Liver Tone is a perfectly safe, easy

of calomel for constipation, sluggish

There are limitations of Dodson S

the coarse mouthings of Roosevelt

FRENCH CELEBRATE
BASTILE'S FALL

Paris, July IA Throughout
France today the people are holding
a holiday, and celebrating the fall
of the Bastile, which took place July
IA, 1883. Today's celebration is
distinctly burgeois, of course, for
those who dream of restoration of
royalty, frown upon the fourteenth's
festivities. They, the aristocrates of
the population, content themselves
with attending the great French re-

Uncle Henry Watterson has so far
receded from his original contention
that President Wilson was crook
and a generally undesirable citizen
that he is now moved to admit that
Mr.. Wilson has shown himself a
leader courageous and far-seeing as
well as faithful shepherd of both the
public and party" Like most men
OF genius Uncle Henry is not bothl'
cred by the bugbear of consistency.
and when he finds that he is wrong
he doesn't hesitate to get right even
at the sacrifice of his first opinion.
That is one reason why he is always
interesting. Mr. Watterson has been
worshipping the Star-eyed Goddess
OF Reform for the last forty years
as figure of speech invisible to the
naked eye, and in the wisdom of his
age he has at last discovered her in
the man he denounced as a crook in
a moment of pique because of some
now almost forgotten incident dur
ing the last presidential campaign.

The Tampa Times warns up with
elaborate and almost indignant argu-
ment in combating the "heresy" of
the Miami Herald in suggesting a
commission form of government for
the State. There is no need to get
worked up over that issue, for it
has hardly as yet emerged into even
the academic stage and doubtless it
will never in our time be taken Sc
riously as desirable form of gov
eminent for any State in the Union.
Commission government for cities
has probably come to stay, but it is
not logical sequence that what is
good for cities is also good for an
entire commonwealth in which the
element of magnitude alone would
perhaps be sufficient to defeat the
theory. People get more intelligent
and capable as the years go by. bet

turbed or practically abrogated in
large degree as would be necessary
under a commission system for the
State.

And holly lending glow,
Where soft lights glimmer low
And glad feet come and go,

to have been committed at that time.
