HOW DOCTORS TREAT
COLDS and GRIPPE

Ask any physician or druggist and
he will tell YOU that the best and
cnly effective remedy for bad colds,
sore throat, influenza or la grippe Is
what he calls "a brief calOmel
purge which means a big dose OF
calomel at bed time. But as the old
style calomel has some very un-
pleasant and dangerous qualities
physicians and druggists are now
recommending the improved nausea
less calomel, called "Calotabs" which
is purified and refined from the
sickening and dangerous effects and
hose medicinal virtues arc vastly
improved.
One Calotab on the tongue at
bed time with swallow OF water,
that's all. No salts, no ncausca
nor the slightest interference with
your diet, pleasures or work. Next
morning your cold has Vanished
and your entire system Is purified
and refreshed.
Calotabs are sold only in original
sealed packages, price thirty-fve
cents. Your druggist guarantees
Calotabs by refunding the price If
you are not alphabetically.

Catarrhal Deafness Cannot BE Curet

Catarrhal Deafness Cannot BE Cured
by local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
There Is only one way to cure ca
tarrhal deafness, and that is by
constitutional remedy. Catarrhal
deafness Is caused by an infiamed
condition Of the mucous lining OF the
Eustachian tube. When this tube is
inflamed you have a rumbling sound
or imperfect hearing, and when il is
entirely closed, deafness Is the re-
suit. Unless the Inflammation can
be reduced and this tube restored to
its normal condition. hearing will be
destroyed forever. Many cases of
deafness are caused by catarrh,
which Is an inflamed condition of
tho mucous surfaces Halls Catarrh
Medicine acts through the blood on
the mucous surfaces Of the system.
We will give one hundred dollars
for any case Of catarrhal deafness
that cannot be cured by Halls Ca
tarh Medicine. Circulars free. All

MCLEAN TWICE
WINNER over
Ed LAMY

Saranac Lake, N. Y, Feb. S-Bobby
Mclean beat Edmund Lamy in two
of their series of three races to de-
eide the professional skating cham
pionship here yesterday afternoon.
The Chicago man won the 220-yard
and the mile pursuit event, while the
Saranac skater captured the two-mile
pursuit race.
No records were broken, as the ice
was a bit too heavy for fast work
Lamy got away flying in the 220-
yard race, but Mclean wore him down
and won with plenty to spare. The
time for the race was 20 seconds. The
mile pursuit event furnished a keener
contest, and Lamy, evidently warm
ing to his work, gave Mclean a battle
every inch of the way, but was beaten
by margin of 3-5 of a second.
The Saranac man then won the
third event, the two-mile pursuit, af-
ter a finish that thrilled the specta-
tors. The two will meet again today
inanother series of races at 440 yards,
a half-mile pursuit and three-mile
pursuit.

CUBS TO RETAIN
LADIES' DAY
CUSTOM

Chicago, Feb. S.-President Weegh-
man of the Chicago Cubs is going to
disregard the rule passed by the Ma
tional League last Fall eliminating
Ladies' Day at the baseball parks. The
rule was proposed by a National Lea
que committee composed of Hermann
of Cincinnati, Dreyfuss of Pittsburgh,
and Ebbets of Brooklyn, and he does
rot favor their judgment any too
strongly, anyway. 1t seems that when
the measure came before the league
in December, Brooklyn, Pittsburgh,
and Cincinnati voted against it while
it was favored by New York, Chi
cago, st. Louis, Boston, and Phila
delphia.
Weeghman cannot figure why Pres
ident Ebbets of Brooklyn should be
opposed to Ladies' Day in Brooklyn
where the women now have the vote,
which may be an important factor i'll
the future question of Sunday base
ball. Weeghman's principal reason
for flying in the face of the National
League rule is that there will be La
dies Day at the White Sox park each
week, so that it will be necessary to
have a Ladies' Day at the National
League Park.
When the league meets here next
week Weeghman is going to endeavo1
to have the league rescind it's vote and
AXE the Ladies Day genera
Throughout the league.

VAN HYDE WINS
US. SQUASH
TITLE

New York, Feb. 8.-Fillmore Van
S, Hyde. played in all his brilliancy
in easily defeating J. Victor Onativia,
Jr., in the final round match of the
National Squash Tennis Association
championship tournament at the Har-
ward Club yesterday. rhe scores were
15-S, 15-4, 1910. Both men rep
resented the Harvard Club Hyde
succeeds Eric S. Winston, a clubmate
who is somewhere in France" as til
tie holder.
OnAtivia found his opponent an ex-
ceedingly difficult proposition and
succumbed to a more finished rival.
Hyde showed wonderful control of the
ball, speeding it around the court, just
nicking the tell-tale. Onativia tried
nightly to intercept the low ball, but
without success.
Hyde often changed his pace and
frequently laid down a placement shot
to catch Onativia flat-footed on the
opposite side of the court:
The game was clearly played. Only
four '1ets" were called during the
game. Each man showed good con-
troll, Hyde driving out of court twice
ard Onativia once. The pace was a
fast one from the start and featured
ty many long rallies. Both men reg
istered a large number of sensational
"gets,'' but the prize one was pulled
ly Hyde, who spun around completely
to get his racquet to the ball.

BAN UPON
COACH WRITER'S
AT u. OF P.

New York, Feb. S-Pennsylvania
has a new system of publicity. From
now on there will be no interviews
given out by coaches, captains or
members of any teams, nor will they
be allowed to write sport articles for
newspapers.
The plan is to have all the news
come from one source and Major My
lin j. Pickering will be the man who
will be given the authority to let out
the news.
The rule was passed last spring, but
it was broken so often that there
was no real attempt to enforce it. DR..
Mcclellan, the chairman of the ath-
letic council, however, has taken the
authority upon himself to see that 1t is
carried out. He has sent letters to
the coach, manager and captain of
every team representing the univers-
ity with instructions to live up to the
spirit as well as the letter of the
lew.
The policy is copied after the sys-
tenn in vogue at Harvard and Yale
The decision to stop newspaper writ
ing activities of coaches might have
been brought about by a recent arti-
Gle stated that it was a mistake-fol
Pennsylvania to devote so much time
and money to rowing when sit devel'
oped only the legs of the athletes"
| Folwell made it very plain that hi
| thought Penn was doing lot of harm
| by fostering rowing, probably at thu
expense of football. At any rate
Major Pickering came right back will
the announcement that it was Penn
| intention to continue not only ROWING
but all other sports of normal times
Now the quietus has been put on Fol
we'll and all other coaches.

WEEGHMAN MAY
GIVE IN TO STAR

Charles F. Weeghman is going to
accede to Grover Cleveland AIexan-
der's demand for a bonus from the
Cubs, according to reports from Chi
cago yesterday.
Nothing but war will keep Alex
ander out of the game" said Weegh-
man. Bonus, salary and any other
matters will be ironed out to his sat-
isfactior."
And in Philadelphia, where the
pitcher stopped on his way to Hot
Springs, Alexander said:
There is no dispute about the sal
airy. The Chicago club assumed that
liability when they purchased my re-
lease from the Philadelphia Tub. AS
to the bonus, I have had no contro-
versy with Mr.. Weeghman. 1 told
him I wanted $40 600 as my portion
of the deal between the Philadelphia
and Chicago clubs and I anticipate
no difficulty over it."
