STOMACH UPSET?
Get at the Real Cause-Take DR..
Edwards Olive Tablets

That's what thousands of stomach
sufferers are doing now. Instead of
taking tones, or trying to patch up a
poor digestion, they are attacking the
real cause of the ailment - clogged liver
and disordered bowels.
DR.. Edwards Olive Tablets arouse the
liver in a soothing, healing way. When
the liver and bowels are performing their
natural functions, away goes indigestion
and stomach troubles.
If you have a bad taste in your
mouth, tongue coated, appetite poor,
lazy, don't-care feeling, no ambition or
energy, troubled with undigested foods,
you should take Olive Tablets, the sub
stitute for calomel.
DR.. Edwards Olive Tablets are a
purely vegetable compound mixed with
olive oil. You will know them by their
olive color. They do the work without
gripping, cramps or pain.
Take one or two at bedtime for quick
relief, so you can eat what you like.

Civil war-statistics.
WASHINGTON, Oct. 8.-The draft has
one advantage over the volunteer system
that has received only passing recognition.
This is the actual saving of money in
modifying hundreds of thousands Of ci-
villains Tor military service. The volun-
teer system was more expensive than the
draft In the days of the civil war: the
same is true this year. The proof of the
accuracy OF this statement can be found
in the dust-coyered archives of the war
department, and in the most recent tiuau-
cial report issued by the government.
During the first two years of the civil
war, when the volunteer system was in
force, the states expended approximately
SD Tor each man who offered his SER
vices Then the draft was substituted,
resulting in a per capita cost of little
less than $40 "a man The volunteer sys-
tenn is not as costly today as 1t was in
the dark days of the sixties, but neither
is the draft. The official figures show
that volunteering for the regular army in
the first nine months of the last fiscal
ear cost the government more than SIS
man. whereas the cost of drafting the
first million men for the national army

UNIVERSAL
MILITARISM
(By Associated PRESS, !


Washington, Feb. %. - The army
general staff universal military serv-
ice and training bill probably will be
sent to congress during the present
session, Secretary Baker said, but he
from the department, If any would
accompany 1t. The measure is being
put in final shape by the war college
staff after conference between the
secretary and Major General Scott.
The staff plan, based on a years
intensive instruction for boys begin
ming in the nineteenth year would
bring about half a million men Of that
age to the colors each, year. The sen.
ate military bill, already reported to
the senate would provide for six
months training for the same number
OF men.
Eleven months OF training would be
given the first year, under the staff
plan, followed by two weeks Of review
work during each of the two next
years. Reservists would not be sub
ject to call thereafter except in was
emergency and then only for defensive
operations.
The bill makes no provision for the
navy. This is regarded. as detail,
however, as at most not more than
100000 to 100000 men would be need
ed for sea service. An elective provi-
sion in the bill would insure the navy,
1t is thought of $4,000 recruits a year,
which, would be all it required, as
naval training must be for two or
three years to produce efficient crews.
