Big Fees For Seven Doctors High-priced Physicians E ndorse Dodson’s Liver Tone. It Takes the Place of Calomel. America’s best known and highest priced physicians —seven of them —were paid very large fees to pass on the formula of Dodson’s Liver Tone, and all of them heartily endorsed this rem edy as a perfectly safe and reli able one. It takes the place of dangerous calomel in cases of constipation and torpid liver. Dodson’s Liver Tone has none of the disagreeable after-effects of calomel, which is in fact a poi son, a mineral, a form of danger ous mercury. On the other hand, Dodson’s Liver Tone is a strictly vegetable liquid, containing nothing harm ful, It acts pleasantly, easily and naturally, without pain or gripe and without interfering at all with your regular habits, diet or occupation. Dodson’s Liver Tone is guaran teed by Slaton Drug Cos. who wiil cheerfully refund purchase price (50c) at once if you are not entirely satisfid with it. A trial has benefitted many people and probably would help you. adv. Cantaloupes at your price, Paul Nolen & Cos., July 3rd and 4th. SARDIS. The singing at Sardis last Sun day afternoon was quite a suc cess. It was largely attended by people from far and near. The singing was especially good, we think better than ever before. We were very glad to have so many good singers present. We cordially invite them to come again. The Sunday school at Sardis is still improving. The attendance is especially good. We have a new supply of literature and hope that those who come to the Sun day school will get them a book and study the word of God. The Sunday school is better than ever before. We know that some of the Christians have been working and praying. We need more workers and prayers. We hope to have our Sunday school the best in the county and if we all strive to make it the best we will succeed through the help of God. We will have our annual meeting in August. Let us all go to work for the call of Christ. Go out after the lost sheep and bring them in. If we build up our Sunday school and church we have built up our com munity also. Car Watermelons fresh.
