BETTER THAN CALOMEL
Thousands Have Discovered DR..
Edwards Olive Tablets are
a Harmless Substitute.

Dr.. Edwards Olive Tablets-the substi.
tute for calomel - are a mild but sure
laxative, and their effect on the liver is
almost instantaneous. They are the result
of DR.. Edwards determination not to treat
liver and bowel complaints with calomel.
His efforts to Danish it brought out these
little olive.colored tablets.
These pleasant little tablets do the good
that calomel does, but have no bad after
effects. They don't injure the teeth like
strong liquids or calomel. They take hold
of the trouble and quickly correct 1t. 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 calomel, but to let DR.. Edwards
Olive Tablets take its place.
Most headaches "dullness" and that
lazy feeling come from constipation and
disordered liver. Take DR.. Edwards
Olive Tablets when you feel '1oggy" and
heavy" Note how they "clear" clouded
brain and how they "perk UP" the spirits.

TWO YOUTHS PEDDLE
FURS ON MAIN STREET;
WIRE ALLEGES THEFT
Uncle of Pair Arrested Shortly
Afterward for Possession of
Whisky; Trio Jailed Pending
Salt Lake Instruction.

Tdo youths, giving the names OF
Bud and william Williamson were ar.
rested by Deputy Sheriff Jake Marin
Yesterday afternoon for trying to dis
pose of furs to the public on Main
street. The furs are alleged to have
been stolen at Salt Lake and wire
4 from the police there advised the
sheriff to hold them Daniel william
son, whoR the boys say is their uncle,
was arrested shortly afterward by
Chief of Police Al Roberts and is held
for Illegal possession of liquor, a pint
Of whiskey having been found on him.
Three sets of furs were found in the
boys possession and they are said to
have sold three other sets at prices
ranging from s25 to $40. The sets are
valued at $50 each, officers believe.
When accosted by the deputy sher-
iff the boys said they had a right to
peddle furs as they had obtained a
license from the city recorder Deputy
Marin made clear that the license idea
was not the point and took the two to
the Jail where they were separated
and questioned. One of the prisoners
is about II and the other about 21. An
officer probably will come from SaIt
Lake for the trio as soon as papers
can he obtained.
DaniI Williamson pleaded guilty to
the charge of having liquor when
brought into police court this morn
ing and paid his fine of 500. He was
held in connection with the
of the furs from Salt
Lake and Immediately asked for an
attorney. He wears the uniform of

y friend of the trio who says he
know Daniel Williamson five years
ago in Omaha, came with them from
Salt Lake where he met Williamson
six weeks ago. The man says Will
hanson used to be horse dealer and
believes that he is not guilty of the
theft of the furs. Williamson sent
furs by express TO Walla Walla and
Yakima and had the boys do the re-
-ailing. The friend IS not implicated |
according to the police.
