Dr, BEdwards’ Olive Tableta, the substi- tute for calomel, aot gently on the bowels and positively do the work. but firmly on the bowels and liver, stimu. lating them to natural action, clearing the blood and gently purifying the entire sys- tem, They do that which dangerous calomel does without any of the bad after effects. All the benefits of nasty, sickening, griping cathartics are derived from Dr. Bdwards’ Olive Tablets without griping, pain or disagreeable effects of any kind. Dr. F. M. Bdwards discovered the for- mula after sevehteen years of practice among patients afflicted with bowel and liver complaint with the attendent bad breath. Dr. Edwards' Olive Tablets are purely & vegotable compound mixed with olfve oll; you will know them by their olive color.

And Now What Is a Mhelliah? On Ellan Vannin (with its green hills by the sea), théy have a custom or a festival known as the-Mhelliah ~—After thé summer is past and the harvest is ended they hold a sort of harvest-home, Originally they gathered in the fields after the grain was harvested and engaged themselves eating and drinking—their drink was called jough-—a sort of mild home brewed ale. Later they gathered in the barns and sat up to tables welghted down with the fullness of the earth and feasted to their heart’s content, Afterwards tables were cleared and to the music of the fiddle—the concertina—the Jews' harp, etc., danced till' break of day and sometimes kept it up all the next day. This then is what Mhelllah means, sort of of our Iving, isn't 1t? Never in the history of this nation was there such reason for a Thanksgiving as this year. ‘The Cobbs have prepared wonderful good things for you., Let quote a little list. First, for the hostess, a box of o:f.w. Oandy, That wiil give you the proper entree as it were, 80 to speak. High grade Chocolates and Bon Bons, §0¢ the box.

And we don’t know of any finer, And then the Plum Puddings. Do you remember how 2 or 8 months before the eating time, moth: to make the Plum Pudding? In our boyhood day: it was made they used to hang it up on the celling near the open fire—and somehow or other, few puddings taste as mother's did. Try Cobb's this year all ye doubting Thomases, who dream of the past good things—ricn with fresh fruits and ralsin . You can have a stick in the sauce if you like— this is Cobb's, ICE CREAMS-—What novelties; no place like Amer- ica for dainty concelts of every kind.

The other day a very delightful gentleman stopped at our desk to tell us about ASURERETURN method of advertising. He was a good talker—exceedingly gentlemanly—and we were almost ready to capitu- late and say ‘‘Almost thou persuadest me,”’ when he said{ ‘‘Now Cobbs would be a splendid thing for you to tr y this method on. Do you know,’’ said he, ‘‘I never knew you had a Candy department before.’’ Now, he had QOne Green Cloth Suit, $62.50 instead of $80.00. 8 Buits, $59.50 instead of $75.00. 8 Models, were $69.50, for R (N 6 Clever Garments, were J;_)Eo.75 12 Very Genteel Suits, were $65.00.

HAT SALE Extraordinary We read a monograph the other day written by Oscar Wilde in which he bewailed ‘‘THE DE. CAY OF LYING''—Now Oscar has been gone to the great beyond these several years. If he were living today his regrets would be greater, for there is a change—A VERY DECIDED OHANGE —and we hope we may be pardoned if we claim some of the credit. We have tried always to keep within the limit of truth and to- day we have to confess that we are curbing our- selves—limiting our adjectives—for if we were to convey nothing but the simple unvarnished truth about the next item—some who do not know us, might accuse us of EXAGGERATION. LISTEN—Our connection is very close with one of the BIGGEST MILLINERY MEN IN AMERICA. He shipped us a lot of HATS A FEW DAYS AGO and wired us: ‘‘I have ship- ped you hats worth at retail from $7.50 to $30.00. Sell them at— 35 AND YOU'LL SET THE LADIES WILD."” We waited till the hats arrived and found our friend was easily within the limits of truth. Marvelous as some of our Hat Sales have been —wonderful as the Values have been, we never presented such an attractive lot. Hats of all kinds—besutiful plumes worth three times the price asked—Plush — Velvets visited us several times, we have advertised Cobb considerably, were ready to exclaim: ‘‘What in Sam Hill’s the use, if people don’t read ads and won’t use their eyes. haps we better put a brake on our phraseology or we’ll be accused of trail- ing—THE PUZZLE IS AFTER ALL TO GET YOU TO READ THOMAS KILPATRICK AND C0.’S MHELLIAH IS NOW ON.

Every reason why we should have a Mhelliah. When the poet wrote: ‘‘Better fifty years of Europe than a cycle of Cathay,’”’ or words to that effect, he did not vision the Europe of to- day. Perhaps after all, the people of Cathay are happier than their white brother.
