QUICK RELIEF FROM
 CONSTIPATION

That is the joyful cry of thou sands since Dr Edwards produced Olive Tablets, the substitute for calomel.
 pr Edwards, . practicing physl- clan for 20 years, and ealomers old-time enemy. discovered the formula for Olive Tablets while treating patients for chronic con- stipation and torpid flyers.
 Olive Tablets do not contain calomel, just 3 healing, soothing vegetable laxative safe and pleas- ant.
 No griping is the "keynote" of these little sugar coated, olive colored tablets. They help cause the bowels and liver to act normal ly. They never force them to un- natural action. fs
 If you have Q "dark brown mouth''--bad breath--a; dull, tired feeling - sick headache - torpid livar--constipation, you should find quick, sure and pleasant results from one or two of pr Edwards Olive Tablets. MF

 Washington.-- race for peer or reDea1-or both---in the short session of congress iD on.
 The vets of congress are on one horse. old Father Time is on the other. The finish line is next March q. when the present Lame Duck congress passes out of existence, and the stake in this race against time is afl estimated 0,OOO,O0O annual tax on beer which is sorely needed to help balance the nations budget for the coming year.
 There are only 60 legislative days in the short session. with a huge accumulation of important issues demanding attention. That explains Speaker John Gamers determination to get early action on prohibition.
 Regardless of the steps already taken, these points stand out:
 1---Conkress, itself, cannot repeal the 18th amendment. It can only vote to.-submit a repeal resolution to the states for their ratification, and such resolution must be passed by the senate as well as by the house by two-thirds majority. Then 36 states (three-fourths) must vote for ratification before the Constitution can be changed.
 2-However, congress can legal ize beer by modifying the Volstead act so as to permit beverages of higher alcoholic content than one- half of per cent.
 But here are some of the hur- dles that any modification act must jump before it can come down the home stretch in the race against Time and the budget: ...
 ALCOHOLIC CONTENT-2.75 5 or per cent beer, or somewhere
 DIsTRIBUTIoN-shail beer be sold anywhere. or only in restrict ed places?
 CoNsTITUTIoNALITY - What is a "non-intoxicating beverage" since intoxicating beverages are prohibited by the Constitution?
 POSSIBLE VETO-Can Presi- dent Hoover be expected to sign a beer bill. accepting It's constitp- tionality,, and if not, could a beer bill bes passed over his veto by a two-thirds majority?
 So much for modifying the volstead act. Now for the move- rnent to repeal the 18th amend Inent which, despite the situation in the house, seems certain to face obstacles in the senate.
 Aside from the fact that two- thirds majority is required in each house, here are some of the ob- stacles:
 Shall the amendment be re- peaIed, as the democratic plat form proposed, or revised so as to prohibit the saloon and protec. dry states, as the republicans proposed? N
 Shall the new amendment be submitted to state conventions elected by the people specifically for that job, or to state legisla- lures, nearly all of which are to meet this winter?
 In. addition, there is the desire of some moderate drys. such as Senator George Norris of Nebraska, to try beer as 8 temperance meas-
