CALOMEL GOOD DOT TREACHEROUS Next Dose Way Salivate, Shock Liver or Attack Your Bones. You know what calomel is. It’s mer cury; quicksilver. Calomel is danger ous. It crashes’ into sour bile like dynamite, cramping and sickening you. Calomel attacks the bones and should never be put into your system. If you feel bilious, headachy, consti pated and ail knocked out, just go to your druggist and get a bottle of Dod son's Liver Tone for a few cents which is a harmless vegetable substitute for dangerous calomel. Take a spoonful and if it doesn’t start your liver and straighten you up better and quicker than nasty calomel and without making you sick, you just go back and get your money. 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. No salts necessary. Give it to the children because it is perfectly harmless and can not salivate. —Advertisement. "WOULD BE RADICAL CHANGE Strong Probability That Possessor of the More Expensive Suit Had the Right idea. Two negro boys in a Southern city met on the street, each wearing a new suit. One asked: “How much do they set you back fuh, dem clo’s?” “Fo’ty dollalis,” was the response. “Fo’ty dollalis?” “Yes, sah —fo’ty dollalis.” “Look at me,” said the first. “I’se got on a suit w’at’s mos’ perzact'.y like yourn, and I don't pay hut ten dollalis fuh mine. Somebody shore flimflammed you.” The possessor of the S4O suit took hold of one of the coat sleeves of the $lO suit and pulled on it. It stretched. Then, straightening up, he said: “See here, boy, the fust big rain yo’ gets ketched out in dat coat of yourn is gwine to say: ‘Good-by, niggah! From now on I’se gwine be yo’ vestl”— Judge.

Helen, age seven, sat in the rear seat of father’s automobile while he went shopping in a department store. Fa ther had not noticed that he had parked his machine where there was supposed to be “no parking.” It all happened before the change in admin istration. So, when he returned to his auto mobile, Helen was busily engaged in scratching a sticker off the wind shield. “Dad.v, that old naughty policemans stuck that paper there,” she confided. Daddy was glad that he arrived bo fore it was all scratched away. MOTHER! CLEAN CHILD'S BOWELS WITH CALIFORNIA FIG SYRUP Even a sick child loves the "fruity” taste of “California Fig Syrup.” If the little tongue is coated, or if your child Is listless, cross, feverish, full of cold, or has colic, give a teaspoonful to cleanse the liver and bowels. In a few hours you can see for yourself how thoroughly it works all the constipa tion poison, sour bile and waste out of the bowels, and you have a well, play ful child again. Millions of mothers keep “California Fig Syrup” handy. They know a tea spoonful today saves a sick child to morrow. Ask your druggist for genu ine “California Fig Syrup” which has directions for babies and children of all ages printed on bottle. Mother! You must say “California” or you may get an imitation fig syrup.—Advertise ment. Naturally. Ethel—She swears she’s never been kissed. Clara —Is that why she swears?

I SPRING HATS NOW APPEAR; f | NEW AND VARIED BLOUSES | SINGLY and in little groups, spring hats have been venturing out of their boxes and into the chill but bright nnd promising days of late winter in the northern states. In warmer climes sport huts for spring, and some others of different character have flourished under summer skies, and they have set the pace for spring | modes —revealing that there is to be a great diversity in styles, especially in the matter of size. This point is apparent in the group of hats shown here. The earliest hats, as usual, are made of fabrics, or fub | rics and braid combined, and there is ! much hand work on them. The group 5 pictured includes the range in size and the shapes ure popular. The wkle SOME OF THE EARLIER HATS brimmed hat at the top, of silk-fiber braid, is faced with crepe de chine and trimmed with a series of bows gradu ated in size, with loops of faille ribbon that stand up about the crown nnd oth ers that lie flat on the brim. It is a lie coming shape and a practical hat de veloped in the softest colors of a colorful season. Below’ it is a model that wfill look particularly well with the new plain tailored suits of home spun and tweed in spring colors. It is a body hat of straw with sash of prepe having a heavy rib. The brim edge is bound with this crepe. The small hat wfith a bee-hive crown (n two tiers, is among the most wear able of many becoming shapes. It is piade of a lustrous braid and its nar row drooping brim is faced with crepe. Knr TWO TASTY BLOUSES Knotted ribbon lies about the brim, nnd small blossoms and fruit, set in velvet foliage make a delightful j adornment for it. Off-the-face shapes are in demand and are offered in great variety in all displays. One of them covered with faille silk has a novel trimming of narrow faille rib bon. in a series of short ends, eacli end finished wdth beads. These ends are arranged in rows across the up turned brim and this is another hat which will find itself in the com pany of tailored suits to their mutual advantage. Consider the blouses thf.t are now trooping in and crow-ding toward the center of fashion’s stage. Thev THE IHONTHOiMERY MONITOR. MT. VERNON. GEORGIA. are all ingenues, it seems, with the most engaging airs of simplicity and youthfulness, but how varied they are! We recognize in the types and styles some old favorites, like the handmade, tailored blouses of fine voile or ba tiste, or dircify and those of crepe de chine and oth >r crepes, but they are hand-in-hand with beautiful strangers, and have themselves a new coun tenance. There are linens in pastel colorings nnd checked taffetas that make entire waists or merely add their freshening new touch, in trimmings and accessories, on crepe de chine blouses. There are natural colored linens in collar and cuff sets that In vite comparison with sets in Irish crochet lace on silk blouses —nnd there are dainty gingham waists and those of esponge that made an earlier entry. The tuck-in and short, over-the-skirt styles almost monopolize the displays. A few longer blouses are suggestive of the middy, from all of which It may he gathered that blouses are merely an obligato to the spring song of suits. Many of them are quite strictly tailored nnd among the most pleasing are the pastel-colored linens with white bind ings and sequences of white pearl or fabric-covered buttons. This button decoration appears on silk blouses also. Two silk crepe blouses are shown here, one of them at the left combin ing crepe de chine in the body of the blouse with georgette sleeves. Nan j row silk braid in a contrasting color outlines the square neck and shoulder i yoke and is set about the waist which Is adjusted by an elastic band. A heavier crepe makes the pretty tuck in blouse with collar band and lower part of the sleeve of Persian silk. The full sleeve is gathered into a band forming a cuff tied with narrow silk ribbon. It is said that the mode will not call for Mouses matching the suit in color hot leans toward pleasing contrasts. ccrrtiOKT n VBTUH NOntAfU UNION Beautiful walls! Harmonies never before imagined!
