A CONTEMPLATE PROCEEDING.

While the CORPORATION mer on the senate committee @ Judiciary are
delaying the vote on the question OF confirming Louis L. Brandels
appointment to the supreme court, other opponents representing ne
same interests are working overtime elsewhere. They have ven enlisted
the aid of feminine snobbshness.
The financial interests understand perfectly that o n the vital ques-
tons of constitutional law whatever is boldly asserted and plauAbIy
maintained is law" They want their w creatures and Ill their
creature O. the supreme court. They want n o able, determined man to
intimdatet the boldness of their judges or to mar the plausibllty OF their
decisions.
So they have set the tongues of women wagging. The country VIII
probably be surprised to know that a very considerable social element
Washnpton-a very influential caste, regards the qualifications OF
~ public servant by his W or his famnys social acceptabihty. At the
public functions the wife OF a judge of the supreme court or OF a sena-
for takes the rank of her husband. The supreme court takes precedence
wei the senate, and sc down the line
Now, some OF the ladies at Washington are ndustriously affecting
q shrup of horror at the thoughts OF a Jewess taking the rank OF the
wife of a United States supreme court judge-a Jewess actually taking
precedence oye a senator's wife. The fact that Mrs. Brande1s is known
to he one OF the lost refined and cultivated women in the country does
not count. :

A LEADERSHIP.

Last January, says the New York World, James R. Mann as Repub-
Gcan leader in the house was standing by the administration Oh behalr
of reasonable Measure for the national defense. Early last March
found him voting at the head of 1O1 other Republicans for the Melee
resolution in surrender of American rights as demanded by the
kaiser. His leadership next found expression last week in sneerng and
naleyolent comment on the presidents address to congress i'll rela-
tom TO the submarine crisis. At the end of the week, posing a sin favor
of an immediate enactment of the senate army bill, he lnslstenty acted
sc as to postpone consideration of the measure.
This ends the descent OF James R. Mann from a worthy position
OF house Republican leadership to a state where personal spite and OBJ
struct;ve demagogy ire the governing factors. Only three months-but
the fall is as complete a that of Lucifer at the lowest deeps OF the
depths
Whatever Ia be the condition of Republican, leadership outside
of concress that of the house in congress is hopelessy bankrupt, as
all SET. 1t remains now to nam a receivership to take i've the
wreckape and consider ways and means of rehabilitation.

CALOMEL DYNAN|TES
 A SLUGGISH LIVER
Crashes Into Sour Bile, Making You Sick and You Lose Days
 Work.

Calomel salivatesl It's mercury Calomel acts like dynamite on a sluggish liver When calomel comes into contact with sour bile ii crashes into it causing cramping and nausea.
 If you feel bilious. headaehy constipated and all knocked out, just go to your druggist and get a 50-eent bottle of Dodson's Liver Tone, which is a harmless vegetable substitute for dangerous eaiomel. Take a spoonful and if it doesn't start your liver and straighten you np better and quicker than nasty calomel and without making you sick you just go hack and get your money.
 If you take calomel today you will be sick and nauseated tomorrow; besides, it may salivate you, while if you take Dodson's Liver Tone you will wake up feeling great full of ambition and ready for work or play. It's harmless. pleasant and safe to give to children; they like it. --Ady.
