- London. March Either an early
general election or the resignation of
Prime Minister Lloyd George will be
the upshot of the present political
crisis, it is generally believed.
The apparently widening breach in
the conservative party together with
the consistent gain in strength of the
liberals under former Premier Asquith
and the laborites, as evidenced in the
recent bye elections. have forced
these alternatives on the premier.
Lloyd George Serves Notice
Mr.. Lloyd George is understood to
have served notice In his letter to j.
listen Chamberlain that Sir George
Younger, leader of the conservative
seeessionists. who recently attacked
the premierj in the House Of Com
mons, must go or he will step down
from office
Sir George Younger's tactics have
met with disfavor among considerable
section of the party, especially with
Mr. Chamberlain and Lord Chancellor
Birkenhaad, the latter publicly voic-
ing disapproval in a recent speech. In
this connection, some significance is
attached to a report that Younger
may resign from the house and be ell
evated to peerage.
Meanwhile the government leaders
are giving much time to the problem,
and an early meeting of the whole
conservative party is expected

The Very Next Dose of This
Treacherous Drug May
Start Trouble.

You know what cGl0mel is. It's mer-
curry; quicksilver. Cal0mel Is danger
Gus. 1t crashes into sour bile like
dynamite, cramping and sickening you.
Calomel attacks the bones and should
never be put into your system.
II you feel bilious, headachy, consti-
pated and all knocked out, just go to
your druggist and get bottle Of Dod-
sons Liver Tone for few cents which
is a harmless vegetable substitute for
dangerous calomel. Take 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 calomel! It makes you
sick the next day; it loses you days
work. Dodson's Liver Tone straightens
you right up and you feel great. No
salts necessary. Give it to the children
because it is perfectly harmless and
can not salivate.-Advertise

RAILWAY IMPROVEMENTS
SLACkEN IN YEAR 1927

Chicago, Ill-Railway improvements
during 1921 struck a new low point,
according to statistics offered by prac-
tically all carriers and compiled by the
Railway Age.
Railway mileage declined about 1900
miles during the year But AS miles
of new track was laid, which, while
an Improvement over the 1920 record,
when AIT miles were built, is eclipsed
by the fact that 1878 miles were aban
doned during the year, causing net
loss of 1903 miles This makes the
total mileage abandoned since 1871
reach 500 miles, while the total new
mileage from the same date totals 5000
miles
New equipment also struck a new
low point, with only 241 locomotives
for domestic use ordered. Prior to
1917 the annual total of new lOcomo-
tives ordered annually averaged about
2400. The number Of freight cars or
dered was 20.667, as compared to an
average for the five years prior to 1911
of 100000 cars
New equipment orders are being
placed for 1922, however at rate

He bought paddock for his tool chest

two more keys to his collection. Now
he appropriates every unattached key

II You Need a Medicine
You Should Have the Best

Have you ever stopped to reason why
It is that so many products that are e1-
tensively advertised, all at once drop out
of sight and are soon forgotten? The
reason is plain-the article did not fulfill
the promises of the manufacturer. This
applies more particularly to a medicine.
A medicinal preparation that has real
curative value almost sells itself, as like
an endless chain system the remedy ls
recommended by those who have been
benefited, to those who are in need of it.
4 prominent druggist says "Take for
example DR.. Kilmer's Swamp-Root, a
preparation l have sold for many years
and never hesitate to recommend, for IN
almost every case it shows excellent re-
suits, as many of my customers testify
No other kidney remedy has so large a
sale"
According to sworn statements and
verified testimony of thousands who have
used the preparation, the success of DIR.
Kilmer's Swamp-Root is due to the fact,
so many people claim, that it fulfills al
most every wish in overcoming kidney,

nary troubles and neutralizes the uric
