BETTER THAN CALOMEL
Thousands Have Discovered
DIR. Edwards Olive Tablets
Are a Harmless Substitute.

DIR. Edwards Olive Tabiets-the
substitute for caIomel-are a mild
but sure laxative, and their effect
on the liver is almost instantaneous.
These little olive-coiored tablets are
the result of DIR. Edwards de-
termination not to treat liver and
bowel complaints with calomel.
The pleasant little tablets do the
good that calomeI does, but have no
bad after effects. They don't injure
che teeth like strong liquids or
CalOmel. They take hold of the
trouble and quickly correct it. Why
cure the liver at the expense of the
teeth? Calomel sometimes plays
havoc with the gums. So do strong
liquids. 1t is best not to take caI0-

Easily and cheaply made at home,
but it beats them all for
quick results.

Thousands of housewives have
found that they can save two-thirds
of the money usually spent for
cough preparations, by using this
well known old recipe for making
cough syrup at home. 1t is simple
and cheap, but it really has no equal
for prompt results. 1t takes right
hold of a cough and gives imme=
diate relief, usually stopping an Or
binary cough in "a hours or less.
Get ~. ounces of Pinex from any
druggist, pour it into a pint bottle
and add plain granulated sugar
syrup to make a full pint. If you
prefer, use clarified molasses, honey
or corn syrup, instead of sugar
syrup. Either way, it tastes good,
Keeps perfectly, and lasts family
a long time.

it acts, penetrating through every

BILL GIVING POLICE
MORE WAGES READY

Amendment Forbids Federal
Employees Joining ''Strike"
Organizations.

The bill increasing the pay of the
policemen of the District of Columbia,

ready to be sent to conference today.

The conferees named by the Senate

Before RAISING the bill last night
the Senate adopted an amendment
proposed by Senator Myers OF
Montana, which is designed to prevent
all organizations of government en-
ployes from affiliation with the Amer
lean Federation of Labor or any other
outside union which uses the strike
in the adjustment of grievances. II
retained in the bill, this amendment
would prohibit the affiliation of the
Federation of Federal Employees with
the American Federation of Labor. and
would affect unions of government
employees in the navy yards, the gov
ernment printing office, etc.

"No organization of governmental

side organizat ton which uses the
strike or which assists any other or
ganiZation in the use of the strike in

Senator King of Utah, while dis

Opposed Myers Amendment.

Senator Harrison of Mississippi
spoke in opposition to the Myers
amendment, declaring that he did not
think it had any business in bill
dealing with the police department of
the District of Columbia. He pointed
cut that it's effect would be far reach
ing, and would touch men in the en-
ploy of the government who have
heen organized in unions for years
and affiliated with outside organiza-
ticns, as in the navy yards, the Post
Office Department. and, at present,
men who are employed on the rail-
roads.
1t was apparent that the senators
in charge of the measure were chiefly
concerned with giving the police of
the District additional pay and that
they were unwilling to jeopardize the
passage of the bill with amendments.
This attitude was especially ex-
pressed by Senator Sheppard of Texas
when he said "let the bill go to con-
ference as it is and it can be worked
out there" in reference to an amend
n,ent proposed by Senator Curtis of
Kansas reducing the pay of police
surgeons from $500 to $1,400.

canada's Relations With q. S.


"But Canada shares with the United
States the splendid territories of this
rich continent. She is divided from
you by no physical barrier. no mill
tary line. no frontier other than a
boundary guaranteed by international
law and good will. North of that
frontier we cherish our British insti-
our British allegiance to the king.
South of it you cheish equally the
institutions into which the American
citizen is born. The forms are diff
ferent. but the human aim of both
systems of government is the same.
1T seems to me that this example
of nations living side by side in d
spirit of political tolerance and
human liberty is entirely incom
patible with the militarism which
threatened Europe in the great war,
and is thus a living example of the
great principles for which we gave
our best in that terrible ordeal.
