QUIT cALoMEL!
Thousands Are Turning From This
Dangerous Drug.
A Safe Vegetable Substitute is Olive
Tablets for the Liver.

DR.. r. M. Edwards, prominent
physician of Portsmouth, Ohio, has
discovered new laxative and liver
toner in a combination of vegetable
materials. mixed with olive oil.
which is in effect almost exactly like
the old and untrustworthy calomel,
except that there are none of the
bad after effects of caiomel.
DIR. Edwards has long been a foe
OF calomel, though he recognized Its
value along with Its dangers.
His distrust Of the uncertain drug
Eventually started him years ago to-
wards experiments with the view
Of discovering substitute, and he is
today In possession OF the long
sought for combination, which is in
the shape OF little ar-coated,
olive oil colored tablet
The results of fifteen years ex-
perience and practice are embodied
In these marvellous little tablets.
They are called DR.. Edwards
Olive Tablets, and their effect on
the liver has been the means of re.
lief to many of DIR. Edwards regu-
lar patients as well as 20 many thou
sands of others who have suffered
and were afraid Of calomel.
They are gentle in their action,
yet always effective. They bring
about that exuberance Of spirit, that
natural buoyancy which should be
enjoyed by everyone, by toning up
the liver and clearing the system of
harmful impurities.

House Mothers Place.

A charming institution of German
homes abroad is what is known as the
hausmutter platz-"the housewives
place. In the choicest nook of the
mothers special room-preferably UNI
der window, and not too far from
the stove-is built a small platform,
sometimes rallied, raised about two
feet from the floor Upon this plat
form spread with a comfortable rug,
stand the mothers easy chair, work
basket footstool, or whatever else her
occupation calls for; and here like a
queen on her throne the mother peace
fully sits at work while her little ones
play securely about the room. In well
regulated German households the
house mothers place is held sacred,
and an invitation to enter 1t is regard
ed by the child as a special privilege
But, aside from this, the pleasant and
convenient hausmutter platz has much
to recommend 1t to American moth
ers.-Good Housekeeping Magazine.

CHIEF OF ENGINEERS ON
NIAGARA PRESERVATION

The expert testimony OF Gen. Will
liam H. Bixby, Chief OF Engineers,
United States Army, upon the sub
ject of Niagara Falls preservation,
has been issued from the Govern
ment Printing Office. He tells Of
the result of the engineers iHyesti-
cations as to the effect of present
diversions of water upon the naviga-
ton OF Lake Erie and the Niagara
river. -....
1.-THE present effect that we get
on the Niagara river" says Gen.
Bixby, is about inches at the
head of the rapids above the Falls,
and the present effect of the total
diversions Is only about an inch and
an eighth on Lake Erie, so that, so
far as navigation is concerned,
should not think them anything
serious"
The treaty with Canada, which
has not yet gone into effect, puts a
limit of 10000 cubic feet a second
upon power diversions on the Ameri-
can side, the limit now being 49,
600 cubic feet.
$50 far as navigation and scenic
beauty are concerned, do not know
of anything in my office that shows
that the increase q. e. of 4 400 cubic
feet) would seriously affect the two;
the effect of the diversion of this
4400 cubic feet around the Falls
would be practically inappreciable,"
At present the diversions on the
Canadian side are limited by the low
which forbids the importation of
more than 100000 electrical horse
power into tho United States, there
being no market in Canada to alb
sorb all the available power On
this point Gen. Bixby says
II do not expect to see but a very
few years eapse before Canada will
use every bit of water it can take
and the United States will use every
bit of water that it can take; and r
the Canadians have any trouble in
exporting the power from Canada. /
do not think it will be more than a
few years before they will be using
it up at home"
The waterways treaty between
Canada and the United States, de-
signed to protect navigation and
scenic beauty, limits total diversions
to $1,000 cubic feet a second out Of
a total dow over the Falls Of 24O,-
900 cubic feet. The engineering
experts, upon whose Investigations
the treaty was based, determined
by tests chat this limit would pre-
serev the beauty Of Niagara Falls
permanently and yet permit indus
trial development by the use of cheap
power.

CHORUS ORGANIZED

steps for the organization of the cho-

with the four days Sunday-school in

injected into the occasion. The plan
of the institute work and the object
of the organization of the chorus was
clearly set forth by one of the mem
bers of the committee that has been
appointed from the Sunday-School
Union to draw up this plan. The en-

at once went into organization by
electing a chairman, vice chairman

and two choristers. 1t is the plan
to begin rehearsals at once. The
chorister who was elected to direct
and instruct in the training of two
hundred voices was Rev. ]. Daven
port Bushell, the pastor of the First
Baptist Church. East Nashville, who
is to be assisted by his wife, both OF
whom have been acknowledged as
among the best choir trainers in this
section of the country. The forty-odd
schools of Nashville are all directly
interested in the movement which
is supported by the pastors of the
churches Every one of the churches
in the city under this denomination
has agreed to contribute their Pre-
