ASK any physician or druggist and
he will tell you that the best and only
effective remedy for bad cold, sore
throat, influenza or la grippe is what
he calls "a brisk calomel purge"
which means a big dose of calomcl
at bed time But ms the old style cal
omel has some very unpleasant and
dangerous qualities physicians and
druggists are now recommending the
improved nHusealess calomel. called
"Calotabs" which is purified and re-
fined from the sickening and danger
Gus effects ard whose medicinal vir-
tues are vastly improved
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 diet,
pleasures or work. Next morning
your cold has vanished and your en-
tire system is purified and refreshed.
Calotabs are sold only in original
sealed packages, price thirty-fve
cents. Your druggist guarantees Cal
otabs by refunding the price if you
are not delighted.

This picture has created a furure

crowded and admir1ng audiences in
some of the largest cities of the coun-
try. 1t has been hailed with delight
and admiration everywhere and it is
safe to predict that a large audience

To the Editor of the Clarion:
/ have Just read Speaker Bouanchaud's
interview in the States of this day, in
which he says he favors referring to
the people the Prohibition Amend.
ment.
/ cannot agree with him. The
Legislature ought not to follow him.
Every member of that body has taken
an oath to support the constitution
nd laws of the United States, and to
efer this Amendment to the people,
i violative of his oath of office. 1t is
worse than this. It is Sinking a
mandatory duty imposed upon him,
and endeavoring to lodge the respon-
sibility where it does not belong.
The Amendment provides that the
Legislature of three-fourths of the
states, shall adopt or ratify it. 1t is
up to those bodies to perform their
duty. Ratification by the people, or
rejection by them, would be a mere
scrap" of paper binding upon no one.
Why delay the matter? 1t 1t is up to-
us to adopt or reject it. Why plead
the baby act? We are all men, or at
least we are supposed to be. We have
a duty to perform. Imposed upon us
by the supreme law of the land. Shall
we obey the law we have sworn to
support, or shall we dodge the issue
y referring it to the people who are
without authority to pass upon the
same?
As a member of the legislature, l
am going to insist upon the amend
ment being disposed of. The Congress
has imposed this duty upon the leg
islature, and the members of that
body a. not evade it, without disre-
garding their oath of office. To refer
this matter to the people, would be
coWardice on u part, besides a
qualification of ourselves.
am not going to stultify myself,
nor avoid a mandatory law, no mat
ter who advises me so to do. My
own sense OF ~self-respect being in
volved, ! am going to follow no mar,
nor set of men, who would request
me to do otherwise. The Legislature,
the people, must adopt or reject
amendment. so the law is
written"

troubled with constipation. Mrs.
Robert Allison, Nation, ILL.,, writes
that when she first moved to NATION
she was a great sufferer from indiges-

ed her and there was a feeling like a
heavy weight pressing on her stomach
and chest. She did NOT rest well at
night, and felt worn out a good part
of the time. One bottle of Chamber

that she has since felt like a different
