FOR COLDS AND GRIPPE
DOCTORS FIND REMEDY

Physicians and druggists are elated
over the fact that they have al last
found genuine and dependable rem-
edy for colds, sore throat. influenza.
and la grippe. For years they have
depended chiefly upon the old style
calomel, which is certainly fine, but
unfortunately many people would not
take IL because of its nauseating and
dangerous qualities.
Now that the pharmaceutical chem :
lists have perfected nausealess cal
omel. called "Calotabs'' whose medi-
cinal virtues are vastly improved, the
doctors and druggists are claiming that
Calotabs are the ideal remedy to abort
cold over night and cut short an
attack OF sore throat or la grippe.
They are also finding II most effective
as the first step in the treatment of
pneumonia
One Calotab on the tongue at bed
time with a swallow of water-that' s
all. No salts, no nausea nor the
slightest interference with your eating
or your work and pleasure. The next
morning your cold has vanished and
your whole system is purified and re
freshed. Calotabs are sold only in
original sealed packages: price thirty
five cents. Your druggist recommends
and guarantees them by refunding the
price II you are not delighted. ADV.

have been planned or to throw any
doubt upon the truth of the princi-
pies that properly constructed sea
coast defenses, where pr % p e r
manned and operated may be relief

Sea coast defenses other than guns

Black. :. He pointed out that In fire
upon moving targets, empiaced guns
can give. q faster and more effective
fire In this connection he said:
'~rhe sea target must he observed
to he fred upon. for IL Is in motion.
ON land fire may he directed at great
range and while il may prove inaccu-
rate will do great damage. II is found
that, though artillery has been en-
pioyed ON land with ranges as high as
SO 0h0 yards at Sea the limiting range
used has bern little beyond 10000
yards
General Black pointed out that the
FIRST cost OF disa appearing fourteen
inch gun is about $500, 900 and since
tho life of the gun is about twenty
FIVE years. the annual running cost Is
$4,000,
He compared this with the $4,000
necessary To maintain the gun and the
$50. 600 expended yearly in the main ~
teuance OF the seventy officers and en-
listed men needed 20 man it. making
the point that the cost~@& emplace
