NEW 1O-CENT BREAD LOAF
WEIGHS fourteen OUNCES
May Be Decreased In Size II the
Cost Of Production Goes
Higher.

The new ten-cent loaf Of bread ap-
peared this morning, in accordance
with the announcement made last week
by Charles L Corby Of the Corby Baking
Company. That company is the only one
putting out the new size, new price loaf
so far. though other large baking con-
Germs have announced that they will in
crease the price and the size Of their
loaves shortly.
The new ten-cent loaf weighs four
teen ounces. as compared with the
eleven-ounce loaf formerly sold for 9
cents, thus giving three ounces moro Of
bread for the additional cents.
The loaves are made to weigh sixteen
ounces in the dough, losing about two
ounces in baking.
According to announcement of the
Corby company, the new loaves prob
ably will be reduced in size If cost Of
raw materials. etc, continues to mount.
A reduction in size. however, is not
contemplated for the near future. and
should no material increase occur in
the cost of everything entering into
the manufacture and distribution of
bread before the new wheat crop is
company, according to Mr.. Corby's
statement, will continue to sell a loaf
weighing approximately fourteen ounces
for the present price of 10 cents.
The illustration herewith shows one
of the new fourteen-ounce ten-cent
loaves, as compared with an eleven
ounce loaf selling for cents.

Better Than Calomel
Thousands Have Discovered DR..
Edwards Olive Tablets Are a
Harmless Substitute.

DIR. Edwards Olive Tablets the
substitute for calomei-are mild but
sure laxative, and their effect on the
liver is almost instantaneous. they
are the result of DIR. Edwards deter
mination not to treat liver and bowel
complaints with calomeL His efforts
to Danish it brought out these little
oIive-coIored 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 calo-
mel. 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. 1t
is best not to take calomei. but to let
DR.. Edwards Olive Tablets take its
place.
Most headaches, "cullness" and that
lazy feeling come from constipation

and chute, which will make the track
mile in length. The racing feature,
which will be devoid of professional

pose of developing stamina in horses
and promoting the breeding Of army
mounts. Work on the new plant will
