THERE is no better foil for that
= dashing youth which can so ire
sponsibly gather it's hair into lovely
chignon or distracting curls, than the
Quaker simplicity of this shimmery
taffeta party dress. Color: the faint
est shade of orchid. The skirt is quite
broadminded in its fulness, and is ex-
tremely original in its insertions of
"cameos" of dove gray Georgette del
icately embroidered by machine with
silver thread, orchid and jade silk.
The hem is edged with tiny frill Of
gray Georgette. The soft folds of
the bodice are gathered into a perky
little loop at the side.
The headdress is a band of black
velvet with appliqued silk flowers
and the wrap which is so kindly
shown by this smart young lady is
made of Joffre blue velvet, lined with
apricot-colored pussy-willow silk, and
elegantly collared with white fox.

DOCTORS FIND
REMEDY FOR
COLDS AND FLU
Calotabs, the New Nausealess Gallo
mel Tablets, Cut Short Colds
and May Prevent Flu by
Keeping Liver Active.

Physicians have learned from ex-
perience, during the epidemic of in
fiuenza, that one of the most impor-
taDt factors in the prevention of flu
and pneumonia is to keep the liver ac-
tive so that the digestive organs may
be in perfect working order and the
system thereby enabled to throw off
colds, check sore throats, and resist
serious complications. For this pur-
pose they have found that the new,
nausealess calomel tablets called Cal
otabs, are far more effective even
than the old style calomel, which was
formerly the universal favorite, as
Calotabs do not weaken the patient,
nor interfere with the appetite and
digestion.
At the first sign of a cold or sore
throat, doctors recommend one Gallo
tab at bed time with a swallow of
water-that' all. No salts, no nau-
sea, nor the slightest interference
with your diet, pleasure, or work.
Next morning you wake up feeling
fine, your liver is active, and your ap-
petite is keen for good breakfast.
For your protection Calotabs are
sold only in original packages, price
thirty-five cents. All druggists rec
ommend and guarantee Calotabs.
Your money back if you are not de-
lighted with them.
