OLD BOWERY MISSION, HAVEN OF DRUNKARDS, FINDS BUSINESS DULL
(By Associated Press) NEW YORK, Nov. 22. At the old Bowery Mission, for more than four decades the leading lower East Side haven for destitute drunkards, lecture classes In elementary sociology and philosophy and - educational work among the ghetto's women and children are taking the place of or supplementing the work done there heretofore for men without homes or food. "Flops and eattf as shelter and food are referred to by the old time denizens of the Bowery are no longer to be the chief solace afforded to "hop heads" and "bums" by this famous old Institution. Directors of the famous place have acknowledged time for more than feeding and sheltering from night to night a horde of "floaters" and "boes." Since its establishment 41 years ago Bowery Mission workers have been rushed with seemingless efforts to find food and. Bleeping room for long lines of those classed as down and out. Now, they say, the advent of prohibition' has brought opportunity to lift their heads. Outlines Situation. John G. Hallimond, Mission superintendent, and Anson C. Baker, secretary, outlined the new situation. "There's still plenty of 'hootch' on the Bowery," they said, "and plenty of drinkers to care for. "But It's harder to get than it used to be. "We have almost as many men to look after as ever. When the saloon went it did not take with it drugs and the like. But a far greater percentage of them are sober, clear-eyed and clearbrained. We are increasing our educational work among the old timers whose heads used to be so steeped In liquor that they could retain nothing but the address of the Mission. - "We now have more opportunity to look around, a chance for educational work among women and to start at the bottom with the rising generation." Bum Business Dead. Sixty-year old "Christian John" Wentz, a follower of the Mission for half his life and still hanging on, added hi3 word to that of Mr. Hallimond and Mr. Baker. "The bum business is dead," he said. "But if a guy had told me ten years ago that the day would come when there wasn't enough boes and cokies on the Bowery to keep this place busy, and that the Mission would decide to go to taking care of women and children, I'd have said he'd been 'coking himself or hitting the pipe."

8EITO THAN CALOMEL Thousands Have Discovered Dr. Edwards' Olive Tablets are a Harmless Substitute Dr. Edwards' Olive Tablets the substitute for calomel are a mild but sure laxative, and their effect on the liver is almost instantaneous. These little olivecolored tablets are the result of Dr. Edwards' determination not to treat liver and bowel complaints with calomel. The pleasant little tablets do the good that calomel does, but have no bad after effects. They don't injure the teeth like 6trong 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. It is best not to take calomel. Let Dr. Edwards' Olive Tablets take its place. Headaches, "dullness" and that lazy feeling come from constipation and a disordered liver. Take Dr. Edwards Olive Tablets when you feel "logy" and "heavy." They "clear" clouded braia and "perk up" the spirits, i5C ani 30c

Mothers Who Worry Shduld Read This Letter It Proves ThatVinol Will Build Up Frail, Ailing Children. Mrs. L. Andrews, Bainbridge, N. Y., says: "My little daughter was rundown, tired all the time, pale, thin and nervous, and had headaches so we had to take her out of school.. Vinol has bulit her up, she has a good appetite, no more headaches, her color is
good and sho has returned to school."
Vinol owes its success in such cases to the tissue-building extractives of fresh cods' livers, without oil, aided by the blood and strength-creating elements of tonic iron, beef peptones and glycerosphophates which it contains. Thus in a natural manner it creates a healthy appetite, aids digestion, makes rich, red blood and the result is a good healthy color, strength and vitality. Advertisement.
