Starts your liver without making
You sick and can not
saliy1to.

Every druggist in town-youI
druggist and everybody's druggist
has noticed a great falling-of in the
sale of calomel. They all give the
same reason. Dodson's Liver Tone
is taking its place.
"Calomel is dangerous and people
know it, while Dodson's Liver Tone
is perfectly safe and gives better re-
SUITS" said a prominent local drug
gist. DodsonS Liver Tone is per-
sonally guaranteed BY every drug
gist who sells it. A large bottle
costs but a few cents, and if it fails to
give easy relief in every case Of liver
sluggishness md constipation, you
have only to ask for your money
back.
Dodson's Liver Tone is pleasant
tasting, purely vegetable remedy,
harmless to both children and adults.
Take spoonful at night and wake
up feeling fine; no biliousness, sick
headache, acid stomach or consti-
pated bowels. It doesn't grippe or
cause inconvenience all the next
day like violent calomel.

NATIONAL
PROHIBITION

The necessary number of states have given
assent to ratification of the federal prohibition
amendment and on the first of next June the
manufacture and sale of liquor are forbidden by
law Social drinking will become an abandoned
custom and arranging the appropriate service OF
wines for formal dinner will become one OF the
lost arts.
The United States is to make the experiment
of nationwide prohibition. If it proves salts
factory here other nations will doubtless adopt
it.
It was decided that the best form of en-
bodving this great change would be in the form
of an amendment to the Constitution. This VIII
ensure the most vigorous enforcement of the law,
and will enable the effect of it upon the nation to
be speedily observed.
The fact that so many of the states have
consented to ratification is significant OF a great
change in public opinion. few years ago 1t
would have been thought absolutely impossible
that the United States should go 'bone dry with
in the lifetime of the present generation. Even
among those who heartily approved OF the prln-
ciple of prohibition, it would have seemed ncon-
ceivable that the nation should adopt 1t. Ad-
mitting that the use of alcohol was subject to
great abuse, would the public stand for It's
}hdrawal?
The fact that the nation entered into war
md that prohibition was strictly enforced IN the
! army gave great impetus to it's advance. The
tion-wi5ie pTsrbtios has been
morel and more confirmed in the minds of people
in general The proof of this is the rapid re-
sponse which the states have made in ratifylng
the amendment.
The legislation will undoubtedly Danish alto
pether some existing evils and minimize others.
It will be the plain duty of every citizen OF the
United States to conform to the law both in the
letter and the spirit.

A GRAND Old
JUDGE

No doubt but what Mississippi has some very
able and learned Judges presiding over her
courts, but we would not trade our grand old
Judge Neville for any two in the state, on an
even swap. We use the word "old' in connection
with Judgu Neville's name but reverently and
with all tH honor that the word carries and I'M
plies. Ys, the Judge is growing old in age, ripe
in experihce, careful and considerate in the dis
charge o7 his duties; mercy is extended to the
wrong dJer when he comes to stand before the
bar and justice is at all times tempered with
mercy in the execution of the law against poor,
sinful and depraved humanity. II is pleas
ure as we'll as profitable to hear Judge Neville de-
liver his charge to the grand jury.
This District Unfortunate indeed to have
such an able, fair and impartial Judge to preside
over it's courts. May his days be extended, his
usefulness multiplied and his happiness secure

PUBLICITY AND THE
PEACE CONFERENCE

It is hard for the American people to under
stand the reserves of European diplomacy In
a country where every male citizen has some
share in the government, the processes of govern
ing bodies are public. The American nation
knows day by day the discussions and decisions OF
Congress and only in stress of great emergency
is censorship of any kind resorted to. Naturally
there was dissatisfaction at the idea that the
peace conference, whose actions are of mHch
Importance to us ALL should sit behind closed
DOORS We approve President Wilson's remon-
strances and trust that these will have their re-
suit and that the deliberations of the conference
will have due publicity.

AS THEY COME
/ BACK

What do we expect of our boys as we see
them coming back after their months OF army
discipline perhaps with one, two or three gold
service stripes on the left sleeve?
IT is hard to tell. Different natures react
to similar environment so differently. But we
should prophesy that the army training will rem
der them more exact in every way, that they will
think less of the material side Of life and more
of it's real intent, and that they will feel strongly
the responsibilities and duties of citizenship.
What will they expect of US, changed by these
months of watching and waiting? They will ex-
pect us to be more earnest, of wider sympathles
and greater tolerence. If we have not gained
these qualities our experience of war and grief
and axiety and sacrifice has done little for US.

BILL SAWYER'S LETTER

towns it is not so bad, and yet
it is bad enough, but in our
cities it is something awful in
the spring and summer. have
been there and seen with my
own eyes. If this change in
modern dressing keeps up the
pace for the next 25 years like
it has gone for the last Is
years, the time is coming when
some of ovr women will consid-
er themselves "alI dressed up"
when they have on nothing
more than a finger ring ard a
tucking comb. Away back
yonder when sin broke loose
in this old world and Mother
Eve was caught without any
panties on, she grabbed a fig
leaf, for that was the best she
could do and ! have no criticism
to make of her. But this mod
ern way some of our women
dress is hurtful in many ways.
| don't think it healthful for the
woman and know it's bad on a
mans eyes-that is, it used to
be on mine, but it effects me
little, if any, at this time. Its
for the good Of our boys today
that / would be glad to see our
women dress in a way to avoid
too much scrutiny by our young
men. Its alright to economic
land to conserve for the good of
our government but not to the
extent that it will cause our
women to dress so scantly that
it will cause our young men, and
perhaps some Of our older men,
to be forced to give away to
sin Of lust and beastly passion.
II do hope the mothers of our
country will not permit Old
Dame Fashion to dictate to
them the new styles when it
comes to making dresses for
their girls, but instead, let their
better judgment rule and gov
ern, and take my word for it,
mothers, you will never have
cause to regret it. When l was
courting betty 35 years ago
she wore a hustle and hoops
that is, she said she did-and it
looked that way to me, but that
was all tomfoolery, yet steel
wire was cheap and cotton was
worth only seven cents a pound
in those days and it didn't cost
much to fool a fellow about the
weight and shape of his girl, but
today it seems that a girl de-
sires to show to the world her
exact shape with as little dress
ing as possible. The fact forces
us to give her credit for not try
ing to win by fraudulent means
or to gain by misrepresenting
the true conditions that exist.

Dear Editor:
Your note received asking me
to write something on the drive
for the help of the women and
children of Palestine who are
dying for the want of food. If
| I can write anything that will
90 to help our county raise the
amount we are asked for, l will
feel that this weeks letter will
have served purpose. My
text will be found in the Book
|of Psalms, 72nd chapter and 4th
verse, and reads as follows:
"He will save the children of the
needy, and will break to pieces
the oppressor. From the lit
Ierature you sent me, under
stand that this money which we
are asked to raise, is to supply
the needs of the poor, hungry
and destitute women and child
rem, and especially the latter,
who have been driven from
their homes in Palestine. Of
course this is all the work of the
dirty, murderous Turks, who,
years ago demanded the Armen-
ians to deny their Christ, which
they refused to do, and for all
these years the Turks have been
waiting for a chance to kill and
destroy the people who refused
to worship the Turkish god.
With the help and assistance of
the hellish Huns the Turks have
been able, to a great extent, to
carry out their purpose. But
the Lord hath declared that He
will save the children of the
needy. He will not only do
this, but He says He will break
to pieces the oppressor. This
is happy thought, and we only
have to do our part and the
Lord will bring it to pass. Let
us go back about three thous-
and years or perhaps a little
longer, and see what we find.
Pharaoh, the Egyptian King,
was an oppressor. He oppressed
the children of Israel and on one
occasion, in order to destroy
lthe child Moses, he was oppres-
sive to the extent that he order
| ed each eldest-born baby of the
Israelites to be slain, and we
find today that the Egyptian
people are broken up and scat
tered to the four winds of the
earth. The Lord surely broke
to pieces the oppressor at that
time and He is going to break
to pieces the oppressor of to-
day. Germany oppressed the
children of the needy in Bel
gium and France, and the Lord,
true to his promise, has surely
broken to pieces that nation.
Germany is torn asunder, her
people are in turmoil, and as a
nation, broken to pieces because
she oppressed the children of
the needy. How thankful and
happy we, as a nation, should
be because no such crime and
condemnation is being laid up
on us, but on the other hand,
we as a Christian nation, are be-
ing given an opportunity to help
and assist the unfortunate vic
Tins of these cruel oppressors.
It's a solemn duty and obligation
we owe to ourselves and to
them. So let every person in
Stone County donate literally to
this call next week and surely
1--we will feel better and even be
blessed for having done so. This
i is my feeble appeal in behalf of
the starving and suffering hu-
manity in the Near East. Men,
do your best.

Provides for Private Owhership and

tonight by the House, 2O3 to 159 The
measure goes to the Senate, but it will
not be taken up there until the reg

A majority Of the Democratic men,
bers opposed the bill, after tkeir fail
ure to eliminate the provision for govS
ernment guarantee Of revenues of the
carriers for the first SIX months Of
renewed private operation.
Representative Sims, of Tennessee,
ranking Democratic member Of the
House interstate commerce committee
that framed the measure, led the fight
on the guaranty, declaring Subsidy
motion to eliminate it was defeated,
2eo to 165, on substantially "a political
division.
Attacks Labor Section
The House reaffirmed, 253 to 112 its
stand on the labor section, providing
only for voluntary conciliation of la
bor disputes. Representative Kitchen,
Of North Carolina, former Dcmocra-
tic leader, attacked the labor section
as leaving the settlement OF disputes
largely with the railway unions. Ffc
declared "the brotherhoods could null

representatives to the boards
created to settle controversies.

by separate roll calls, the House spetn
the day in considering numerous ex-
tensions of the powers Of the Inter
