SENATOR PHELAN INTERESTED IN
 SULzER'S FIGHT Great California Citizen and Senator Desires
 That Delegate Be Reelected.
HAS OBSERVED WORKS
Man Who Had Charge of Reorganization After Bib Fire Says Sulzer Has
 Been Hard Worker.

Senator James D, Phelan of Cali fornia has written letter to Dele gate Charles A. Sulzer, expressing interest in his campaign for re-elec tion, and expressing the hope that he will be returned to Congress.
 Senator Phelan is generally recog- nized as the leading citizen of San Francisco. He serVed several terms as a Mayor of the city, and later though private citizen at the time he was practically made the city's dictator at the time of the fire, and was chairman of the reorganization committee which had full charge Of the reconstruction and reorganization of the city. He was the life of the committee, and for a long time his word was law. The work that he did at that time was such that II you today ask anyone in San Fran cisco, from the highest to the low Hest, "who is San Francisco's first citizen?" the answer will be Jim Phelan.
 Senator Phelan's letter follows:
 Washington, D. C., Oct. 3, 1918 Hon. Charles A. Sulzer,
 Juneau, Alaska.
 My Dear MT. Sulzer:
 q am following with much inter est the campaign in Alaska, and trust you shall be returned to Con gross, because the experience you have gained will not only be of value to the Territory, but to the Pacific Coast.
 q have observed your activities before the Senate Committee on Pub lie Lands, and the Committee on Mines and Mining, and am glad to express my hearty interest in your success.
 with best wishes, I am, (Signed) JAMES D. PHELAN.'

BAD BREATH
DR.. Edwards Olive Tablets Get
at the Cause and Remove It

DR.. Edwards Olive Tablets, the substi-
tute for calomel, act gently on the bowels
and positively do the work.
People afflicted with bad breath find
quick relief through DR.. Edwards
Olive Tablets. The pleasant, sugar
coated tablets are taken for bad breath
by all who know them.
DR.. Edwards Olive Tablets act gently
but firmly on the bowels and liver,
stimulating them to natural action,
clearing the blood and gently purifying
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.. F. M. Edwards discovered the
formula after seventeen years of prac-
tee among patients afflicted with
bowel and liver complaint, with the
attendant bad breath.
DR.. Edwards Olive Tablets are purely
a vegetable compound mixed with olive
oil; you will know them by their olive
color. Take one or two every night for
week and note the effect. lOc and Csc

WEEK PLANNED
The First Week in December Set
Aside for More Pledges to Save
Food to Keep Allies from
Starving

To bring before the American peo-
pie in a forcible manner the need for
saving food and sharing it with the al
lies and liberated nations, the food ad-
ministration has named December Is
as Conservation week.
Conservation is vital to the relief of
stricken Europe, it says. Our harvest
season has come and gone and what
ever food is exported must come
from our surplus and from our saw
ings, very largely the latter. Certain
foods such as meats, fats and dairy
products, 1t IL true, are produced
throughout the year. but even these
depend largely on feeds and fodder,
supplies of which are limited and can
not be replenished until another har-
vest.
The original pledge made by the
food administration in behalf of the
people of the United States was sew
enteen and one half million tons OF
food to be shipped overseas by July L
1919. This amount of food is fifty per
cent greater than last year. With Bel
GUM and France liberated and mil.
