Don't Lose a Day’s Work! If Your Liver Is Sluggish or Bowels
Constipated Take “Dodson’s Liver Tone.”—It’s Fine!
You’re bilious! Your liver is slug-
gish! You feel lazy, dizzy and all
knocked out. Your head is dull, your
tongue is coated; breath; bad; stomach
sour and bowels constipated. But don’t
take salivating cafomel. It make's you
sick,-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 cramp-
ing.
If you want to enjoy the nicest, gen-
tlest liver and bowel cleansing you
ever experienced just take a spoonful
of harmless. Dodson’s Liver Tone. 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 mak®
you sick.
Dodson’s Liver Tone is real liver
medicine. You’ll know it next morn-
ing because you will wake up feeling
fine, your liver will be working, your
headache and dizziness gone, your
stomach will be sweet and your bowels
regular. You will feel like working';
you’ll be cheerful; full of vigor and
ambition.
Dodson’s Liver- Tone is entirely
vegetable, therefore harmless and can-
not salivate. Give it to your children!
Millions of people are using Dodson’s
Liver Tone instead of dangerous cal-
omel now. Your druggist will tell yon
that the sale of calomel is almost
stopped entirely here.—Adv.

Mexican bandits occurred Sunday
witbin forty miles of Laredo. A large
party of Mexican bandits said to have
been In charge of Luis de la Rosa ap-
peared on the Coleman and Johnson
ranch near Palafox, thirty-five miles
northeast of Laredo,, on the American
side of the river, and began rounding
up a large herd of horses, the bandits
driving the horses toward a corral.
Two American cowboys, George Con-
over and Arthur Myers, who were on
the ranch, together with a Mexican
cowboy, dashed to the scene of the
roundup, the Americans going by a
roundabout way and the Mexican in
smother direction. Attention was at-
tracted by the Americans and the ban-
dits took out in pursuit of them and
the Mexican succeeded in stampeding
the horses. The two American cow-
boys were finally captured and taken
to the Mexican side and held hostages
until Sunday night, when they were
released and came to the American
side of the river. The Americans
state that they were merely held /pris-
oners, but were not mistreated.
San Antonio, Tex.—Major General
Frederick Funston announced Sunday
that the' most critical stage of the
Mexican situation had been passed.
The significance of this announce-
ment was heightened by a second an-
nouncement to the effect that Briga-
dier General Mann, commander of the
Laredo patrol district, had held, a con-
ference with General Alfredo Ricault,
Carranza commander of border forces
between Nuevo Laredo and Mata-
moros, in which Ricault agreed to send
a. force on the trail of Louis de la
Rosa, commander of a bond of Villista
bandits that has been raiding ranches
on the Mexican border and threatening
an invasion of Texas.
Though General Funston did not say
so in exact words, he implied that the
passing of the crisis -was due to the
Mann-RJcault conference.
It was- explained by army officers
that the crisis referred to by General
Funston had been produced by three
factors, namely, De la Rosa’s threaten-
ed invasion, Carranza's* reoem*.,^
and General Funston’s determination
to send a third expedition into Mexico

that the conference with General Ri-
cault had been held and a satisfactory
agreement reached.
Anti-American demonstrations in
Northern Mexico continue, according
to official advices this week, particu-
larly in the states of Chihuahua, San
Luis Potosi and Nuevo Leon and, al-
though the manifestations thus far
have been confined mostly to speech-
making, consular agents have reported
that the temper of the people appears
such that any eventuality might be
possible.

Not Available This Year.
Rev. W. H. Book, pastor of the
Tabernacle Christian church of Colum-
bus, is telling a story told him by a
schoolteacher in a county not far from
Bartholomew. The teacher and the
township trustee were talking over
plans for the annual school commence-
ment, The question of a speaker for
commencement arose.
“Let's get this here Rip Van Win-
kle to make the speech,” suggested
the township trustee.
“Who?” asked the surprised
teacher.
“Why, this here Rip Van Winkle,”
the trustee replied. “I’ve heard a
good deal about him and I thought
maybe he might make a right smart
speech.”
The teacher had to tell the trustee
that Rip was not available for com-
mencement addresses this year.

Big Sturgeon on Trot Line.
~ A 400-pound fish was caught in the
Sacramento river by Eugene Barion,
the “musical fisherman.” Barion is
called the “musical fisherman” be-
cause his 200-foot trot line stretched
across the Sacramento at Middle
creek is equipped with a chime of
twelve Swiss bells—one for each line
dangling from the main line with
spoon attached.
Barion’s catch was "a sturgeon, a
big fish that measured seven feet with-
out the head. When the sturgeon
grabbed tho hook every one of the
twelve bells rang a clatter that awak-
ened him from his afternoon nap in
his cabin ashore.
The “musical fisherman” was un-
able to land bis big catch alone. He
had to call in the assistance of two
neighbors. Barion’s catch netted him

they are used for dressings.—Youth’s

every possible aid. In addition border
agents have been instructed to urge
those seeking to return to Mexico to
stay on the American side of the bor-
der for the present.
Officials at Washington show con-
siderable uneasiness over the situa-
tion. Statements from Americans
reaching the border and also from con-
sular agents in Mexico have' indicated
that, while General Carranza’s forces
were trying to overcome the demon-
strators, their control was not to be de-
pended upon entirely in some districts.
The agitators, some officials fear, may
arouse public opinion to a point where
an attempt to expel General Persh-
ing’s men by force may be undertaken.
Army officials have no fear for the
safety of the American expedition.
The spread of the anti-American agita-
tion may delay the reply to General
Carranza’s note demanding recall of
the American troops.

stones hurled at the foreign club in
the belief that it was an American in-
stitution.
