
anything but pleasant. They can be
relieved, however, by applying Cham-
berlain’s Liniment. Obtainable every-

Safe Medicine for Children.
“Is it safe?” is the first question to
be considered when buying cough med-
icine for children. Chamberlain’s
Cough Remedy has long been a favor-
ite with mothers of young children as
it contains no opium or other narcotic,
and may be given to a child as confi-
dently as to an adult. It is pleasant
to take, too, which is of great import-
ance when a medicine must be given
to young children. This remedy is
most effectual in relieving coughs,
colds and croup. Obtainable every-
where.

The readers of this paper will be
pleased to learn that there is at least
one dreaded disease that science has
been able to cure in all its stages, and
that is catarrh. Catarrh being greatly
influenced by constitutional conditions
requires constitutional treatment.
Hall’s Catarrh Cure is taken internally
and acts thru the Blood on the Mucous
Surfaces of the System thereby de-
stroying the foundation of the disease,
giving the patient strength by building
up the constitution and assisting na-
ture in doing its work. The proprie-
tors have so much faith in the curative
powers of Hall’s Catarrh Cure that
they offer One Hundred Dollars for any
case that it fails to cure. Send for list

Why Constipation Injures.
The bowels' are the natural sewer-
age system of the body. When they
become obstructed by constipation a
part of the poisonous matter which
they should carry off is absorbed into
the system, making you feel dull and
stupid, and interfering with the di-
gestion and assimilation of food. This
condition is quickly relieved by Cham
berlain’s Tablets. Obtainable every-
where.

Signatures.
The signature is something a man
writes at the end of his letters so no-
body will know who they’re from.
Some business men who are really
interested in knowing who writes to
them, employ signature ferrets. That
is, bright young men who take the
wild signature chase it to its lair, lash
it into a fury and force it to divulge
its identity.
Then there are other methods. Some-
times the ferret is able to nail a sig-
nature’s owner by comparing it with
the printed list of directors, or man-
agers or something like that printed
at the top of the letterhead. But this
is not often possible.
Some folks have signatures and
others write their names*
—A new shipment just came in to replenish our former as-
sortment which sold so quickly.
—These new fabrics will make up into just YOUR kind of
dresses—the ones that look most attractive even after they
have been tubbed dozens of times.
—The new patterns and colors are delightful—they are
worth a special trip of inspection to the store, even though
you don’t need any wash goods right away. But we know
when you see them and compare our prices, that your judg-
ment of beauty and sense of economy will prompt immediate
purchases.

That beautiful, even shade of dark,
glossy hair can only be had by brewing
a mixture of Sage Tea and Sulphur.
Your hair is your charm. It makes or
mars the face. When, it fades, turns
gray or streaked, just an application or
two of Sage and Sulphur enhances its
appearance a hundredfold.
Don’t bother to prepare the mixture;
you can get' this famous old recipe im-
proved'by the addition of other ingredi-
ents for 50 cents a large bottle, all ready
for use. It is called Wyeth’s Sage and
Sulphur Compound. This can^always be
depended upon to bring back the natural
color and lustre of your hair.
Everybody uses “Wyeth’s” Sage and
Sulphur Compound now because it dark-
ens so naturally and evenly that nobody
can tell it has been applied. You simply
dampen a sponge or soft brush with it
and draw this through the hair, taking
one small strand at a time; by morning
the gray hair has disappeared, and after
another application it becomes beauti-
fully dark and appears glossy and lus-
trous. This ready-to-use preparation is
a delightful toilet requiste for those who
desire dark hair and a youthful appear-
ance. It is not intended for the cure,
mitigation or prevention of disease. ~
