' 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
poor digestion, they are attacking the
real cause of the silment clogged
liver and disordered bowels.
DR.. Edwards Olive Tablets arouse
the liver in a soothing, healing way.
When the liver and bowels are per-
forming 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
substitute 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

Shop Early In The Morning!

You will find it more pleasant in every way.
The street cars are not crowded after the rush of
business people get down town, and you can count
on having comfortable seat ali the way down,
which will mean that you reach the store without
being all tired out before you even start shopping
Then the store is not so crowded in the early
morning hours, the SaleSpeople are not so rushed,
which means that you can have so much more and
better service for they can give more time and
attention to your individual needs, and if you are
like me, you like TO feel that the saespeope are
interested in finding what you want-but how can
they be interested if you are one of great crowd
that is begging to be waited upon?
Then the greatest of all benefits from EARLY
MORNING SHOPPING is that you are able to get
the articles that you come after. And it is no secret
that some stocks that are offered in these Friday
Remnant Sales are sold out even before noon.
| know of one case when a lot of specially
priced undergarments were offered, and while the
store thought that it had supplied very generous
number of the garments every one of them was
gone before Il O'Clock, and the late corners were
disappointed
Another case that saw recently was woman
who decided that she wanted certain piece of dress
goods but she did not buy when she first saw it,
and when she finally came back to the counter for
it, she had to stand calmly by while clerk cut it
for another customer and left only yard length
not nearly enough for the frock that she had
planned
You know the old adage about the early bird
and nowhere would the adage apply more profit
ably than in present-day shopping.
Take hint and do your shopping early in the
morning. 1t will be patriotic act too, for you
can supply your needs and have the rest of the day
free for the war work that am sure you are doing
hope that you will agree that this is worthwhile

EASY WAY TOPART

II YOU care to spend about $3.50 in
fines and rest three months in an
Englis jail. all you have to 90 Is
20 violate some of Great Britain 5
stringent food laws.
Should you want TO be as kind
hearted as the English vicar, one Rev
T. A. Phillips, by aiding the secretary
Of training camp for disabled sol
diers to secure more than his due Al
lowance OF sugar. then part with the
first 500. The kind vicar after uue
process of law in an English court
paid Just that much for his crime.
The next thing you have 10 90 10

Preserving May BE Costly.
Ifyou don't care to lose another Slo
in fines you should remember that the
British government requires sworn
statements of the amounts OF sugar
REQUIRED by individuals for preserving
fruits. Should your demand be great
er than that required by the fruits
YOU want to preserve. then pay an
other SO. like the Rev. john HOP
Lins OF Brentford, who demanded
fhirtv-six pounds OF sugar to preserve
plums from four plum trees in his or
chard.
The remainder Of the $500 YOU can
surrender TO British courts Of justice
by committing the following crimes:
Serve milk and bread as breakfast
for your pet dogs, SD.

by the company that If this falls a
little short for this year that they
will take the chance. One hundred
and thirty five acres are now signed
and fifty acres will assure this com
pany coming into this field The pso-
pie of this community should takehold
OF this at once and assist in inter
esting their neighbors in taking this
acreage. Small acreage is preferred
