duced in the Iowa senate by Senator

vides that a county may vote on the
proposition Of it's adoption and after it
is adopted it will be optional with
property owners to use the system or
the present one in the matter of con-
veyance of land titles.
In the registration plan which this
bill contemplates the necessity of MAX
ing out an abstract will be done away
with when once the title has been fully
established. The property would be
registered and fully described in its
registration A certificate of ownership
would be issued instead Of deed.
There are now a number OF states
which have law similar to the one

Edwards Olive Tablets are
Harmless Substitute

DR.. 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 ealomel.
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 10
take calomel, but to let DR.. Edwards
Olive Tablets take its place.
Most headaches, dizziness" and that
lazy feeling come from constipation and
disordered liver. Take DR.. Edwards
Olive Tablets when you feel 'loggy" and

Des Moines,, Jan. ga circumstance
came to light yesterday which illus
trates most graphically the wonderful
service that lis being performed thru
the nstrumentality of the Perkins law
fJr the relief OF diseased and crippled
children whose parents are not able to
provide proper treatment and care.
A little girl who attends one of the
schools OF Des Moines and who belongs
TO a good family in humble clrcum-
stances. contracted, at the school
house where she attends, one of the
worst Affections that can befall any
enc, namely, gonorrheal infection Of
the eye. No one connected with the
child's family was in any way to
blame. The family doctor was sent
for. He recognized what was the mat
ter and he knew that unless the child
could have scientific treatment and
would go blind The parents were not
able to provide It, He knew the pro-
visions Of the Perkins act, and hurried
over to the headquarters Of the state
board Of education. He was In doubt
as to whether they would handle a
case like this at Iowa City, but he was
t,ld that they had an isolation hospital
and no doubt would handle 1t. A tele-
phone message from the superintend-
ent Of the hospital confirmed this opin-
ion, and the unfortunate little girl is
now in the hands of skilled doctors and
Ter sight will be saved. Put upon the
bwest plane possible, the state has
saved, in this one case. at least $4,000:
for that Is what it costa the state to
educate blind child at the school at
Vinton. Everlasting darkness would
have been her fate but for the benefit
cent provisions Of the Perkins act.

journed session OF the legislature to
which the code revision committee and
the committee to investigate state
commissions as he outlined them would
report is no, meeting with favor ap-
parently. II is doubtful IL such a pro-
posal win be Endorsed by the house.
1t is being predicted that Senator
Whitmore' bone dry bills will find
considerable opposition in the senave
when they come up for consideration
on Feb. & and that they will fail os
passage in the house. While the mem-
bers of the legislature are overwhelm-
ingly dry, there are apparently num-
Der of them who fear that cutting OF.
all opportunity for the bringing in o;
liquor for personal consumption may
defeat the constitutional amendment
when 1t is submitted to vote.
Opposition to Suffrage.
The equal suffrage amendment UNI
doubtedly will meet with considerable
opposition. Those who have always
been opposed to 1t are saying that the
people declared against It and that
should settle it. They are also saying
that the women's vote defeated
Hughes. Those who are fighting for
its passage, however declare that the
election held in June was not a fair
test, as it was confused more or less
with the issues Of the primary. AS to
the women's vote losing the election
for Hughes, they say that many states
where equal suffrage prevails went for
Hughes because of the women's votes.
The present indications are that any
legislation looking to the issuance of
road bonds will be defeated, However,
the majority seem TO favor the accept
ance of federal aid and of preserving
our present highway law so that may
be possible.
II is probable that taxing laws in
general will be changed in line with
Governor Harding's recommendations
The presidential preference primary
probably will be killed. Senator Kim
balls bills TO amend the direct primary
law seem 10 meet with favor.

the books two months later.

record
