NEW CALOMEL IS
MOST DELIGHTFUL
NOT THE SLIGHTEST NAUSEA,
GRIPPING OR DANGER-NEW VA.
RIETY CALLED CALOTARS.

Every dosstor regards calomel as the
best and by far the most useful of all
medicines. Now that its unpleasant
and dangerous qualities have been en-
tirely removed, the new calomel known
as "Calotabs" is destined to become the
most popular. It's effects are delight
full. One Calotab at bedtime, with a
swallow Of water-that's all. No nau-
sea, no gripping nor unpleasantness.
You wake up in the morning, feeling
fiue your liver cleansed, your system
purified, and with a hearty appetite
for breakfast. Eat what you please, go
where you please, any kind of weather.
No restriction of habit or diet.
Calot&bs are sold only in original,
sealed packages, price thirty-five cents.
Your druggist recommends and
guarantees Calotabs. Money back if
you are not delighted. adv

GIVE THEM A CHANCE!

What about the men in prisons, fol
use as fighting material?
In the jails and penitentiaries of the
United States serving sentences tha
range from one month to life terms
there are over 100000 men, most o.
them able-bodied. Most of them, too
are patriotic, and would gladly risl
their lives for their country's sake.
France took advantage of the me-
in her prisons who were willing to gC
to the front in defense of their ma
ton and sent them on in battalions
There has been very little published
concerning their achievements. How
ever, the Paris edition of New Yorl
paper has praised their efforts.
Writing to the New York World, :
prisoner on Blackwell's Island says;
Let me tell you that many
prisoners heart aches when he
reads of the crimes that the
Kaiser and his wolves are COM
hitting day after day. 1t is won
der to me that half of us are not
driven insane by being behind
iron bars and not being able to
raise a hand in defense of our
country and our friends over there.
We may have committed crimes r
against the state, but there are
many of us that will gladly give
our unfortunate lives for our
country. For let me tell you that
there are as brave and as true
hearts behind those prison bars
as ever lived, and if but given the
chance they would not disgrace
the flag, but be an honor to it. We
have mothers, sisters and wives
that need protection and it is no
more than right that we beg for
the chance to protect them from
the cruelest and most depraved
nation on earth. There may be
some that will say that we are not
fit to wear the uniform of the
American soldier; but if that be
true, then put us to the test in our
prison uniforms, and then, if we
fail, why, place us against the wall
and shoot us as traitors.
If the time comes when the coun.
try is sorely pressed for men witt
which to put in battle against the
Huns, it would be entirely feasible and
proper for a selective draft system tl
be instituted among the jails and pris-
ons. There are many serving time
for crimes not especially involving
moral turpitude who would make ex-
cellent soldiers and who would b6
glad and proud of chance to fight or
Gle in their nations behalf The prop
ogition is an interesting one and may
eventually be presented for urgent con-
sideration.
