LOCAL DRUGGIST
MARES STATEMENT
j
!
Every person who has tried Dodson s j
Liver lone and knows how surely and j
gently it starts the liver to woikmg ;
and relieves biliousness will bear out
the Swinney & stigler diug store in
this statement about Dodsons Liver
lone
"It is a purely vegetable liquid, that
entirely takes the place of caiomel,
harmless and pleasant to the taste,
that has proven itse.f the most satis
factory remedy for a slow-working
liver that most < f our customers have
ever tried. A large bottle sells lor
fifty cents and we do not hesitate to
give the money back to any person
who tries a bottle on the stnngth of
this statement and is not satisfied with
the result."
ln these days of doubtful medicines
and dangerous diogs, a statement like
the above is a pleasant assurance that
Dods m's Liver Tone is a reliable re
medy for both children and grown-ups.
In buying a bottle for immediate or
future use it is well to make sure you
are g-e ting the genuine Dodson s Liver
Tone and not some spurn J? mutation
that has copied our claims, but do not
stand back of their guarantee. You
may be certain of getting the genuine
if you go to Swinney & Stigler for it.
Says Dodson's Liver Tone is the
Best Remedy tor Constipation
and Shirking Liver He
Has Ever Sold.

Close his eyes; his work is done,

Hand of man or kiss of woman?
Lay him low, lay him low.
In the clover or the snow!
What cares he? He can not know.
Lay him low.
Bravely he fought his best,
Proved his worth by his endeavor;
Let him sleep in solemn right—
Sleep forever and forever
Lay him low, lay him low,
In the clover or the snow!
What cares he? He can not know.
Lay him low.
Fold him in his country's stars,
Roll the drum and fire the volley;
What to him are all our waxs—
What but death-bemocking folly?
Lay him low, lay him low,

What cares he? He can not know.

Mis Walter Gwin was hostess of a
charming afternoon function Thursday
and Mrs. Dalton McBee the fair hon
oree. To receive her guests Mrs Gwin
wore an effective toilette of flame col
ored crepe with lace accessories.
Mrs. McBee's gjvvn was of shadow
lace, en tunic, over American beauty
silk crepe with harmonizing girdle.
The contest for the entertainment of
the guests was anatomical conundrum,
the cle er conceits aiojsing much men
tality aid friendly rivalry. The hard
somelv gowned guests occupied the
spacious reception hall and were clus
tered around eight polished tables
centered w th blooming pots of white
hyacinths and narcissus, which gave
the first tints of the perfume and path
ways of Spring. For the cleverest so
lution of the puzzles, a handsome
bronze ink stand and ornament was
presented Miss Loula Beall, and a toast
book rewarded Mrs. Elmore's skill.
A crystal vinagrette of smelling salts
restored Miss Wilson's equilibrium af
ter discovering she was the minority
candidate of the contest. A beautiful
bride pastel, with a verse of Love,
was the souvenir presented Mrs. Me
Bee. An elaborate menu and an ice
were served during the farewell hour
of the delightful date. Mrs. Lester
