Fans will remember what a nervous
disposition Johnny Evers had when he
was astar second sacker for the Chi
cago Cubs. In fact, his friends have
been so unkind as to say that 1t is his
temperament that his keeping him
shelved as manager at present. He
says he is cured now since being
'ioyerseas."

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

DR.. Edwards Olive Tablets-the sub
stitute for calomel-are mild but sure
laxative, and their effect on the liver IS
almost instantaneous. These little olive
Colored tablets are the result OF Dr.
Edwards determination not to treat
liver and bowel complaints with calomeL
The pleasant little tablets do the
good that calomel does, but have no
bad after effects. They don't injure the
teeth like strong liquids OF 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 calomel. Let DR.. Edwards Olive
Tablets take its place.
Headaches, "dullness" and that lazy
feeling come from constipation and a
dlsordered liver. Take DR.. Edwards
Olive Tablets when you feel "logy and
heavy" They clear" clouded brain
and 'perk up" the spirits. l0cand 25c.

The Wilson administration, due to the
insistence of American manufacturers and
exporters, officially lifted the American
commercial blockade of Soviet Russia on
July 7th. That the lifting of the blockade,
which has been responsible for the starv-
alton and deaths of thousands of innocent
women and children in Russia is the direct
result Of an accepted basis of trade rela-
tons between Great Britain and Russia, is
now apparent in the reports of Russian
delegations on their way to England for
the purpose of preparing for the resump-
tion of trade. Merchants here have no
desire to see the rich field of Russian COM

message which he said had been for.
warded to the Socialists:
"The executive Of the Third Inter.
rationale believes, if there is no diff
ference between it and the American
Socialists, there is no need of a
separate Socialist party in the United
States, and he calls on the American
Socialists to unite with the American
Communist party.
"Before we can admit this body to
membership we must have guarantees
that the officials at its head who are
responsible for the American Socialist

rationale has issued an official proc
lamation through the organ of the
Communist Internationale to the Amer.
lean proeltariat represented by the
l. W, W. and we are confident they
will give a satisfactory answer to this
proclamation. The mistakes of the I

arena Of politics, but II they will study

Among the labor unions in The
United States the Communist party
has been propagating an extensive in.
suuection against Gompors and his
fellows, declaring them the tools Of the
capitalist class. Representatives Of in.

into Russia to study at the communist
propaganda school. The Third Inter

Declaring the revolutionary move

leaders of Russia are bending every
effort to unite all the radical parties
under the banner of the Third Inter

During my stay in Moscow con
tract was drawn up between the lead
ers of the Communist party of America
and of the Communist Labor party Of
America, signed by them, and sent to
the United States for approval. The
president of the Third Internationale,
