M'C0MBS ACCEPTS POST OF
AMBASSADOR TO FRANCE

WASHINGTON, April 2.-Winiam
+. McCombS, chairman of the Demo-
cratic National Committee, has recon
sidered his declaration of President
Wilson's offer to appoint him Ambas-
sador to France, and will accept the
post. 1t is understood that McCombs'
nomination will be sent to the senate
shortly after congress cOnVenes in eX-
ira session next week.
Shortly after McCombs announced
his final" declination of the tcndel-ot
the foreign post, it became known in
Washington that he was about To re-
consider, and, in this connection, it
was reported that the position would
be open pending his reconsideration
1t is not known what Induced Me-
Combs to change his mind, but il is
reported that he decided that he could
so shape his financial affairs as to
justify his acceptance of the French
post
To all inquiries, White House Off
cials to-day admitted that they were
puzzled and did not know exactly
what Mr. McCombs would do.
On the day before the senate adj
journed Mr.. McComhs tClcpLuned the
White House to prepare his nomine-
ton and indicated that he wcuid like
to be confirmed before thc senate ad-
iourned
Friends Cf the administration pav"d
the way for confirmation of the noni-
ination III the closing hours al the
special session, but at the instance cf
Mr.. McCombs the affair was dr"pi ed
and soon afterward the national
chairman issued q statement formally
declining the post.
There is little likelihood that any
thing authoritative or definite will be
known in respect to the appointment
until Mr.. McCombs makes another
public announcement or his nominal
ton or that of some other man Tor
ambas sador to France actually is sent
to the senate.
1t was stated at the White House
that since Mr.. McCombs' public an
nouncement Of his declination. the
President had not determined upon
any one for the post, and that II the
national chairman were disposed to
change his mind he still could have
the place.

GOING OUT OF USE
A Safer. More Reliable Remedy Has
Taken It's Place in the Drug
Store and in the Home.

A few years ago, men, women and

safer, more pleasant remedy than Gallo
mel in Dodson's Liver Tone.

store sells Dodson'a Liver Tone in
practically every case Of biliousness
and liver trouble where calomel used
to be taken.
Dodson's Liver Tone is a vegetable

less for children and grown people.

anteed to be entirely satisfactory by

WHY HE TOOK 'MONA LISA

Was Fulfilling Vow.

absolutely to the police to-day that he
had no accomplices, either direct or
indirect, in the theft of the painting
from the Louvre in Paris. Nobody
knew Of his plan before its execution;
nobody saw him when he distracted
the picture in his possession.

a desire for gain ne said, "but wish

of these masterpieces.
The idea obsesser him and the
''Mona Lisa" was. ever before him.
When he could delay no longer he
found he could accomplish his pur-
pose without great difficulty, as al
ready was known by those employed
about the building. After the theft he
was interrogated by the police, but
his frankness and his request that
they search his room disarmed
suspicion.
Similarly, when he crossed the
French frontier, ne so readily opened
his work box for the authorities that
they neglected to search it. APP
parently it contained only a few
rags and his tools.
