CALOMEL IS MERCURY! IT SICKENS!
ACTS ON LIVER LIKE DYNAMITE
“Dodson’s Linr Tone’’ Starts Yoiir Liver
Better Tliaii Catonet anil Doesn't
Salivati or Main You Sick.
Listen to me! Take no more sick-
ening'y salivating calomel when bilions or
cbnfliipated. Don’t lose a day’s work!
Calomel is mercuiy or quicksilver
which causes necrosis of the bones.
Calomel, when it comes into contwt
with sour bile crashes into it, breaking
it up. This is when you feel that awful
nausea and cramping. If you are slug
gish and “all knocked out,” if your
liver is torpid and bowels constipated
or you have headache, dizziness, coated
tongue, if breath is bad or stomach sour
just a spoonful of harmless Dod
son’s lAver Tone on my guarantee.
Here’s my guarantee—Go to any drug
store ajod get a 50 cent bottle of Dod
son’s Livei Tone. Take a spoonful to
night and if it doesn’t straighten you
right up and make you feel fine and
vigorous by morning I want you to go
back to the store ajid get your money.
Dodson’s Liver Tone is destroying the
sale of calomd because it is real liver
medicine; entirely vegetable, therefore it
can not salivate or make you sick.
I guarantee that one spo^ul of Dod
son’s Liver Tone will put your sluggish
liver to work and clean your bowels of
that sour bile and constipated waat«
which ii clogging your systm and mak
ing you feel miserable. I guarantee that
a bottle of Dodson’s Liver Tone will
keep your entire family feeling fine for
months. Give it to your children. It ie
harmless; doesn’t gripe and they like ite
pleasant taste.

Work Begun on Addition to Schoo
for Deaf—Cemetery Moved.
Morganton, June 9. —Work was
begun this week on the addition to
the main building of the North
Carolina School for the Deaf—the^
kitchen addition for the building
of which the board of trustees of
the school recently made provi
sion. . It will be finished during
vacation, as will the new dairy
barn wMicb is being built. Daring
the summer steam ceilings will be
put ifl the dormitories and study
balls.
The Western Power company
has just finished moving at its ex
pense what is known as the Conley
graveyard on Paddy’s creek, near
Bridgewater, to a hill near the
Hilliard school bouse, a distance
of about a mile from the original
site. When the proposed dam is
built across the Linville river the
entire valley in which the burial
ground was located will be flooded,
hence the removal.
The Conleys were among the
first families to settle in western
Burke, then a part of Buncombe
county, and attached to the grave
yard is much interesting history
The oldest headstone bore the date
of burial 109 years ago. It was
found on taking^up “Big Bill”
Conley, who was buried fifty years
ago, that the stout pair of home
made shoes which he wore—“brb-
gans”—were almost as good as
new. One of the unknown dead
was found with skull turned face
downward. The number moved
was eighty-six.
Progressive Platform—American
ism Emphasized.
Chicago, June 8.—Ringing dec
larations of Americanism ar.d for
preparedness, military, spiritual,
economic, and industrial, are key
notes of the progressive national
platform completed today in co
operation with the republican con
vention platform builders. The
progressive platform leaders hoped
to present their document to the
convention today or tomorrow at
the latest.
The “Americanism” planks, mi
nus direct reference to hyphenism,
declared in vigorous terms for up
holding American rights on land
and sea, guarding “the honor and
influence of our nation” and main
tenance of “the integrity of inter
national law.”
The platform also declares that
the supreme duty of civilization is
to make peace permanent after the
war, for which this nation should
be prepared in every sphere. Re
garding military preparedness, the
platform declares for “a navy re
stored to at least second rank in
battle efficiency,” a standing army
of 250,000 men and “a system of
universal military training—a citi
zen soldiery—controlled by the
national government.”
Regarding Mexico, the platform
asserts that “every resource of the
government should be forthwith
used to end these conditions.”
Other platform declarations are
for woman suffrage, regulation of
industry and “just distribution of
its returns; conservation, re-estab
lishment of the American merchant
marine, national highways deyelop-
inent; a permanent tariff commis
sion and a protective tariff.
“SAFEIY SffiHS
PEOPLE ARE TOO PRONE TO FOR
QET VALUABLE SUGGESTION
IN SIMPLE WORDS.
Suggested That Law Be Enacted Re*
quiring ^'Safety F^st" Sign to be
Posted in Front of all Engi
neers and Drivers.
In all probability a more appropriate
and valuable suggestion was never
made in two simple words thac
“Safety first.” It is indeed a fit com
panion phrase to the now classic ad
monition, “Lest we forget.” But, of
the two, the former is the stronger.
With “Safety flTwt” always in mind,
the little we couW forget would not be
worth remembering. The besetting sin
is that we are too prone to forget
“Safety first.”
This is the pity of it, and it seems
to us something should be done which
would in large measure prevent forget-
fulnesis. We have in mind a more
practical and effective method than
merely the printed words “Safety first”
posted indiscriminately for the eyes of
any who may be sufficiently interested
to give the suggestion a passing
thought. There is ddnger of such so-
called education becoming one of ridi
cule rather than of adoption. This for
the reason, the general public has been
told to “Watch its step” until this un
official advice is as sounding brass.
What about the individual who pulls
the throttle, the bell cord, the lever of
the eelctric car, the elevator, or who
handles the wheel of the automobile?
If the insnrance commissioners of this
country would recommend to the leg
islatures of their States the enact
ment of a law requiring the words
“Safety first” to be posted in red let
ters directly in front of every engineer,
motorman or driver of a public or pri
vate conveyance, propelled by steam,
electricity, or gasoline, the greatest
possible stride towards the elimination
of preventable accidents would be the
net result.—Insurance Vindicator.

All Over North Carolina People Are
Aroused to a Desire For a Better
and Safer School Building.
One of the best signs of the times
Is the awakening of the people in re
gard to “Better and Safer School
Buildings^” From one end of the
country to the other, and especially
In North Carolina, people are being
u*ous^ to a desire to have their
school buildings safe for their child
ren.
Insurance Commissioner Young is
especially gratified that nearly every
new school*building to be erected in
the State is to have the Double Tower
Stairways, as advised by him, and
no stairways or other opening between
the floors on the inside of the build
ing. This will absolutely care for the
smoke panic that causes over 80 per
cent of all the casualties in school
fires. With the discussion and pub
licity that has been given to the mat
ter in the State, this is not surprising,
but it is suprising that the Commis
sioner is receiving from nearly every
State of the Union requests for the
pamphlet issued by him showing the
proposed safety suggestions.

Riches used to talie wings, but

Some time ago there arrived in
Asheville a man from PenniSylvania
by the name of John T. Scott, who
went into the insurance business. He
seems to have violated about every
law of the State governing the su
pervision and control of insurance
agents. The Insurance Department is
"anxious to be advised of his wherea
bouts in order that he may be brought
back here and put upon trial for his
many jnisdeeds in swindling the peo
ple as well as the companies that he
represented.
This is a very striking case showing
the importance of care upon the part
of insurance companies in their se
lection of agents and the caution that
our people should exercise in patro
nizing agents without being satisfied
that they are men of character and
standing. There is as much danger
iu trusting an insurance agent v«rho is
unreliable and without character as
in dealing with any other unreliable
business man.
