Ugh! Calomel makes you sick. It's
horrible! Take a dose of the danger

lose day.
Calomel is mercury! When it
comes in contact with sour bile, it
crashes into it, breaking it up. Then
is when you feel that awful nausea
and cramping. If you are sluggish,
if liver is torpid and bowels consti-
pated or you have headache, dizzi-
ness, coated tongue, if breath is bad
or stomach sour, just try a spoonful
of harmless Dodson's Liver Tone to-
night.
Here's my guarantee-Go to any
drug. store G. get a bottAe of Dod-
sons Liver Tone for a few cents.
Take a spoonful and if it doesn't
straighten you right up and make
you feel fine and vigorous, go back
to the store and get your money.

Georgia. Tax Values
Increase $198,O00,OOO,
Complete Returns Show

Georgia's taxable values for 1920
will show an increase of $198,OOO, 900
over 1919. This is the figure shown
by the consolidated returns in the
office of Tax Commissioner H. J.
Fullbright, with all county arbitra-
tions settled except Monroe county.
1t is approximately the figure antici-
pated by him in his estimate furnish
ed the governor and comptroller sew
eral weeks ago.
This increase will give Georgia a
total of $1,326,194.316 in 1920; and
total revenue in round figures of
100000. 1t will take every dol
lar of this revenue to pay 1920 ap-
preparations While there will be
none left over, there probably will
be no carry-over of unpaid appro-
priations in the form of a deficit.

cox ACCUSES HARDING
OF MORE "WIGGLING"

BUFFALO, N. Y, Oct. 19.-Preach-
ing his League of Nations gospel
Monday in northwestern New York,
Governor Cox renewed assaults
against Senator Harding for alleged
"wiggling and wobbling" upon the
league issue.
To six large audiences at SYRIA
cuse, Rochester and Buffalo, and in
two rear platform addresses en- route
the Democratic presidential car.di-
date carried his preachments upon
the league declaring that it was Gin
spired by God" and pledge" to
American soldiers and mothers.
At the Broadway auditorium and
at Genessee hall Governor Cox de-
clared that Senator Harding had
made a slip" in stating that he had
been approached "unofficially' by a
French representative regarding a
world fraternity" 4
"The French government" said
Governor, Cox, very promptly and
properly denies that there have been
any official overtures of any kind.
I want to ask Senator Harding
whether it is not true that the rep
resentative of France was not Maui
rice de Kobra, of Paris. II this is
true. and I have strong reasons for
believing that it is, we have an in
stance Of the kind Of counsel he will
seek III luIGEudllOIldI dlld1IS.
Governor Cox said that Mr.. DE 10
bra, correspondent for the Paris
La Liberte, and who recently travel
ed with the governor before going to
accompany Senator Harding. was an
author and humorist.
Senator Harding's slip occurred, ,.
Governor Cox continued, in ore OF
his back platform speeches. The re-
straint imposed by the intellectual
guard that has been with him for
weeks, was for the moment with
drawn. The statement comes from
Marion that no more extensive speak
ing tours will be made. Obviously,
the Republican party insists upon
being protected from the plumbers OF
it's cand: date. The circumstance
creates the question as to what pro-
lection America can devise against
presidential plumbers if Senator Har-
ding should chance to be elected
Charges Harding With "Wigghng"
Governor Cox reiterated that Sem
ator Harding had taken thirteen va
RANT league positions, and the DEM
ocratic nominee predicted that the
American people would not approve
an attempt to "wiggle into the pres
idency." Governor Cox asked Wheth-
er, if elected, Senator Harding, in
carrying out his proposal for "plu-
raj government" would consult with
the Johnson-Borah, or other groups.
Tht "a storm, cyclone of protest
from Republican men and women"

EDISON, Ca, Oct. 19-The cotton
ginnery here operated by the Citizens
Mercantile company, was complete
ly destroyed by fire Saturday after
noon. The gin was in operation at
the time and two bales of cotton
only were burned. There is no sus-
picion of incendiary origin, but it is
thought the ignition came from a
spark from the engine, or from a
match in the cotton being ginned.
The plant was partly covered by in
surance. The total loss will not
exceed $4,000. The grist mill con-
nected with the ginnery was also

Home Brew Mixture

PADUCAH, Ky.-A mixture of
medicines, drugs and poisons ia
ken into his system constantly
for weeks resulted in the death
here recently of Noah McLaugh-
lin, railroad machinist.
Investigation revealed that Nc
Laughlin had a mania for collect
ing physicians prescriptions and
after having them filled would
blend and compound them into
connections of his own blend.
He also is said to have expert
mented extensively with denatured
alcohol in an effort to make it safe
for use as a beverage. McLaugh-
lin died after drinking a drug
which chemical analysis proved
harmless, and physicians believe
the harmless drug, blended with
other drugs he previously had
taken, caused his death.
