WASHINGTON, Oct. 29.—Probably no other man who has not been presi dent has held such absolute and ar bitrary power either in peace or war times as that held by Herbert Hoover, republican food dictator in a demo- ratic administration.

The taste and appearance are especially important when children are concerned. All parents know how hard it is to give thc average child “medicine,” even though the taste is partially dis guised. In using Dr. Milos’ Lax ative Tablets, however, this dilti- t :!ty is overcome. The shape of thc tablets, their appearance and candy-likc taste at once appeal to any child, with the result that they are taken without ohjeclion. The rich chocolate flavor anti absence of other taste, make I Jr. Miles’ Laxative Tablets the ideal remedy for children. • If the first box fails to benefit, the price is returned. Ask you: druggist.
