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

Dr.. Edwards Olive Tablets-the sub
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 re-
suit 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 il 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 you feel "logy'' and
heavy" They clear cloudsd brain

~ just been married for the
4 n fourteenth time says she
Is having difficult time finding
the right man. 1t isn't her fault
that she hasn't found him, she's
certainly tried hard enough.
After fourteen marriages and
thirteen divorces it's wonder
the city officials don't arrest her
for wearing out the courthouse
steps.
OF course weddings are now
Just matter of routine with her.
She's had SO many of them that
she could get married in the
dark.
She hires a minister by the
month and buys her trOusseaus
wholesale.
This one is her last marriage.
she says she's going to leave
some men for the other women
1t isn't every 43.year-Old woman
who can boast of fourteen honey.
moons.
Most girls are satisfied if they
can have two or three.
Of course, our grandmOtllers
were tickled to death to get one.
This woman has been marrying
Tor the last Twenty-Five years.
That's an average of one husband
every twenty-five months.
Two years is long time to
keep one guy, especially if you're
ambitious.
She claims she's going to keep
on marrying until she gets the
right man, and you must admit
she's got good start.
Wedding fourteen men requires
lots of attention. She spends
half of her time in church and
the other half i'm divorce courts.
A woman who goes through
90 many ceremonies doesn't have
much time to herself
OF course she manages to get
q few leisure hours between nus
bands.
She'll soon have enough di-
vorce DEGREES to paper her din
ing room.
And she's to do the parlOr walls
In marriage licenses.
A few more marriages and
she'll have enough wedding rings
to use for portiers.
The average girl can count her
husbands on her fingers, but this
st. Louis dame has to use an
adding machine.
Then when she totals them all
up she gets an expert accountant
to go over the figures.
She says her latest husband is
the ideal man and that they're
going to be very happy. This
isn't at all encouraging to him
when she's told the same thing to
the other thirteen.
There's only one thing for him
TO do, stick around as long as
possible and then when she gives
him the air, go out and join the
