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

Dr. Edwards Olive Tablets-th sub stitute for calornel are a mild but sure laxative, and their effect on the liver ia alnostinstantaneous. These little olive colored tablets are the result of Dr. Edwards, determination not to treat hver and bowel complaints with calomei.
 The pleasant little tablets do the good that caloInel does, but have no bad after effects. They don't injure the teeth like strong liquids or caionleI. They take hold of the trouble and quickly correct 1t. Why cure the liver at the expense of the teeth? Calomel sometimes plays havoc with the gums. So do strong liquids. It is best not to take calomei. Let Dr. Edwards Olive Tablets take its place.

complaints regarding the work of the
assessors, and appeals for reductions
on the list There were but two who
called during the day to enter COM
plants. j. w. Eastwood of Strong
court, and Mrs. Mary A. Karageorge,
proprietor of theSAtolonial Inn were
these two. Mrs. karageorge had her
property raised from $9,470 to So
$50. She thought the property was
valued too high in view of the fact
that the property did not contain
as much ground as last year. A land
parcel of about SO feet long by $50
feet deep had been sold to the Plain
vile Trust company recently and she
felt they should reduce the valuation
considerably, instead of increasing it.
She has had some alterations made
inside the place, one section which
contained a pool parlor was conveyed
into a five room apartment She
claims that there are but two roomers
in the place at present.

with prominent men who were in a
position to give a good account of
conditions.
England, he felt, was coming back
to its normal conditions rapidly. The
country has a large capital and by
no means broke. Stories to the effect
that labor troubles were numerous,
are greatly exaggerated, in his esti-
nation. There have been several
mine strikes to be sure, but these
have practically all been settled. The
average business is progressing at a
good rate and they are kept busy.
There is much work in the shipyards,
and there are more ships now under
construction than ever before in
normal times.
France is. not so we'll off. Mr..
Chandler spoke in high esteem OF the
Frenchmen and calls them the brav-
est of any nations country men in
Europe. They are thrifty, even
though having been hit hard by the
war, and are gradually coming back
TO Dre-war times. There are places
in France which have been vastly
devasted and there has been no con-
struction work done in these regions
yet. Other towns, which did not
suffer to any great extent have been
rebuilt and are busy. The women in
that country are very thrifty and
hard working, and can be seen in
the fields doing a mans work any
time of the day. France is typically
a small nation of property owners.
Each peasant, no matter how poor,
generally Gyms a small tract of land
which they till. There are places
that are horribly handicapped. Fac
tories had been destroyed and ma
chinery within smashed. Mr.. Chandler
spoke we'll of a representative from
Illinois by the name of Britton. This
man he said, fought against a bill
that had been brought forward in
congress to the effect that France
should send men over to the army of
occupation in Germany. France is in
no condition to aid in this end. With
more than one and a quarter million
of men killed and three to four mill
lion crippled, they should be elm
mated from this work.
Italy is suffering greatly from lack
of coal; There is little money in the
nation, and it will take long time
to resume its normal stage.
Belgium, hit harder than any Of
the nations, is coming back to it's
normal stage nevertheless, but there
is suffering in some cities.
Belgium people are hard working
and will not rest until the country
is on its feet again.
Mr.. Chandler spoke briefly on his
visit as a delegate from the National
Chamber Of Commerce in this coun-
try, to the national conference held
at Paris.
The Plainville Business association
were rewarded with % new members

George B. Chandler of Rocky Hill,
state compensation commissioner, and
member of the National Chamber of
Commerce, gave an account of his re-
cent trip to Europe, and the condi-
tionS existing there, at the smoker of
the Plainville Business and Improve
mcnt association held in the Masonic
Temple last night. There were fully
125 members and friends present who
heard Mr.. Chandler. A short business
meeting preceded the speaking. The
Public Utilities commission will take
up the matter of reducing the num-
Der of parties on the local telephone
lines. There are more than four on
some of the lines at present, and this
is too much considering the fact that
the line is busy the greater part of the
time and inconvenience is experienced
in getting calls. The Public Utilities
also took up the matter with Mr. Null
vihill, freight agent at the station, for
improvements in the conditions of
Neal Court and the Railroad street
districts.
Mr.. Chandler was introduced to the
assem- bly, and spoke for fully one
and one-half hours. He held the at
tention of audience throughout his
talk. He complimented the PlainviIle
business men on their accomplish
ments towards the welfare of the
town and said that these organizations
were constantly getting in closer touch
with the larger ones, such as the
State and National Chamber Of COM
merce activities. Better relationship
and cooperation is encountered every
day through these organizations.

Europe. Mr. Chandler gave a brief
outline of how things were in France.
