SINGS LIKE LARK;

a noteworthy demonstration of
what big things a little woman can
do was made manifest in an inter-
view with Phyllis EItis, whose sing
ing has delighted great crowds dur
ing this the opening week at the
Gayety.
Il have two great aims in life
said Miss Eltis. the one, to be a
figure in grand opera some day
and the other to reach the ideal
point in the matter Of making my
own dresses"
And just then this little lady ex-
hibited a charming creation. the
work of her own deft fingers-a
street gown of silk that would put
to blush many a Partisan designer
That's my idea Of what a woman
should wear during these summer
afternoons" And. from the jaunty
appearance Of this ''Eltis-made" ere
alton, this soprano ingenue knew
well the things within the broad
realms OF fashion.
She sings and sews-what a hap

DELIG H TFUL
Calomel, the Most Valuable of
Drugs, Now Purified From Its
Unpleasantness and Sickening
Quahhes-"Calotabs" the New
Name.

The medical virtues OF calotabs are
in no way connected with its nauseat-
ing and dangerous qualities, as is
proven by the fact that the new calo-
mel tablet. called Calotabs, is free
from Objectionable effects yet retains
all of the liver-cleansing and sys-
tem-purifying qualities of the old
style calomel For biliousness. con-
stipation and indigestion. and where
ever calomel is essential, the new de-
nauseated calomel tablet is a practi-
cally perfect remedy.
To inspire public confidence in this
new discovery the manufacturers have
authorized druggists everywhere to
refund the price il the customer is
not perfectly delighted" with Gallo
tabs. Sold only in original packages,
sealed. Price thirty-five cents. One
tablet at bedtime, with a swallow of
water. No taste, no nausea, no grip
ping, no salts. You wake up in the
morning with a clean liver. feeling
fine. and hearty appetite. Eat what
you Ifease-no danger.-Adv.

were relying on a doubt whether the
death was the result of foul play. IT
has been dissipated. DR.. Bert Row.
an. Of Bushnell. called in consulta-
tion few hours before ClugstOn's
death. declared today that there was
no question but what the man was
murdered. 1t also developed today
that caused the investigation and
autopsy.
1t is the action Of the accused
couple, together with the stand taken
by CTuEstOn, that battles the officers.
Apparently without protest, he con-
scented TO the presence OF ID. Alverson
in the home, despite the gossip that
was afiOat
1t was learned today that the doctor
and the woman planned a trip to
Texas this fall. and that the husband
had knowledge of the affair and en-
tered no objection.
Officers are now investigating the
theory that financial reasons were be-
hind the removal OF ClugstOn, as he
carried a $500 insurance policy. ana
there were said TO be a number OF
obligations pressing the doctor for
payment He had purchased some
land in Texas and payments were
necessary.
Whatever qualification the doctor
may not have possessed in general
practice. he was a specialist with tiu
cases. Inyestiga tiOn at his home at
SciOta reveals the fact that he treated
over $50 cases last year, with only
one death. a record they claim is not
cCualed anywhere.
Being president OF the village board,
he was we'll known in the community.

Corn and Provisions.

Chicago, Feb. a.-Heavy specula-
tive selling associated with gossip
about price fixing for basic commod-
tiles more than wiped out advances
in the corn market. The close was
nervous at the same as yesterdays
finish to SAC net lower with May
$112M112 Is and July $1.0S LAG
$10S 10. Oats lost IL to l cent.
In provisions theer were gains of 81
to 50 cents
At first the corn market had an up
ward slant, owing to weekend ad-
justment of trades apd to reports that
no decided increase of selling by ru.
raj holders was looked for.
Houses with eastern connections
though, took an aggressively bearisl
attitude, and finally succeeded in fore
ing declines. Gossip hat a further
downward movement OF commodity
Eprices was inevitable had considerable
to do with the setback.
Reports that packers had received
liberal new. orders from the govern
ment hoisted provisions. Shipment
during the week were far in exces

ports that reductions in the output of
textiles generally had reached drasr
