BETTER THAN CA[OME[
Thousands Have Discovered Dr. Edwards Olive Tablets
 are a Harmless Substitute

Dr. Edwards Olive TabIets-the sub sttute for caIomel-are a mild but sure laxative, and their effect on the liver is almost instantaneous. These little olive colored tablets are tn result of Dr. Edwards determination not to treat liver and bowel complaints with calomel.
 The pleasant little tablets do the good that 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. It is best not to take calomei. 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 Hog" and heavy" They "clear" clouded brain and "perk up" the spirits. 15c and BOG

SURPRISED AND DELIGHTED WITH
 GREETING,

To the Dear Social Corner: will write you of my New Years greeting. It came as a surprise in a large gilded basket filled with potted plants which will try to describe, that all the Social Corner sisters may realize it's beauty.
 Six poinsettas with their bright red blossoms and green leaves seven roses, begonias and ferns, a pepper plant with red fruit blossoms, and buds, with clus- ters of fine white flowers, all tastefuliy arranged.
 Tears of love and gratitude to God and to all the dear Social Corner sisters came freely as I gazed on it's beauty. The Bible is full of promises to all who love, read, trust and obey will be led in 1 pleasant paths on the sunny side of the way.
 May the New Year as it passes bring 1 to you all, children, grandchildren and
 great grandchildren, peace and prosper l ity is Ihe prayer of ! GREAT GRANDMOTHER.

POETRY.

The soft, blue sky leaned down toward the earth, VeiIed with white, feecy clouds that moved and stirred Like the light pinions of some sleeping bird, Poised in the ether where it had it's birth. An opal radiance shimmered in the east, Mounted and widened, till, shot through it's bars, The arrows of the sun dispersed the stars, Glad from their service to be thus re- leased. No sun which lights a perfect day in June Has ever known a fairer sky than this It should be welcomed by the songbtrds tune, Its rose and gold should greet ths south-wind's kiss Who could believe, did he not glance be- low, This glory bends above 9 waste Oa snow?
