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 remedy for colds, sore throats. influenza, and la grippe. For years they have de- pended chiefly upon the old style calomel. which is certainly fine, but unfortunately many people would not take if because of it's nauseating and dangerous qual- ities.
 Now that the pharmaceutical chemists have perfected neaus- ealess calomel, called "Calotabs" whose medicinal virtues are vast ly improved. the doctors and druggists are claiming that Cal otabs are the ideal remedy to abort cold over night and 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 swallow of water that's all. No salts, no nausea nor the slightest interference with your eating or your work and pleasure. The next morning your cold has vanished and your whole system is purified and re- freshed. Calotabs are sold in original packages only; price thlrty-five cents. Your druggist recommends and guarantees them by refunding the price if you are not delighted. --adv.

From a CoIored Soldier

 Mrs. Jessie Johnson:
 D. ar mother:- recei ed your letter and it found me well and getting along just fine, so far. 1 sure was glad to hear that you all were well and getting on nicely. l am also glad to hear that y are coming back to Ozark because after 1 look over the matter the work may be too hard. and l know you have no business doing hand work. 1 want you to take good care of your self while 1 am away, and some day 1 will be where 1 can take care of you and papa also.

And mama. tell all of those peo- pie l want to write to them, but we are allowed just one letter a week and 1 tried to write all of them to you. and tell Werna l said 1 am going to answer her letter pretty soon, but the man she asked me about 1 have not seen him since Pv been here. Tell her that her letter sure sounded sweet until she began to ask about that negro. but 1 did enjoy it any way.
 Mother, you asked me about sending Tom to school: l don't know what to say about it. but as you are not at home very much, and papa is not either. 1 think 1 would wait until you see further.
 Papa asked me to tell him some things and 1 can not tell them, but he may know 1 can't write anything only what they say.
 Mama, look for one dozen of my pictures, am going to start them right away, and you be sure and give old Cab one and tell him 1 am going to answer his letter right away.
 Tell those old grandmothers and fathers and uncles and aunts that 1 said hello, and tell them that when l crossed the branch 1 almost came through. ." What 1 mean by saying that is that 1 lacked just a little of being a preacher. You talk about a negro praying, 1t was 1 that did it and believe me Pm still pray ing.
 We'll, mama. 1 am going to close because 1 am going out this afternoon. Answer soon. Tell old Tom to be a good boy and stick to my mother. Be good and you three people be as one.

31.-(By the Associated Press-)-
American and French troops launch
ed an attack Wednesday afternoon
from sertnges to Cierges, on the cen-
ter OF the Marine front for the purpose
ishing barbed wire entanglements
which the Germans have placed
through the hills, forests and open
places.
The Germans Wednesday used a
new gas having a white flame and
smoke
The Allies brought into action their
heavy artillery, their aviators and pa
trolls having reported mile after mile
of barbed wire standing along the
German lines. The heavy guns soon
found the range of the entanglements.
Some enemy infantry had dug in be-
hind the wires, but the lines were
for the most part manned by ma
chine gunners.
The German artillery reply consist
ed chiefly Of shells from the IT'S and
1865. The machine guns, with the
heavier pieces indicated, were active
in In effort to prevent an Allied ad-
vance.
The purpose Of the American and
French attack which was in a north
easterly. direction, is probably to out
flank the Meuniere wood and to cut
of the blunt edged salient in the line
between Ronningny and Cierges. This
salient was made more acute by the
American advance north from Cierges
to Seringes.
