EVER Young Women Are Mystery, Edison Says FORT MYERS, Fla, Feb. 12, — Young men take no advice and the young women are a mystery, was Thomas Edison's birthday decision yesterday when he observed his 78th anniversary and he sagely refrained from offering either advice to men or a solution to the mystery of the young women. Mr. Edison, questioned during his annual birthday interview was brief but. emphatic in his answers concern- ing the younger generation. They are showing no improvement in man- ners, he sald, expressing the belief also that American educational standards have shown no improye- ment since the issuance of his ques- tionnaire several years ago which proved sucha nighmare to appli- cants fof places in his establishment. He expressed himself emphatical/ ly in favor of the world:court, urg- ing that “it have something behind it to enforce its decrees.” Otherwise it er be useless, he felt. Mr. Coolidge is an ideal presidnt, h sald, expressing the hope that the third party ts dead. PARTNER OF WHEELER ON THE STAND WASHINGTON, Feb. 12.—James H.

Those who develop cold are taken off the shift. The feature of the rescue effort which worries the officials most is that only three men at a time can work in the bottom of the shaft, while if conditions would permit, scores would be willing to work un- ceasingly. The shifts have been cut to one-half hour, so that fresh men can keep the effort up to the .top- most speed consistent with safety of the shaft walls. Carmichael today prepared the rope slings which will be fastened around the diggers’ shoulders soon to prevent them from falling into the cavern, should the bottom of the shaft give way. The diamond point drill was prepared again for further explorations into the lmestone at different places in the bottom of the shaft, in the hope of locating some tunnel or cavern., . uely the drill had indicated a spot at 46 feet of about five feet depth, and the drill will be tried at other corners of the shaft. “There s a great possibility that any minute We may strike a cavern leading to Collins,” said Carmichael. ‘On the other hand we may find it necessary to go 65 feet. If we go that far without penetrating a chan- nel, we will begin tunneling in search of Collins, because that is the maxt- mum estimate of the depth of his prison chamber. I have been hoping since Tuesday to strike lmestong T can make no definite estimate or statement when Collins will be ex treated other than that & expect to accomplish the work by Sunday. STEADY PROGRESS MADE BY SHIFT WORK. CAVE CITY, Ky., Feb, 12.—(By The Associated Press.\—Inch by inch the shaft at Sand Cave {s de- scending toward Floyd Collins and the final shovelful of dirt that may reveal him or a tunnel leading to him, {s expected any time. Bach crew entering the shaft ts hopeful of being the one to sight him, but engineers say {t is impos- sible to tell when this will come. A‘iown draft in the shaft, similar to the current of air down the original Sand Cave tunnel gave the workers hope tliat some crevice was near which would open into Collins’ cavern. A few feet farther on, as shown by the diamond drill, the bhaft will strike a Mmestone layer about five feet thick, and beneath that ie a “soft spot,” indicating either muck or soft dirt in what was once a tunnel. “It may be an hour,or tt may be a da: one of the workers said to- day, “but we are nearing the end." Meanwhile, the state niilitary board continued its inquiry, hearing ten witnesses yesterday describing the early efforts’at rescue and fhe rumors current a week ago Dr, H. F. Honaker, of Horse Cave, id he heard persons in Cave City wy they doubted if Collins was in the cave, before any stories about that were printed. “I have heard some men say,” Dr, Honaker said, “that they didn’t believe he was in there, but that did not change my opinion.” One of the objects of Governor Fields in obtaining the military board's investigation, was to clear away rumors of doubt that Collins was in the cave. A telegram from Mayor B. W. Shearburn, of Haddam, Kanas,, that a man asserting he was Floyd Collins, had appeared there, was denounced here. Brig. Generai Denhart, head of the investigation, sald he would not even reply to it and that the only thing about it which interested him was tho tele- stam that came “collect” and would cost him $3.80. The description of the man from Haddam does not tally with Fle Collin LIVESTOCK Chicago Prices. CHICAGO, Feb. 12.{U. 8.

These littleolive- colored 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 strong liquids or calomel. They take hold of the trouble and quickly correc! it. Why cure the liver at the expense of the teeth? Calomel sometimes plays parce with the gums. So do stron; liquids. It i3 best not to take calomel Let Dr. Edwards’ Olive Tablets take its place. Headaches, “dullness” and that lazy ey come from constipation and a isordered liver.
