Fund Mismanagement Increases In 1929 Indianapolis, Dee. 2. —(U.R) —Mismanagement of public funds was greatly increased this year over the year preceding, it was shown today tn the annual report of Lawrence F. Orr, chief examiner of the state board of accounts. Charges against public officials for tlie year ending Oct. 1, totaled $812,9(12.97, as compared to $426,471.10 for 1928, the neport showed. "Some of these charges are of a technical nature and were dismissed after corrections were made,' 1 Orr said. "But the proportion of sustained chargee remains extremely high." Inefficiency. Ignorance are principal reasons for defalcations. Actual recoveries during the fiscal 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 Oldtime enemy, discovered the formula for Olive Tablets while treating patients for chronic constipation and torpid livers. Olive Tablets do not contain calomel, just a healing, soothing vegetable laxative safe and pleasant. No griping is the “keynote” of these little sugar-coated, olive-colored tablets. They help 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, you should find quick, sure and pleasant results from one or two of Dr. Edwards Olive Tablets. Thousands take them every night to keep right. Try them. 15c, 30c, 60c.
