BETTER Than CAL0MEL
Thousands Have Discovered
DR.. Edwards Olive Tablets
are a Harmless Substitute

DR., Edwards Olive Tablets-the substi-
lutte for calomel-are mild but sure laxa-
tive. and their effect on the liver is almost
instantaneous. They are the result of DR..
Edwards deterrn ination not to treat liver
and bowel complaints with calomel. His
efforts to Danish it brought out these little
Ulve-colored tablets.
These pleasant little tablets do the good
that calcnel does but have no bad after ct
fects. They don't injure the teeth like strong
liquids or calomcl. They take hold OF the
trouble and quickly correct it. Why cure
the liver at the expense of the teeth? Cal
omel sometimes plays havoc with the gums.
SO do strong liquids.
1t is best not to take calornel. but to let
DR.. Edwards Olive Tablets take its place.
Most headaches. "dulness" and that
law feeling come from constipation and a
disordered liver. Take DR.. Edwards Olive
Tablets when you fecl"loggy" and"heavy."
Note how they "clear" clouded brain and
how they "perk up" the spirits. AT 10c and

home with his widowed mother Mrs.
Clara Enlow, and his sister and
brother-in-law Mr. and Mrs. Davis, 1880
North II street, left home Wednesday

his disappearance he was respondent
because he could not find work. He
said unless he received employment
soon he would do something"
Mrs. Enlow at first thought the
hanging body in the Greensboro barn
Saturday was that of her son, but
she was assured today by Coroner

fled beyond doubt as that of an es-
capped Easthaven inmate. Her fears
were partly quoted but Mrs. Enlow
still believes her son has or may carry
out his threat and end his life. Enlow
is unmarried.

100000 plurality. Carefully
tabulated returns by county and
district organizations. We will
carry every congressional dis
trict."-Bernard korbIy, Demo-
cratic State Chairman.

The one factor that engenders hope
among the rank and file of the Pro
gressive party is the leadership of the
Hon. Albert Beveridge, candidate for
United States senator. 1t is acknOwl-
edged on all sides that Beveridge has
apparently lost little if any Of his
1912 strength. PrOgressiveS insist
that he has grown stronger through
out the state. By just how much he
will lead his ticket Is conjectural. but
political wiseacres, even among other
parties, unofficially predict that he
will run surprisingly strong.
Progressive leaders are laying
stress on the fact that they will have
for the first time representation on all
precinct boards, and their confidence
of success is also based on more thor
ough organization everywhere. They
expect to draw heavily from both the
Democratic and Republican ranks on
the so-called anti-boss argument.

In the meantime, Wilson has let the

However, Wilson has kept US out
