WHY NOT GET
A GUARANTEE?
(Every Article of Merit that is Sold
These Days is Guaranteed—No
Guarantiee Often Means
Poor Quality.
There is vecy little excuse for
any person to claim that he has
been “stung” om a purchase. Fif
ty years ago thie buyer had to look
out. but to-da.y it is unusual to
find a merchant who will not re
turn the uiopey for any .article
that has prove*! unsatisfactory.
An excellent example of this
kind of fair dealing is shown bv
the clean-cut guarantee that all
druggists give on Dodson’s Liver
Tone.
These people tell us that any
person who pa^vs 50c for a bottle
»of Dodson’s Liver Tone and does
not find it a gentle and most
pleasant Iftver tonic, harmless, but
a sure reliever of constipation and
a perfect substitute for calomel,
can get hiis money back just is
quick as they can get it out of the
money drawer.
Dodson’s Liver Tone has prac
tically takem the place of cAlomel.
It is absolutely harmless, sure in
its action and causes no restric
tion of habit or diet. Xo wonder
the drug'people are glad to guar
antee it, while other remedies that
imitate the claims of Dodson’s
Liver Tone are not guaranteed at
all.

G. 0. P. Senators on
Wilson's Blacklist
x
Refuse Advice, and President Prob*
ably Will Decline to Consult
Them on Appointments.
WASHINGTON, April 17.—Presi
dent Wilson probably will cease his
custom of inviting Republican Sena
tors, as well as Democratic, to dis
cuss presidential appointments, as a
result of an incident to-day.
Senators James and Bradley, of
Kentucky, were called in to discuss
the appointment of Henry C. Breckin
ridge, of Lexington, Ky., to be Assist
ant Secretary of War. Senator James,
Democrat, said he had no objection to
the appointment, but Senator Bradley,
Republican, declined to discuss the
appointee.
Senators Penrose and Oliver, Re
publicans. w ho were called to discuss
a minor Pennsylvania appointment,
ahowed the same disinclination to ap
prove the selections of the other par
ty, and in tin future President Wilson
probably will rely solely on the opin
ions of Democratic members of the
upper house, to save possible unpleas
antness.
