RICH GOTHAM GIRL
Webs GROOMSMAN

CHICAGO. Aug. 23.-Edith Beaver
Webb. wealthy New York society girl,
threw her social position and wealthy
friends into the discard to become the
wife Of George Miles, groom in the
Lake Forest stables of Benjamin
Behr.
Mrs. Miles was "at home" today in
. little cottage in the fringe of the
vast estates Of Lake Forest million
aires, the bungalow furnished to Mr..
Miles by his employer.
The girl, who is the daughter OF J.
Beaver Webb, New York, f1nancier
and lifelong friend of J. Pierpont
Morgan, was married to Mr.. Miles.
June II. The news has just simmer
ed through to the exclusive set
among which she used to be num-
bered.
Mrs. Miles marriage was the sec
ond time one of Mr.. Webb's daugh-
ters jumped from her high roc1al ele-
walton through marriage. A year ago
Louise Webb, the eldest daughter, be-
came the bride of Thomas Leonard,
q traffic cop in Central Park, the JOB
he is still occupying.
The love OF MIS-. Miles 1or norSeS
and an outdoor life was the beginning
of the romance, she limited. She al
ways preferred a saddle to the place
of honor at social function, her
friends said.
Mrs. Miles coyly refused to say
where she met the handsome groom
of Forest Park" but she emphatically
denied she had met him while at
tending a weekend party In Forest
Park. Her friends said she met him
in the east, where he conducted a
riding academy.
When asked about her plans for
the future, Mrs. Miles said: Don't
I look happy in this cottage?" This
leads her friends to believe that her
husband will go on grooming" as
her sisters husband went on direct
ing traffic in Central Park.

CALOMEL TODAY,
SICK TOMORROW
Dose of nasty calomeI makes
you sick and you lose
a days work

Calomel salivates! It's mercury.
Calomel acts like dynamite on a
sluggish liver. When calomeI comes
into contact with sour bile it crashes
into it, causing cramping and nau-
sea.
If you feel bilious, headachy, con-
stipated and all knocked out, just
30 to your druggist and get bottle
of Dodson's Liver Tone, which is a
harmless vegetable substitute 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 without
making you sick, you just go back
and get your money.
If you take calomel today you'll
be sick and nauseated tomorrow; be-
slaes, u may sanisafe ; you o WINE I'll !,
will wake up feeling great, full of
ambition and ready for work or play.
It's harmless. pleasant and safe
to give to children; they like it

Divorce and Alimony
Asked bv Husband

MINNEAPOLIS, Mimi. Aug. %
The question whether gaining the
vote makes a woman liable to pay
alimony was under consideration by
Judge Jelley, of the Hennepin county
district court. in connection with a
suit brought by Benjamin Liss
against Mrs. Minnie Liss, for sup
port and alimony. This is the first
time the issue has been raised, the
judge said, at least in Minnesota.
Liss and his wife accumulated con-
siderable property. He was stricken
with paralysis two years ago. He
said his wife sold their common prop
erty and refused to support him from
the proceeds. Without the income
from the money thus obtained, he
said, he must become a public
charge.

Philippine Investigation
Practically Completed

MANILA, P. l., Aug. 23.-The per-
sonal investigation of Philippine con-
ditions by the Wood-Forbes mission
practically closed today with the eX-
ception of gathering few loose ends.
The mission sailed from Jolo still
with number of islands to visit, but
the conditions in the unvisited places
probably will have no important
bearing on the final report to the
president.
All principal provinces have been
visited and the work of preparing the
report will begin when the mission
returns to Manila about September 8.
During the next ten days the mis-
sion will visit Siassi, Tawi Tawi and
British North Borneo. On the return
trip it will touch Palawan and Cullon.

Gradual decline in building costs promises an early revival in building activity in Phoenix, local builders and contractors declared yesterday In addition to considerable private con- struction enterprises which are now under way or are to be started in the near future, there is to be consider able public work.
 Present building costs are approxi- mately 30 per cent lower than during the 1919 peak, builders announced. This decline has been gradual over a period of several months. The pres ent trend is downward, it was pointed out, indicating that the pre-war level soon will be reached.
 Among the new construction to be started in the near future or actually under way at the present time is the new union depot to be jointly occu- pied by the Santa Fe. and the Ari- zona Eastern. Plans are steadily go- ing forward for this addition to the city which will rob comedians of their most 'favorite joke.
