The same change is placing farming upon a better budness. basis. For years, of course, field work has been done largely by machinery. Otherwise America's tremendous agricultudal production would have been impossi ble. And now this same increase in operating efficiency is spreading to the doing of the lesser work on the farm. Chores have been a burden. They have faced the farmer or his boy twice a day, once before and once after a regular day's work. They have meant grinding drudgery. And their worst feature has been that they had to be done almost exclusively by hand. With the coming of electricity to the farm through the medium of the farm electric light and power plant, this condition has been greatly changed. Thausands of farms in America are to day entirely free of the tiresome part of chore work. Before dawn in the morning there is plenty of bright elec tric light in the barns while the milk ing is going on. And the milking itself is done not by hand, slowly and labor iously as before, but by a small elec tric motor. One man can easily do the work that took two or three before The separating and the churning are done in the same way. And so with a grindstone, the corn sheller, the fan ning mill and other light farm machin ery. Where two men worked before, one of them always turning the crank, now one man feeds the machine-boss the job-and the electric mdtor does Ithe work. And'pumping, one of the biggest jobs on the farnm is now done by an electric pump that is entirely automatic. - In the house the same labor saving Iis seen, only in this case it is the farm women who benitfit. Wash day is now a thing of electric machines and irons instead of the old fashion of bending over a tub all day. Sweeping- is done better and quicker with electricity. r This is surely the age of efficiency. lHand labor is passing in the country as it has in the city. - 0-o---- What a pretty deadlock it would Shave been in the garden of Eden, ii Eve, in possession of her rights of suffrage, had chosen to dis agree with SAdam!

Dodson's Liver Tone is taking its place. "Calomel is dangerous and people know it, while Dodson's Liver Tone is perfectly safe and gives better results," said a prominent local druggist. Take "Dodson's Liver Tone" Instead l Dodson's Liver Tone is personally guaranteed by. every druggist who sells it. A large bottle costs but a few cents, and if. it fails to give easy relief in every case of liver;,sluggish ness and constipation, you have only to ask for your money back. Dodson' Liver Tone is a pleasant tasting, purely vegetable remedy, harmless to both children and adults. Takl: a spoonful at night and wake up feeling fine: no biliousness, sick headache, acid stomach or constipated bowels. It doesn't gripe or cause in convenience all the next day like vio lent 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 ol vigor and ambition.
