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

DR.. Edwards Olive Tablets are the
result of Dr. Edwards determination
not to treat liver and bowel complaints
with calomel. For Il years he used
these tablets "a vegetable compound
mixed with olive OLD in his private
practice with great success
They do all the good that calomel
does but have no bad after effects. No
pains, no gripping, no injury to the
gums or danger from acid foods-yet
they stimulate the liver and bowels
Take Dr.. Edwards Olive Tablets
when you feel ''logy" and heavy. !"
Note how they clear clouded brain and
perk up the spirits. IOc and 25c box.

Believed Backed By Milwau-
kee Rail Company.

That the Davenport, Springfield
and Southern Railroad company,
an electric road recently organized.
Is backed by the Milwaukee lines,
is the general belief of tri-city rail-
road men. The new road will tap
the rich coal fields of southern ut
nois, where the Milwaukee has no
access, by a shorter route. The
first map Of the D. s. & S. right-of-
way has been received here, and
crossing OF the Mississippi between
the terminal at Davenport and Rock
Island, is indicated.
Promoters Of the new line have
asked a certificate Of convenience
from the Illinois public utility COM
mission and have been backed IN
their request by delegations from
so Illinois cities. The commission
will give it's answer next Wednes-
day at Springfield. III. II permits
sion is granted the promoters say
they will at once begin construc-
ton of the line.
May Lower Goal Cost.
The new road is a direct route
to the Illinois coal fields and prom
ises to lower cost of this important
commodity in the industrial life of
the tri-cities.
At the present time the mileage
from Duquoin, the shipping point
of the Franklin county district. to
Minneapolis is I'll miles, figuring
shipment to Chicago via the I'LL
neis Central and to Minneapolis
over the Milwaukee.
By the Davenport, Springfield &
Southern the mileage is 622 miles,
or a haul shorter by SO miles. figur-
ing Duquoin to the tri-cities via

Proves Itself Master of This
Painful Disease.

Hallway treatment of Rheuma-
tism will never rid you Of it. Bet
ter realize from the outset that
when Rheumatism attacks. YOU
have a real battle on your hands,
and that it's a mans job to get
rid of it.
Temporizing with Rheumatism
by the use of liniments, lotions
and other external methods OF
treatment, is like trying to coax
an enemy to let up in his attacks,
and permit you to conquer him
without resistance.
But you soon learn that Rheu-
matism will not treat you with
this consideration. The tiny little
germs flock together by the mil
lions and center their attack with
undivided force. The effects OF
the disease are gradual in taking
hold on the system. In fact, the
pains are only slight at first and
do not attract your serious atten-
ton, but they gradually increase
in severity until your entire sys-
tenn is firmly within the grip OF
the disease. 1t is then that you
have real fight on your hands,
for you will find that Rheumatism
is a foe that knows just how to
cripple you. The pains that were
hardly noticeable at first, become
your constant companions and
seem to take delight in your suf-
fering.
OF course, if this painful disease
was on the surface only, you
might reasonably expect to get
relief by the use Of surface reme-
dies, such as liniments and other
local applications. But the source
of the disease germs find lodg-
ment there and multiply by the
millions and scatter, by means of

the blood circulation throughout
your system.
The sensible treatment for this
disease, and the only one from
which you can expect satisfactory
results, is a treatment that goes
down into the blood supply and
reaches the source of the disease.
S. S. S. is a wonderful blood rem
edy and is the logical treatment
for rheumatism, because Il
promptly permeates the entire
blood supply and searches out and
neutralizes the disease germs.
If you are a victim Of Rheuma-
tism, you can take S. S. S. with
the assurance that you are not ex-
Pcrimenting, but using a remedy
that has brought relief to thou
sands who have suffered from this
painful disease. This great old
remedy has been sold all over the
United States for more than fifty
years, and has been used with
gratifying results. 1t is a great
blessing for a sufferer to become
acquainted with the powers Of
IS. S. s., for in this remedy is
found the help that can come only
from the proper treatment.
Many letters have been written
to US by those who have used
S. s. S, telling of the good it has
done them. Their statements will
be heloful to many others who Suf-
fer, and we will be glad to send
you some Of these testimonials,
full Of this direct evidence Of the
value Of s. S. s.
We maintain a medical depart
ment for the benefit of all who are
afflicted, and our Chief Medical
Adviser, who is familiar with all
forms Of Rheumatism, will gladly
give you advice without charge as
to the treatment Of your own case.
