BETTER Than CAL0MEL
Thousands Have DiscoveredDr
Edwards Olive Tablets are
a Harmless Substitute

DR.. Edwards Olive Tablets-the substi-
tute for calomel-are a mild but sure laxa-
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 calonel. His
efforts to Danish 1t brought out these little
oliye-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
strong liquids or calomel They take hold
of the trouble and quickly correct it. Why
cure the liver at the expense OF the teeth?
Calomel sometimes plays havoc with the
gums. So do strong liquids.
It is best not to take calomel, but to let

WILSON TO SEND NOTE
OF PROTEST TO LONDON

Administration Takes Firm Stand In
Defense of Firms Against Blacklist.
Washington.-Presi Wilson and
state department officials have practi-
cally completed preparation Of a pro.
test against the promulgation Of a
blacklist Of American firms under the
British trading with the enemy act. 1t
was said that the communication
would be sent to London in the near
future, probably within the next few
days. 1t will discuss the principles
involved and will not interfere with
the continuance of informal discus
sions between representatives of the
two governments over the cases Of in.
dividual firms included in the black
list.
When the principles involved are
taken UP with the British government
1t Is expected that issue also will be
taken with France Russia and Italy.
The Allies view 70 the legal aspects
of the blacklist order which probably
will be the basis of the statement
to be issued soon in London and be
incorporated in the reply to the Amer
lean protest, is understood to be as
follows:
The Allies view Of the legal aspects
national law against their enemies and
upon all their subjects without dis.
tinction. The continental rule, ap-
piled by Germany, France, Italy and
| Russia interprets the word enemy
as a person Of enemys origin or inter.
est English and American prece.
dents put the emphasis on domicle
| Consequently British subjects have
considered they could trade with any
enemy firm domiciled in neutral
country"
