■*•*» jour liver without making
you dtk and can not
■alivat*.
Every druggist in town—your
druggist and everybody’s druggist
has noticed s great falling off in Hie
•ale of calomel. They all give the
•am* 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 re-
sults,” said a prominent local drug-
gist. Dodson’s Liver Tone is per-
sonally guaranteed by every drug-
gist who sells it. A large bottle
costs but a few cents, and if it fails to
give easy relief in every case of liver
sluggishness and constipation, you
have only to ask for your money
back.
Dodson’s Liver Tone is a pleasant-
tasting, purely vegetable remedy,
harmless to both children and adults.
Take a spoonful at night and wake
up feeling fine; no biliousness, sick
headache, acid stomach or consti-
pated bowels. It doesn’t gripe or
cause inconvenience all the next
day like violent calomel.

You recklesn men and women who
are pestered with corns' and who have
at least once a week invited an awful
death from lockjaw or lilood poison
are now told by a Cincinnati authority
to use a drug called freezone, which
the moment a few drops arc applied
to any corn or callus the soreness Is re-
lieved and soon the «yitire corn or cal-
lus, root and all, lifts off with the fin-
gers.
Freezone dries the moment it is ap-
plied, and simply shrivels the corn or cal-
lus without inflaming or even irritating
the surrounding tissue or skii^ A small
bottle of freezone will cost very little
at any of the drug stores, but will posi-
tively ri<’ one’s feet of every hard or
soft corn or hardened callus. If your
druggist hasn’t any freezone he can get
it at any wholesale drug house for you.

Every man, woman, boy and girl
can help Our Country in this war
—even tho’ some do not go to
the. trenches. Buy a Liberty
Bond, War Stamps, or contribute
to the’ Red Cross and Y. M. C. A.
funds. Eat what food is requir-
ed, but don’t be a glutton.
Lets be mindful of our country’s
needs; fit ourselves to the new
conditions and make allowances
for many things we would not
have tolerated a few years ago.
We are all working to a common
end and to win this war all will
have part, sacrifice to make and
a patriotic duty to perform.
