There's no reason why a person
should take siekening, salivating Gallo
mel when a few cents buys a large
bottle of Dodson's Liver Tone-a per-
feet substitute for ealomel.
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
Dodson's Liver Tone, because 1t is
perfectly harmless.

Small Per Cent Per Pound on Meat

Of the meat packers no benefited the
public consumers, according to a re-
port filed by Stuart Chase, an expert
accountant, filed with federal trade
commission, for use by the senate com
mittee that is now investigating some
Of the reasons why the five big pack
ers show such huge profits.
Chase, who was testifying at the
hearings on the Kendrick bill, provid-
ing government supervision of the
meat industry, said no one knows ac-
curately what the packers profits are,
because their method of bookkeeping
covers up their real earnings. He de-
clared that the examination of the
books of Armour & Co, Morris & Co,
Swift Co, Wilson & Co. and the Gu
daily Co. showed their aggregate profit
in 1912 were $18.715 geo, and 1917 $685.
$4,000.
Based on capital stock, Chase said
Morris & Co.'S profits in 1917 were
267.7 per cent and that on the same
basis Armour d Co.'S profits in 1915
were 114.2 per cent. Because of a later
increase in the capital stock of the
percentage for the Armour people had
dropped to 271 in 1917.
Swift's profits in 1917 on the same
basis were SO per cent. while those of
the Cudahy Co. in 1917 were 23.2 per
cent based on capital stock and sur
plus Wilson's earnings for the same
year were 26.6 per cent on the COM
bined capital and surplus.
