Thousands Have DiscoveredDr
Edwards Olive Tablets are
a Harmless Substitute

DR.. Edwards Olive Tabiets-the substi-
tute for ealomel-are mild but sure laX0-
tive, and their effect on the liver IS almost
instantaneous. They are the result OF Dr.,
Edwards determination not to treat liver
and bowel complaints with calomel. His
efforts to Danish it brought out these little
olive-colored tablets.
These pleasant little tablets do the good
that calomel does, but have no bad after
effects They don't injure the teeth like

of the trouble and quickly correct it, Why
cure the liver at the expense OF the teeth?

Death Of w. III. King, Sr.

The remains of w. M. King, Sr.,
aged 62 years, who died Friday morn
ing after a weeks illness at the home
of Mrs. Lee White, 2918 Avenue E,
Ensley, were taken to Macon, Miss,
Saturday morning for interment in the
family burial ground. MIR. King was
born in Linden, Ala, but his parents
moved to Mississippi when he was nine
years old He married Miss Katie
Faser of Macon, Miss. They came to
Birmingham about Is years ago and
during that time MIR. King has held an
important position with the Tennessee
Coal, Iron and Railroad Company. He
is survived by his widow, two children,
William M. King, Jr, and Mrs. T. A.
Fletcher of Wauchula, Fla, and two
grandchildren. MIR. King was mem
Der of the Methodist church and several
fraternal organizations. His death is
mouned by wide circle of friends. 49,
Birmingham Age-Herald.
To the people of Macon Mr.. King
was not stranger. For number of
years he lived there and was intimately
associated with all the business inter
ests. He married Miss Katherine Faser
there December 81, 1876. and to them
were born three children, one dying at
the tender age of four years.
When his death is spoken of as an
untimely one, several explanations can
be given. First, Mr.. King was just a
little beyond middle life; then his ILL
ness was of sAch short duration for
one so active, and, foo. that his fami-
ly, relatives and friends were SO un-
prepared to give 9im up.
After his, death Friday morning,
Nov. "a, his. body was carried to an
undertaking parlor, where hundreds of
his friends viewed his remains. The
beautiful floral offerings sent by friends
from the steel plant and from all over
the city of Birmingham, were indica-
tive of great love and respect.
To the loved ones who remain, there
is consolation in knowing that they
will see him agsin.,

The State Department at Wash.
ington has recently refused a pass
port to a young American who
had returned TO the United States
after iightiny in the ranks of the
Allies. lis ground for refusal is
that the young man had forfeited
his American citizenship when he
enlisted under an alien flag. There
is ample precedent for the ruling,
but it indicates an annoying sit.
uation for hundreds of young
Americans when the war is over.
If they wish to renew their Amer.
ican citizenship, they will have
to be naturalized.

Report TO Conference

To the Officials, Members and Friends
of the Methodist Conference:
Kindly permit me to thank you for
your most effective service fine CO.
operation and splendid loyalty during
the conference year just closed. 1t is
with more than ordinary pleasure that
we return to you for the year 1917.
BY means of this loyalty and cooper
alton, God helping us, a splendid years
work has been done. We are filled
with pride for the past, of course, as
any people should be proud of worthy
past, but still these achievements only
teach us how to meet the future and
succeed in all things God would have
US do.
Our aim should be to grow in Gods
favor. Our work should be to do Gods
will. Our success should be manifest
by the fruits of Gods spirit, which
worketh in us day by day teaching us
to be courteous and kind, trusting and
hopeful, long suffering and diligent'
Facing the future, we are humbled
before the great responsibility. To
care for the young, to sustain the
weak, to save the sinner is our heaven
imposed dnty. He who shirks is a
traitor, both to God and man, so, by
Gods grace, we will be faithful and
fight Gods battles to successful'
issue.
The report of the years work is your
report and one of which we all should
feel justly proud; therefore, render
it to you as it went to the conference
at Winona

LOST NORWEGIAN SHIPS
WORTH 84,O 900, 900 CROWNS
III Vessels Sunk and 140 Sailors
Have Lost Lives Since the
War Started.

CHRISTIANIA. October 12.-Norway'
losses at sea from the opening of the
war up to Tuesday, as the result of
mines and submarines, are III vessels.
of a total of 235,000 tons. The vessels
were valued at S4.OO0,oOo crowns; 140
sailors have lost their lives.
Germany has notified Norway that
she regrets the torpedoing of the
steamer Sjolyst, which was sunk on
April while in ballast. Germany de-
clares her readiness to pay full in
demnity. This has resulted from the
protest registered by the Norwegian
government.
The Norway foreign office has issued
a statement announcing that Norway
has entered into and Will continue
negotiations with Germany in all cases
where submarines have violated the
duty to bring all persons on board
vessel into safety before sinking it.
The Norwegian Shipowners' Associa-
tion has demanded that the government
take measures to protect Norwegian
sailors. The association asserts that the
German statement that the vessels tor
pedoed in the arctic carried careoes for
the Russian and British governments is
untrue.
