A SURE REMEDY
FOR LAZY LIVER
Go to Saunders & Fowden for this
Safo, Reliable Remedy and Get
Your Money Back if it Fails
There are very few remedies
that gain the confidence of drug
gists as Dodson's Liver Tone does.
Saunders & Fowdrn sells it and
backs up the sale of every bottle
with the money back guarantee
that the price will be refunded if
it fails to give complete satisfac
tion."
Dodspn's Liver Tone costs 50
cents a bottle. It is the safest
and best remedy for torpid liver
constipation, biliousness, etc.,
that has ever been sold in this
city. It takes the place of dan
gerous calomel and does not lay
you up as a dose of calomel often
does. A bottle in the house is as
good as fifty cents in the bank.
If you or your famfty need a liver
tonic you have the medicine ready.
If it fails you get your money
back.
Be sure you get Dodson's Liver
Tone when you ask for it. There ;
we imitations of it that may dis- j
appoint you. j

BREAKING THE NEWS
By Ai-Ufe BROCK,
"Papa." begati Bobble one evening
after dinner, "It makes a lot of differ
ence whether you like f person or
not. doesn't It T'*
Bobbie's father laid down the eve
ning paper and looked at his son crit
ically. "What has little Miss Kelly
been doing nowT" he asked.
Bobble screwed up bis face. "Mies
Kelly!" ho repeated scornfully. "I
bet nobody over to school would know
who you were, talking about She
isn't Miss Kelly, and she don't ever
be. She ain't In my room any more,
and I'm glad.. Gee, she's the atingb
est thng! If she gives the fellers a
bjte of ber apple you can know there's
something the matter with It. There
in't nobody likes her, les'n It's BiUy"
"I understood that she was a very
bright girl."
"Bright! Well, maybe,"' Bobbie said
grudgingly. "I dunno. But honest,
there's a lot more to think about
than Just books."
"I thought that was your •opln
i Ion." • - 1
"Well, Its so," Bobble declared.
"Mamma doesn't want me to be sit
ting studying till 'leven every night
I sh'd say not."
"Does Mamie Kelly study that
: hard?"
"Well, no," acknowledged Bobbie.
"You wee, she goes home and works
afternoons, but gee, she ain't a boy,
and she doesn't mind sticking around
the house. They have to work ter
ribly hard in her room. Billy says he
gets nearly killed."
"Is Billy in her room now?" #
"Yes, there's lota of fellers In her
room. They've got a teacher I don't
like. She dresses in freshy gowns. I
don't think they ought to wear gowns
to school,"
"You don't? Well, may I ask if you
prefer bloomers?"
"I don't know as It's bloomers," Bob
ble said thoughtfully. "But anyhow
I don't like party dresses at school.
Then, she's awful strict. You dassn t
smile, hardly, les'n she comes down on
you like a hrnnmor. Jimmy, he says
she scares him almost Into a fit, and
one day she sent him home."
"So Jimmy's in Mamie's room, too?"
"Sure," Hobble said, uneasily. "It's
an awful big room this year. I heard
the teacher saving it wns 'most too big
to handle. Gee, but there's some
swell fellers In my room. Yotr know
that Pete Harding? Well, he's there
and he's one of the "biggest fellers on
Aunt Mary's street. We had a lot
of fun with him yesterday. He was
showing us some circus stunts he icon
—saw last year. Some class to him,
all right."
"What, is your teacher like?"
"Oh, she's all right," Bobble said,
carelessly. "I knew her before, and
she certainly Is fine. Susie Herrick
says she's awful glad to get away from
her. but everybody knows what Su
sie Herrick is. There ain't nobody
likes Susie, less'n it's Jimmy, and he
goes over there a lot."
"Is Susie Herrick '.n Mamie Kelly'i
room, too?"
"Well er—yea. Ilut 1 don't be
lieve anybody could like that teach
er. She was awful cross to Nellie
Foster, and I Just tell you that It
wasn't fair. She got sore at Nellie
for whispering—that was all there wai
to It. You ciy»'t breathe In that room.
That teacher thinks books Is every
thing:. Sho doea around With a book
under her arm, Just as If she liked
It. Gee. 1 wouldn't bo a teacher for a
farm!" -n-r-»-
"What room la Nellie Foßler In?"
"Not In Mamlo Kelly's room! There
ain't anybodv'd stay in her room If she
cculd get out. I'd rather be In the
kindergarten alone than In a room
with Mamie Kelly."
"Why didn't Nellie Foster no up
with the rest?"
"Oh. ehe did," Pobbie said, dolefully.
"She's awful engirt. Hut what can
you do with n teacher like that? A
person couldn't admire Mamie Kelly
and Nellie Foster, too. The new
teacher Is MRmte Kelly's kind. She
won't let a fclle.r even smile In school.
So that's how Nelllo Foster got sent
dev n. It wasn't n thing but fer whl«-
k U I,mkes me awful tired. Of
course, some of the marks was bad,
but they often Is In a new room."
''When* is Nelllo Pouter now?"
"Her?" Hobble said slowly. "Weß,
you see, she'B In my room. 1—
well, you see, I got sent down, too."—
