Trade Alliance
With England
Pan-German Party Advocate
New Plan to Regain Business

Berlin, Oct. 31.-Pan- German ele-
ments are agitating TOR an economic
alliance with England as the only way
in which Germany car regain her pre-
war commercial prestige. The radical
wing OF the conservatives believe the
European situation has made such a.
union not only practicable but prob
able, and are urging that ancient hates
be forgotten and an understanding
reached between the two nations.
England and not America, is consider
ed the chief factor with which Ger
many must reckon in international
and European commerce.
writer's in the newspapers discuss
at length the problem of allaying
what they say is an unabating anti
German feeling among the English.
The Kreuz Zeitung, the old organ
of the monarChists, says in an editor
ial: IF we have in mind any foreign
alliance only England can be coflsld-
cred. | am fully aware that I will
meet with the earnest opposition of
many Of my comrades when 1 sug-
geSt an alliance. with England, which
has done everything to destroy us. In
spite of it / hazard to recommend an
alliance with England on the follow
ing grounds:
Politics are not founded on sym
pathies. That is the first lesson that
the honest German should learn from
his English cousin. We should pos
Sess enough cleverness to put SYM
pathy out of our politics and as a
wise business people travel with the
! partner who can make the going
| profitable.
And that England certainly can,
| do"

Start Liver.

You're bilious, sluggish. constipat-
ed. You feel headachy. your stomach
may be sour, your breath bad, your
skin sallOw, and you believe you
need vile, dangerous calOmel to start
liver and bowels.
Here's my guarantee! Ask your
druggist for bottle Of Dodson's s
Liver Tone and take a spoonful to-
night. II it doesn't start your liver
and straighten you right up better
than calomel. and without gripping
and making you sick, want you to
go back to the store and get your
money.
Take calomel to-day and to-mor-
row you will feel weak and sick and
nauseated. Don't lose a day. Take
a spoonful Of harmless, vegetable
Dodson's Liver Tone tonight and
