You know what calomel is. It's
mercury; quicksilver. Calomel is
dangerous. It crashes into sour bile
like dynamite, cramping and sicken-
ing you. Calomel attacks the bones
and should never be put into your
system.
If you feel bilious, headachy, con.

go to your druggist and get bottle
Of Dodsops Liver Tone for a few
cents 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.
Don't take ca1omel! 1t makes you

ATLANTA WOMAN
HEIR TO FORTUNE

Like the happy ending of fiction
is the story of Mrs. Hattie Parker,
of 10 Pope street, Atlanta, now a
seamstress in a doll factory, who
soon will inherit a large portion OF
one of the largest estates in America
if matter Of relationship can be
established satisfactorily.
The estate is that left by the late
Thomas Browning, who died about
six years ago after a romantic ca
reer during which he became one Of
the wealthiest OF the oil kings of
Texas. The property consists large
1y of varied holdings in the rich
Desdemona region and is Of such ex-
tent that even the law firm of
Brand & Howard, which represents
Mrs. Barker, is unable to place all
approximate valuation. The oil lands
are said to be worth anywhere from
$40,000,000 to $500 100000 six heirs
probably will share this total.
Confidence was expressed Tuesday
by Mrs. Parker that her claim, as
well as that of her father, Gorris H.
Edwards, a DeKa1b county farmer,
said to be a nephew Of the late
oil magnate, would be recognized.
"And when 1 get the money I
want to establish free milk clinics
where babies in the cities who don't
get enough milk can get all they
need to make them strong and
healthy" said Mrs. Parker.
'Of course, I would spend some
on myself; I want to get big car,
for one thing. But want the milk
clinic too"
III case Mrs. Parker and her
father, Gorris Edwards, establish
their claim to part of the millions
comprising the estate, their share
will be delivered to Mr.. Edwards.
1t is said that this share will then
be divided between Mrs. Parker, two
sisters, Mrs. Lizzie Crosby and Mrs.
Josie Parker, and one. brother, Hen
ry Edwards, all of Atlanta.

Attitude of Administration
to Be One of "WatchfuI
Waiting = Congressional
Action Not Likely
BY DAVID LAWRENCE
(Leased Wire Service to The Journal.)
(Conyripht 1000


WASHINGTON, Aug. 29.-Hope
springs eternal in the governmental
mind and just now that hope is adj
ministrat:on policy, namely that the
industrial situation will somehow
right itself yet without drastic &C.
ton, legislative or otherwise.
No definite alternative has been
decided upon. Talk of seizure of
mines and railroads is still talk.
Congress is quietly steering the safe
course of maintaining hands off
while the chief executive and his
cabinet officers endeavor to use their
influence to bring about meetings,
conferences, discussions and all
kinds Of peace overtures. AS for
legislation, until MIR. Harding de-
mands it, congress will not take the
initiative.
In a nutshell, the whole govern
mental attitude is one of waiting.
Every day brings some new reason
for waiting. Today it is the hope,
in fact the optimistic hints that the
anthracite strike will be settled
within a few days and that when
he people are assured of hard coal
one source Of apprehension will be
moved. Until that hope is absolute
ly gone, there will be nothing done
about the anthracite problem.
AS for the soft coal situation, the
government feels that enough fuel
is assured as a result Of the Cleve-
land treaty Of peace to make govern
ment interference unnecessary pro-
vided the coal can be transported.
There the railroad shipments strike
enters the picture. Stories Of sabo.
tage on the railroads are filtering in.
One tale relates how $4,000 tons of
coal was loaded on Kentucky road
by non-union miners and was ready
for shipment as soon as equipment
could be obtained and the discovery
| was made that every bit of hose

travel, this will be a factor in public
opinion which the administration
will recognizes when the time comes
but no hullabaloo is being made suf
ficient in volume to cause the adj
ministraticn to use extreme tactics
Until matters get acute, little will
be done by the government.
! In other words the situation must
grow worse before it can get better
that's the viewpoint here.
Unless the country's opinion
crystallizes into something concrete
and demands it, the executive is in
clined to let industrial nature take
its course. Ten or fifteen days must
elapse before the effects of this
policy can be measured. unless, oil

EFFORTS To ARREST
ALLIED BREAK MADE

PARIS, Aug. 29.-Strenuous eff.
forts were made by the allied repara.
tons commission today to prevent
an open break between France and
Great Britain over the German rep
arations question.
The commission met to consider
a plan Of moratorium for Germany
which would be acceptable to Pre-
mier Poincare, of France, and in.
clude guarantees that would be &C,
ceptable to him.
Representatives Of Belgium and
Italy acted as mediators and tried
to bring Great Britain and France
together and induce them to accept
a compromise plan. The delegates
of these two countries, however,
leaned toward the British view as
expressed by Sir John Bradbury that
it was essential to grant a morato-
rum and that Poincares plan of
selling mines and forests for guar
antees would not be productive of
results.
The plan offered by Germany that
German industrials, by treaties with
the allies, guarantee payment of rep
arations was dissected by the COM
mission.
The decision on the moratorium
questions will not be reached until
after. Secretary Schroeder of the
German finance ministry, and Herr
Bergman and their aides appear
before the commission. The German
party is en- route to Paris, after hav-
ing been summoned there by the
commission.
1t was believed in the more op-
timistic seni-official circles that
moratorium would be granted and
acquiesced in under protest by
France.

Germany's Imports

cession by one or another of the
d.sputants which makes a railroad
peace possible. Meanwhile it's a war
to the finish with the government an
innocent onlooker. -
Seizure of coal carrying roads is
indeed the extreme alternative but
only in the last twenty-four hours
has it become apparent how extreme
and unlikely it is to be. No prepare
tons are being made for it. The
promises Of the railroads that they
will be able to carry coal if given
adequate protection against violence
are being taken at full value. Until
the breakdown comes, the govern.
Ineat will let the war so on.
