CAL LOMEL SALWATES
AND MAKES YOU SICK
Acts like dynamite on a sluggish
liver and you lose
days work.

There's no reason why a person
should take sickening, salivating Gallo
mel when so cents buys a large bottle
of Dodson's Liver Tone-a perfect
substitute for calomel.
1t is a pleasant, vegetable liquid
which will start your liver just as
surely as calomel, but it doesn't
make you sick and can not salivate.
Children and grown folks can take
Todson's Liver Tone, because it is
perfectly harmless.
Calomel is a dangerous drug 1t is
mercury and attacks your bones. Take
dose of nasty calomel today and
you will feel weak, sick and nause-
ated tomorrow. Don't lose a days
work. Take a spoonful of Dodson's
Liver Tone instead and you will
wake up feeling great. No more bill
iousness, constipation, sluggishness,
headache, coated tongue or sour stom-
ach. Your druggist says if you don't
find Dodson's Liver Tone acts better
than horrible calomel your money is
waiting for you.

Today, Billie Ritchie is here in a
rip-roaring two-reel prison comedy, a
screamingly funny take-off of Sing

do to the convicts is a shame. Billie
Richie and his blackmailers certainly
got theirs.

has been wrought in the forms of
civilization under which we live. We
of today, however, have learned 10
study history as a warning. The
lives of our ancestors rise before
us with ghostly admonition, lest we
also revert to the ancient passions
to which our fathers shamefully yield
ed. The playwright finds high-mind-
edness and loyalty asserting a still
stronger claim on every mans soul
than even in the era of chivalry. This
optimistic view he has embodied in a
powerful story of how young civil
engineer, deeply in love. yet sorely
tempted by another woman, keeps his
manhood-and thus retrieyes the
honor of a false knight of long ago.

$4,000 FOR PLATT PARK
Appropriation for Repairs Due to Re-
cent Storm Approved by Senate.

Washington, March 25.-Ten thou
sand dollars was added to the emer'
gency appropriation bill in the sen
ate for the Platt National park al
Sulphur, Okla, to repair damage done
by a recent storm. The amendment
was accepted by a vote Of q to 23
For a long time there has been SEN
timent in congress that the state of
Oklahoma should take over the park
and maintain it as a state institution
without assistance from the federal
government, and this sentiment
cropped out in the debate. Senator
Martin of Virginia said that the gov
ernment should cease making appro
priations for the Sulphur park and
intimated he believed the town OF
Sulphur was profiting by reason of
the government maintaining the park.
The park had its defenders, among
whom were the two Oklahoma sena'
tors, who pointed out that in number
of visitors last summer, the PLATE
park was third of the national re-
sorts.

sections of Illinois, Missouri, Kentucky,

tie were found grouped ON the levee for
protection from the flood. Some evil
dences of destitution we're found and re-
ported to the War Department, with the
recommendation that Federal aid be sup
piled at once. Sentiment among plant
ers and levee officials, however, was
found to be in opposition to the wide
spread distribution of rations by tn"

peared to be that, if the Go~rnmcht
would aid in the construction oT pcTma-

would care for its own housing and food
problems. The exact report of the COM
mittee will not be determined upon until
after the conclusion Of the forthcoming
hearings.
The trip of the Flood Committee was
directed by John A. Fox, secretary and
manager Of the Mississippi River Levce

upon flood problems. In appreciation Of
Mr.. Fox's services and his assistance in
overcoming obstacles incident to the trip,

Oyster Dealers Warned,

Washington, Sept. 25.--With the
opening Of the oyster season the food
and drug ollicials OF the Department
Of Agriculture have given notice to
those who ship oysters in Interstate
commerce that they will continue
their active inspection to prevent
shipment Of polluted oysters or ship
ment Of shucked oysters that have
been soaked to increase their bulk.
Those IL charge Of this work re-
port that the oyster trade i'm general
has expressed a desire to co-oDerate
with the department in obtaining a
grade Of oysters free from adultera-
ton OF any kind. Many have asked
the department to sul gcst a method
or washing oysters without spelling
them to an extent that constitutes
adnltcration under the regulations.
The departments answer to such
inQuircrs is that dealers are entirely
able to determine for themselves
whether or not any particular method
or washing results in an appreciable
increase in the volume OF the oysters
or in the amount 0! juice that nor
mally should be present.

CITADE CADET TRIES TO END
Life by Leaping 10 Feet to Cement
Paving Below.

Charleston, Sept. 25.-Corporal
George p. Ashe, Of York, a Citadel
cadet, aged 20. of this years sopho-
more class, was prevented from TAX
ing his life early yesterday morning
by what his friends believe to be
nothing short Of miracle. He
jumped from the third floor gallery
to the inner cement court of the
barracks building, distance of 40
feet. and, although painfully hurt
about the face and body, has been
declared by the attending physician
to have good chance for recovery.
On discovery Of the attempted sui
eide by one of the guards, DR.. Cath
cart. Citadel physician. was sum
moned and made an examination, af-
ter which he said the mans chances
for recovery we're good.
Temporary dependency is believ-
ed to have caused young Ashes at
tempt to kill himself.
Yesterday morning, q short while
before revelle, Perry Ashe was awak-
ened by the movements of his bro
ther In their room and asked him
what was the matter. His reply was,
Il can't sleep" Perry then dozed
off. but later noticed his brother sit
a Bible. Believing that his brother
was restless and could not sleep,
Perry pulled the cover up and went
sound asleep again. He knew moth
ing Of Georges plunge to the cement
court until awakened by a guard,
who informed him that his brother
had "fallen" from the gallery.
No one saw the plunge, but a
guard Oh duty at the gate heard the
thump Of the body, and rushing out
found Corporal Ashe lying on the
hard, paved court. He at once sum-
moncd help and the young man was
removed to the cadet hospital in an
unconscious condition.
In MS room was found the follow
ing note:
Dear mother and all my brothers
and sisters and friends:
"Good-bye to all Of you, and God
bless you, especially mother. Loss
of mind and despondency. (Signed)
George Ashe."
Mrs. Ashe, mother Of the cadet,
was notified at once Of her sons in
jury and arrived in Charleston last
night. The boys father is dead.
