-better vegetables “After applying Vigoro,” writes Ad Hennig, of Neenah, Wisconsin. “I had tomatoes three weeks earlier than the year before. They were of a better quality, more delicious, and uniform in size. “The same success was evident with the rest of my vegetables.” Vigoro is the ideal plant food for lawns, flowers, gardens, shrubbery and trees. It is easy to apply; results are quick and certain. Clean, dustless, weedless, and odorlea»! Vigoro is not to be compared with any other plant food you have ever known. It isn’t at all costly.

QUICK RELIEF FROM CONSTIPATION That is the joyful cry of thousands since Dr. Edwards produced Olive Tablets, the substitute for calomel. Dr. Edwards, a practicing physician for 20 years and calomel’s old-time enemy, discovered the formula for Olive Tablets while treating patients for chronic constipation ana torpid livers. Olive Tablets do not contain calomel, just a healing, soothing vegetable laxative mixed with olive oil. No griping is the “keynote” of these little sugar-coated, olive-colored tablets. They cause the bowels and liver to act normally. They never force them to unnatural action. If you have a “dark brown mouth’’— bad breath—a dull, tired feeling—sick headache — torpid liver—constipation, I you’ll find quick, sure and pleasant results from one or two of Dr. Edwards’ Olive Tablets ar bedtime. Thousands take them every night to keep right. Try them. 15c, 30c, 60c.
