DOCTORS SAY
THE NEW CALOMEL
IS BEST MEDICINE
New Variety, Called CaIOtabs, Is
Purified and Refined From
Nauseating and SaIivating Ef-
fects-MedicinaI Virtues Re-
tanned and Improved

According to the worlds greatest ply
sicians and medical authorities. calomel
was the best and most universally useful
of all medicines. Medical authorities pre-
scribed calomel for almost every disease
and explained that 1t was the best and
surest of all system purifiers. They say
that calomel cleanses the liver. stomach,
bowels and kidneys and purifies the blood
from all poisons, making the system pure
and clean so that nature can quickly re-
store the health.
Now that science has purified calomel
of all it's nauseating and dangerous quail
tiles. the new kind of calomel, called
"Calotabs," is even more popular than the
old. AS a liver-cleanser and system purl-
fer Calotabs are more effective than the
old style calomel, yet are entirely delight
full in effect. One Calotab at bedtime
with a swallow of water-that's all. NO
nausea, no salts, nor the slightest IN
pIeasantness. Next morning you awake
feeling fine, with hearty appetite for
breakfast. Eat what you please and go
where YOU please-there is no restriction
of habit or diet or danger Of salvation.
Calotabs are sold only in original, sealed
packages, price thirty-fve cents. Your
druggist recommends and guarantees Cal
otabs, and will refund your money II you

II You Need a Medicine
You Should Have the Best

Have you ever stopped to reason why
Il is that so many products that are ex-
tensively advertised, all at once drop out
Of sight and are soon forgotteng The
reason is PLAINTIFF article did not fulfill
the promises Of the manufacturer. This
applies more particularly to a medicine.
A medicinal preparation that has real
curative value almost sells itself, as like
an endless chain system the remedy is
recommended by those who have been
benefited, to those who are in need of it.
A prominent druggist says "Take for
example DIR. Kilmer's Swamp-Root, a
preparation l have sold for many years
and never hesitate to recommend, for in
almost every case it shows excellent re-
suits. as many Of my customers testify.
No other kidney remedy has so large a
sale"
According to sworn statements and
verified testimony of thousands who have
used the preparation, the success of DR..
Kilmer's Swamp Root is due to the fact,
so many people claim, that it fulflls al
most every wish in overcoming kidney,
liver and bladder ailments; corrects uri'
nary troubles and neutralizes the uric
acid which causes rheumatism.
You may receive a sample bottle OF
Swamp-Root by Parcels Post. Address
DR.. Kilmer & Co., Binghamton, N. Y,
and enclose ten cents; also mention this
paper. Large and medium size bottles
for sale at all drug stores.-Adv.

LOOK BEYOND THE LABEL

The pantry list contains quite as
many items that are valuable TO the
cook according to their good spelling
qualities as 1t does of articles that are
valuable because Of their good keeping
qualities. SO 1t often happens that
such claims as 'keeps always" wont
SPOIL" etc., as read every day In adj
vertisements would mean, IL true, that
no service could be expected Of these
products.
For example, take matches-the
match that won't spoil is not match
but a stick. Its only use is its spoil
Ing. Another item that gives still q
better example is that of baking pow
der which years ago was considered
by many as food but In reality Is
not food but merely a preparer OF
food; still, through misleading adver'
tisements many people have been led
to believe that they eat baking pow
der, but this is not the case. Like the
match, baking powder must spoil" In
order to serve.
So, keeping qualities may be impor'
tant only as they insure spelling quail
tiles. which merely means that such
items must be manufactured so that
the spelling will not take place pre-
maturely and fail when used.
Thus, it is that a small box OF
matches may be cheap at cents com
pared with a box double the size al
6 cents, or a quarter Of pound can
Of baking powder of the type that
only requires one level teaspoonful to
the cup Of flour (such as calumet)
will go further than a Bounce tin
Of low-grade goods, sold for the same
money. The size Of the package OF
the attractiveness of the label near
nothing. Values must be measured BY
the service they give. It's the only
safe way tOday.-Adv.

Vote for the Road Bond Issue.

= On next Tuesday, May 90,
the taxpayers of the Parish
st. Mary, with the exception
Of. the fourth ward, will vote
on the proposition submitted
to them to authorize the iseu-
ance of bonds to the amount
of $500. 600 for the construc-
ton Of model roads. This
proposition means. if adopt
ed, that every public high
way in this parish will with
in a few months become a
durable, Ilard-snrfaced road.
capable of sustaining the
severest traffic during bad as
we'll as good weather. 1t
means relief from the ills
resulting from impassabie
roads:
The bond issue will be
authorized we are confident
Of that. because there is no
organized opposition to it.
and because we may truth
fully say, that the property
holders are almost unaAi-
mously in favor OF it. We
have. no fear of the defeat
Of the measure, but We do
fear that many voters, feel,
ing confident that the bond
issue will lie authorized
whether they vote Or not,
will not take the trouble Of
going to the polls on election
day and voting for it. They
may say, there is no necessity
Of our voting, the PROPOSE
ton will he carried any
how" This is not only bad
in principle but worse as a
matter of duty. for many
reforms beneficial to the peo-
pie have been lost ty such
inexcusable negligence.
We, therefore, appeal TO
every property holder i'll the
Parish Of st. Mary to take
the trouble of going to the
polls on next Tuesday and
cast his vote actually in
favor OF good roads. 1t will
not be satisfactory, at least i,
that the good roads prop 2si-
tion be carried only by a
meagre majority i'll numbers
and amount Of a few who
! will take the trouble of vot-
ing, but We shonld lot the
world know that real ma
jority of all the taxpayers
living in the Parish of st
Mary voted and voted for this
much needed improvement.
