TRY 1T! SUBSTITUTE
FOR NASTY CALOMEL
Start Your Liver Without Max
ing You Sick and Can
Not Salivate.

Every druggist in town-your
druggist and everybody'S drug
gist has noticed a great falling off
in the sale of calomel. They all
givethe same reason. DodSon'S
Liver Tone is taking the place of
it.
"Calomel is dangerous and peo-
pie know it, while Dodson's Liv-
er Tone is perfectly safe and
gives better results" said prom
inent local Druggist. Dodson's
Liver Tone is personally guaran-
teed by every druggist who sells
it. A large bottle costs but a few
cents, and if it fails to give you
easy relief in every case of liver
sluggishness and constipation,
you have only to ask for your
money back.
Dodson's Liver Tone is a pleas
ant-tasting, purely vegetable REM
edy, harmless to both children
and adults. Take spoonful at
night and wake up in the morn
ing feeling fine; no billiousness,
sick headache, acid stomach, or
constipated bowels. 1t doesn't
grippe or cause inconvenience all
the next day like violent calomel
Take a dose of calomel today and
tomorrow you feel weak, sick and
nauseated. Don't lose a days
work Take Dodson'S Liver Tone
instead and feel fine, full of Wig

REMOVE THAT ROCK!
No Need for New Machine to Do Away With Carlton Street Ob- struction Says Alderman Curtis.

That there is no excuse for the non- removal at once of the "C;lmOu1tage' rock on Carlton street was made eNi- dent this afternoon. Alderman Cur tis when informed of the statement of Chairman Rossberg that the water board would have to wait until the common council voted to allow the board to spend $1,10O for an air compressor to do the work, said that he would vote against purchasing such d machine as he felt it was un- necessary for Carlton street. He said that the board of public works had the tools to remove the rock. While MT. ROSsberg was of the opinion that the tools of the board of public works were out of date for the work, City Engineer William II. Hall said that the board would furnish hand drills so that the work could be done If there is any loss to the public works board this will be covered by the bonds put up by the property own CTS. New houses are going up on Carlton street and these will require water mains so that the feeling is that the delay is uncalled for.

SEN FEINERS DO
 NOT LIKE SCHEMI
Oppose Plan Offered for Settlement of Irish Diffculty-Want
 No Convention.

Dublin. Aug. 31, (Correspondenc| of The Associated Press.)-The lates proposal put forward with 8 view t, settling the Irish question is to hav a new convention. and to make it al elected constituent assembly and pub fish a detailed scheme for Irish self government This suggestion emerge from the office of the Irish Propor , tional Representation society. The last convention was a nomi mated body chosen by the governmen and, though it included many men o representative position, the peopl had no voice in it's selection. The qey convention, it is urged, should giv real self-determination by letting tn people choose their own representa- tives.
 The argument that Ireland has all ready chosen its representatives ana made them mostly Sim Fein repub lcans is met by an examination ot the figures of the last election witl d view to proving that the result greatly exaggerated t'.C preponder ance of the republicans.
 The contention is that the onl. true way to arrive at Irish opinion is by proportional representation. is suggested that the new convention should consist of 1O5 members elect cd by the existing constituencies S grouped as to have ten members fo each group, each clectOr having single transferable vote. The sol function of the convention would h to prepare a scheme Of seIf-govern ment.
 In Sim Fein quarters the plal
 finds no favor, and there is no reasol to suppose that they would otficiall, recognize the new convention an. more than the old one. The Ulste party, which came into the old con vention, would be hostile to the new one. The antagonists on both ex tremes stand pat"
