These Et tie olive colored tablets are tlte result of Dr. Edwards determination not to treat liver and bowel complaints with calomeL The pleasant little tablets do the rood that calomel does, but have no bad after effects. They don't injure the terth like strong ; liquids or calomel. The take hold of the trouble and quickly correct it.i Why cure the fiver at the expense of the teeth? Calomel sometimes plays havoc with the gums. So do rtronz liquids. It is best not to take calomel. Let Dr. Edwards Wive Tablets take its place. -Headaches, "dullness" and that lazy ' feeling come front constipation and a u cUsordered liver. Take Dr. Edwards' Olive Tablets when you feel logy"and "heavy."'' They "clear" clouded brain ; bit- not big enough to manage firm lor which you are working.

Pay not only promptly but also by check. Have a checking account in a bank. There are many advantages. Time is saved in paying bills. Money can be sent through the mail by check without danger of loss. The need for carrying large buius of mon ey in one's pocket is eliminated. It Is more business-like and accurate to pay by check. "Sins and debls," said Hen Frank lin, "are always more than we think I hem to bo." It may be possible to lead an absolutely sinless life, it is not often impossible to lead a debt- less one. I 1 Kver Ilitten By a Kill? One night, awhile ago. when T got home from the office, I was intro duced to a new angle on bills the grocer's bill, as I remember it. Mother had the "gone" feeling, and when 1 got in she had the fam ily obligations spread all over the desk. Gee. what a miserable good time we had. Then company came, and I had to chase up to the grocer's for some canned 'peaches medium-sized can. I found the store closed. Poor old fellow had to shut up shop because he couldn't collect the money, due him. I thought a lot that night and tore off the little "obligation" sign I had over one pigeonhole of the desk Next morning I squared up niy debts. I'ii seen what my carelessness had helped do to the grocer. If you like canned peaches don't be careless about paying bills. ..Re member a bill kicks two ways. An unpaid bill may not hurt you very much, but it may hit the chap that RANCHER'S MIND BLANK 18 DAYS Sam Hill, Bend, Comes to Self Herding Sheep on Wagon Tire Mountain HKM), Or.. ,la it. 22.- Kigbte. i; days after his mysterious disappear ance from bis ranch near Kort Hock.
