full will clean your sluggish liver bet

Dodson's Liver Tone is real liver
medicine. You'll know it next morn
ing because you will wake up feeling
fine, your liver will be working, your
headache and dizziness gone, your
stomach will be sweet and your bowels
regular. You will feel like working:
you'll be cheerful; full of vigor ard
ambition.
Dodson's Liver Tone is entirely
vegetable, therefore harmless and can
not salivate. Give it to your children.
Millions of people are using DOdson's
Liver Tone instead of dangerous caio-
mel now. Your druggist will tell you
that the sale of calomel is almost
stopped entirely here.-Adv.

The Windham county court house at
Newfane is always the subject of cen

tractive village. 1t has a history which
is unique. About 1890 the main part
of the structure was erected on New
fame hill, an act having been passed
February, 1877, making Newfane the
shire town of Windham county. In the
early settlement of the town village
had grown up on Newfane hill,
the summit of the elevation which
rises cone-like in the center of the town,
and is about two miles west of the
present village. Thither the courts were
removed from Westminster. From 1890
to 1920 the village on the hill consisted
of meeting house, academy, three
stores, two hotels and variety of shops
and about 20 residences, and was a
farming center for large and fertile
farms surrounding it. Standing upon
the summit of the hill, the village af.
forded an extensive and picturesque
prospect. From here could be seen
not less than so townships in Vermont
New Hampshire and Massachusetts and
from the same eminence appeared Hay

DUPONT FOUNTAIN
MODEL COMPLETED

The model OF the beautiful memo
rial fountain to be erected in memory
OF Admiral Dupont in place OF the
statue now in Dupont circle, is today
ir the hands Of the sculptors in New
York, and the first stages of the work
are completed.
The new statue. approved by the
Commission of Fine Arts, will cost
approximately $4,000 and will be one
of the finest in the country.
The rather awkward looking statue
of Admiral Dupont which has stood
in the circle for more than twenty
five years has long been an eye-sore
to his relatives and friends. and some
time ago permission was asked Of
Congress to erect q new and more ft-
ting monument
Congress Acts FavOrabIy.
Congress, by act of February. 1917.
authorized removal of the monument
and the erection in its place of a new
memorial to Admiral Dupont The
bill Furthermore provided that "the
present statue be turned over to the
donors of the memorial for relocation
outside the District Of Columbia" and
that 'the new memorial be approved
by the Commission OF Fine Arts and
that the United States be put to no
expense whatever in the matter"
Mrs. Willard Salisbury, wife Of the
Senator from Delaware, and niece Of
Admiral Dupont, was the leader in
the movement to effect the removal OF
the old statue and the substitution of
the new one. She and other relatives
did not regard the present statue as
q work of art suitable to the place 1t
occupies. and provided that in con-
sideration of being allowed to remove
Il the new statute should cost the
Government nothing at all
Features of Fountain.
The new memorial will be about
twenty feet in height, With q bowl
twenty feet across and an upper basin
about ten feet smaller. The water as
il overfiows the basin will frame the
figures in the supporting column, The
Sea-" THE Wind" and THE Stars"
and not hide them, as Isl usually the
case. There will be appropriate in
scriptions on the curbing Of the pool
or on the lower part of the,supporting
column Daniel Chester French and
Henry Bacon, both of NeH York. are
sculptor and architect, respectively.
According to the report Of the Com
mission OF Fine Arts, there are other
portrait statues in Washington for
which memorials might be substi-
tuted to the advantage OF the appear
Ance OF the city and to the memory
OF the person commemorated."
1t has long been maintained that
fountains with flowing water are
much more appropriate to the climate
of Washington, as well as to its ap-
pearance, than the bronze figures
which occupy so many of the parks.
