CALOMEL DYNAMITES
A SLUGGISH LIVER
Crashes Into Sour Bile, Making You
Sick and You Lose a
Days Work.

Calomel salivates! It's mercury.
Calomel acts like dynamite on slug
gish liver. When calomel comes into
contact with sour bile it crashes into
it, causing cramping and nausea.
If you feel bilious, headachy, con-
stipated and all knocked out, just go
to your druggist and get a bottle of
Dodsons Liver Tone for few cents
which is harmless vegetable substi-
tute for dangerous calomel. Take a
spoonful and if it doesn't start your
liver and straighten you up better and
quicker than nasty calomel and with
out making you sick, you just go back
and get your money.
If you take calomel today you'll be
sick and nauseated tomorrow; besides,

Canadian Case.
Here IS the way exchange
worked out in the case Of Canada
Last year Canada bought twice as
much in the United States as we
bought there. Under normal Condi-
tions she would have shipped gold
to the U4ted States TO pay her bal
ance and exchange would have re
manned undisturbed. But the Can
adam gold supply had run low and
an embargo had been placed on IT,
In an attempt to help the exchange
situation Canada forbade the i'm
portation OF luxuries. Despite this
and despite the helpfulness OF Eng
land IN arranging Canadian credits,

to pay a premium Of , per cent for
draft. This means that It will
pay 81 O2 for an article, the price Of
WHICH is 81 That difference Of =
per cent may mean that the order
will go to England instead of the
United States So the first step is
made toward readjusting the bal
snce American export to Canada
is cuTtailed. At the same time an
American draft for 800 in Canada
is worth $102 and this becomes an
inducement to Americans to buy IN
Canada. In this way the United
States is penalized both ways Just
because she has been selling more
than she has been buying. In this
way a basic law of trade tends 70
force conditions back to normal i.
back to that ideal state when buy
ing and selling between nations
just balances.
The Canadian case has been the
easiest We have had 20 meet. A.
one time last year Italy had bought
so heavily over here. and we had
bought so lightly in Italy, that il
was almost impossible to get eN-
change. There was no American
paper in Italian banks. The charge
for exchange at one time ran as
high as 100 per cent. This meant
that. If an Italian manufacturer
bought $4,000 worth of cotton in
New Orleans he would have to
pay premium of $4,000 on his
draft which would make the cotton
cost him 100000 Under these cir

cumstances it is likely that he
would buy his cotton in Egypt or
India as soon as conditions permit
ted Thus would the United States
lose the business. She would keep
on losing to one buyer and an
other until virtual equality be-
tween purchases here and in Italy
was established. She must either
sell less or buy more. or both, in
establishing that balance.
Despite the great loans we have
made TO France there has been a
constant exchange charge against
US OF from 5 TO 10 per cent. Spain
has had % pay premium of 90 per
cent for an American draft. These
nations will pay this premium only
while it is impossible 10 get mater
ials elsewhere. There are other
nations anxious for the trade OF
these countries on whose exchange
there is no premium at all. But We
are a creditor nation in the import
ant markets of the world and this
fact penalties our exports.
Il is occupying this position that
we make our bow as an aspirant to

this position that we vocaliZe our

the face of these facts that our
commercial organizations are cam
paignlng for an increased use OF
home made products, and for moro
production, that our vast merchant
marine may have materials tn
carry TO foreign markets. 1t is
proper that we should have the
ambition 10 supply our own needs.
and TO sell goods all around the
world There are. however. other

Well. there are just two ways IN
which payment can be made One
is by shipping gold 10 US This is
made difficult by the fact that the
world produces but $500 100000 4

Certainly there is no chance of get

The second way in which we can
be paid for our goods IS In the
goods of other countries. We can
sell them those products which
circum stances make IL possible for
US TO produce most advantageously
and economically. and buy from
them the things which they, differ
entity situated. can bring to market
more cheaply than we. This is the
method which would establish In

we can adjust exchange and estab-
lish permanent trade.

Argentina, she will not buy here.
Buying in America will slump as
other nations get back into produc-
ton. We must buy more abroad
than we sell for number of years
before exchange will get back to
normal. We must work under this
handicap.
The bright side of the prospect Is
that when less goods are sent
abroad there will be more for home
consumption. AS the supply In
creases, prices may be expected to
decline. The competition of the
foreign buyer in the American mar
ket is undoubtedly largely respon-
sible for high prices. Exchange
promises to be the bear in the mar
ket that will come to the aid Of the
American consumer.
