COLDS AND GRIPPE YIELD
 TO CALOTABS OVERNIGHT

TO break up q cold over night or to cut short<an attack of infiuenza, or grippe, physicians and druggists are now recommending Calotabs, the new calomel, that is purified from all dangerous and sickening effects. Those who have tried it say that 1t acts like magic, by far more effec- tive and certain than the old style calomel, heretofore recommended by all physicians. 1
 One CalOtab on the tongue at bed time with a swallow of water,-that's s all No salts, no nausea, nor the slightest interference with eating, work or pleasures. Next morning your cold has vanished and your whole system feels refreshed and pu- rified. Calotabs is sold only in ori- ginal sealed packages, price thirty five cents.

Boys at Industrial Home to be Bene-

The Santa Claus Club of the Boys Division of the M M. C. A. was or ganized last year at which time it made it's first appeal to the public for funds with which to meet the needs of a carefully chosen list of citizens that deserved and needed help in order to make happy and cheery the glad Christmas season.
 A substantial response was made and siXty-seven people were cared for with supplies that would last from four to seven days, and appropriate things included for the ceildren in each home.
 This year the boys of the Industrial home will be added to the list.
 Care will be taken to see that there is no duplication Last year family of eight were added to our list at the request of the Associated Charities office, and the same cooperation will be accorded this year should the re- sponse to the letters now out permit. If you have received your letter from the Santa Claus Club will you not act promptly by making your re- mittance by cash, check or order on your grocer, as the time is short.

OVERWORKED CLERKS

A correspondent of the New York
Sun writes that paper from New
Hampshire thusly: TT seems to
be an amazing principle put forth
by the President that the war must
not bring to government clerks and
other workers in government en-
ploy any greater hardship in the Way
of longer hours or speedier action
than was permissible before war was
declared.
To the plain, common citizen It
would appear that longer hours and
harder work to win the war should
be expected and welcomed. And yet
the President has vetoed an appro-
priation bill because it contained O
clause increasing 'the work day OF
government clerks from seven hours
to eight hours. An eight-hour day
as government clerks usually work
would not seem to be any particular
hardship.
What about our soldier boys in
France. Is their day, risking their
lives every minute, confined to seven
hours? Doesn't it often happen thai
they work more than twice as long
What will our men in the trenches
or on the firing line think of the ten
der solicitude for pampered govern
ment employees? This veto seems to
me to have been most unwise. II
government clerks work only seven
hours. why should not all clerks in
all lines and other employees work
only seven hours or even six hours
or not at al? ?"

Righteous Hymn of Hate

TFrom the Kansas City Star.1
II hate the German Government
with a consuming hatred because
she has made the people Of my
blood and kindred the outcasts of
the world, the Ishmaelites of civili-
zation," p. w. Goebel, Kansas Chair
man of the War Savings Stamp cam
paign, is quoted to have said before
recent convention of bankers at
Hutchinson. Mr.. Goebel was born
in Germany, but is a American
citizen now.
"As rad of fourteen" continued
Mr.. Goebel, II lived in German
garrison city. There I have seen
little, insignificant sergeants and
sublieutenants strike in the face
strong men privates in the ranks. I
have seen them spit in their faces.
/ have heard them call these soldiers
the most vile epithets, and these
men were forced by the iron disci-
plile of Prussia to stand and endure
these insults. That is why I am en-
listed in the war with every energy
possess, with every dollar I own,
to the end that the world and my
kindred may be forever rid of the
foulest tyranny that ever disgraced
and blackened the pages of history" !"

PenroSe Wants to Know
[From the Johnstown Tribune. ]

[From the Johnstown Tribune.1
In his blunt way Senator Pen
rose questioned the propriety of
further extending the Presidential
prerogatives in the direction of adj
ditional power in producing admin
istrators, commissions and agen-
cies for attending to other peoples
business. The Senator pointed out
some of the absurdities committed
in the name of winning the war"
and alleged that rare discrimination
and profound wisdom have not
marked the methods of selecting
men for new positions carrying abb
solute power over the ordinary Gus
toms and occupations of the people.
The American people have been
very patient under all the circum-
stances. Mediocrity and inexperience
have been thrust into important
places. 1t is true the Administra-
tion has been compelled to partial
ly rectify errors in some of the Sc
lections, notably in the ship-build-
ing business and in handling the
steel question. Senator Penrost
voices a large public sentiment in hi:
protest against comforting additional
and unprecedented powers and au.
thorities until that already achieved
has been demonstrated to be for the
public good.

Only AnSWer to Hertling
From the New York Times ]

From the New York Times1
The dispatch of British reinforce
ments to Vladivostok to assist the
Russians and Czecho-Slovaks guard
ing the allied stores from Bolshe-
Wiki acting with German prisoners,
the northward march of the victor
ious Italians in Albania, the sending
of 10000 American soldiers to
France during the last week-these
are the best possible answer to
Chancellor Won Hertling's declara-
ton before the Reichstag Main Com
mittee that I'VE have no intention of
keeping Belgium in any form what
ever" In this form the answer of
the Allies is direct and straightfor-
ward, it is not double-tongued. 1t
has the merit of meeting Won Kuehl-
mann's requirement that communi-
cations between the enemy Govern
ments should be entirely sincere, in
order that the receiver may have
no doubt of the sender's meaning
and good faith. In that respect, the
Allies have a remarkable advantage
over the Imperial Chancellor. His
words do not mean what he would
like to have us think they mean
that Germany has abandoned any of
her main designs. Germany's as
surance that she does not intend to
keep Belgium is of no possible in
terest or importance; the Allies are
going to drive her out of Belgium,
out of France, in all the territory
she now possesses there will be
nothing left of the German occupy
ing troops but their bones. The de-
vastation they have wrought, to be
sure, will remain as a symbol of the
German spirit, as a warning during
the coming years of what German
dominance would mean for the
world,

ADJOURNING POLITICS

w LILLIAN POTTER. fuel ad-
wv ministrator for Pennsylvania
and former United States
Minister to Italy. is out in a state
ment favoring the reelection of
President Wilson by all political
parties.
Mr.. Potter seems to have been
overwhelmed by the Presidents sug-
gestion of an "adjournment" of poll
tics, but he has apparently over
looked the very important fact that
the adjournment of politics was
meant to apply to Republicans only;
that the administration was not to
be included in this halcyon and orig
inal idea of partisan perpetuity.
Many peculiar and unusual ideas
have found expression in recent
days. but so long as the government
of this country is based upon poll
tical parties 1t is not at all probable
that Mr.. Potter's suggestion will
get any more consideration than the
White House proposition of "politi-
