WHY DO ALL DOCTORS
PRESCRIBE CAlOMEL

Of all the medicines in the world,
doctors prescribe calomel most often
and depend upon it most universally.
There must be a good and sufficient
reason-what is it?
If you will study the doctoAs books
you will find that the medical authorl-
tesFprescribe calomel for almost every
disease. The reason is that calomeI
is the greatest and only thorough sys-
tenn purifier. It makes the liver ac-
tive, drives out the poisons from the
stomach, bowels and kidenys and
thereby purifies the blood. Calomel
puts the entire system m the most
favorable condition for nature 10 ex-
'eroise her recuperative power. Your
doctor will tell you that drugs mere
ly assist nature That is why he pre-
scribes calomel so often.
The kind of calemel called "Calo-
tabs" is refined and purified from
all of the nauseating and dangerous
qualities OF the old style caloplel 10
rapidly taking it's place, for it is more
effective than the old style calomei
as a liver-cleanser and system purltler'
One calotab at bed time, with a swat
low of water-that's all. No Hau-
sea, nor the slightest unpleasaRtnesS'
Next morning you awake feeling
fne-with a hearty appetite 1of
breakfast Eat what you please
fruits, acids or anything. No reStrlc-
tions of habit or diet
Calotabs are sold only in original
sealed packages, price thirty-fiVe
cents. Recommended and guaran-
teed by druggists everywhere. Your
money back if you are not delighted

A CARD FROM MR.. MOSS
Marietta, Ga, Sept. 4, 1913

Marietta, Ga, Sept. 4, 1918
Editor Marietta JournaE
Dear SIR
| For the information of the voters
and people of this county wish Won
to publish the following:
As heretofore stated by me | bavo
not been able to see all the voters
personally nor will have an opnor-
tunity between this time and the cleo
tion on the 18th inst, but it NAV ba
of interest to them to know that am
not allied with either of the old fight
ing factions in Cobb County and the
Blue Ridge Circuit, but am running
my race for the legislature upon NV
own merits.
If man runs iii one of these fac
tions he belongs to it after he is ell
ected and is not free to do what ha
thinks is best in the legislature. fl
am elected it will be by my voters and
not as a side issue to some other mans
race; then | will feel that they have
elected me.
When any local bill comes up that
affects this County or any town in It
| shall have it set before a committee
and invite everybody interested to
come down and say what he likes for
d. against the bill. I shall not sir
any bill through the legislature.
There is measure being agitated
now by the larger cities of the State
to Interfere with the hire of the W.
& A. Railroad which goes entirely to
the support fthe common schools.
This measure should be watched and
any effort to divert the earnings of
this property and the poll tax from
the support of the common schools
should be smashed at once, and it will
be my pleasure to help do so.
The common schools; humble as
they may appear, are the life blood of
the country. Thousands of children
could never read or write their names
but for the common free schools.
These schools, the chronological
school and the Georgia Normal and
Industrial School should be supported
by all means. They are doing more
good than all other institutions of
the State combined.
Another matter of vital importance
to the taxpayers should have atten-
ton. The Mansion property on
Peachtree Street in Atlanta is worth
about a half millioh dellars.
Designing traders have gotten up
scheme to swap this property off as
unsuited for the Governors mansion.
If sold the money, under the law,
would have to be applied to the
States indebtedness, but they don't
want that; they want to swap the
State something cheap and then make
ths difference by selling thispreperty
for what it is worth and pocket the
profit. broke this deal up once and
if am Oleosed l will give it my atten-
ton again in the same direction.
am making no fight against any
other man in the racial | ask of
the voters is that be one of the two.
They are all good men and l should
be satisfied to have any one of them
as my co-representative, but feel
that on account of my experience l
am in position to so act as that the
people will not regret having elected
mes Respectfully,
H. B. MOSS.

Jewish Welfare Board Makes
Urgent Appeal for Worker;

The Jewish welfare board has issued
an urgent appeal for one hundred men
for field work with the army overseas
and two hundred for service In camps
and naval training stations in the
United States.
This Is a call to the highest patri-
otic service" declared Col. Harry Cut
Ter. chairman of The Jewish welfare
board. Overseas workers are partic-
uIarly needed. DIR. john r.. Mott, gen.
eral secretary of the Y. NJ. G. A. Col.
William s. Barker. overseas field d.
rector of the Salvation Army, and rep
resentatives OF the other war-work or
CARNATIONS with which we are CO.
operating. have emphasized this need
for Jewish workers. There are o
$4,000 Jews serving in the army n
navy, and under the new drafts this
number will be increased to zoe, eOO.
IF hostiIIties should end in the
near future the need for field workers
will be increased for many months to
come. Even after the complicated Ia
ternational rc-adjustments have been
made. 1t will take at least a year and
a half to get the army home and de-
modified. n this difficult period viii
be the acid test of the val welfare
agencies.
We must have men of the highest
type who al act as parents, leaders
and comrades for our boys. Men for
overseas work must be over thirty
seven years. and for domestic service
they must be in the third draft classi-
f1cation. preferably above thirty. APP
pIioation should be made to the Jewish

mental impossibility for me to answer
that number. especially when one 10
as poor as / am in the art of pen push
