clean your Bluggish liver better
than a dose of nasty calomel and
that it wonT make you sick.
Dodson’s Liver Tone is real liv-
er medicine. You'll know it the
next morning because you will wake
up feeling flue, your liver will be
working; headache and 'dizziness
gone; stomach will be sweet and
bowels regular.

vegetable, therefore haruiles* and
can pot salivate. Give it to your
childreu. Millions of people are
using Dodson's Liver Tone instead

HEROES IN THE TRENCHES.
Paris, May 27.—These men in
the trenches must keep incessant
vigilance against sudden attacks 'by
the enemy. The men who serve the
artillery fire day and night often
tinies at an enemy that is never
seen.
Medical science will save more
lives this year than war will take,
no matter how terrifically murder-
ous that war may he. Then too,
the food supply of the soldiers must
be wholesome. Living iu the open
air, the men are able to digest
hard-tack with great relish. Na-
poleon said: ’’An army fight# on its
stomach.’* A man with a weak
stomach is pretty sure to be a
poor fighter. It is difficult —al-
most impossible—for anyone, man
or woman. If digestion is poor, to
succeed in business or socially—-or
to enjoy life. In tablet or liquid
form Dr. Pierce’s Golden Medical
Discovery helps wesgk stomachs to
strong, healthy action—helpB
them to digest the food that makes
the good, rich, red blood which
nourishes the entire body.
This vegetable remedy, to a
great extent, puts the liver into
activity—-Oils the machinery of the
human system so that those who
spend their working hours at the
desk, behind the counter, or In
the home are rejuvenated into
vigorous health.
It has brought relief to many
thousands every year for nearly
fifty years. It can relieve you and
doubtless restore your former
health and strength. At least you
owe it to yourself to give it a trial.
