worked in surroundings very different
from the impressive suite of offices
in the Karpen building in Chicago
where he now has the sanctorum, with
several secretaries and clerks be-
tween himself and Interruptions.
But it Is safe to say that any old

HAMILTON. Ill, Aug. 20. me
Hamilton chautauqua was given over
yesterday morning to the Hancock
County Old Settlers association, and
in the afternoon the G. A R. held It's
annual reunion.
Judge Charles J. Scofield, OF Car
thage. was the orator in the morning,
and Ex-Governor Richard Yates, OF
Springfield, spoke in the afternoon.
There was large registration OF
old settlers and of soldiers, among
them many from Keokuk.
The officers elected for the coming
year by the Old Settlers association
were: President, C. NJ. McMillen,
Carthage; vice president, Charles
Grassland, Bowen; secretary, John
A. Gordon, Hamilton.
Judge scofIeld, the Speaker.
Judge Scofield, who Is very popu-
lar in Hancock county, made splen'
did address before the old settlers.
He traced briefly our national history
to prove the point that the American
people are a truly amalgamated ma
ton. He said that this had been true
in times OF stress from the earliest
days. The Catholics Of Maryland,
the Puritans of Massachusetts. the
French and English and Hollanders
who peopled the colonies, came to-
gether as one people after the Boston
tea party.
The strife OF the civil war was not
a difference of nationalities. This
present war, more than any other,
will find at its close an American
people with one ideal, that OF human
| liberty.
Judge Scofield said that in his
work on the exemption board there
was not one man in Hancock county
who avoided registration He SAID
that while some had claimed exemp-
f! ton whose claims were denied, all
these had gone gladly and willingly
to the colors.
He gave a good deal OF local his
tory, all Of which was Of much inter
est to his audience.

Our Army an Army Of Boys.

He said that our army Is made up
of boys, clear-eyed and clean; they
were our babies only yesterday.
When they come back they will be
victorious men. He spoke OF the era
OF sacrifice which still awaits US as
q people. He analysed four or five
battles, particularly the battle of the
Marne and showed how only the in
PREVENTION of God had saved the day.
He said: Never a bullet which
passes through a boy stops there.

sea and finds. its everlasting resting
place in the heart of some woman"

FOR COLDS AND GRIPPE
FOLLOW DOCTORS ADVICE

Ask your physician or druggist and
he will tell you that the first step in
the treatment of a cold, cough, influ-
enza or grippe should invariably he "a
brisk calomel purgative, preferably the
nausealess calomel, called Calotabs.'
This alone is often sufficient to break
short an attack OF grippe and possibly
prevent pneumonia.
One Calotab on the tongue at bed
time with a swallow Of water-that's
all. No salts, no nausea, not the slight
est interference with your eating, pleas
ures or work. Next morning your cold
is purified and refreshed. Calotabs are
sold only in original sealed packages,
price thirty-five cents Recommended
and guaranteed by druggists every
where. Price refunded if you are not
delighted. adv
