Every druggist in town has noticed
a great falling off in the sale of Cal
omel. They all give the same reason.
Dodson's Liver Tone is taking Its
place.
"Calomel is dangerous and people
know it," Dodson's Liver Tone Is per-
sonally guaranteed by every druggist
who sells it. A large bottle doesn't
cost very much but If it fails to give
relief in every case of liver sluggish
ness and constipation, just ask for
your money back.

Two Rosebud Indians were killed In action after
rendering distinguished service one being cited
for the Croix de Guerre; six were wounded Sc
verely and twelve less seriously wounded, while
five died of disease SO many young Indians had
volunteered that no quota given the agency
in the first draft. In all, 262 responded to the
Colors.
While the young braves winning glory the
folks back home were carrying on all of the &C
tivities of other parts of the country. The Red
Cross report shows that the Indian kntters turned
out among other things, 275 sweaters, 80 muf1ers,
II helmets and 1853 pairs of sox; while the gar
ments made included 377 pajamas and 347 shirts.
"When it to lOaning their money to the
government making donations" explained Su-
perintendent Claude G. Covey "our greatest task
was in holding them down. In one Of the loan
drives q full-blOoded Sioux woman signed 5000
check. Then she asked: Just what is the govern
ment going to do with the 5000 gaveT She had
not realized it was only lOan yet willingly and
without question had handed over her money" In
addition to the investment of trust funds in Lib
erty bonds, there were many purchases made by
individual Indians Alex BOrdeau full-blOod,
heading this list with investment of $4,000.
This was the spirit which prompted the recent
purchase of the United States treasury certif-
Gates. These certificates nontransferable and
each bears the name of the purchaser. After all,

Indorse League Program 4
The only reservation urged for the
present state industries was that these
be placed in charge of non-political
commissions. The reading and adop-
ton of these resolutions furnished the
only surprise of the convention. The
resolutions started out by condemning
the present socialistic tendencies Of
the state administration and the Non
partisan League" and wound up with
indorsing the main planks Of the Nom
partisan League program.
Considerable surprise was manifest
ed by the honest opponents Of the
farmers program when these resolu-
tions were read and railroaded thru.
The leaders who were in on the game
exchanged knowing winks and patted
themselves on their backs for this
stunt. AS one delegate put II, the fact
the O'Connor rarely voted for the Lea
que measures in the legislature and
that his law firm has consistently
fought the farmer movement in the
courts is sufficient assurance that he
would not let the resolutions stand in
the way of giving the old gang what
it wants.

The packers a eve forgive the
Federal Trade Commission for reveal.
ing to the American people the truth
about their profits and their trade
methods. They are determined to kill
the commission altogether or to rem
der it impotent. 1t appears that they
are bending every effort to pledge
the Republican party to abolish it
and failing that to so limit its pow
ers as to make it harmless. Their
friend in the Republican ranks is the
same James E. Watson who was form
erly a lobbyist in Washington in be-
half of the special interests.
This worthy is 10Y United States
Senator from Indiana and is slated
as the candidate of the reactionaries
for the craftsmanship Of the rules
committee. He is credited with having
induced Republican conventions in at
least four states to go on record in
identical planks as favoring the abo-
li5ion of the commissions "as it now
is" 1t was this Senator Watson who
in October 1918 denounced members
O. the staff of the commission as $50
c: alists."
May the rank and file of the Re-
publican Party be aroused to the ac-
ivities Of the packers and of the
other monopolists who fear that their
transactions will be brought out into
the open by the Trade Commission.
The party would brand itself as a
spineless tool of Big Business if it
goes on record as favoring the aboli-
ton of q branch of the government
which has been t~ireless in its efforts
to protect the producers and the con-
sumers from the unfair practises of
Special Privilege.

STORED BY 'TANLAC

Mimi, who has been q teacher in and
about the city for eighteen years, in
a statement the other day.
II suffered with rheumatism so bad
that I have been able to get out of
the house only three times during the
past year." she continued. ct was al
most helpless, for I was confined to
my bed for weeks at a time and I was
simply in misery from morning until
night. The pains in my back felt like
a knife cutting, my joints we're stiff
and my muscles were drawn and swol-
len. My appetite left me and my
stomach was so badly upset that what
little I ate caused severe pains in my
sides and around my heart. My nerves
were in an awful condition and I lost
weight until I was so weak I could
not stand up at times.
"My next door neighbor advised me
to try Tanlac, and since it has done
so much for me I will always be
grateful to her for telling me about
it. The rheumatism began leaving me
right after I started taking Tanlac
and now it has completely disappear
ed. The pains in my back and sides
and around my heart have also left
me. My appetite was never better and
l can eat just anything I want with
out suffering any bad effects. I am
not nervous or restless and am Sleep
ing soundly every night. l have not
felt so we'll and strong in years and
it is a real pleasure for me- to recon-
ment the medicine that did it ALL"
