In the Piano community, waB born

REMEMBER YOUR LAST
DOSE OF CALOMEL?
Yon Probably Recall the After-Ef-
fects of the Calomel More Than
You Do the Sickness You
Took It For.
You don't have to go through
this again.
Next time your liver gets sluggish
and inactive, we suggest that you
go to Smith Drug Co's. store for a
bottle of Dodson's Liver Tone, a veg-
etable liquid that will start your liv-
er as surely as calomel ever did and
with none of the after-effects of cal-
omel. It is absolutely harmless both
to children and adults and demands
no restriction of habits or diet.
Smith Drug Co. guarantees Dod-
son's Liver Tone to take the place
of calomel, and will refuiwl your
money if it falla in your case.

Revival to
Be In August
(Contributed)
The First Christian church of thlB
city has made its preliminary ar-
rangements for its annual revival
meeting. This meeting will extend
over a period of one month and will
be held in August by Rev. J. B.
Been. Mr. Been le one of the lead-
ing evangelists of the Christian
church. The campaign to be waged
by him here will be thorough and
well organized In Its endeavor to
bring about the best results to the
spiritual life of the church and
community.
A more critical time han never
come Into the life of the people than
now. Legislative halls are filled
with unwleldly matter, politics are
in a turmoil and the church ap-
proaches a crisis. Yet some stand
aside and look complacently on while
others just busy themselves with
providing bread and meat to feed a
perishing body, bedecking It at the
varlutiB seasons with the colors In
vogue and thus pass on devoid of all
knowledge of the demand the world
puts upon them In the great pro-
gram of life. From this latter con-
dition of mind and heart our com-
munity and our churches suffer as
few plnces on the map. Awake
thou that Bleepeth.

take Cardui.
I used it about one week, before I saw much change.
Now, the severe pain, that had been in my side for years,
has gone, and I don't suffer at all. I am feeling better than
in a long time, and cannot speak too highly of Cardui."
