Persistent inflation talk, with a consequent shifting of funds to Europe, has sent the dollar to 99.06 cents of par in relation to the French franc. At this level it was profitable for American banks to buy gold from the treasury with depreciated dollars and ship it to France and Holland for sale. The decline in the dollar sent three gold shipments aggregating 15,240,000 to France and one amounting to $365,000 to Holland.

More shipments are expected should the dollar continue depressed. Although officials doubted an extended flow of gold out of the United States the outward movement aroused considerable I discussion in financial circles. Fears of possible currency inflation legislation by congress were believed instrumental in causing a movement of credit to Europe.

Reduced dosage is the secret of anu real relief from constipation. Ask a doctor about this. Ask your druggist how very popular liquid laxatives have become. They give the right kind of help, and right amount of help. The liquid laxative generally used is Dr.
