tute for calomel, act gently on the bowels
and positively do the work.
People afflicted with bad breath find
quick relief through DR.. Edwards

coated tablets are taken for bad breath
by all who know them.

but firmly on the bowels and liver,
stimulating them to natural action,

the entire system. They do that which
dangerous calomel does without any
of the bad after effects.
All the benefits of nasty, sickening,
gripping cathartics are derived from DR..
Edwards Olive Tablets without gripping,
pain or any disagreeable effects.
DR.. r. M. Edwards discovered the
formula after seventeen years of prac-

bowel and liver complaint. with the
attendant bad breath.

OVERCOME BY A
BLOOD BUILDER
A Binghamton Woman Tells How Her
Health Was Restored by Cor
recting an Anemic
Condition.

| Every woman's health is peculiarly
dependent upon the condition of her
blood. How many women suffer with
headache, pain in the back, poor appetite
weak digestion, constant feeling of
weariness, palpitation of the heart, short
ness of breath, pallor and nervousness
If you have any of these symptoms, dc
not despair Of getting better, but begin
now, to-day, to build up your blood with
DR.. Williams Pink Pills. See how the
nervous energy of the body is restored as
the blood becomes pure and red and the
entire system is strengthened to meet
every demand upon it.
Miss S. j. White of No. So Court
street, Binghamton, N. Y, suffered from
anemia. She says:

in the building Of the bridge of ships
to France" More than 100 Aberdeen,
Wash, business and professional men
have come into the plant of the Gray's
Harbor Motorship corporation. By do
ing cleaning up and other odd jobs, they
have released many ship mechanics and
artisans for actual ship work. Many of
them come to the yard after leaving
their offices for the day, and turn over
all their wages to the Red Cross, con-
vert them into Liberty bonds or buy war
savings stamps.
Indirectly, their patriotism has been
an immense asset to the Emergency
Fleet corporation. Through their as
sumption of these odd jobs they have en-
abled the expert ship workers TO estab-
lish speed records
Almost every peace time vocation also
may be found among the STRONG mem
of the shipyards.

A VESSEL A DAY.
Is the Pace That Has Been Set in Pa.
cifc Coast.


San Francisco, Nov 4.-From the
| shipyards of the Pacific coast a vessel
day, newly completed to meet the de-
mands of war, sets forth as a cargo
carrier in the American emergency fleet.
! Shipbuilding activities extend from San
Pedro in California to the northernmost
limits Of the state Of Washington. Hulls
Of steel and wood, and some Of concrete,
| many of them turned out in periods
which have broken worlds speed records,
are received at these plants, and some
where along this stretch of shore line,
virtually every twenty-four hours, a
ship takes the water and the keel of an
other is laid before the wavelets from
the launching have disappeared
Because the Pacific yards from the in
auguration of the national shipbuilding
project have led the country in produc-
tion, their managers were first to pre-
diet that the industry would be the
greatest since history has been recorded.
They are In position now to speak with
authority of the fulfillment of their
prophecies. L. H. Meachem, secretary Of
the Meachem and Babcock Shipbuilding
company of Seattle said:
"There were employed in the construc.
tion Of King Solomons temple, accord
ing to the Bible, lSs,300 men. That was
the greatest construction undertaking up
to modern times. War shipbuilding is
the worlds greatest industry, because
there are more men concentrated on a
single purpose than ever before"
Probably no one could state exactly
the number of men employed in the va.
rious departments of shipbuilding on the
Pacific coast tits a constantly chang
ing, and constantly increasing quanti
ty. For instance, on July /, 1916, A.
200 men were at work in the Oregon
yards. Just one year later there were
Al 800 engaged in the task.
month ago there were 5000 men at
work in the yards Of the Todd Dry
dock and Shipbuilding company at Ia
coma. 1t is expected that within two
more months there will be approximate
" l0,500 on the pay rolls. The Skin
ner and Eddy yards at Seattle, Wash,
employed 1880 men month ago, The
rate at which men are being taken on
here is in keeping with the increase else
where, It is the same story from south
ern California to the British Columbia
frontier. Nowhere are the figures of to-
day the figures of tomorrow.
It is not only to the strong that is
accorded the privilege of taking hand
