QUICK RELIEF FROM
CONSTIPATION
That is the joyful cry of thousands
since Dr. Edwards produced Olive
Tablets, the substitute for calomel.
Dr. Edwards, a practicing physi
cian for 20 years, and calomel's old
time enemy, discovered the formula
for Olive Tablets while treating pa
tients for chronic constipation and
torpid livers.
Olive Tablets dp not contain calo
mel; just a healing, southing vegeta
ble laxative, safe and pleasant.
No -griping is the "keynote" of these
little sugar-coated, olive-colored tab
lets. They help cause the bowels and
liver to act normally. They never
force them to unnatural action.
If you have a ‘‘dark brown mouth”
—bad breath—a dull, tired feeling—
sick headache—torpid liver—consti
pation, you should find quick, sure
and pleasant results from one or two
Of Dr. Edwards Olive Tablets.
Thousands take them every night
to keep right. Try them, 15c. 30c, 60c.
Testimonies from all parts
of the world prove the

LOUISIANA PRIMARY
—-—
Democrats Go to Polls Today
1 to Name Successor to Gov.
I
Huey P. Long.
! " ’
i By the Associated Press.
NEW ORLEANS, La., January 19.—
I The friends and enemies of Gov. Huey i
P. Long said it with votes in Louis
| iana's Democratic primary today.
There was one clean-cut issue and
that was whether he would turn over
to his proponents or opponents the
reins of the State government that he
I will relinquish when he leaves to take
his seat in the United States Senate i
this Spring.
Five men sought to succeed Gov.
Long. Democratic nomination in
Louisiana virtually assures election.
From its beginning, the campaign
has been O. K. Allen, chairman of the
State Highway Commissiorf; for Gov
ernor, ahd a complete slate of long
indorsed candidates, "against the i
field." |
Gov. Long Is Issue.
Long made himself the issue by put
ting out the slate and stumping the
State from end to end with a plea that
his friends be elected “to complete the
work" started by his administration.
Against the Long-Alien ticket, which
has the indorsement of the New Orleans
j old regular organization, which sought j
I Long’s impeachment in 1929, George j
1 Seth Guion, New Orleans attorney, and
j Dudley J. Leblanc, French-Acadian
member of the Public Service Commis
sion. have waged the most strenuous
campaigns in their bids for the gov
ernorship. Both have been bitter in
condemnation of “Longism.”
Two others. State Senator William C.
Boone and 'William L. Clark, jr„ New
Orleans business man, are offering
themselves for the chief executive's
chair, but have not made active cam
paigns.
Street Fight Fatal.
Preprimary excitement has been prin
cipally confined to verbal fireworks and
numerous registration and poll-tax in
vestigations launched by the anti-Long
faction, but feeling over the election re
sulted in a street shooting and one
death at Hammond, La„ last night, po
lice there said.
The list of primary candidates in
cludes Earl Long, brother of the Gov
ernor, offering himself for lieutenant
governor on a straight anti-administra
tion platform which he has expounded
along with bitter criticism of his
brother.

“Love Is All”
Laboring at the National.
AT the moment “Love Is All,”
or “Smilin’ Through,” Is not
a satisfactory musicale. As
displayed last night at the
National Theater it clarified a
new meaning to the legend that when
Jane Cowl first saw it high up in a
P h 11 a delphia
Ada-May.
balcony she
burst Into
tears. Although
the present
version has a
score of rich
pattern and
melodious tex
ture (particu
larly in the
second-act se
quence, to
which Deems
“Peter Ibbet
son” Taylor
has loaned his
talents), the
book is, for the
nonce, too mild
a hodge-podge
to encourage either reverence or ex
citement
Mr Youman's music, as a matter
of fact, is by far the best of the
pudding—and as conducted last
night with great skill by Dr. Hugo
Riesenfeld (the erstwhile maestro
at New York's Rivoli Theater) it
was a joy to the ear. By sitting
back and closing one’s eyes there
was considerable enjoyment to be
had. and the fact that Michael
Bartlett, with a voice of operatic
quality, was intrusted with some of
the topnotch music was a great as
set. as also Miss Rivera in her “I’ll
Come Back to You’’ number at the
end of the first act.
Unfortunately, however, a mere
flow of music does not make an eve
ning’s entertainment in this day i
and age. While little more than a
story full of whimsy and sweet
smelling lilacs was to be ex
pected from the book of Miss
Cowl’s great stage success, it was
also to be expected that if this was
rewarmed and served up on a mu
sical comedy platter it would be
bursting with added vim and
vigor. For the vim the sponsors
have dragged in Ada-May pretty
much by the heels, and for the
vigor they have waited until the
last part of the last act to in
clude a rousing song, ‘’Drums in
My Heart,” which is sung be
cause there isn’t anything much
else to do. If now this and Nick
Long's gangling dance number and
one or two other things had
been presented earlier, the evening
might have been saved. But as it
is, after a long and curiously inef
fective first act—clumsy beyond be
lief—yawning time is begun much
nearer dinner than otherwise.
Included among the bright spots
of the evening, however, are Charles
Winninger’s display of Victorian B.
V. D.’s, Mr. Winninger's cornet
crashing through a window, Greg
ory Gaye singing “Drums in My
Heart” ’ Michael Bartlett sing
ing anything with a grand voice and
one made too little use of in the
play anu the interpretation of the
musical script as presented, by Dr.
Riesenfeld.
The cast, which has been juggled
until it is almost past recognition,
last night had Lelane Rivera re
placing Norma Terris—Miss Terris
was to be observed in the audience
—and. Reginald Owen in the role
first filled by Tom Pow'ers. The
latter apart from a bit of overacting
in the first scene, was excellent.
The scenery is pleasant, the
dances not by any means inspira
tional—and the book—well—the
music is excellent—shut your eyes
and listen to it.

HIGHTOWER GIVEN
FORMAL SENTENCE
Committed, With Jones, to
Life Imprisonment—New
Trial Pleas Fail.
By the Associated Press.
MOLNT STERLING, Ky„ January
19— Motions for new trials for William
Hightower and William B. Jones, Har
lan County mine union leaders, were
overruled by Circuit Judge Henry R.
Prewitt here yesterday and they were
formally sentenced to life imprisonment.
Counsel announced the cases would be
carried at once to the Kentucky Court
of Appeals.
Jones, secretary of the local union
in Harlan County, and Hightower, its
president, were convicted of murder
conspiracy as a result of a clash during
last year's strike, in which four men
were shot to death at Evarts. Two
deputy sheriffs, a mine clerk and a
striking miner were killed and the Com
monwealth claimed Hightower, Jones
i and others had conspired to kill depu
ties and mine guards in furtherance of
the strike.
Jones Makes Statement.
Judge Prewitt reviewed the trials at
length when the motions were made
today. Then asked Jones who was con
victed December 10 if he had anything
to say w'hy sentence should not be pro
nounced. Jones replied:
"This is the first time in the annals
of American history that a man has
ever been convicted and sentenced to
life imprisonment for being patriotic
and trying to get the people to obey
the law.”
"I naturally feel sorry for anybody
that gets sentenced to prison,” replied
the judge. “I did my best to give you
a fair trial.”
Judge Prewitt then passed sentence,
and, turning to Hightower, who was

Appreciation of the response which
met an appeal for funds recently made
through The Star with which to pur
chase a talking moving picture machine
for the unfortunates of the Home for
the Incurables were expressed today by
Mrs. Arcibold Hopkins, president of the

"We are deeply grateful for the sum

Mrs. Hopkins.
Mrs. Hopkins added, howevw, that
she hoped friends of the crippled and
