FOR COLD AND GRIPPE, FOLLOW
DOCTORS ADVICE.

Ask your physician or druggist and
he will tell you that the first step in
the treatment of cold, cough, influ-
enza or grippe should be invariably
be "a brisk calomel purgative, pre-
ferably the nausealess calomel, call
ed Calotabs." This alone is often suf-
ficent to break up severe cold over
night, or cut short an attack of
grippe and possibly prevent pneu-
monia.
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 eat
ing, pleasures or work. Next morn
ing your cold has vanished and your
entire system is purified and refresh
ed. Calotabs are sold only in orig
inal sealed packages; price thirty five
cents. Recommended and guaran-
teed by druggists everywhere. Price
refunded if you are not delighted.

The Airplane Disappointment

The American people have been
putting up their money at a rate
that has surprised even themselves.
There is no limit to what they will
do to support the Government in war
time. But, now that it has been
pointed out that from seven to eight
months have been lost in airplane
production, it is not surprising that
there is good deal of bitter disap-
prevail. 1t is suggested that in mere
money we lost half a billion dollars
on airplane miscalculation, and one
Of the leading newspapers of the
country comments that 1--WE have not
so many half billions to blow in as
we thought we had a year ago."

STATE FEDERATION OF WOMAN'S
CLUBS MEET IN LOUISVILLE.

In all war work the women have
been playing extremely important
parts and reports from the Semi-an-
nual board meeting of the State Fed
Grafton of Women's Clubs, held at the
Henry Waterson Hotel in Louisville,
Wednesday, shows the recent results
of their efforts. Mrs. J. C.. Helburn,
of Eminence, reported that the fund
for the purchase of an ambulance,
which was contributed to the War
Department by the women of the
State, had been oversubscribed by
over a thousand dollars. Mrs. Hell
burn added:
I'm still getting money, although
wrote to one or two organizations
that the fund had been subscribed,
and suggested that further contribu-
tons be diverted to other war enter
prises.''
The overflow subscription, by vote
of the meeting, was invested in Lib
erty Bonds. AS the federation had
previously subscribed $500, they now
hold $1,000 worth of bonds.
Miss Alice Lloyd, of Maysyille,
chairman of the committee appointed
last June at the meeting of the fed
reation in Lexington, to secure the
$40, 900 pledged by the club women
of the State for the Kentucky Train
ing School for Delinquent Girls, also
reports an oversubscription Of about
81 700.
The federation, upon a request for
the women's committee, Council Of
National Defense of Kentucky, have
taken as their special work for the
winter, the treasure and trinket
fund for the Aviation Corps" of the
army.
Altogether the women's clubs all
over the State have been doing a
wonderful activities.

American Dollars In Spain.

American dollars are at a heavy
discount in Spain and a number of
other foreign countries. Spanish
banks have refused to extend credit
to importers of the United States.
SPANS attitude in putting the United
States on a basis where it even looks
aloof upon American securities is not
at ell hattering; but this is only one
phase Of some of the large and com
pIioated questions in International
exchange. Americans have a notion
that they must have Spanish olive
oil and things of that kind which
can just as well be produced in Cal
ifornia and other parts Of the United
States. While the thrift habit is be-
ing cultivated in so many different
directions the public ought not to
neglect the opportunity Of holding
down on the consumption Of import
ed goods. This is one way to help
support the credit of the United
States; and the policy will furnish q
very effective answer to such coun-

At all his appointments, DR.. Bru-

that he is going to be elected United
States Senator. This is for the pur-
pose of impressing those who like to
be on the winning side, of the i'm

wagon, but he does not fool sensible
people with such balderdash. The
fact is he stands no more chance of

SAINT with the best methods of rem
dering support to the President, with
whose aims and plans for winning the
war is in entire sympathy, especially
when the President urges that the
Governor be sent to take UP the great
work of the lamented James. There
is not the shadow of doubt as to the
course that Governor Stanley will
pursue. DR.. Bruner may think, as he
asserts, that he will give the Presi-
dent his loyal support, but if his
party finds that it can score polit-
ical advantage by doing otherwise he
will follow orders like sheep follow

will take no chance, but show to the
great man at Washington that they
are heartily with him by electing
Governor Stanley, in every way fit

ident the most effective aid in his
plans for the complete overthrow of
the German brutes.

SECRETARY LANSING REPLIES
TO GERMAN CHANCELLOR.

"Sir: I have the honor to &C.
knowledge on behalf of the President
your note of October 6 inclOsing the
communication from the German gov
eminent to the President, and I am
instructed by the President to re-
quest you to make the following COM
munication to the Imperial German
Chancellor:
Before making reply to the re-
quest of the Imperial German Gov
eminent and in order that that re-
ply should be as candid and straight
forward as the momentous interests
involved require, the President of the
United States deems it necessary to
assure himself of the exact meaning
of the note of the Imperial Chan
cellor.
Does the Imperial Chancellor
mean that the Imperial German Gov
ernments accepts the terms laid down
by the President in his address to
the Congress of the United States ON
the 9Th day of January last and in
subsequent addresses, and that it's OBJ
ject in entering into discussion would
be only to agree upon the practical
details of their application?
1.-THE President feels bound to say
with regard to the suggestion Of an
armistice that he would not feel at
liberty to propose cessation of arms
to the governments with which the
government of the United States is
associated against the Central Pow
ers as long as the armies of those
powers are upon their soil. The good
faith of any discussion would mani
testify depend upon the consent of the
Central Powers Immediately to with
draw their forces everywhere from
invaded territory.
1.-THE President also feels that he
is justified in asking whether the
Imperial Chancellor is speaking
merely for the constituted authorities
of the empire who have so far con-
Quoted the war? He deems these
questions vital from every point of
view.
Accept, sir, the renewed assur-
ance of my high consideration.

SIXTY-FOUR MISSING IN PERTH
AMBOY CASTROPHE.

PERTH AMBOY, N. j., October 8.
-Sixty-four men are missing and
325 of the 700 buildings of the 7.
A. Gillespie Loading Company plant
at Morgan, N. j., were destroyed In
the fire and explosions that swept
the big shell factory on Friday and
Saturday, according to an official
statement made by Thomas A.
Gillespie, President of the corpora
ton, here Monday afternoon.
Gillespie declared that the labor
camp, consisting of 40 buildings, is
practically intact and that the power
house, docks, traffic system through
the works and the storage warehouses
and magazines had not been damaged
to any great extent. The statement
was issued after the head of the COM
pany, with United States army au-
thorities, had made complete survey
of the plant.
The initial explosion probably oc-
Cured in a shell loading room and
was possibly caused by an "inadver-
operators" says the statement. The
theory that it occurred in the amatol
kettles or the T N T service magazine
is secuted.
Mr.. Gillespie announced that re-
construction of the huge plant had
already been started.
The first explosion, according to
the statement, occurred about $40
o'clock Friday night in the No. 1 unit
of the six-inch shell plant, where 76
men were at work. Twelve of these,
including two Government inspectors,
are accounted for. The balance are
missing.

AT a religious meeting In Pennsyl-
vania a youth asked the prayers of the
pastor and people in order that he
might become redheaded. 1t seems
that his hair was Of a yellowish-white
shade that was no color at all. He had
heard the red heads were good scrap
pers, and he was praying the Lord to
give him red hair so that he might go
forth to fight the kaiser. There's
something in this, too, and there's an
idea abroad that regiment of auburn
haired Amazons could put a crimp in
the Prussian quicker than a whole d.
vision Of mere chocolate-haired men.

Apple Pies.

The great Virginia apple crop is
coming to market, and Washington
war workers are making raids upon
the apple pie counters. A good many
of the girls from .'the old home town"
remember the days when the neigh
bors used to send in an apple pie and
thought no more of it than do the
heroic little stenogs who now divide
their chewing gum with their chums.
For chewing gum in Washington is
as common as chiggers in Mississippi,
and as respectable as grape juice in
Lincoln, Nebraska, even though it is
six cents package on many show
cases. At the restaurants where they
still have bill-of-fare apple pies
have attained the commercial dig
nifty of being listed at ten cents per
cut. while in the more magnificent
establishments, where menus" tell
the order of the day, the prices are
from fifteen to thirty cents; thus
raising the price of the bakers
product from sixty cents in cheap
places to one dollar and eighty cents
for one pie of six standardized cuts in
the swell hotels.
Now, good juicy apple pies are
supposedly made principally of ap-
Piles. and it is pretty mess when the
contents spread between the crusts
made of a few cents worth of real
American white flour, treated to a
varnish of real American lard, is put
on the counter for human patriots
to eat at the present high rate of
purchase. Apple pies have advanced
several hundred per cent. since those
days when you could get a glorious
golden-brown piece Of pie for nickel
at swell restaurant. However, pies
have permanently abandoned the
fvecent zone-a price left for only
a few things that one can purchase.
The sugar for apple pies used to sell
at twenty pounds for a dollar; but,
even though sugar is now so scarce
that everybody is economizing on it,
it refuses to recognize the ancient
nickel pound schedule. American
white -four, American lard, and
American spices, have shot upwards
in the commercial scale, and have
added their own particular evidence
to the claims of the man at the
bakery, and the man at the pie coun-
ter against unlimited supplies of pie
at popular prices"

The Value of Liberty Bonds.

nearly five per cent. The reason is
all found to be in exemptions from
income tax-the first bonds being ex-
empt from all income tax, while the
third are exempt only from the nor
