The writer had the pleasure of vis iting the Franklinville Sunday school March the 21. will say that they have an up-to-date Sunday school in every respect. I noticed they have the very best teachers they were able to secure and as far as I could see and how they were up to their business. What at tract cd my attention was when the superintendent, Mr. Hugh Parks, Jr., came and escorted me through the dif ferent departments of the Sundav school, was the attention the small tots were giving and the earnestness the teacher was showing with those little fellows. They have 5 or 6 de partment in the school of very small children. There were 5 other classes in the gallery and 3 large clasess in the main part of the church all work ing and all interested in this work. This school is so interested in work that a stranger doesn't bother ttieni one minute. The school numbered 1!)4 on that day. Just think all of our towns could have just as good as that one if our leading men and busi ness men would come shoulder to shoulder like they do. The secretary treasurer, superintendent of botn mills, and the overseers all the mer chants and all of the very best peo- hle working together for one cause and that to enlighten their own mmas and not their only but the minds of those with whom they come in con tact day bv day. May God wonder fully bless him and his great work and may many of those precious chil dren rise up and call him blessed.

When you feel bilious, sluggish, con stipated and all knocked out and be lieve you need a dose of dangerous calomel, just remember that your druggist sells for 50 cents a large bot tle 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 in side, and cannot salivate. Don't take calomel! It makes you sick the next day; it loses you a day s work. Dodson's Liver Tone straight ens you right tip and you fel great. Give it to the children because it perfectly harmless and doesn't gripe.
