GET READY
 FOR ''FLU''
Keep Your Liver Active, Your System Purified and Free From Colds by Taking Calotabs, the Nausealess Calomel Tablets, that are De-
 ightful, Safe and
 Sure.

Physicians and Druggists are advis- ing their friends to keep their systems purified and their organs in perfect working order as a protection against the return of ipfluenza. They know that clogged up system and a lazy liver favor colds, influenza and serious complications.
 To cut short cold overnight and to prevent serious complications take one Calotab at bedtime with a swallow of water that s all. No salts, no nausea, no griping, no sickening after effects. Next morning your cold has vanished, your liver is active, your system is puri- fled and refreshed and you are feeling fine with a hearty appetite for break fast. Eat what you please-no danger.
 Calotabs are sold only in original sealed packages, price thirty-fve cents. Every druggist is authorized to refund your money if you are not perfectly delighted with Calotabs.-(Adv.)

EXPORTS AND HIGH PRICES.

With food at its present prices it is natural enough
that many Americans should grudge the shipping Of
such quantities to Europe They argue that if all the
foodstuffs raised in this country or anywhere all
Of them remained here there would be such plenty that
prices would fall That is very true But it does not
follow that anybody is to blame for the present stua
ton or that the situation could be changed indeed
that the nation would change it if it possible
The phrase feeding the world, has been much mis-
understood Many otherwise enlightened persons per-
sst in thinking that this is big charitable enterprise to
which the nation is committed There is really little
charity in it at all 1t is almost all together matter
Of business.
The Europeans are paying, and paying high prices,
for every bit of food we send them There simply hap
pens to be an abnormal demand there and we hav
ing surplus, are supplying the demand The fact that
the food shipment and distribution are largely under
government auspices with the cooperation of the allied
governments makes little difference. If the government
authorities not handling the matter that demand
would be met by private enterprise and the American
food surplus would flow abroad just about the same in

RIPPING RHYMES
BY Walt Mason
UNSETTLED.

The world seems going to the dogs, and governments
slipping cogs and everything is wrong all sorts Of
crazy notions thrive and Windy Jims are much alive
and anarchy seems strong The voorhees, workers brag
and boast and send bombs by parcel post and rough
rats by mail; and while the awess hobOes yip some
nervous gents may lose their grip and sweat some blood
and wall The worlds unsettled for time; the German
carnival of crime broke all moorngs loose it's vain to
walk the floor at night and say that everything in sight
is going to the deuce Did you suppose when war was
done that everything would smoothly run without kick
or bak? Didy suppose we'd all get back to walking in
the same old track without squeak or squawk? The
world was shaken to its base and everything knocked out
OF place and naught unured sood did you suppose the
dawn Of peace would make all signs of tumut cease Your
guessing was no good | am surprised things run so well
right after four long years of hell when all our holds were
lost we can't endure such years of strife and then re-
sumo the old time lifewe have to pay the cost The
gents who send their bombs by mail in time will find such
pastme stale and they'll start pitching hay and all the
talk Of blood We hear of bringing on reign of fear will
shortly die away.
