Calomcl loses you a day! You

Calomel attacks the bones and

When you feel bilious, sluggish.
constipated and all knocked out, and
believe you need dose Of dangerous
calomel, just remember that your

large bottle Of Dodson's Liver Tone,
which is entirely vegetable and
pleasant to take, and Is a perfect
substitute for calomel. It is guar.

PREDICT DROP IN SHOE PRICES.
Boston Shoe Men Say the Change
Downward May he Year or.

Boston, Aug. 12.-Predictions of
decided drop in the price Of shoes
we're made by leather and shoe man
ufacturers, who testified to-day at
the grand jury Investigate ton Of the
high cost of living being conducted
by District Attorney Pelletier. The
-oncensus Of opinion, however, was
that the decline might not come for
another year.
Witnesses said that women de-
mnnded Il high grade OF shoes and
were willing to pay for them. One
leading firm, it was brought out, had
millions Of dollars worth of cheaper
grades Of sole leather on hand, which
the manufacturers would not buy be-
cause it did not come up to the
standard demanded by the purchas-
crs OF shoes.
Former Governor Douglas and Ed
ward P. Douglas were among the
shoe manufacturers who were heard
to-day. Hollis P. Davis, president Of
the Massachusetts, l,atail Dealers
Association, and other retailers were
also interrogated.
The district attorneys Office said
that one man called as a witness. q
representative OF a large Wholesale
house, declined to testify on the
ground that his evidence might tend
to incriminate himself.

FEDERAL CONTROL or STORAGE
Urged by Senator us Means OF Retluc-
ing Cost Of Living.

Washington, Aug. 13. - Federal
regulation Of cold storage Of food
was urged in the Senate to-day by
Senator Mcclellan, Democrat, of Ten
nessee, as a certain means Of reduc-
ing the cost OF living, and as the
only remedy for the most fragrant
piece Of profiteering that can be i'm
agined."
Speaking in support Of the bill,
which was first introduced in 1913,
and now reintroduced before the
Senate interstate commerce sub-com-
mittee that is considering the high
cost Of living recommendations Of
President Wilson, Senator Mcclellan
said that IL the bill had been passed
in 1913 he felt sure the present con-
ditions rs to excessive living cost
would not exist.
The meat packers were charged
by the Tennessee Senator with using
cold storage facilities TO fix the food
prices.
at is being used by the packers"
he said, "for the purpose Of con-
trolling prices. AS used by the pack
ers 1T preserves in seasons of plenty
and permits them to withhold such
quantities Of foodstuffs from the
market as to make season Of scar
city at any time they see fit, and thus
they increase the price to the con-
suming public" Explaining his bill
more fully, Senator Mcclellan said it
would limit the time foods could be
held in cold storage.
'Heretofore have been unable to
get any action on this bill," said MIR.
Mcclellan, but | am constrained to
believe that under existing condi-
tions we will get action at this time"
"My bill does not fetter cold stor-
age in any way, but it regulates it
SO that the people can get the very
best benefits out of it,
Citing recent statements Of the
Federal trade commission concern
ing food held in cold storage, Sena-
tor Mcclellan said they showed vast
increases over the amounts stored
last year. He compared retail prices
and showed large increases in price
despite the increased supplies that

asserted, 'are ,monopoized. The,

THE price the packers pay and the
price at which they sell is out Of al
proportion, and they never will come
down until eggs are stamped and reg

'Present cold storage practices are

ator Mckellar declared, asserting
that meat and poultry often are held
too long in storage. "Chickcns." he

Thousands Have Discovered DR..

Dr.. Edwards Olive Tablets the substi-
tute for calomel - are mild but sure
laxative, and their effect on the liver Is
almost instantaneous. They are the result
of Dr.. Edwards determination not to treat
liver and bowel complaints with calomel
His efforts to Danish it brought out these
little olive colored tablets.
These pleasant little tablets do the good
that calomel does but have no bad after
effects. They don't fnjure the teeth like
strong liquids or calomel. They take hold
of the trouble and quickly correct II. Why
cure the liver at the expense Of the teeth
Calomel sometimes plays havoc with the
gums. So do strong liquids. It is best not
to take caiomeA, but to let Dr.. Edwards

Great EnuIish Painter.

The habits, mannerisms and meth
DDS of the great are always interest
ing. Sir Joshua Reynolds used a
spade-shaped palette, with a handle
and without hole. His brushes had
handles 10 inches long and he always
stood while painting. His studio was
an octagonal room 20 by 16 feet, IL
Illuminated by single square window
of modern size, the sill about 91s feet
from the floor. He was steady and
consistent worker and frequently
complained of idle visitors who did
not seem to realize the value of his
time. He ranks as the greatest Eng
fish painter of that time. He died in
February of 1892 of an affection of
the liver and was buried in st. Pauls
cathedral.
