KEEP LOOKING YOUNG
It's Easy-1f You Know D..
Edwards Olive Tablets

The secret of keeping young is to feel
young to do this you must watch your
liver and bowels = there's no need of
having a sallow complexion - dark rings
under your eyes pimples - bilious
look in your face duh eyes with no
sparkle. Your doctor will tell you ninety
per cent of all sickness comes from in
active bowels and liver.
DR.. Edwards, a well-known physician
in Ohio, perfected a vegetable COM
pound mixed with olive oil to act on
the liver and bowels, which he gave to
his patients for years.
DR., Edwards Olive Tablets, the substi-
tute for calomel, are gentle in their action
yet always effective. They bring about
that exuberance of spirit, that natural
buoyancy which should be enjoyed by
everyone by toning up the liver and clear
ing the system of impurities
You will know Dr.. Edwards Olive Tab
lets by their olive color. 10c and Csc per

wAUKESHA, Wis, May 24.-With
two Jurors and many of the spec
tators in tears. Grace Lusk brought
to a dramatic close late yesterday
the story of her life almost up until
the slaying of Mrs. Mary Newman
Roberts, for which she is now on trial.
Swaying in the witness chair at
times. as If on the verge of collapse,
often lowering her voice until it was
almost inaudible. she denied that she
had ever pursued DR.. David Roberts,
and charged that he. first appealing
for her help in the preparation of
book. finally won her sympathy by
telling of his unhappy home life
-AIter describing many meetings IN
Chicago and other places during
nearly two years, Miss Iusk told OF
arranging a conference with DR.. Rob
1917, about month before the trag-
edy. 1t was to this meeting that
she carried the same pistol with
which she later shot Mrs. Roberts.

IL he had not assured me that Mrs
Roberts did not care for him. Things
now were beyond my control. My
reputation was gone and my life
ruined. Mrs. Roberts also was hope
lessly wronged. If this had been
game on his part. and If 1 had been
SO simple as not to have understood
1T, would take the consequences.
Then he said he cared ten thou
sand times more for me. l asked him
to tell her. He said it was impossi-
BILE. I again asked him If he cared
for me. He assured me that he did.
then took the pistol. made him put
his right hand on Bible, and asked
him to swear that he would go home
and tell the truth. He said that it
was impossible at that time. l said
that I would give him until the 18th
of June, and he swore that he would
tell Mrs. Roberts that we cared for
each other. 1 told him to ask for his
freedom. and he said. Do you think
that will be necessary if l tell the
truthT Then put down the gun and
told him that he need not tell her if
he did not want to. He said that he
would tell her; that it was better to
be honest"
