FOR COLDS AND GRIPPE DOCTORS
FIND REMEDY.

Physicians and druggists are elated
over the fact that they have at last
found a genuine and dependable rem
edy for colds, sore throat, influenza
and la grippe. For years they have
depended chiefly upon the old style
calomel, which is certainly fine, but
unfortunately many peope would not
take it because of it's nauseating and
dangerous qualities.
Now that the pharmaceutical
chemists have perfected nausealess
calomel, called "Calotabs' whose
medicinal virtues are vastly improv-
ed, the doctors and druggists are
claiming that Calotabs are the ideal
remedy to abort a cold over night
cut short an attack of sore throat
or la grippe. They are also finding
it most effective as the first step in
the treatment of pneumonia.
One Calotab on the tongue at bed
time with a swallow of water-that's
all. No salts, no nausea nor the
slightest interference with your eat
ing or your work and pleasure. The
next morning your cold has vanished
and your whole system is purified and
refreshed. Calotabs are sold only in
original sealed packages; price thir-
ty-five cents. Your druggist recon-
mends and guarantees them by re-
funding the price If you are not de-
lighted.
