DON'T TRUST CALOMEL
Thousands Experience Bad
After Effects From the
Dangerous Drug.
A Safe Vegetable Substitute 10 Or.
Edwards Olive Tablets for the
Liver

DR.. +. NJ. Edwards. a prominent ply
sician of Ohio. has discovered laxa-
tive and liver toner in combination
OF vegetable, materials mixed with OIL
i've oil. which is in effect almost ex-
a"tlv like calomel. except that there
are none % the bad after effects.
DR.. Edwards has long been a foe Of
calomel. though he recognized its val
ue along with it's dangers.
His distrust of the uncertain drug
eventually started him, years ago to
wards experiments with the view OF
discovering a substitute, and he has
been for several yeaTs in possession
OF the long-sought-for combination,
which is in the shape Of a little sugar
coated. olive-coiored tablet.
The results Of II years' experience
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 relief to many
of DR.. Edwards regular patients as

have suffered and were afraid of calo-

About twenty minutes later, while
, Helen was Strengthening her top bu

ant step, came III, threw the skirt on
q chair and marched out without q
/ word. 1t was wretchedly. irOned. The
! lace was torn more than it had been
before, and in one place there was a
distinct yellow scorch. And Della was
an excellent ironer.
! For long time Helen stood by the
! bureau meditatively thrusting a hat
pin into the pin cushion. She was
! thinking very hard, or she would not
have SCARED the blue satin top of the
! cushion with SO many gaping pin
holes.
At last, with final thrust, she left
the hat pin stuck at a defiant angle in
the cushion. Then she went into the
kitchen.
Della, there is something | want to
/ say to you. I'm afraid you've been here
/ too long. You haven't seemed very
happy in your work lately Now if you
are not happy, if you are not content
! I don't want you to stay | don't want
any one to work for me who does not
work willingly and pleasantly"
! HELEN'S ULTiMATUM.
| Here Helen paused, but Della, who
had not looked up since she entered
went on ironing, with her eyes still
| glued to the board. The bricl1-red flush
was even deeper, but she said not a
word
''Your month is up next "Wednesday.
| Della, week from tomorrow. Now 7
want you to think things over. and if
before that time you have not decided
that you can work without indulging
in these sullen fits, then | think YOU
had better get another place"
81 have put up with this for almost
two years just because You are i'm so
many ways a good girl. But lately it is
getting on my nerves more than it
used to. Perhaps you need change.
Perhaps, as | have said before. YOU
have been here too long. and you
might be happier in another place
Now, that is what we must decide be-
fore the first of the month. If by that
time you have not shown any desire
to conquer this sullenness then I shall
certainly not want you to stay.
1t was one of the longest speeches
that Helen had ever made, and when
she closed the kitchen door after her
and went back into her room she sank
into low chair to think it over.
But her meditations were interrupt
ed by the telephone. 1t was Mrs. Ste
vens, who wanted her to come up for
luncheon and then to go shopping
Helen had planned to unpack some
| Summer clothes that afternoon but she
realized how hard it would be to work
| Just after this talk with Della IT would
! be much better for her to go out and
leave Della to think things over alone
Ordinarily Helen would have thor
oughly enjoyed the luncheon and the
afternoon with Mrs. Stevens, but now
her enjoyment was somewhat clowded
by her thoughts of Della

a girl cried out to be this very day:
It's my luck. Why can't there some

And now it's man! always am torn
between two utterly desirable things.

as nice as the other one? And why
can't they give me more time to know

some directions about the dinner, try
ing to speak as naturally as she could.
While Della kept her head bowed
over the lettuce, Helen knew it was
not sullenness but a desire to hide the
traces of tears.
Helen's own eyes were misty as she
went back to fold up and put away the
skirt. And she resolved tha next week
Della should have an extra afternoon
off and ticket to the matinee.

sy and untidy girls that she might
have to try before she could find any
one so trustworthy as Della. She al
most began to wish that she hadn't in
sisted on the ironing of the skirt. Per
haps, while Della had this sullen fit,
she should have left her alone.
1t was with little anxiety that Hell
en- returned home a few minutes be-
fore five. The first thing she saw was
the white skirt on her bed 1t had been
re-washed and reironed and beautiful
ly ironed. The yellow scorch was en-
tirely out, and the lace carefully men
ded.
Unquestionably this was a surren-
der But Helen's satisfaction in her
victory was tempered by her sympa-
thy for Della and her desire to make
the surrender as easy as possible. 1t
would be kinder, she decided, to make
no reference to the skirt just now, to
act as if nothing had happened, and
then to show her appreciation later
on in some other way.
With a rare delicacy and under
standing Helen did not even go into
the kitchen until it was necessary to
give some instructions for dinner.
When she entered Della was washing
a head of lettuce.
There amt enough tomatoes for the
salad, ma 'am-will l hard-boil some
eggs?' There was no tinge of sullen-
ness in her voice, but there was sus-
picious huskiness which comes after
tears.
Why, yes. Della, and you might
make an egg dressing-you make that
very nicely" And she went on to give

lighted with the recognition of women

of the federal industrial commission is
one of many evidences that the govern
