They are the result of Dr. Edwards' determination not to treat liver and bowel complaints with calomel. His efforts to banish it brought out these little olive-colored tablets. These pleasant little tablets do the pood that calomel does, but have no bad after effects. They don't injure the teeth like strong liquids or calomel. They take hold of the trouble and quickly correct it. Why cure the liver at the expense of the teeth? Calomel sometimes plays havoc with the gums. So do strong liquids.

AIID STABBING Woman Thought She Would Die. Cured by Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound Ogdensburjr, Wis. "I suffered from female troubles which caused piercing pains like a kmta through my back and side. 1 finally lost all my strength so I had to go to bed. The doctor advised an operation but I would not listen to it. I thought of what I had read about Lydia E. Pinkham'a Vegetable Compound and tried it. The first bottle brought preat relief and six bottles have entirely cured me. All women who have femala trouble of any kind should try Lydia E. Tinkham's Vegetable Compound." Mrs. Etta Dorion, Ogdensburg, Wis. Physicians undoubtedly did their best, battled with this case steadily and could do no more, but often the most scientific treatment is surpassed by the medicinal properties of the eood old fashioned roots and herbs contained in Lydia E. rmknam s vegetable compound.

As far as it poes, it is as pood as any reserve army in the world, and is in readiness to fipht fcr the nation's rights and honor. But it doesn't gro very far. While the reserve armies of some of the other big nations count into the millions, Uncle Sam's reserves could easily be seated around one table at the same time and not feel crowded.

That is, for every dollar spent by the Central powers, two dollars were b ing paid out by the Kr.tente group. The above table of war expenditures Is closely in accord with that phase of the German minister's remarks. put comparison of present-day expenditures for war purposes of the contending powers is, to a considerable extent, misleading.
