BETTER Than CALOMEL
Thousands Have Discovered DR..
Edwards Olive Tablets are
q Harmless Substitute

DIR. Edwards Olive Tablets-the sub
stitute for calomel-are a mild but sure
laxative, and their effect on the liver is
almost instantaneous. They are the re-
suit 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 strong liquids or caiomel.
They take hold of the trouble and
quickly correct it. Why cure the liver
at the expense of the teetha Calomel
sometimes plays havoc with the gums.
So do strong liquids. 1t is best not to
take calomel, but to let DR.. Edwards
Olive Tablets take its place.
Most headaches, "dullness" and that
lazy feelingcome from constipation and
disordered liver. Take DIR. Edwards

Women as Fortune Builders.

I observe, and you will notice, that
Notwithstanding the great incursion Of
women Of late years, into one or an
other department Of business, they are
not Of much account as fortune build
ers. Some Of them earn or make a
good deal Of money, but they seldom
get rich by their own exertions, and
nearly all the rich women have In
herited their fortunes from men.
Moreover. the women who are most
successful as moneymakers are not, as
a rule, the most successful as women.
The women seem to be a consecrated
sex, too valuable to be employed In
mere money getting. Vast numbers Of
them earn a llving-sometimes a good
One-and have to but few Of them get
rich. 1t is common for a young man
to start out deliberately to accumulate
a fortune. 1t is very uncommon for a
young woman to do so. She is much
more likely to accumulate a young
man.-E. s. Martin In Atlantic.

Tin past times, the little finger was
placed along the seam of the trousers

artificial rigidity which does not be-
long to the modern American soldier.)
The head must be erect and squarely
to the front, chin drawn In so that the
axis Of the head is vertical, With the
eyes also straight to the front.
This is the fundamental position OF
the soldier. 1t Is the position of at
tentlon, the basic command to which
every soldier responds. 1t is from the
position OF attention that all move
ments of the soldier proceed. 1t fol-
lows that until soldier has mastered
the art, or science, of standing at at
tention easily and naturally, he cannot
properly execute the movements of the
drill. 1t is therefore highly important
that the young soldier school himself
to stand properly, or at attention, un-
til such time as that pose becomes
unconsciously as much a part Of his
being as his arms or legs.
A man who can instantly assume the
position Of attention and hold 1t until
otherwise ordered has taken a very i'm
portant step toward becoming good
soldier. He has learned big lesson
In physical, nervous and mental
discipline.

Where His Pay Goes.

Both my wife and myself have fol-

the conclusion that they have not sue

BACK TO ORIGIN or SLANG
Words That Are Considered stsid and
Dlpnlhed Have a Meaning Known
Only to a Few Users.

Original slang is often poetic. Per-
haps the best way to prove this to the
professors will be to remind them that
some Of their own worthiest and most
classic and respectable words are
themselves, II we go back to their
origin, just the same slangy vagabonds
as these. Examine for instance, the
word inveigh, Max Eastman writes In
the New Republic. There Is q staid
and dignifed term. fit to be Incorporate
ed In a presidents inaugural: II will
not at this time inveigh against the
custom prevalent among my contem-
poraries." You can imagine how II
would sound. And yet, POLITICALLY, what
does that word mean? In means into"
Vehi means to sail. II will not at this
time sail into my contemporaries !"
Here is another Latin word-insult.
In It's origin 1t means to jump on--ex-
actly what is said everywhere by the
schoolchlldren of America when the
appropriate situation arises.
Diatribe is a pretentious term. It
implies something more thorough than
an insult, more lasting denunciation.
You not only Jump on" somebody, but
you ''rub it in We used to say of a
crazy person that he was "off his troll
ley" And the word dellrious meant
substantially the same thing in an
earlier stage of civilization. 1t came
from the Latin words de and Ira,
which mean off or ont Of your fur.
row. The word precoclous means pre-
cooked, or, as we say, half baked.
Caprlcious means like goat, and the
slang correlatives here are innumer-
able.
Imagine some worthy, refined and
graduated soul being offended by a
young upstart and responding some
what as follows: ut seems to me you
are a trifle capricious. would hard
ly expect any one to inveigh against
me in this delirious manner, deliver
ing such a diatribe. Is it essential to
your precocity to insult your elders?
And then suppose we translated this
somewhat according to the etymologic
al dictionary: "You goat You must
be off your trolley to sail into me like
that and then rub it ini Just because
you're half-baked you needn't think
you can jump on your elders!"

THE FUNDAMENTAL POSITION OF
THE SOLDIER.

The young soldier, before he can
handle a gun, must learn how to han
die himself. He must learn that there
are right ways and wrong ways Of
carrying his arms and legs. just as
there are with a rifle. He must learn
how to stand, how to walk.
: The boy on the street usually stands
on his heels, with his shoulders
slouched over, his stomach thrust for
ward, and his spine curving in and out
like an hour-glass. Literally, he has
no backbone" Backbone is the first
essential Of the soldier.
