Thousands Of people in Whining
ton are needlessly suffering from dis-'
orders OF the blood, stomach, liver
and kidneys. Relief is near at hand
and Is within the reach Of every
one. Many have found quick deliv-
erance from their suffering by the
use OF Plant Juice, the new herbal
stomach medicine. which is compos-
ed OF a combination OF natures rem
edies, roots, herbs. barks and ber-
ries. that are essential to health.
That is why It regenerates the

tism, eliminates catarrh and puts the
stomach in condition TO digest the
food properly.
That this is proven conciusively It
Is only necessary TO listen to the
statements made daily by local peo-
pie who have given Plant Juice a
fair trial.
Take, for instance. the testimonial
recently given by Mr.. Stanley f.
Derejko, OF No. s5s Bennett street.
who Is employed in a large plant
here and has many friends. He said:
Il cannot find words to express
my gratitude TO Plant Juice for the

Better Than CalOmel
Thousands Have Discovered DR..
Edwards Olive Tablets are
a Harmless Substitute

DIT. Edwards Olive Tabiets-the cub
stitute for calomel-are a 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 calo-
mel.
The pleasant little tablets DO the
good that caiomel 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 II. Why cure the liver
al the expense OF the teeth7 Caiomei
sometimes plays havoc with the gums.
SO do strong liquids. II is best not TO
take calomel. Let Or. Edwards Olive
Tablets take It's place.
Headaches, "duliness'' and that lazy
feeling come from constipation and a
disordered liver. Take Dr. Edwards
Olive Tablets when you feel '1oggy'' and
heavy" They clear, clouded brain
and "perk up" the spirits. 15c and 30c.

DiUOrce and ReUenge

"she Is bobbed and rouged, hun
adorns and fills her head. She Is
pretty, but ignorant, selfish and lazy.
Queer-how beauty can fool man.
Now my former husband is one
OF the fastidious and esthetic sort.
He needs a real wife TO see TO his
comforts. He loves to be taken care
OF. He must have an orderly, spick
and span home; and a delicious lit
tie dinner to complete his day. His
feet are sensitive; he never had TO
put on a sock with hole in It while
1 lived with him.
Did he think OF these necessities
when he sell in love with pink skin
and a perfect SO figure7
He did not. He was so used to
my care that he had come to expect
It as his natural right He never
gave my industry a thought. He
supposed all wives were like that.
He learned. Times changed for
him the day 1 packed my trunk.
His new wife Is as indolent as
extravagant. 1 made many OF my
clothes, she charges hers at the best
shops.
MY former husband now lives on
delicatessen products and timed
foods which he loathes. They make
him dyspeptic.
The result Is a worried and a
harassed man; he Is thin and cranky
before his time.
The poor man steals over to call
upon our daughter and play with
our baby grandson, and when see
him. could weep, not for him, but
over him.
His own children are ashamed TO
meet him with his baby-girl wife.
BY following his romantic impulse,
their father has ruined the last
years Of his life.
My revenge Is complete. No
wronged wife could ask more-but
it is Ike a cup OF poison.
when I surrendered him TO that
,girl, 1 delivered him up 70 the worst
side OF his nature.
Il, the wife OF years. knew his
strength and his weakness. 1 never
should have divorced him, I should
have compelled him to live up to his

RICHMOND HIGH LANDS
