THE WEEK’S REVIEW
ACTS IffiJMIE OK LIVER
I Guarantee “Dodson’s Liver Tone” Will Give You the Best Liver
and Bowel Cleansing You Ever Had—Doesn’t Make You Sick!
Stop using calomel! It makes you
tick. Don't lose a day't work. If you
feel lazy, sluggish, bilious or consti-
pated, listen to me!
Calomel is mercury or quicksilver
which causes necrosis of the bones.
Calomel, when It codes Into contact
with sour bile, crashes into It, breaking
It up. This is when you feel that aw-
ful nausea and cramping. If you feel
"all knocked out.” If your liver is tor-
pid and bowels constipated or you
have headache, dizziness, coated
tongue, If breath Is bad or stomach
■our just try a spoonful of harmless
Dodson’t Liver Tone.
Here's my guarantee—Go to any
drug store or dealer and get a BO-cent
bottle of Dodson’s Liver Tone. Take a
spoonful and if It doesn't straighten
you right up and make you feel tins
and vigorous I want you to go back to
the store and get your money. Dod-
son’s Liver Tone Is destroying the
sale of calomel because it is real liver
medicine; entirely vegetable, therefore
it cannot salivate or make you Blck.
I guarantee that one spoonful of
r.dBon’s Liver Tone will put your
3‘ugglsh liver to work and clean your
bowels of that sour bile and consti-
pated waste which is clogging your
system and making you feel miserable.
I guarantee that a bottle of Dodson's
Liver Tone will keep your entire fam-
ily feeling fine for months. Give It to
your children. It Is harmless; doesn't
gripe and they like its pleasant taste.

tion, as time passes you may have a sal-
low complexion, puffy or dark circle*

If auch conditions are permitted to
continue, serioua results may be expect-
ed; Kidney Trouble in ita very worat
(arm may ateal upon you.
Prevalsney of Kidney Disease.
Moat people do not realize the alarm
ing increase and remarkable prevaleney
of kidney disease. While kidney dis-
orders are among the moat common dia-
eaaea that prevail, they are almoat the
laat recognized by patients, who usually
content themstlves with doctoring tht
effects, while the original disease may
constantly undermine the system.

cause of your sickness or run down eon
dition. try taking Dr. Kilmer’a Swamp-
Root, the famous kidney, liver and blad-
der remedy, because as soon as your kid-

Oklahoma City.—An estimate made
ly Hubert L. Bolen, collector of in-
ternal revenue, places the income tax
which the United States government
will collect in Oklahoma for the fiscal
year beginning last June 1. at $1,800,-
1100, and the total sum, which includes
ipecial taxes, at $2,500,000.
Individuals and corporations in the
state liable to the provisions of the
Income tax law, exceed 16,000. Of
this number, approximately 10,000 are
corporations.
According to Mr. Bolen's figures
the amount to be collected will be
double the sum collected in the fiscal
year ending June 1 last. Prosperous
times, he says, lias led to the forma
lion of many new corporations.
Special Tax In Force. •
By a provision of the law enacted
this year, corporations which have
been dissolved since January 1, 1016.
are also liable to payment of the tax.
If they show a net profit. Officers of
!uch corporations are required to tile
a statement the same as those now
In existence.
Part of the huge collection for this
year will come from the special excise
tax provided at the last session of
congress. This tax is laid on corporu
tions originating in the United States
and on the capital invested in this
country by foreign corporations. After
an exemption of $99,000 from the cap-
ital stock is made, the corporation
1b required to pay 50 cents on each
11,000 capital stock The surplus and
undivided profits of the corporation
Is Included in estimating the capital
stock.
McAlester.—A plot for a prison
break which was designed to liberate
twentyflve Oklahoma convicts on
Christmas eve was thwarted when
prison officials discovered the opening
of an underground tunnel leading
from a basement storeroom in which
tools were kept. Only four days’ work
remained. Four prisoners suspected
of being Implicated ate now in soli-
tary confinement.
On the heels of thp failure of thn
prison break plan, eighty three prison-
ers were released on Christmas par-
dons, paroles and reprieves for good
conduct. Among the prisoners pa-
roled was William Mcltrine, former
warrant clerk in the slate auditors
office, convicted of issuing bogus war-
rants. McBrine was chief warrant
clerk during the administration of Leo
Meyer and was charged with issuing
apd marketing more than $20,000
in bogus warrants. He fled Oklahoma,
and after a journey in many foreign
countries returned to the United
States, engaging in the theatrical
business in New York City. When his
funds liqcame exhausted he wrote to
officers in Oklahoma, and offered to
surrender. He returned to Oklahoma,
was triad on several charges and con-
victed on one. He served the sen-
tence and was arrested on another
charge. He pleaded guilty in superior
court of Oklahoma county and was
sentenced to prison a second time.
McBrlne’s defalcation was one of the
political sensations that preceded the
upheaval in the fourth session of the
Oklahoma legislature, and which re
suited in Impeachment charges
against several state officials. Mc-
Brine while in prison issued a state-
ment completely exonerating Leo
Meyer from knowledge of the defal
cation.

Everyone loves the rich
flavor of Arbuckles’ Coffee.
Of all the coffees in America
today, it is by far the most

Until you try Arbuckles’
you will never know what
a difference good coffee can
make in your home.
Today there are whole towns where Arbuckles’
is practically the only coffee used. In one State,
alone, in a year, four pounds of Arbuckles’ Coffee
was used for every man, woman and child in the
State—four times as many pounds of coffee as the

Muskogee.—William J. Creekmore,
knowh as "king of the bootleggers,
Indicted by the federal grand Jury at
Chickasha recently on three counts,
charging cqnspiracy to evade the fed-
eral liquor laws by bribing a federal
officer, has been arrested at Joplin,
Mo., and released on $10,000 bond
pending a hearing before a United
States commissioner on December 27,
at which time he will resist removal
to Oklahoma for trial.
It was not anticipated that Creek-
more would return to eastern Okla-
homa for trial without a legal fight
and no surprise was manifested at
the United States attorney's office
over the efforts that will be made to
prevent Creekmore’s removal here.
W. P. McGinnis, assistant United
States attorney, will represent the
government at the hearing before the
United States commissioner at Joplin.
It has not been determined whether
Creekmore and others under a con-
spiracy indictment will be tried at the
January tprm of the federal court
which begins here January 8, *
Oklahoma City—Seventy-five thou-
sand dollars will be distributed to em-
ployes of the Pioneer Telephone and
Telegraph Company in the state of
Oklahoma some time between now
and Christmas. Of this amount, ap-
proximately $14,500 will be distributed
in Oklahoma City. .
Employes who have been in the
service of the company one year or
more and who are receiving an an-
nual salary of $3,000 or less, will be
given the equivalent of three weeks’
pay. Those of the same class, but
who have been in the service from
three months to otie year, will receive
the equivalent to two weeks’ pay.
Those receiving salaries from $3,000
to $4,000 per year will participate, but
will not receive sums in the same pro-
portion as the smaller salaries em
ployes.
John M. Noble, manager of the local
Pioneer plant, stated that the distribu-
tion is not a "profit-sharing" scheme,
since ail plants have been compelled
to expand during the past year and
purchase material at war prices while
selling service at pre-war contracts.
“The distribution If. intended." said
Mr. Noble, “to bridge the gap between
incomes and necessities of the smaller
salaried employes of the company."
The Bell telephone system will dis-
tribute $6,000,000 to employes in bo-
nuses.

the beginlng of what local operators
believe to be a contest with the Stan-

Oklahoma by the Prairie Oil and Gas
