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 tonics, 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 soothing, healing way. When
the liver and bowels are performing their
natural functions, away goes indigestion
and stomach troubles.
If you have 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.

has submitted his idea to the inven-

Another patriot charges nothing for
the suggestion that a fleet of balloons,
carrying powerful magnets attacked

armies. You don't see? why, the
magnets will pull the guns out Of the

One patron of the British mails
wishes the ministry of munitions to
cover the moon with a big balloon, not

the moon is friendly to the Huns. If
anybody wants to use the moon, he'll

SUGAR HOARDER
GETS BIG FINE
Said to Be Sample Of What Food
Administration intends to Serve
Those Who Do Not Return
Excess at Once.

Tomorrow is the last day for Iowa
people who bought too much sugar
to avoid trouble and cost, as Monday
Is the day that the special agents of
the food administration get busy and
put up the bars against offenders get
ting under cover.
Even those caught before the end
Of this week are being attended to-.
The administration put the screws on
Alex Baumgartner, a farmer near
Elgin, who had bought five pounds of
sugar at each of six places. When
the operation was over, the hoarder
had contributed 5000 and returned
his excess stock. He belongs in a
sect which does not believe in war,
and said he was collecting sugar SO
that he would have plenty, whatever
happened to other people.
Including Saturday, those who
bought at any time more sugar than
the rules allow, may return it to the
grocer, and they will be forgiven.
The food administration say the
baumgartner case is only a sample of
what will be done with all cases that
,he expert checkers of the grocer's
BOOKS find of sugar excess purchases.
