Doctors Say Calotabs
Are Best For Colds

According to the worlds greatest
physicians and medical experts, calo-
mel is the best and only dependable
remedy for breaking up a cold over
night or cutting short an attack of
sore throat, deep-seated cough, in
fluenza or la grippe. Now that
science has purified calomel of all its
nausea and dangerous qualities, the
new kind of Calomel, called "Calo-
tabs" is even more popular than the
old style.
One Calotab on the tongue at bed
time with swallow of water,-that's
all. No salts, no nausea nor the
slightest interference with your diet,
work or pleasures. Next morning
your cold has vanished and your
whole system is purified and refresh
ed. Calotabs are sold only in orig
inal sealed packages, price thirty-fve
cents. Your druggist recommends
and guarantees Calotabs and will re-
fund the price if you are not delight
ed with them.-Adv

MR.. HOLLANDS REQUEST.

l would appreciate it very much if
the patrons of the independent Tel
ephone Co. would be charitable
enough to exercise little patience
in calling central. We have been
crippled badly by the influenza cpl
demic, and have been forced to get
new help-young ladies not familiar
with the board. For this reason, we
have been unable to render the ser
vice we would desire. We kindly ask,
that the public exercise all
patience possible in calling central,
and curtail your calls as much as pos
sible until the situation is relieved
BY so doing you will greatly oblige,
Yours sincerely,
H. E. HOLLAND.

Homecoming Now
Depends On Ships

Before Gen. March's announce
ment, Secretary Baker had discussed
with newspaper correspondents the re.
turn Of American troops from France
Their homeward movement, he said,
is dependent almost entirely upon the
limitation of transportation facili-
ties, both at sea and in France.
Besides employing in this work the
German liners seized in this country,
Dutch vessels taken over and all 9th
er available transports, Mr.. Baker
said some part of the British trans
port tonnage employed in carrying
troops to France will continue to be
used in getting the men home. He
pointed out, however, that Great
Britain will need many of her ships
to carry home Canadian, Australian,
New Zealand and other colonial for
ces which have been in France longer
q,
than the American armies.

BAILEYTON.

Uncle Jacob Limbaugh died early
Saturday morning at an advanced
age. He had been very sick the past
few months, but had enjoyed good
health until the last few years of his
life. Many Of our citizens have been
helped in many ways by "Uncle Jake"
as we all called him, and no one can
say that he had ever done them any
harm. He was buried at Zion Satur-
day afternoon. He had lived among
us so long that we will all miss him
so much.
Mrs. Jake Smith has been very sick
the past week.
Well, the "flu" has arrived here at
last and we could not mention all
their names. DR.. G. N. Bailey was

Saturday and DR.. Ed LETTERS is busy
day and night seeing the sick. Whole
families are confined with it, but we
are glad that no one has died with
| it up to the present time.
Miss Myrtle Kite left last week
for Nebraska, where she will attend
business college this winter.
Walter Everhart, who has been in

TUsCULUM NOTES

Things have been quiet at the col
lege for the past two weeks. All our
students who have been sick are inn
proving and some are entirely re-
covered School work will begin in
all departments Of the college Mon
day. We are hoping that all may be
able to be in their places by that time
and that nothing may interrupt OF
further hinder the progress of the
years work.
Miss Mamie Christian Johnson, of
the department Of English, and Miss
Selby, of the department Of Modern
Languages, will return this week and
be ready for their classes.
Professor and Mrs. Grannis are
able to be out again after a week or
ten days off.
All the mebers of the faculty are
ready for work.
Dr. Gray mas postponed ms trip TO
Washington until next week.
Professor McConagha, of the de-
partment Of Bible, will preach the
annual Thanksgiving sermon at Glen
wood high school tomorrow at 1920,
after which he will attend the annual
conference of United Presbyterian
Mountain Teachers at Camp Creek
high school, at which place he will de-
liver the Thanksgiving address in the
evening.
Mack Woody had the misfortune of
overturning his Ford yesterday near
Mrs. Hattie Doak's residence, but lit
tie damage was done.
Fred Haynes, who has been i'll for
a number of days with pneumonia, is
almost able to be out again.
The Kellys and the Woodys are
having their turn with the "flu."
Mrs. Wagner, of south of Greene
vile, is with Mr.. and Mrs. Garfield
Kelly and family.
Though we have met with some in
conveniences, the stroke has not been
heavy and now that Thanksgiving day
is here, let us enter into its larger
meaning for 1918. May it not be
possible that the sickness was sent
among us this year to test our boast
ed willingness to sacrifice for our
neighbor. If we are inclined to shut
up our tender sympathies from those
about us who are suffering and in
need surely the love of God does not
dwell very deeply in us. May the OPP
posite be true. R. A. Nice.

World Heavy With Sorrow.

The world in which we are living
our lives, and in which we will con-
tinue to live, is a world heavy with
sorrow and sadness. The war has
wrought a ruin which will take many
years to repair. Those of us who are
alive will never see the end of this
great task. SO there Is a clear task
before us. We must help those who
have been hurt and broken, and COM
fort those who have been made sor-
rowful. Just because the task is so
big it challenges us to do our best,
to stop playing at being Christians,
and to strive with all our might and
power to do our best.

To be possessed of a head Of heavy
beautiful hair; soft, lustrous, fluffy,
wavy and free from dandruff is mere
ly a matter of using little Dander-
inc.
1t is easy and inexpensive to have
nice, soft hair and lots Of it. Just
get a small bottle bottle Of Knowl-
tons Danderine now-it costs but a
few cents--all drug stores recon-
mend it-apply little as directed
and within ten minutes there will be
an appearance of abundance, fresh
ness, fufiness and an Incompatible
gloss and lustre, and try as you will
you cannot find trace Of dandruff
of falling hair; but your real surprise
will be after about two weeks use,
when you will see new hair--fne and
downy at first--yes--but really new
hair-sprouting out all over your
scalp-Danderine is, we believe, the
only sure hair grower, destroyer of
dandruff and cure for itchy scalp, and
it never fails to stop falling hair at
once.
If you want to prove how pretty
and soft your hair really is, moisten
a cloth with a little Danderine and
carefully draw it through your hair
taking one small strand at time.
Your hair will be soft, glossy and
beautiful in just a few moments
delightful surprise awaits everyone
who tries this.

The Bath Habit.

In the eighteenth century the bath
was seasons event, and soap was al
most thing unknown. 1t was scarce
ly ever used, or at least infreQuently.
It was by no means indispensable as
toilet necessity. And most Of us
can recall the time, muses. an ex-
change, when Saturday night was re-
ligiously dedicated to the weekly
bath. That is why we all appreci-
ate the story of the woman who wrote
her friend: "We just moved into a
new apartment, 1t has the cutest
bathtub. I can hardly wait until Sat-
urday night"
