WOULD REFUND ALL
 OF ALLIES DEBTS
BILL IN SENATE WOULD GIVE SECRETARY OF TREASURY
 UNLIMITED AUTHORITY.

Washington n.-Unrestricted authori. ty for the secretary of the treasury in refunding the approximately $10,000,. GOO, ,000 owed by the allied nations to this country has been asked by President Harding in the first admin istration bill sent to Congress.
 The bill, drafted at the Treasury Department, was forwarded by the president to chairmen of Senate and ommednations for enactment It was introduced immediately in the Senate by Senator Penrose and committed hearings were ordered for the neaI future.
 Complete power for settling with the allied nations would be vested in Secretary Mellon under the bill With the presidents approval. he would be authorized to accept the securities of debtor or other nations in exchange for their notes. The bill also would confer unlimited authority to defer payment of interest or prin, cipal, and to settle outstanding claims
 
 Announcement of the administra. tion refunding plan was made at the White House, and letter from Sec retary Mellon to the president, out. lingin the bill, presented needs for the blanket powers requested. Cit. ing that the treasury now was with out authority to convert. refund or defer payment of the allied debts and interest, Secretary Mellon said that divers conditions required general grant of powers to the Treasury In this connection he said that it might be advisable, in the case of nations owing debts to other countries, in ad. dition to the United States. ito con. sider comprehensively the entire debt of such countries. so as to work out a refunding plan reasonably within the ability of such country to carry out"
 No plans for disposition of the al. lied securities was given by Secretary Mellon, Senator Penrose said he pre-. sumed they would be offered to American bankers and the public at times and in quantities without dis. turbance of finance. The administra- tion bill was received by most Re. publican leaders with approval. II was pronounced by Senator Penrose to be the most most important" bill of the present Congress. Some Demo crats, however, declared they would oppose any rant of unlimited powers over the allied debts to the secretary of the treasury and intimations of a similar position were given by some Republicans.

MT. Dodson, the "Liver Tone" Man, Tells the Treaehery
 of Calomel.

Calomel loses you day! You know what calomel is. It's mercury; quick silver. Calomel is dangerous. It crashes into sour bile like dynamite, cramping and sickening you. Calomel attacks the bones and should never be put into your system.
 When you feel bilious, sluggish, con- stipated and all knocked out and be- lieve you need dose of dangerous cal omel just remember that your druggist sells for a few cents a large bottle of Dodson's Liver Tone, which is entirely vegetable and pleasant to take and is perfect substitute for calomel. It is guaranteed to start your liver without stirring you up inside, and can not salivate.
 Don't take calomel! It can not be trusted any more than leopard or wildcat. Take Dodsons Liver Tone which stfaightens you right up and makes you feel fine. Give it to the children because it is perfectly harm less and doesn't gripe.
