Colds and Grippe Yield
To Calotabs Overnight

To break up a cold over night or to
cut short an attack of influenza or
grippe, physicians and druggists are
now recommending Calotabs, the new
nausealess calomel, that is purified
from all dangerous and sickening eff

that 1t acts like magic, by far more
effective and certain than the old
style salomel, heretofore recommend
cd by all physicians.
One calotab on the tongue at bed
time with swallow Of water
that'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
purified. Calotabs is sold only in
original sealed packages, price thirty
five cents. Recommended and guar
anteed by all druggists. Your money
back if you are not delighted. adv.

CHRISTIAN ENDEAVOR IN
CONGREGATIONAL CHURCHES

Missionary topics come but every
two months this year in the list pre-
pared by the United Society of
Christian Endeavor, hence should be
made twice as strong and helpful as
in former, once-a- month years. On
October 9th the subject is "The Pow
err of the Cross in Latin America"
and for our Young Peoples Depart
ment of Florida we are to devote
some portion of the program to West
Tampa Cuban missions. On account
of most of the mission buildings ard
contents being totally destroyed by
fire last spring, there is all the more
need of our young people not only
giving as expected, one-fourth Of
their church missionary money to
this cause, but also to have a spe-
cial collection on the 9th, adding it
to their per centage year annual gift.
Outline program and other materials
are to be sent each society from the
secretarys Office and she would ap-
preciate a full report later.
Be sure tc remember that the

we send Y. p Department money, Is

FORMER GERMAN ISLANDS
RICH In PHOSPHATE
British Subjects Seek Control of Val.
liable GuanO Beds

Washington, Oct. 1S.-Control of
valuable and extensive deposits of
phosphate rock on Pleasant island,
and Ocean island, former German
property, now in the hands of the
British, is being sought by Australia
and New Zealand with a view to
working the DEPOSITS and using the
fertilizer agent on the soil of the
South Pacific colonies.
The islands are located about mid
way between the Marshall and Solo
non islands and are of coral forma-
ton. For ages they have been the
rockeries of sea birds that have de-
posted guano: and this has impreg-
mated the limestone, forming phos
phate rock about 40 feet deep. The
quantity of phosphates available is
estimated at 5OO,0OO,OO tons and as
fertilizer 1t is said to rival the fam
Gus nitrate of Chile.
