keep LOOKING YOUNG
It's Easy-If You Know DR.
Edwards Olive Tablets

The secret of keeping young is to
feel young-to do this you must
watch your liver and bowels-theres
no need of having sallow complex
ion--dark rings under your eyes
pimples-a bilious look in your face
dull eyes with no sparkle. Your doc
tor will tell you ninety per cent of all
sickness comes from inactive bowels
and liver.
DR.. Edwards, a well known physi-
clan in Ohio. perfected a vegetable
compound mixed with olive oil to act
on the liver and bowels. which he
have to his patients for years.
Dr. Edwards Olive Tablets, the
substitute for calomel, are gentle in
their action yet always effective.
They bring about that natural buoy
ancy which all should enjoy by toning
up the liver and clearing the system
of impurities.
DR. Edwards Olive Tablets are
known by their olive color. 15c and

attention.

LOCAL OPTION
It's local option affair, with each
city deciding whether it will have
boxing under commission rule. Should
tha measure carry here, it was an
ticipated that Chicago would have its
first ring battle about June l.
Chicagoans also were handed bal

They also are deciding whether they
want geological park.

tie, Illinois is choosing between Sen

Cubist Hats
Captipate
English Maids

LONDON, April 13.-R)--
Cubist hats are the spring fash
ion in London. Girls may be
seen in the east side, west side
and all around the English me-
tropoiis wearing hats that can
boast Of no shape or color. They
are trimmed with zig-zag braid
ings OF silver and bright colors,
which stray aimlessly about the
hat or hang down from the brin
in most unexpected places.
Crowns and brims are in every
conceivable shape. HITS are in
violent contrast with suit or
frOck.
Though the spring frOeks are
dignified and feminine in line,
the trimmings and motifs are fol-
lowing the eccentric path Of the
headwear. An otherwise simple
frOck may be adorned with
huge and bun-becOming silkeI
flower with a bright artificial
gem in the center. The hem Of
the frOcks often bear an unusual
design such as a procession Of
little bears and lions or plants
or flowers.
