American Legion Notes.

Charging that bodies of returned
soldier dead at the army piers at HO-
boken are handled with less respect
than are boxes of merchandise, the
American Legion department Of New
Jersey has urged the governor and
adjutant general of the state to place
officers permanently on duty at the
base to demand proper treatment OF
the bodies Removal of the dead
has become fatigue duty for soldiers,
in practice if not by order, investiga-
ton has disclosed. Unkempt men
jostle the flag covered caskets into
disreputabae looking trucks and driv-
ers bounce their precious loads over
rough streets at high rate Of speed,
it is charged, with no military guards
accompanying the remains.
Evidence of the ridiculous and ma
licious arguments which radicals and
disloyalists in New York are present
ing to job1ess ex-service men to
ALLEVIATE them from the government

DDDSON KILLING
USE OF CALONEL
Says Drug Is Mercury and Acts
Like Dynamite on Your

Dodson is making a hard fight
against calomel in the South. Every
druggist has noticed great falling off
in the sale of caIomel. They all give
the same reason, DOdson'S Liver Tone
is taking its place.
"CalOmel is dangerous and people
know it, while Dodson's Liver Tone is
perfectly safe and gives better results"
said prominent local druggist. Dod-
sons Liver Tone is personally guaran-
teed by every druggist. A large bottle
costs but a few cents, and If it fails to
give easy relief in every case of liver
sluggishnesS and constipation, you
have only to ask for your money back.
Dodson's Liver Tone is a pleasant
tasting, purely vegetable remedy,
harmless to both children and. adults.
Take a spoonful at night and wake up
feeling fine; no biliousness, sick head
ache, acid stomach or constipated
bowels. It doesn't grippe or cause incon-
venience all the next day like violent
caiomel. Take a desc Of calomel to-
day and tomorrow you will feel weak,
sick and nauseated. Don't lose a days
work. Take Dodson's Liver Tone in
stead and feel, fine, full Of vigor and

authority on economics, writing in
the Lokal Anzeiger, but cannot per-
manently disrupt the productive
power and will to work in other
countries, and may result in the
eventual economic downfall of the
United States in the same manner
as Spain fell. from the richest to

Asserting that gold can no longer
be identified as riches, Prof. Levy
continues:
Gold has proved an unmitigated
blessing to us. for the disorganiza-
ton of credit which followed the
concentration of gold in America and
resulted in the depreciation of the
mark and kroner has stirred Ger
man production and acted as ban
materials. and is giving Germany
an opportunity to capture the world
markets. which the United States
has held. particularly in the South
American field.
