The best insurance against in
fiuenza and pneumonia is a good active
liver and your physician or druggist
will tell you that Calotabs is the most
thorough and effective, as well as the
safest and most agreeable remedy for
this purpose.
One Calotab at bed time with a
swallow of water-that's ALL No
salts, no nausea, nor the slightest n
reference with your eating, pleasure,
or work. Next morning you awake
feeling fine with hearty appetite for
breakfast. Your cold has vanished and
you are ready for work or play. CAL

five cents. Your money handed right

| Some one has said, mot only strike
while the iron is hot, but make it hot
by striking" The more one studies the
/ lives of successful breeders of live
stock where ever they may be found
the more one is convinced that this is
exactly what they do. To strike wniie
while the iron is hot, then, would seem
to be the true secret of real success.

force that he will not only work great
benefit and profit to himself, but an
untold benefit to the community and
state in which he Ives.
Gerstdale Jones, "the king of Poland
Chinas," is going to be sold in Mexico.
| wonder if the people of Audrain

the Dakotas, Iowa, Minnesota and Neb-
raSka, where / attended some of the
greatest sales of Poland China hogs
the World has ever known. 1t was
not the record prices that obtained in
these events, or the spirit of progress
and keen demand being made for the
Poland China hogs that interested me
but the inquiries l received about
Gerstdale Jones.
wonder if the people of my home
county realize that this great boar has
done more to advertise Audrain Co
unity and Mexico than all the splendid
work of the Commercial Club, her sad
die horses and good citiazenry COM
bined? l wonder if they realize that
herd of purebred hogs, of the impor-
tance of this herd is worth moro TO the
county than all the shoe fa actories and
brick plants she possesses? This, /
realize, is taking in lot of territory,
but it is fact. Audrain county, de-
spite stories to the contrary, is way
behind the better Missouri counties in
