QUIT CALOMEL!
Thousands Are Turning from This
Dangerous Drug.
A Safe Vegetable Substitute Is Olive
Tablets for the Liver.

Dr. NJ f. Edwards, a prominent
physician of Ohio has discovered a
new laxative and liver toner in a
combination Of vegetable materials,
mixed with olive oil, which is in ef-
feet almost exactly like the old and
untrustworthy calomel, except that
there are none Of the bad after effects
of calOmel.
DR. 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 a substitute, and he Is to-
day in possession Of the long-sought-
for combination, which Is in the shape
Of little sugar-coated, olive-oil col
ored tablet
The results OF II years experience
and practice are embodied In these
marvellous little tablets.
They are called DR.. Edwards Olive
Tablets They oil the bowels, and
their effect on the liver has been the
means Of relief to many OF DR. Ed
wards regular patients as well as To
thousands Of others who have suffer
ed and were afraid Of calomel.
They are gentle in their action, yet
always effective. They bring about
that exuberance OF spirit, that natural
huoyancy which should be enjoyed by
everyone, by toning up the liver and
clearing the system of harmful Inn

DEPUTY CAUGHT

This suit, it will be recalled, was

Governor Brewer, charging him with be

Spring Clipping Of Horses.

The modern practice among the best
posted and most progressive horse owners
and farmers is to clip all horses in the
spring. It is done on the theory that in
their natural state horses were not obliged
to work, 80 could shed. the winter coat in
comfort over d period Of several weeks.
Since we oblige them to do hard work on
warm spring days, the winter coat should
be removed for the same reason that we
lay off our heavy winter garments. Clipped
horses dry off rapidly, hence they do not
take cold as easily nor are they as prone
to be affected with other ailments as un-
clipped animals whose longer hair holds
the perspiration for hours. Because clipped
horses dry off rapidly they rest better, get
more good from their food and come out
in the morning refreshed and fit for work.
Since the advent of the ball bearing en-
closed gear clipping machine. the work of
taking of the winter coat is easy. With
the machine a horse can be clipped all over
in half an hour. whereas with the old two
hand clipper it required several hours ia
do it.
Dairymen also now clip the cows all
over two or three times a year. The TANKS
and udders are clipped every three or four
weeks, so it is easy to clean the parts be-
fore milking. This means less opportunity
for dirt and other impurities to get into
the milk.

WILL TRY BANK WRECKERS.
Notable Cases to Come Up for Hearing
at Decatur.

Jackson.-At the current term of the
Newton county circuit court which con-
vened al Decatur the indictments
against the officers and directors of the
defunct Merchants & Farmers Bank OF
Newton will be called for hearing. This
was one of the most notable OF the too
numerous bank failures in Mississippi
within the past year, and much inter
est centers in the outcome of the case,
owing to the unusual features of the
failure, the prominence of the officers
under indictment, and the bitter feeling
that has prevailed among creditors and
stockholders of the defunct institution.
w. Baker Sively, of this city, vice
president and a member of the board
OF directors OF the bank, who was among
the officials indicted, left for Decatur,
accompanied by his attorney, Hon. R.
n. Miller. His son, Hamilton +. Siyely,
was cashier of the bank, and, according
to allegations made by directors, largely
responsible for its failure. The indict-
ments were based chiefly on the report
filed by the expert accountant, Lewis Z.
Crook, of Meridian, who audited the
books for the receiver, and this report
will figure largely in the trials of the
officers.

Bowels Get Weak
AS Age Advances
The First Necessity is to
Keep the Bowels Gently
Open With a Mild
Laxative Tonic

Healthy old age Is SO absolutely de-
pendent upon the condition of the
bowels that great care should be taken
to see that they act regularly. The fact
IL that As 6 advances the stomach
muscles become weak and inactive
and the liver does not store up the
juices that are necessary to prompt
digestion.
Some help can be obtained by eat
ing easily digested foods and by
irksome to most elderly people. One
thing ia certain, that a state of con-
stipation should always be avoided as
1t is dangerous to life and health. The
best plan is to take q mild laxative
as often as is deemed necessary. But
with equal certainty 1t is suggested
that cathartics. purgatives. physics,
salts and pills be avoided, as they do

as to be a shock to a delicate system.
