HOW DOCTORS TREAT
| COLDS AND GRIPPE

Ask any physician or druggist and
he will tell you that the best and on
ly effective remedy for a bad cold,
sore throat, influenza or la grippe is
what he calls "a brisk calomel purge"
which means big dose Of calomel at
bed time. But as the old style Gallo
mel has some very unpleasant and
dangerous qualities physicians and
druggist are now recommending the
improved nausealess calomel, called
aCalotabs" which is purified and re-
fined from the sickening and danger
Gus effects and whose medical 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-five
cents. Your druggist guarantees
Calotabs by refunding the price II
you are not delighted.-adv.

WOMEN TORTURED.
Suffer Terribly With Corns Because
of High Heels, but Why
Care Now.

Women wear high heels which
buckle up their toes and they suffer
terribly from these pests, seeking re-
lief but they hardly realize the ter
rible danger from infection, says a
Cincinnati authority.
Corns can easily be lifted out with
the fingers if you viii get from any
drug store a quarter of an ounce
ia drug called freezone. This Is
sufficient to remove every hard or soft
corn or eallus from ones feet. You
simply apply a few drops directly
upon the tender, aching corn or callus.
The soreness is relieved at once and
soon the entire corn or callus, root
and all, lifts ont without one particle
of pain.
This freezone is sticky substance
which dries in a moment. 1t just
shrivels up the corn without infam-
ing or even irritating the surround
ing tissue or skin. Tell your wife
about this. Adv.

FOCH ALTERED
ARhISTICE TERMS
Made Changes in IS Instances. Some
Apparently at Request Of Ger
mans, Others Adding Sew
enty to Original Draft

Washington, Nov 12-Germany
loses her entire fleet Of submarines
under the armistice terms as amend
ed by Marshal Foch before he signed
them with the German ENJOYS Mon
day morning. Instead Of 100 vessels,
every one of the undersea pirate craft
must be surrendered to the allies and
the United States within IA days.
Eighteen Of the articles, as origi-
nally prepared by the Supreme War
Council and as read by President
Wilson TO Congress were changed I'M
der the limited authority for altera-
ton given the supreme commander
in dealing with the enemy ENJOYS.
The State Department today re-
ceived and made public the amended
articles with the explanation that no
information had come as 10 how the
changes were brought about. APP
parently most of them were conced-
ed in response to appeals of the Ger
man spokesman, although several be-
sides that concerning submarines
make the terms more drastic than be-
fore.
Instead of $4,000 railroad cars, to
be surrendered in evacuated terrific
ry, the number is made 10000. The
number Of machine guns to be deliv-
cred by the Germans is reduced from
sc, 900 10 $4,000. The German troops
in East Africa are permitted to evac
uate instead Of being required to
surrender. Provision is made for
considering food needs in Germany IN
the taking of means of Transports
ton and a specific reference to the
regulation Of prisoners of war at the
conclusion of peace is added.
Evacuation of Russia Delayed.
In response to the German fear Of
anarchy in occupied Russian prov
inces after evacuation, the time of
evacuation is changed from immedi-
ateIy to Gas soon as the allies, TAX
ing into account the internal situa-
ton of these territories shall decide
that the time for this has come.
Territories which belonged to Aus
tria- Hungary before the war are add
ed 10 those which must be evacuated.
Another added clause provides for
an armistiee commission to which
Germans will be admitted, to carry
out details under the direction Of the
victorious military authorities and in
accord with appended notes, which
were drafted during the conference
between Marshal Foch and the Ger
man delegates.
The additions and changes close
