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

Dr. Edwards Olive Tablets&the sub
sttute 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 calomol does. but have no
bad after effects. They don't iniure 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 It is best not 10
take calomel Let Or. Edwards Olive
Tablets take its place.
Headaches. "dullnees" and that lazy
feeling come from constipation and a
disordered liver. Take Or Edwards
Olive Tablets when you feel "loggy" and
heavy" They "cloar" clOuded brain
and "perk up" the spirits. i5c and soc.

JUDGE ORDERS

COMPLAINT is
HEARD IN TALBOT

EAsToN. Nd. Nov. 22.-The No.
vember term OF the Circuit Court
for Talbot county convened yester-
day. Judges Adkins, wickes and
Hooper beng present Ormond Ham
mond was made foreman OF the
grand jury
Chief Judge Adkins in charging
the jury spoke on the violations OF
the liquor laws. saying. in part.
1T at any time there exists in a
community n widespread belief that
law IN which people generally are
Interested being definitely violated.
not only is that a proper matter
for the investigation OF a grand jury,
but II cannot be ignored without
creating the impression Of indiffer-
ence on the part OF the grand jury.
Such an attitude. need not remind
you. both invites violation OF the
particular law and (what Ia far
more) undermines respect for all
laws.
1--WE have had in Talbot county
for many years law known az the
local option law. II is still in force.
That law prohibits not only the sale
OF. but the taking or soliciting
orders for intoxicating liquors
Since the adoption OF the Eigh-
teenth Amendment to the Federal
Constitution. known as the prohl-
bition amendment. there have been
few prosecutions for violations OF
our local law before magistrates
and none, so far as can recall, in
this court"
II this condition indicates a strict
observance OF the law tho county is
to be congratulated. II, on the other
hand. It means that our sworn off,
GERS have become less viligant In re-
spect to this particular law or has
less disposition to enforce IT, then
a condition has arisen for which a
remedy must be sought.
ask that you make a thorough In
vestigation OF the matter and 10 re-
port to the court the results, even II
they should not lead to indictments.
Yours IL the only body clothed with
adequate powers to make such an
inquisition.
II there is no such condition here
as has been currently reported. or
II the condition has been exagger-
ated your finding to that effect
should be recorded.
on the other hand, should you be
satisfied that the law is being per-
slstently and definitely violated. you
should spare no time or effort to
ind the culprits. Should the evi.
dence not warrant indictments, your
report should at least advise the
court OF tho condition you have
found and make such recommends
lions as in your opinion would be
helpful.
Whatever may be ones Individual
opinion OF any law. I am sure no
good citizen is willing TO stand for
lawlessness, and that Is what the
Encouragement, active or passive, OF
the violation OF a law which one
does not happen to approve leads
to and means.
