THE COUNTRY BOY.
God bless the barefoot country boy—
The home-spanked, prayed-for kind—
That catches bird-notea in hia heart
And sunbeams in his mind;
His pants uncreased, hell make a man
By Nature's law designed.
In field with flaky cotton white
Or green with graceful waving corn,
In honest work he finds delight
And knows no heavy task to scorn,
Bnt welcomes rest that comes with night
To limbs by faithful labor worn.

Calotabs, the New Kind of Calomel, Does

pleasantness or Danger.
You have always thought of calomel
aa tho best and surest medicine in the
world, but too nauseating for yon
take. That was the old style calomel
Now science has taken the sting
out of calomel by (removing its unpleas
ant and dangerous qualities, and has
kept all its good liver-cleansing and sys
tem-purifying effects.
The next time yon are billons or con
stipated ask for Calotabs, the new nau
sealess calomel. Sold only In original
sealed packages, price thirty-five cents.
One tablet at bedtime, with a swallow of
water,—that’s all. No taste, no grip
ing, no nausea, no salts. Yon wake up
In the morning feeling fine, your liver
active, your system purified, and with a
hearty appetite for breakfast Eat what
yon please—no danger of salivation. Your

SUMNER GOT TEN
EVER SALIVATED BY
CALOMEL? HORRIBLE!
Calomel is quicksilver and acts like dyn
amite on your liver.
Calomel loses you a day! You know
what calomel is. It’s mercury; quick
silver. Calomel is dangerous. It crashes
into sour bile like dynamite, cramping
and sickening you. Calomel attacks the
bones and should never be put into your
system.
When you feel bilious, sluggish, con*
stipated and all knocked out and believe
you need a dose of dangerous calomel
just remember that your druggist sells
for a few cents a large bottle of Dodson’s
Liver Tone, which is entirely vegetable
and pleasant to take and is a perfect
substitute for calomel. It is guaranteed
to start your liver without stirring you
up inside, and can not salivate.
Don’t take calomel! It makes you sick
the next day; it loses you a day’s work.
Dodson’s Liver Tone straightens you
right up and you feel great Give it to
the children because it is perfectly harm
less and doesn’t gripe. adv
