Calomel Loses You a Day’s Work!
; Take Dodson's Liver Tone Instead
Bead my guarantee! If bilious, constipated or head
achy you need not take nasty, sickening, danger
ous calomel to get straightened up.
Every t druggist in town—your
druggist, add everybody's druggist
noticed a great falling off in the
•ale of calomel. They all give the
same reason. Dodson's Liver Tone
ia taking] its place.
“Calomel is danger and people
know ft, • while Dodson's Liver Tone
is perfectly safe and gives better re
sults," said a prominent local drug
gist. Dodson’s Uver Tone is per
sonally guaranteed by every drug-
S st whd sells it. A large bottle
sts 50 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-
tastinfc, 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. Take a dose of
calomel today and tomorrow you will
feel weak, sick and nauseated. Don’t
lose a day’s work! Take Dodson's
Liver Tone instead and feel fine, full
of vigor and ambition.

buildings.

THOSE WHO ENUSTED.
Following is a complete list of
those who offered their services to
.the Athens home guard organisation
this morning:
Judge Andrew Cobb, Messrs. Bil
lups ihiinisy, F. M. Hodgson, J. F.
Hart, E. H. Dorsey, Sr„ R. M. An
derson, E. I. Smith, D. P. Haselton,
J. H. Dorsev, W. F. Dorsey, Sylvanus

Mell, R. C. Orr, J. F. Shepherd, J. F.
Rhodes, H. C. White, H. H. Linton,
At the regular monthly meeting of
the ma”or and council, which was
held in the city hall last night, the
matter of the new charter for the city
of Athens was decided upon. It was
decided that the election on the new
charter be called for Wednesday, June
20.
There were only a few points
changed in the charter from the way
it was prepared some time ago and
published. The points changed were
those pertaining to the police and fire
departments and were not material.
The elimination of the civil service ex
amination for the police and firemen
was eliminated and an insertion al
lowing the board of aldermen to cre
ate n civil service system if they
should see fit.
Next Wednesday evening at 8:30
oVIock there will be a mass meeting
held in the council chambers of the
city hall for the*purpose of giving all
of- the people of Athens an opportu
nity of hearing the charter read and
explained in oner that they may have
a clear view and know just how to
vote when the election ig held.
The regular routine business was
the only matter acted upon at the
meeting last night. The reports of
the officers were read and proved to
be very good, but the city charter
took up the greater part of the even-
fac
tion* or were classed ns “probable
exemptions” because of dependents or
occupations. Registration of Ger
mans was very heavy, 28,709 were
classed as “alien enemies.” .
Eight arrests for alleged violation
of the selective service act were re
ported today to the department of
justice.
Olnff Bcrlld and Ed Peterson, Nor
wegians, were arrested at Seattle
charged with conspiracy. They were
released on $5,000 bonds.
At Hubbel, N. J., Jerry Sclab,
Frank “Schafer and Roger Bowlan
are charged with circulating petitions
and endeavoring to induce men not
to register.
The other three cases arose from
refusal to register.
They were George Klearin, of Tren
ton, Neb., Pampha Manol, Mexican,
at Mason iCty, Iowa, and a German
alien whose name is not given, at
Little Rock, Iowa.

SUBMIT RECOMMENDATIONS:
A special advisory board of law
yers, jurists and military authorities
was ready to aubnflt recommenda
tions for general exemption plans to
President Wilson.
Already it is definitely determined
that ther$ will be no wholesale clnss
exemptions such as farmers, ship
builders, munition workers and
others.
The momentous exemption powers
will be placed almost entirely in, the
bands of local boards. Only general
outlines for guidance will be im-
posed upon these boards. President
Wilson is today preparing a procla
mation embodying these outlines and
the means to be used to select the
first levy by lot.
Included in the proclamation is a
broad plan forming the local exemp-
tion .boards. , ,
The boards may be composed of
local officials in each community. For
each federal or judicial district an
date board is provided to review
work of the local boards and net
upon appeals from their divisions.
The appelate board has original Juris
diction plans for oecupatlonsl exemp-
Qons.

wishes the appelate boards will be
made up only of men of the highest
standing and character in each dis

You apply just a few drops on the

[ DEATHS |
This seems a queer thing to be
thinking about, but -several years ago
the Rambler had the pleasure of vis
iting a resort called Hampton Bosch,
N, H.. It happened that the Rambler
went to this moat popular seashore
in the stale of New Hampshire with
a crowd of fellows and young ladles
to spend - a week. When they had
been at Hampton for about a week ail
of them left to get their “Wages” slid
were not permitte! to return. Well,
this is getting away from the matte if
at hand. What made the Rambler
think of this beach was a little story
he had heard of Hampton. He heard
that there was a name of;this kind
in Wtsshington, D. C., at this time and
that there were some few, very few,
Athena people interested in it. The
Rambler has not seen Hampton for
some time and he is anxious to again
visit the bench. The beach mentioned
is about fifteen miles from Ports
mouth. N. H., an* believe tho Ram
bler. there are some swell looking
ebickena near Hampton.
Well, we have allowed the peanut
man to get awav, and the little red
flivver must have something wrong
with it, as we have not lamped it In
some time. Beautiful girls still walk
on Clayton street so we will have to
content ourselves.
