Every druggist in town youi druggist and everybody's druggisi has noticed a great falling-off in the sale of calomel. They all give the same reason. 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 Te eults' said a prominent local drug gist. Dodson's Liver Tone is per sonally guaranteed by every drug gist "who sells it A large bottle costs but a few cents, and if it fails to give easy relief in every case of liver sluggishness and constipation, you have only to ask for your money back. . Dodson's Liver Tone is a pleasant tasting, purely vegetable remedy, harmless to both children and adults. Take a spoonful at night and wake tip feeling fine; no biliousness, sick headache, acid stomach or consti pated bowels. It doesn't gripe or cause inconvenience all the next day like violent calomel. CLIP THIS AND PIN ON WIFE'S DRESSER Cincinnati man tells how to shrivel up corns or cal lusts so the); lift, off with fingers. Ouch IT!?!! This kind of rough talk will be heasd less here in town if people troubled with Orns will follow the simple advice of this Cincinnati authority, who claims that a few drops of a drug called freezone when applied to a tender, aching corn or hardened cal lus stops soreness at once, and soon the corn or callus dries up and lifts right off without pain. He says freezone dries immediately and never inflames or even irritates the surrounding skin. A small bottle of freezone will cost very little at any drug store, but will positively remove every hard or soft corn or callus from one's feet. " Millions of American women will welcome this announcement since the inauguration of the high heels. If your druggist doesn't.have freezone tell him to order a small bottle for you.

Dear Everybody :- The day we landed will long re main a fixed memory. Our boats were fast and we lost no time. We knew we were close to land when day broke and I was up at five. Everyone was excited, we were really at high pitch but not afraid. Two days in the zone keeping "death watch" had not dampened my spirits, tho' twice our guns opened as if in barrage. We were too foxy for Mr. Sub. The day was perfect tho the sea was running high. I went in the nest at eight and soon a long black line came in sight, a light-house be came visible, and sea-gulls came by my head to welcome us. Thousands of lusty American voices shouted in glee. There was a small gap in that black line which had materialized into high cliffs, and we steered for it. The foam of mighty waves climbed up these rocks and turned to spray. About ten o'clock, June 19th, he slowly crept thru this black gate, seon tho harbor flashed in view, corn ered with tiny boats that looked like wooden shoes, and sailes many times as large as they, ia different colors. There were big ships and graceful schooners anchored there. The cliffs fell gradually away, ex cept on one point at my right. This noint was covered with a mass of tangled forest, dark gray towers of rock rose far above the trees. At first I thought it natural, but almost immediately I realized it was a castle. How impregnable it must have once been! It looked as If the hill had blossomed into a gray flower so close ly did the lines blend. Beyond the base of the castle, the landscape sloped smoothly away, beautiful with checkered spots of vinyards, but, at the apex of the harbor, the ground was still high, and the water ended against a cliff, or appeared to. learned later that a narrow channel veered off, and ran far into the in terior. To my left the city stood, built of rock on many hills that jutted the high plateau, and seemed to tumble into the harbor, as the steep slope from the ridge of the plateau looked like a picture of a cave-dweller's city. At the foot were the docks, from them a road, ziz zazed up to the city. It is said this road was built in the days of Caesar possibly by him. It is certainly steep, for I marched up it, and felt I like I might be climbing Queen's Creek mountain, and cobble stones. I spent several hours wandering around with Lieut. Chester, of Ral eigh. We had loads of fun. We had learned enough French to get long on, but I know it was crude ! stuff. These people look on Amer ican, officers as millionaires. Crippled soldiers and children cried for alms and we got a pocketful of 10 cen times and endeavored to keep them disallusioned ! It takes 5 centimes to make one U. S. penny! They look on a franc as we do a dollar. Things are cheap, except staples. I got "dinner, a shave, hair cut, bad a crystal put on my watch, a hand, also and it cost only 6 francs $1.02. But clothes, etc., are out of sight. This city on the hills is one of about the size of Richmond only more compact cobble-stones and wooden shoes! The parks are filled with children all the timer red faces and flashing eyes, but with great big wooden shoes pitiful! In fact my heart bleeds for these poor people, they have the queerest expressions, a mixture of resignation, hope, pain, with a poor effort at cheerfulness. They treat us with distinct diffidence, look on us. a some kind of saviors. We were standing on a park corner where some French guards came marching along with a big bunch, of German prisoners. They are big sturdy fellows those Germans most of them wearing scars, and rag ged uniforms. They had an expres sion of the caged leopards- except two or three boys. They looked at us hard, passing within 2 feet of me. I wanted to (safely) experience the proximity of German troops I As we wandered thru the parks, French crippled soldiers rose and saluted us, and we stopped and pass ed them a coin with, bon jeur, never loosing an opportunity to dis play our vast knowledge of simple phrases. The lower class is poverty stricken. They glean the warves where our abundant supplies are unloaded, they infest the boders of our camps, pick ing up scraps of bread. The old wo men glean the ash dumps for bits of coal. Men in small boats crowd around our transports picking up boxes kindling. To get an idea of the present condition of the French common people, read again Les Miserables.

When the rough hand of mans crushes the tender flesh of women feel a hate ja courage a fierce ness that is kin to savagery thus I look upon the fist and all the people of his kingdom. But I wandered away from my narrative, even using the wrong sheet. x In twelve hours we began our march, a long, dusty, column miles long. Uncle Sam is coming to the res- one. This is our first night in Rest Billets. It is 10:30 p. m. and still I. write in the twilight. We are al most in the land of the midnight sun darkness at eleven dawn at three. We are camping tonight within a stone's throw of a fortress built by Napolean, and within 2 miles of a famous chateau built by Henry IV. The woods are lonely, large hick ory trees and clean woods you could see links for a mile in all directions rolling groves like the flat on Forge Mountain! My bunkie is growling for me to go to bed. Eleven o'clock and not dark yet. . Tis wonderful Country. Will write again soon. Don't worry about me, rather rejoice that I'm here With best wishes to everybody, and my love to the dearest people on earth my family.
