It’s Mercury! Attacks the
Bones, Salivates and
Makes You Sick
There’s no reason why a person
■ should take sickening, salivating cal
omel when a few cents buys a .arge
bottle of Dodson’s Liver Tone —a per
fect substitute for calomel.
It is a pleasant, vegetable liquid
which will start your liver just as
' surely as calomel, but it doesn’t make
you sick and can not salivate.
Children and grown folks can take
Dodson’s Liver Tone, because it is
perfectly harmless.
Calomel is a dangerous drug. It
is mercury and attacks your bones.
Take a dose of nasty calomel today
and you will feel weak, sick and
nauseated tomorrow. Don’t lose a
day’s work. Take a spoonful of
Dodson’s Liver \Tone instead and you
will wake up feeling great. No more
biliousness, constipation, sluggish
ness, headache, coated tongue or sour
stomach. Your druggist says if you
don’t find Dodson’s Liver Tone acts
better than horrible calomel your
money is waiting for you.—(Advt.)

RHEUMATISM
!■ A Remarkable Home Treatment Given by
One Who Had It
3 In the Spring of 1893 I was attacked
by Muscular and Inflammatory Rheuma-
J’sm. I suffered as only those who have
it know for over three years. I tried
remedy after remedy, and doctor after
doctor, but sueh relief as I received was
only temporary. Finally, I found a
remedy that cured me completely, and
it has never returned. I have given it
to a number who were terribly afflicted
and even bedridden with rheumatism,
some of them 70 to 80 years old, and re
sults were the same as in my own case,
I want every sufferer from any form
of rheumatic trouble to try this marvel
oils healing power. Don't send a cent;
simply mail your name and address and
I will send it free to try. After you
have used it and i has proven Itself to
be that long-looked-for means of getting
rid of your rheumatism, you may send
the price of it, one dollar; but under
stand, I do not want your money unless
you are perfectly satisfied to send it.
Isn’t that fair? Why suffer any longer
when relief is thus offered you free.
Don’t delay. Write today.

SHIMMY SHAKING '
IS BANNED BY
CHIEF BEAVERS
The recent declaration of Inde
pendence, attributed to some un
trammeled Atlantlan when reproved
for dancing in a somewhat too un
trammeled fashion, runs as fol
lows:
"I shake my shoulders,
I shake my knees—
I’m a free-born American,
And 1 shake what I please!”
But this won't go in Atlanta. Not
from Tuesday morning on. Chief
Beavers hag considered the shim
my. and he says it won’t go—or
rather, he says' it must go. Here
after, if you elect to shake a shim
my, you must take the chances of
being shaken down in the record
er’s court for a fine ranging from a
dollar up. It can be classed as a
disorderly conduct charge.
Mrs. W. W. Evans and Mrs. J. C.
Davis, special police-women, known
technically as the “Beauty Squad,"
went in a’ body to Chief Beavers’ of
fice Tuesday morning and requested
authority to put a stop to the shim
my in Atlanta dance halls and the
aters.
“It’s getting just awful, chief,”
said Mrs. Evans. “Don’t you think
so?’’
“So far as I know, I never have
seen’ a single shimmy shaken." re
turned the chief. "So I have to take
expert opinion of others.”
"Well, I think it’s outrageous,”
said Mrs. Evans. “Besides, we have
an idea it encourages drinking.
There is a song which 1 have heard
on the phonograph to the effect that
‘You Cannot Make Your Shimmy
Shake on Tea.’ ”
Chief Beavers asked if Mrs. Evans
and Mrs. Davis could demonstrate
the shimmy. They could not, they
said—at least they would not try;
bnt they could describe it. Mrs.
Evans said it was like the jelly-roll
from the waist up. only more so. The
chief was not certain about the
jelly-roll.
“Well, some called it the ’Jelly
Wobble,’ ” explained Mrs. Evans.
"It’s pretty awful, too, but not so
awful as the shimmy. The shimmy
is positively immoral. It ought to
be stopped.
The chief decided that the time
had come to put a stop to the mod
ern Babylonish tendency, or at least
a check.
“I have heard it said, 'On with the
dance let joy be unrefined,’ ” he ad
mitted, ‘but I didn’t know it was
getting as bad as this.”
Chief Beavers thereupon author
ized Mrs. Evans and Mrs. Davis to
inform all theater managers and
dance hall proprietors that the
shimmy could not be shaken in At
lanta any more, and that any per
son caught shimmying would be
subject to arrest on a charge of
disorderly conduct.

Los Angeles’s getting to be a big town now, and so she’e
banned the one-piece bathing suit as incompatible with her dig

the city says are no more to be viewed on municipal beaches.

fans and tourists on their way to

To their dismay they found no
futuristically-painted Indians roam

They heard no shots echoing down
Spring street from the smoking gat
of Two-Gun BUI.
And this is to warn them that
their last and maybe most cherished
hone is gone.

about town in a round of shopping,

find them.

Romance Blighted at 18
Couple Remain Faithful
And Are Married at 75
NEW YORK.—A first love which
persisted through fifty-seven years
of separation has made Mrs. Mar
tha Jane Gabriel Blottner and Ed
ward Remsen Teller man and wife
at the age of seventy-five. The
ceremony which was planned when
the bride was an eighteen-year-old
belle of Rahway, N. J., took place at
the home of her sister, Mrs. Fred
erick Fischer, 3440 Broadway.
Both bride and bridegroom de
clared they wanted all the fuss and
fun they had missed when they were
in their teens and nothing was omit
ted from the wedding ceremony,
from the good old “Here Comes the
Bride” to the shower of rice and old
shoes which accompanied their de
arture on their honeymoon.
The romance began when (Miss
’ane Gabriel met the dashing
oung Mr. Teller at a dance in Rah
ay, back in hoopskirt days.

IVhen Bogus Detective
Nab Seaside <( Spooners”
NEW YORK. —Detective William
Cenney, of the Rockaway Beach pre
cinct, was seated on the sand under
the Boardwalk at the foot of Beach
Twentieth street, Rockaway Beach,
last Wedneesday night about 10
o’clock, and by his side was a charm
ing young woman. They had been
there only a few moments when a
man walked up to them, tapped Ken
ney on the shoulder and said:
“What’s the Idea, spooning on the
beach like this?”
Kenney scrambled to his feet and
the man turned a flashlight on him.
“I’m a detective,” said the man,
sternly, "and you’re violating the law.
You get away from here quick. I’ll
take care of the young lady.”
Detective Kenney backed away
from the man and hid behind a pillar
of the Boardwalk. The man who had
accosted him then turned to Kenney’s
companion, who by this time was
standing. ’ ...
"Don’t worry,” he said, 111 take
care of you.”
"Thanks,” said the young woman,
"I can take care of myself.”
The "detective” did not notice the
young woman was quite muscular. He
grinned and stepped toward her, and

Fish Turned Out
To Be Typewriters
PAIS.—A grocer recently bought,
at a sale of American war stock,
forty cases of “tinned salmon.” When
opened he found typewriters. Offi

formed that the mistake could not
be rectified. So he sold the machines

Los Angeles, once a gay young
blade of a town, has grown up, till
she now boasts of being the
"Metropolis of the Pacific.” Her
honors must ba borne with dignity.
Hence the ruling.
Superintendent Hyatt, of the play
ground commission, gives out the
only forthcoming official note on the
subject. Says he:
‘‘We are turning away young
ladies who would bathe in suits that
would be all right in Venice, or per
haps in Atlantic City—but, well,
here in Los Angeles we simply can
not permit them.”

Russia with her young charges.
After some time she met Morris
Blottner, a wealthy man of St.
Petersburg, and they were married
later. They came to this country.
Meantime, young Mr. Teller had
waited twenty years for a reconcil
iation with his flnancee. Finally
tiring, he married another girl.
Meets Boyhood Sweetheart
Five years after his marriage he
met Mrs. Blottner at a reception.
The girl “friend,” who had been the
means of separating them, was there
also. Remorse prompted her to con
fess that she had written the letter
because of jealousy.
The bride of yesterday wore a
gown of yellowish old Russian lace.
She was attended by her sister, Mrs.
Fisher, who is seventy-three years
old. Mr. Teller’s best man was his
brother, George A. Teller, seventy
seven years old. ./Twenty old
friends of the couple were the only
guests. The ceremony was per
formed by the Rev. William Wait
ing Davis, of the Church of the
Transfiguration.
The couple will spend their hon
ey-moon visiting the native town of
the bride, Milford, Conn. They will
make their home in Montvale, Ber
gen County, N. J., where Mr. Teller
has a large stock farm.
she smashed him in the jaw and
knocked him down. He tried to get
up, and she knocked him down again
and then Detective Kenney came from
behind the pillar and handcuffed him.
After that he was taken to the police
station and searched. The police say
he had in his pocket a loaded revolv
er. He gave his name as Arthur
Jaycox, of 510 Central avenue, Far
Rockaway.
Young Jaycox was arraigned in the
Jamaica police court yesterday,
when it developed that the “young
lady” who had knocked him down and
given him a black eye was Detective
George Raeburn, attired in some of
his sister’s clothes. Kenney and
Raeburn had gone to the beach after
the police had received numerous
complaints that couples sitting on
the sand had been interrupted by a
man who had said he was a de
tective and who always chased the
men away and then tried to make
love to the young women. Magis
trate Miller held Jaycox for further
examlnat'on today in the Far Rocka
way court on a short affidavit charg
ing him with having attacked Miss
May Goodwin, of 231 Twenty-first
street, Brooklyn, after he had fright
ened away her escort by displaying a
revolver.

Central of Georgia
Moves to Encourage
Better Pasture Lands
The agricultural department of
the Central of Georgia railroad be
lieves that a solution of the pastur
age problem will be of incalculable
benefit to Georgia stock raisers.
Therefore, the management plans to
spend SB,OOO for the promotion of
better pasture lands in the interest
of better cattle in the eighty coun
ties which it serves. The total
amount to be paid in each county
is not to exceed SIOO.
The first step will be to find a
man who has some cattle, needs a
pasture, and is willing to spend
some money to get one. "Such a
man,” it is pointed out, "can greatly
benefit his community at the same
time he is helping himself. Every
farmer who has ten or more head
of cattle should be interested In
making a better pasture. Any one
wishing to take advantage of this
offer should communicate with eith
er their county demonstration agent
or J. F. Jackson, agricultural agent.
Central of Georgia, Savannah, for
a circular which outlined the re
quirements for a test pasture and a
copy for the form of agreement un
der which the Central of Georgia
will pay its share of the cost.
"This is not a donation or a gift,
but an investment, the purpose of
which is to hasten the bringing
apount of conditions which will
mean greater prosperity agricultur
ally for the counties m which the
work is conducted and eventually
the railroad that serves those coun
ties.
"In value of live stock products
Georgia now ranks twentieth of the
forty-eight states and with the
proper co-operation of the cattle
raisers there is no reason why it
can not be brought nearer the top
of the list.

Be Heard October 27

to announcement made Monday by
Gordon M. Combs, assistant United
States attorney.
Between 12,000 and 15.000 acres

quired at Camp Benning through
purchase, the land owners and the
war department having reached sat

Wall street, New York, last Thurs
day to feel its blast and soon there
after to witness its effects, are back
in the city, telling their friends what
they recall of how it happened.
Judge Samuel H. Sibley was presid
ing in a federal court four blocks
from the sepne; Robert C. Alston
was sitting in a conference only a
block and a half from the Morgan
building; and Roby Robinson was on
his way to the Morgan office, and
not far distant, when the explosion
took place.
Mr. Alston’s description brought
out graphically the blast of air
hurled through the windows, preced
ing by the thinnest possible margin
of time the roar and crash of the ex
plosion.
“The concussion of the air was so
violent that It almost upset us as we
sat about the big table,” said Mr.
Alston. "Right after the crash of
the explosion we heard the clatter
and tinkle of broken glass; then a lit
tle interval of stunned silence, and
then the increasing sound of .panic
and suffering.”

THINK WILSON
WILL HOLD UP
MARINE LAW
WASHINGTON, Sept. 21.—(8y the
Associated Press.) —Belief was ex
pressed in administration, circles to
day that President Wilson had de
cided to delay carrying out the direc
tions of Article 34 of the new mer
chant marine act, relative to termi
nation of certain commercial trea
ties, until congress reconvenes in De
cember. White House officials, how
ever, refused to discuss the matter.
Section 34 of the act directs the
president, within ninety days of the
signing of the bill—which became a
law on June 4—to give notice to the
governments of all countries parties
to commercial treaties with the
United States that the provisions of
any such treaty which restrict this
country in imposing discrimL.Sitory
import duties and tonnage dues on
foreign vessels will be terminated.
The time for giving such notices
expired September 4, and though the
state department was prepared to
forward the necessary communica
tions to the twenty or more countries
affected the president is understood
to have halted the action.
Reconsideration of section 34 by
the congress is awaited by the presi
dent, officials say, on the ground
that the full significance of its pro
visions was not appreciated at the
time of its passage. Notice of the
intention of the United States to ter
minate such sections as restrain the
imposition of discriminatory charges
some officials declare would result
in the abrogation of about twenty
two commercial treaties, including
those with tfte most important na
tions with whom the United States
is engaged in trade.
Chicago Quiet After
Riot in Stock Yards
CHICAGO, Sept. 21.—Quiet pre
vailed this morning in the stock
yards district on the South Side,
where last night one white man
was killed by three negroes, follow
ed by disturbances which were
quelled by the police with the as
sistance of a priest in whose church
negroes took refuge. Chief of Po
lice Garrity established "dead lines”
in the district and reported that the
situation was under control today.
The disturbance which ended
when the police hurried the negroes
from the church while Father
Thomas M. Burke was talking to the
crowd, was followed by minor out
breaks in which Frank Gevin, white,
and several others, both negroes and
whites, were reported wounded and
injured.
The man killed was Thomas E.
Barrett, an employe of the Chicago
surface lines, who the police said,
had been' arrested several times on
charges of assaulting negro men.
According to the police the trou
ble started when Barett began
abusing the negroes, threatening one
of them. One negro is then said to
have drawn a razor, almost severing
Barrett’s head at one stroke.
