man of Irish extraction. He had ideas
about the war and he aired them to
several of the patroneSseS, including
Mrs. Ditson.
"Shure, and we'd ought to been in
this war from the start NV it. That's

But you ana all men III tne service

Fresh Greens for ti,e Canary.

Canaries are very foud of lettdce, celery tops and CthCr young and ten der greens, as all biralovers knew. When the birdlnan tells ua we must not give these things to our pets too frequently the temptation to go con- trary to advice is strong, for we sym. pathize keenly. An accident showed me the way to gratify our pets without harm to them, as experience has proven. Some months since, q little birdseed was spilled on the earth in a large tub containing a rubber plant. Soon these seeds spr>uted, h1d we hit upon the idea of removing the hottoEa from the cage and setting it over tke young sprouts. The joy the canaries found in their greens, nnd the conSe- Quent discovery that tiie birds were really gaining in health and song con. vinced us that box of sprouting bird seed was the thing to keep on hand for them.-EXchange.

WHY ID ALL DOCTORS
 PRESCRIBE CALOMCL? :?

Of all the medicines in the world, doctors prescribe calomel most often
 and depend upon it most universally.
 There must be good and sufficient
 reason-what is it?
 If you will study the doctors books
 you will find that the medical author
 ities prescribe calomel for almost ev-
 cry disease. The reason is that calo-
 mel is the greatest and only thorough
 system-puritie1. It makes the liver
 active, drives cut the poisons from the
 stomach. bowels and kidneys and thereby purifies the blood. Calomel puts the entire system in the most favorable condition fer Nature to ex- ercise her recuperative power. Your doctor will tell you that drugs merely assist Nature. That is why he pre- scribes calomel so often.
 The new kind of calcmal, called "Calotabs," is refined and purified from all of the nauseating and dang erous qualities of the old style calo- mel and is rapidly taking its place, for it is more effective than the old style calomel as liver-cleanser and system purifier. One Calotab at bed time. with a swallow of water-that's
 all. No nausea, nor the slightest un pleasantness. Next morning you awake feeling fine-with a hearty ap- petite for breakfast. Eat what you please-fruits, acids or anything. No restrictions of habit or diet. Calotabs are sold only in original,
 sealed packages, price thirty-five cents
