QUICK Relief FROM
CONSTIPATION
Get DR.. Edwards Olive Tablets

That is the joyful cry OF thousands
since DR.. Edwards produced Olive Tab
lets, the substitute Tor calomel.
DR.. Edwards, practiciug physician
for II years and calomers old-time en-
envy, discovered the formula for Olive
Tablets while treating patients for
.chronic constipation and torpid livers.
Dr. Edwards Olive Tablets do not
contain oalomel, but a healing, sooth-
ing vegetable laxative.
No gripping is the keynote Of these
little sugar-coated, olive-colored tablets.
They cause the bowels and liver to act
normally. They never force them to
unnatural action.
If you have dark brown mouth"
now and then-a bad breath dull.
tired feeling - ici, headache = torpid
liver and are constipated, you'll find
quick, sure and only pleasant results
from one or two little Dr.. Edwards
Olive Tablets at bedtime.
Thousands take one or two every
night just to keep right. Try them.

FURNITURE
Do you live on your furniture,

Do you live on your furniture,
or for it?
Every once in a while our
wife gets the idea that furniture
is something sacred. And she
gets to lavishing more loving
care on rugs and racks and
tables and chairs than she does
on US.
Maybe that's natural. The
furniture's home more than we
are. But we resent the aliena-
ton OF our wife's affections by
gate-leg tables and things just
the same.
We are in favor of chairs to
sit in. Pillows to lie on. Carpets
that can take a little granulated
tobacco without getting sick at
the sotmach; and lace curtains
that can be crumpled out Of the
way when the occasion de-
mands.
We want a house with moth
ing in it that can't be abused
with impunity.

PUTTING 1T OVER

A certain country town, less than
a thousand miles from Lordsburg
once possessed an influential citizen
who opposed every worthy movement
not fathered by himself. He was a
chronic kicker and the despair of the
town. for in one way or another he
invariably carried his point.
One dav a small band of live
wires" devised a new wav TO get an
improvement through. They secret
~ arranged for il to be introduced
at the meeting of the village board
with the public invited to express
their views. The Give wires" were
present, and so was the kicker. But
contrary TO his expectations the
"wires" vOciferously' opposed the
measure. This was too much for the
kicker, and he Immediately launched
into a strenuous advocacy Of the
measure which he had previously in
tended to kill" It carried with a
whoop.
We might take a lesson and "put
one over" in this town.

THE PRICE OF PAPER.

Thousands Of small newspapers
throughout this entire nation are
facing an alarming situation in re-
gard 10 print paper. Last year the
cost Of the paDer on which we print
our regular issues was about half
what il is at this time. Hundreds Of
newspapers through the country
have raised their prices to escape an
initiation, and we call 10 the atten-
ton Of our readers the obvious i'm
possibility Of continuing this paper
at the old rate If prices advance much
farther.
We have always given Our sub
scribers the best paper that we could
publish. While we are in the bust
ness for a living we stick 10 II be-
cause we think ii is an opportunity
at the same time 10 serve the neople
among whom we live through the
printing and publishing Of q progress
size newspaper, which stands for the
hest as II appears TO Us. We think
that every community needs as many
good, honest and courageous papers
as II can afford TO supnort. We in
tend 10 give our readers a newsy
paper. cleanly edited and stalwari
for what we judge is the right. We
have no doubt but that they vii
continue TO stick 10 US, as they have
done In the past.

PUT IT DOWN

When you see something adver-
tised in The Liberal and cannot take
immediate advantage Of the offer, it
is a good plan 10 make a note Of il
in a little book, pad or card, as the
case may be.
II sometimes happens that many
desirable offers are forgotten or lost
merely because a Liberal reader
didn't have time to attend to the pur-
chase right away.
Every housewife and every man
should have a note book where inn
portant notes can be stored away.
Every housewife and every mar

pet" statements that would be a ben.
gift.

more general use in Lordsburg anC
vicinity would be a decided benefit
