Why Doctors
 Prescribe The
 sNew Calomel
Medicinal Virtues Retained and lmproved-Unpls ant and Salivating Qual- ities Removed-New Vari- ety Called "Calotabs"

Of all the medicine in the world, doctors prescribed calomel most often and depend upon it most universally. There must be a good and sufficient reason what Is It?
 If you will study the doctors books you will find the medical authorities prescribe calomel for almost every disease. The req son is that calomel is the greatest and only thorough system puri. fer. It makes the liver active, drives cut the poisons from the stomach, bowels and kidneys and thereby purifies the blood. Cal omel puts the entire system in the most favorable condition for Nature to exercise her recupera. tive power. That is why he pre- scribes calomel so often.
 The new kind of calomel. call ed 'Calotabs," is refined and purified from all nauseating and dangerous qualities of the old style calomel and is rapidly talk Ing its place. for 1t is more effec- i've than the old st. le calomel as . liver-cleanser and liver purifier. One Calotab at bedtime. with a swallow of Water--that's all. No salts, no nausea, nor the slight- est unpleasantness. Next morn ing you awake feeling fine with a hearty appetite for breakfast. Eat what ou please. No restric- tions of habits or dlet.
 Catotabs are sold only in or iginal. sealed packages, price thirty-five cents. All druggists are authorized to refund the price if you are not delighted with Calotabs. -(adv)

By "the dead" is here meant those bur- jed in our cemetery and the sol diers lost in the recent war. By "the living" is here meant all mothers. Especially the mothers of soldiers, and more especially the mothers of soldiers lost in the war, and also the living sol- diers themselves. The commit tee not having means to make these investigations personally here by asks that this notice be considered as a personal call to join in a patriotic and christian observance of the day.
