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

DR.. Edwards Olive Tablets are the
result of DIR. Edwards determination
not to treat liver and bowel complaints
with calomel. For II 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" ard ''heavy. "
Note how they clear clouded brain and
perk up the spirits. 10c and 25c box.

introduced in the legislature. one to
permit the sale of beverages with four

five percent. New Jersey not only failed
to ratify the federal prohibition amend

Connecticut, but went further than any
other state in the Union and its leg
islature absolutely rejected The amend
ment. The governor has urged the leg
islature to refrain in its present session
from now giving It's ratification.
Although Governor Edwards holds
liberal personal views concerning fnp

 Analysis of tie pitching records in today's game places che credit for Cleyela nd's victory with Covaleskie for his remarkable huriing, and the blame for Brooklyn's defeat squarely on the wildness of the quartet of pitchers used by the National lea ague champions, There was little to choose in the work of the Brooklyn pitchers.

HAYS SHOWING TO SCRUPlES IN HIS
 METHODS TO WIN

Governor Cox. He knew him to be an able, impetuous speaker, a fearless in- divldual witt faculties of particular appeal to the wide open west. There fore, he concluded that his press should not print what Governor Cox said On the stump.
 h Washington, it was believed by everybody that Hays would deny the charge that he had employed two agents to precede Cox with instruc- tions to the prostituted republican press to close its columns to the dem ocratic nominee. There was no doubt but that the newspapers, confronted with charge as serious to newspa- pers as ono imputing sack of virtue to woman, would make instant and viz orous denial.
 But Mir. Hays chirped not; and the newspapers, by their silence, admitted their pollution.
 And the democratic chairman says that it all goes to prove that the en- tire republican machine. including the organization, the individuals and the newspapers have no scruples as to how they win-just so they win,

 So Borah shakes his locks and grum : bles.
 The republicans put great store in the Crowell statement. They refer to the fact that Crowell was a pat of the administration. They would leave the impression that he has bolted the democratic party. It Is fact how ever, that he was always a republican The democrats find In the Crowell statement, or rather in the fact that the republican committee gave it wide publicity, an indication that the re- publicans would trim their stand against the league by Issuing an in- terview indorsing it.
