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 tiiat 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
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
disordered liver. Take DR.. Edwards
Olive Tablets when you feel 'logy" and

FOR BURNING ECZEMA
Apply Zemo the Clean, Anti
septic Liquid-Easy to Use
Does Not Stain

Greasy salves and ointments should
not be applied if good clear skin is
wanted. From any druggist for 35c, or
Sl00 for large size, get bottle of Zemo.
When applied as directed Il effectively
removes eczema, quickly stops itching,
and heals skin troubles, also sores
burns, wounds and chatting. Il pene-
trates, cleanses and soothes. Zemo is
a clean, dependable and inexpensive,
antiseptic liquid. Try il, as we believe
nothing you have ever used is as effect
tive and satisfying.
In skin troubles, ordinary soaps are
irritating and liable to aggravate the
condition. Use Zemo soap. Il is anti
septic, soothing and hastens the proc

and misfertunes. That Is why we give
such swift wings to gossip about the
good and the; great. II explains the
fact, which this Lesson should help us
Ter to remember the sins and weak
nesses OF King David than his really
royal character and devotion to the
welfare of his people and his SINGERS
zeal for the glory of Jehovah.
David was a monarch among men,
a great man by all tests. He led old
Israel to it's highest eminenee of
greatness; and. what is more. he lived
a life of bFead-minded tolerance and
courage and justice. History is prone
to link the name of David with Bath
sheba and Uriah; let us not forget the
more representative side of his life,
as typified by his conduct towards
Saul, Jonathan and Mephibosheth.
Once a Kansas woman won a prize
TOR a definition of success in the fol-
lowing words. which surely fit King
David: He has achieved success who
has lived well. laughed often, and
loved much; who has gained the trust
of pure women and the love of little
children; who has filled his niche and
accomplished his task who has left
the world better than he found IL.

feet poem. or rescued soul; who has
never lacked appreciation of earth's
beauty or failed to express it,; who has
always looked for the best in others
and has given the best he had; whose
DRY benedietien."
At the Kings Table.
Naturally, this beautiful incident in
the life of King David is a favorite
with preachers and teachers, because
of its parallelism and symbolism. 1t
depicts the mercy of God toward man,
for His Sons sake, even as David dis
l-sr .,
for his fathers sake. And the royal
favor which rescued the lame man
from the lot of a fugitive and gave
| him a place at the royal tabk pre-
figures the goodness OF COD who
makes US partakers, with Christ, of
His kingly bounty.
For the love of God is broader than the
measure OF mans mind,
! And the heart of the Eternal is most won
derfully kind"
I Sduarely fitting our own day is this
| Lessons message upon kingly char
acter. Changes are all about US, and
| still coming. There never was such
! an overturning of the established or
der as we are now witnessing. The
bottom has come to the top in many
places. The high have been brought
low. Rich have been made poor, and
poor have become rich. Unless there
is the David spirit of magnanimity. Of
forgiveness. of tolerance, of good will.
of the forward look, of zeal fer the
common welfare the future seems
dark indeed, Obviously, and prac-
ticalIy, it should be the concern of
each one of us in his own sphere, how
ever limited, to display bigness of
spirit and freedom from hate and
petty reprisal.

success of the new kingdom of hu-

THE DIRECT PRIMARY.

tThe direct primary has been tried
ont in the east and appears to have
proven unsatisfactory. An informal
state convention OF Republicans in
New York has declared against it.
There is much dissatisfaction with the
system in Kansas but it has worked
to the advantage of so many politi-
clans that it may be doubted that its
repeal would be possible. Not enough
people feel interested one way or the
other.
Worthy of the voters consideration
is. the following Indictment OF the law
appearing in the Hartford Courant:
1t invites the use of money 1t
leads to corruption. It fails to sx-
press the opinions of the voters. 1t
often is used by one party to foist on
another party an unfit candidate. And,
what is least important, but more eff
fective as an argument for the aboli-
tion-it makes one more election.
There is the primary and then comes
| the eleetion-in effect the same per-
Torrance over again. This, like the
PRIMARY itself. is ali right in theory.
In this country the more politics the
! bettsr government is a sound PROPOSE
! ton, but in practice it doesn't work.
The people under self government
avoid political responsibilities as far as
possible. Annual elections have been
almost universally abolished and the
real reason was not to secure longer
terms of service. It was to get rid Of
the annoyance of an election
! - The recent Republican primaries
for delegates to the national conven-
1 zion showed the weakness OF the pri-
mary. Take Michigan. johnson con-
seentrated his vote and against him
were several candidates each with "a
Following The result was that he got
1.-The delegates, tho the state was against
aim.
This is only a single instance of a
general situation The primary is
sound in argument but in effect it
falls down. If it falls to provide the
lfp1t Ilmen8 Of the wishes of the people,
vt is q failure, and that is its fate. A
reversal to the old conventions. even if
they were not perfect. is 8 step in the
right direction.

We have read with SEINE interest
the story of the baptism by immersion
of Governor Cox at the time of his ac-
ceptance eff the United Brethren faith
On the whole. the reporter who wrote
II performed creditably. His visual
izatien of the creek in which the bap-
tism occurred is a bright and ripping
pen picture But he omitted one de-
tail Of the ritual of reporting; he
didn't say Governor Cox was baptized
thru a hole cut in the ice.
In our day ne reporter would have
dared turn in a story OF q baptizing
wholly lacking in reference to the
hole cut in the ice. It would not have
been considered geed reporting to do
so.
Governor eox's adherence to it's
creed lends interest, IL not luster. to
the u. B. church. which is less widely
prevalent and net so we'll known ~
some of the other Protestant bodies.
AS we recall 1t. and If we are in error.
we ask to be corrected. the United
Brethren Church embodies certain of
the characteristics of the Methodist
and Baptist organizations together
with a light strain Calvanisrn.
AS we rem enaber 1t. aitho the years
have served somewhat TO cloud our
racollections. the United Brethren hell
is a most disagreeable and unpleasant
place.
