It's Easy If You Know Dr. Edwards' Olive Tablets The secret of keeping young is to feel J'oung to do this you must watch your iver and bowels there's no need of having a sallow complexion dark rings under your eyes pimples a bilious look: in your face dull eyes with no sparkle. Your doctor will tell you ninety per rent of all sickness comes from in active bowels and liver. Dr. Edwards, a well-known physician in Ohio, perfected a vegetable com pound mixed with olive oil to act on the liver and bowels, which be gave to his patients for years. Dr. Edwards' Olive Tablets, the substi tute for calomel, are gentle in their action yet always effective. They bring about that exuberance of spirit, that natural buoyancy which should be enjoyed by everyone, by toning up the liver and clear- ng the system ot impurities. 10 'ou will know Dr. Edwards' Olive Tab lets by their olive color. 10c and 25c per box.

And on either side of the picture of these babies are the human brutes who sought to dye the surface of the earth blood red that they might become the most powerful mortals of all time. These two men are the kaiser and the crown prince of (icrniany. These babies were torn from their moth ers' arms when the Hun armies swept over wehliuingly toward the Kngilsh channel last spring and threatened to hurl the British, French and American cause into the abyss of defeat. .The Hun then thought himself upon the threshold of world victory and was drunk with his dream of ooiiiUest.

We know of many gnod-nd sufficient reasons why we should buy Liberty Hoiids. And then we remembered these babies and how their hearts had been torn from their bodies by the Huns.

Our share is financing the war. That means supplying food, ships, munitions and money. Kadi American has a si 1 a re in this. The burden is so large and so important that it must rest upon every American's shoulder. It rests upon your shoulder.

Your dollars are needed so that this kai ser and this crown prince may never hurl their devastating armies through our fields and cities seeking our women to wrong and our babies' hearts to trample'upoii.
