terrific explosion which shook the

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 sallow complexion - dark rings
under your eyes - pimples - a bilious
look in your face = dull 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.

tute for calomel, are gentle in their action
yet always effective. They bring about

confidence in the ultimate outcome of

not be interpreted as necessarily
meaning an early assumption of the
offensive by the allies. There is still
room for much defensive enticement

1t is becoming increasingly evident
that General Foch plans to let Won
Hindenburg wear himself out in this
manner before attempting even a

drive forward for short distances, but
this is all that can be reasonably eX-
