BETTER THAN cALOMEL
Thousands Have Discovered
Dr.. Edwards Olive Tablets
are a Harmless Substitute

DR.. Edwards Olive Tablets-the sub
stitute for c11omel-are a mild but sure
laxative, ant 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 or calomel.
They take hold of the trouble and
quickly correct it. Why cure the liver
It 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.

feeling come from constipation and a

Ing Extra Session.
Special TO Times Republican.
Des Moines. March 9.--James II
Weaver, state representative from
Polk county In the last two sessions
Of tho legislature. In a public state
mcnt given out here attacks Gov
ernor Hardings attitude toward the
special session OF the legislature de-
clarinE that his position Is unsound.
II am safe In saying that there is
not a member Of the general assem-
big but would be glad on mere per-
scnal grounds to be relieved from the
intense labor and personal incon-
venience OF an extra session" says
Representative Weaver.
"The reasons given by the gov
ernor. however are unsound and a
mere evasion and In no adequate way
meet the necessity for code revision
urged by the governor and which he
aid the legislature recpsnizcd a year
age could not be properly done at a
regular session.
"As FOR the situation Of the schools
and the teachers Of the state no ses-
sion in twenty years has done as
much In the way Of sound progressive
school legislation as did the Thirty
eighth general assembly In its SEES
sion OF 1919.
And yet so serious situation I'M
foreseen has arisen as a result OF the
war that both the state schools and
the general educational system of the
state are threatened with grave In
jury and disorganization II left to run
another year and half without re-
liei.
This involves the children of Iowa
and 1t is dangerous thing to allow
their interests to become the victim
Of mere political consideration. The

vince no one. That they will bring

How to Get Credit.
In a statement MIR. Roper said:
In fling returns for prior years
taxpayers reported dividends re-
ceived. including both cash and stock
dividends. without segreeating. 1t
will, therefore, be necessary for the
department to havesSpecific informa-
ton. verified by the corporations de-
claring the dividends as to the
amount Of dividends distributed to
each taxpayer; the year in which the
profits distributed were earned. and
a statement disclosing all details OF
subsequent sales Of the shares, In or
der that the amount of credit allow
able and the validity Of the claim
may be correctly and justly deter
mined.
I'm accordance with this the tax,
payer should present to the collector
formally a claim for credit for any
overpayment Of taxes in prior years
on the regular. form for that pur-
pose, and en- this form must be set
forth the full details Of dividends re-
ceived and taxes paid thereon.
Firm Must Prove Claim.
This claim must he accompanied
by a statement or certificate from the
corporation distributing the divi-,
bends. showing the amount distribut-
ed to the taxpayer and the years In
which profits distributed were
earned.
Taxpayers on complying with
these requirements will be permit
ted by the collectors to credit the
amounts due them against any In
stallment Of taxes remaining unpaid.
In case the credit to which the tax
payer is entitled exceeds the amount
OF taxes remaining unpaid a claim
for refund of the difference may be
fled" .
