And not until such a solution Is

again to man.
Wise Policy Needed
A wise American policy, a policy
which would seek not only the relief
OF the Russian people but the relief
OF our own people, would be the
formulation of plans under which the
vast natural wealth of Russia could
be used as a basis of credit where
with Russia could buy food, seeds,
agricultural implements and ma
chinery she needs for restoration Of
her productive power.
Russia today is in ruin because of
her sacrifices in the World War.
She needs charity, mercy, justice.
She has abandoned her impossible
theories Of communism, and she

Russia is the richest of all ma

BETTER THAN CALOMEL
Thousands Have Discovered
DR.. Edwards Olive Tablets
are a Harmless Substitute

DR.. Edwards Olive Tablets-the SUBJ
stitute for calomel-are a mild but sure
laxative, and their effect on the liver is
observation-disclosures. 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
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. 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 youfeel "logy" and
"heavy." They ~"clear" clouded brain
and "perk up" the spirits. 15c and 30c.

COMMON SENSE WAYS TO KEEP WELL

ventilation so widely used in large
school buildings frequently fails to
fall under the true definition of ven-
t~ilation. Most of these systems de-
mand that no one open a>window
and lie in some real fresh air.
Tests have been made again and
again which concluslvely prove that
children enjoy better health and
make greater progress when they
have open window ventilation.
Vendors Of these ventilating sys-
TENS claim that such systems keep
the rooms warm. This is true. In
most cases they keep the rooms too
warm. The temperature of a room
should nevsl exceed IS degrees
Fahrenheit. Growth is not stimulat-
ed by heat. Inhabitants of temperate
zones always have led the world in
every field of progress.

niteracy in
Politics Crime
I'm Red Russias
CBy Associated Press)

Moscow, Feb. 15.-Political illitera-
cy is a worse crime than bigamy in
SOVIET Russia. Cupid's errors are
painlessly, simultaneously and mex
pensively cured by Bolshevist courts /;
but ignorance of Bolshevist laws is
punished by sentence to courses in
Communist schools organized to enlight-
en- those untaught in the ways of the
Soviet Republic.
Ivan Ivanovich Linsky was recently
faced in Moscow court by two wives
and five children.
81 didn't know that it was neces-
sary to get divorce and thought my
living apart from my wife whom l
didn't love any longer was proof that
1 didn't want her." was Linsky's de
tense.
One woman was granted divorce,
and Linsky was instructed to enter
the school for the liquidation of polit-
ieal illiteracy at the government
printing office, where he will be
taught that wives may be disposed
of only by making declaration before
Soviet court that one does not want
them and paying a fine of 10000 ru-
bles.
It's much easier than the Reno
treatment and Moscow should become
a popular resort for mismated for
eigners after Soviet Russia gets the
recognition necessary to make Rus
sian divorces waterproof abroad.
There are no residence requirements
and difference of political views" is
the ground on which many divorces
are granted.
Alimony has not yet come into fash
ion in Russia. Under the old Com
munist ideal nobody had anything,
theoretically, and everybody worked
and was supported by the state. With
the reversion to capitalists ways and
the recognition of the rights of per-
sonal property, divorce proceedings
may soon be tinged by mammon.
