u. D. c. Plan ERECT
BOULDER MONUMENT
Decision TO Place Monument i'm Lot in
BeilWoOd Cemetery Reached at
Meeting Yesterday.

A movement was started yesterday
afternoon, at the first meeting of the
season of David 0. Dodd chapter
Daughters Of the Confederacy, for the
erection Of . granite boulder monu-
ment in the U. d. c.. lot at Bellwood
cemetery.
The chapters met at the home of the
president, Mrs. b. e. Benton, in Beech
street, and there was a large attend
ance. 1t was strictly business meet
ing, as the opening meeting of a sea-
son always is, and the members dis
played more than their customary en-
thusiasm as plans were discussed for
their work during the winter.
The decision to erect monument
in Bellwood cemetery was reached
after there had been rather lengthy
discussion as to ways and means
there was never any indecision about
the desire to erect the monument.
Finally it was decided that a nucleus
for the fund shall be raised by having
each member bring the sum of so
cents, at the October meeting A total
of from 5000 to $500 is expected to be
expended in identifying the plot and
erecting the monument and this sum
is to be raised by divers means, dur
ing the winter. It is hoped that the
work Of improving and identifying the
plot and erecting the monument. will
be completed early in the spring OF
nctX year.

Romance Is Spoiled.

There is a mound of earth in st.
Pauls church, at New York, that is
overgrown with long, coarse grass and
looks like an unllempt, unmarked
grave. Groups of young women from
office buildings gather in that quiet
part Of the churchyard every day at
the noon hour to eat their lunches.
Among these regular freQuenters OF
the place there has been much specula-
ton as to the meaning of this new
grave and why it should be so neg
lected. All sorts of romantic stories
have been woven about it by the i'm
aginative tales of family feuds, disap-
pointed love and the like. Yesterday
a workman Wheeled a barrow up to
this mound and began shoveling some
of it in to cart it away. There was ex-
element Immediately among the
luncheon parties. "Whose tomb Is
this?" asked one of the lunchers
breathlessly. The man looked puzzled
for a moment and then grinned. This
amt no grave, miss" he answered.
"This is just heap Of mold that we
use to fill up any place that caves in.''
And thus a romance was spoiled.

CALOMEL TODAY.
SICK TOMORROW
Dose OF Nasty CalOmel Makes You
Sick and You Lose Days Work.

Calomel salivates! It's mercury.
Calomel acts like dynamite on a slug
gish liver. When calomel comes into
contact with sour bile it crashes into
it, causing cramping and nausea.
If you feel bilious, headachy, con-
stipated and all knocked out, just go
to your druggist and get 5O-cent bot
tie Of Dodson's Liver Tone, which IS
harmless vegetable substitute for
dangerous calomel. Take a spoonful
and if it doesn't start your liver and
straighten you up better and quicker
than nasty calomel and without MAX
ing you sick, you just go back and
get your money.
If you take calomel today you'll be
sick and nauseated tomorrow; be-
sides, it may salivate you. while if
you take Dodson's Liver Tone you will
wake up feeling great, full of ambi-
ton and ready for work OR play. It's
harmless, pleasant and safe to give to
children; they like it.

Homemade Varnish.

A simple recipe for good varnisk
suitable for table tops is as follows
Mix enough lampblack with shellac
to make the mixture black, but not
enough to thicken it much. After sand
papering the wood smooth, apply two
coats of varnish, sandpapering lightly
after each coat. Over this put one
or two coats of dull varnish. This
makes the wood waterproof, preserves
it, and improves the appearance Of the
table top.

Parents Largely to Blame.

A normal child provides his own
amusements unless he is spoiled by in
diligence. Many are the complaints
that children-mOdern children-are
hard to please, that more and more
are they coming to depend upon an
expenditure of money. When children
repudiate the fascinating paper dolls
provided By the newspapers, dolls and
wardrobas that were not known in our
days, something is wrong with them.
When they want no gifts but wrist
watches and toys run by electricity
they are to be pitied for they have
reached the verge of boredom. Where
does the blame lie?
