There's no reason why person

bottle of Dodson's Liver Tone-a
perfect substitute for calomel.
1t is a pleasant, vegetable LIQUID
which will start your liver just as

Children and grown folks can take
Dodson's Liver Tone, because it is
perfectly harmless.
Calomel is a dangerous drug. It
is mercury and attacks your bones.
Take a dose of nasty calomel today
and you will feel weak, sick and nau-

Liver Tone instead and you will wake
up feeling great. No more bilious

don't find Dodson's Liver Tone acts
better than horrible calomel your
money is waiting for you.-Ady.

CITIZENS OPPOSE OIL
 TANK AT MOUNTAIN GROVE

The Connecticut Oil company, a state organization having its principal stockholders in Waterbury, again made valiant efforts to have the Board of Aldermen act favorably on their petition to establish an underground oil tank at the corner of Mountain Grove street and Fairfield avenue.
 Judge Burns of Waterbury, presi- dent of the company, appklred be- fore the aldermen, and asked that the petition of his concern be granted. He claimed that the tank his com pany had planned to establish would hold 5000 gallons of gasoline and did his utmost to impress the aldermen with the wonderful things a company like his could do for the city, and just how much they looked after the welfare of their patrons.
 Attorneys Jacob s. Klein and David s. Day appeared in opposition and informed the council that the man ufacturing concerns, the residents of that district and the Park Comnais- sion, all were against granting the petition.
 As Is usual in such cases the matter ended with no definite action being taken, although it is not probable that the oil companuy will appes.' N' an- other hearing in the next few weeks.

ALDERMAN WOULD MAKE TREES TELL vALOR OF HEROES

As a mark of respect to the men and women of Bridgeport who have given their lives to their country in the late world war; a resolution that if adopted by the Board of Aldermen, will place in some part of this city a young tree bearing the name of some Bridgeporter who has fallen, was in troduced at last nights meetingYof the board by Alderman Edward T. Ham, iIton. Alderman Hamilton introduced the resolution at the request of City Clerk J. Alex H. Robinson.
 The selection of the site where the trees are to be planted will be left to the Park Commission, although Beechwood Park was suggested as a, place at the meeting last night.
 The resolution in full as referred to the Board of Park Commissioners is as follows:
 Be It Resolved, That this Common Council suggest to the Board of Park Commissioners for their consideration in connection with the development of Beechwood Park, or any other suita- ble place that they may select, that at an appropriate time an avenue of young trees be planted each one to represent a son or daughter of Bridgeport who has given up his or her life for the country, and that each tree so planted be marked in some suitable way with a name plate bear ing the name of one of the aforesaid heroes.
