avenue, has an interesting story to
relate concerning a package sent to
Belgium when that country was be-
ing invaded during the early period
of the world war.
The first ship sent across. the At

countries of Europe contained pack
ages from many cities of the United
States of which Columbia was one
Among the packages from Columbia
was one from Mrs. Hunt in which she
had inclosed her calling card.
In January, 1918, she received
card from A. Greiner, Sering, Bel
gium. He acknowledged the receipt
of the package and expressed thanks
to the sender. On the opposite side
of the card were the words: "On
account of the Hun invasion this card
has been held three and one-hali

1915.
The Wreeking OF a Factory.
Mrs. Hunt put it away as wal
relic. She did not know whether A
Greiner was man, woman or child
This year when sending out Christ

out of the war uninjured.
She Immediately received replies
One was written on the back Of

town in which the writer lived and
what had once been a factory.
The letter said: Il am the son OF

This plant was founded in 1917 by an
Englishman.

valuation in 1914 was s30,00O,OO0. Al
that time about $4,000 men worked in
the factory.
During the time the Huns occu-
pied the factory l never left it. What
machinery they did not carry back
to Germany they destroyed
10000 Men At Work Again.
The post card showing scenes ol
the ruins of the factory has penned
on it these words: "A sample OF
German 'Kultur.'
On another card NJ. Greiner writes
my father died during the war land
| succeeded him as general manager
of the plant. We are rebuilding the
factory as rapidly as possible and
and working 10000 men a day. We
are getting back some of our stolen
machines
The Belgian says he is 40 years
old and the father of three children
Their ages are %, 20, Is. His oldest
son was in the war and came out un-
hurt. His wife is chairman Of the
relief committee in their town.
His penmanship and English are ex-
cellent although he says French is
the language of that locality.

ROBS CALOMEL OF
NAUSEA and DANGER
Medicinal Virtues Retained and
Improved-Dangerous and
Sickening Qualities Removed
New Tablet Called "Calotabs."

The latest triumph of modern
pharmacy is "de-nauseated" calo-
mel tablet known to the drug trade
as "Calotabs." Calomel. the most
generally useful of all medicines thus
enters upon a wider field of populari-
ty-purified and refined from those
Objectionable qualities which have
heretofore limited its use.
In biliousness, constipation, head
aches and indigestion, and in a great
variety of liver, stomach and kidney
troubles calomel was the most sue
cessful remedy but it's use was often
neglected on account of it's sickening
qualities. Now it is the easiest and
most pleasant of medicines to take.
One tablet on the tongue at bedtime
with a swallow of water-that's all.
No taste, no gripping, no nausea, no
salts. A good nights sleep and the
next morning you're feeling fine with
a clean liver, purified system and
a big appetite. Eat what you please.
No danger.
Calotabs are sold only in original,
sealed packages, price thirty-five
cents. Your druggist is authorized to
refund the price as a guarantee that
you will be thoroughly delighted with

The power of compound interest

There are many billions of dollars

total industria and commercial loans

unearned interest, adds to their bur

There is an honest interest charge

Speedy Relief
From Habitual
Constipation

The liver is the largest and most
important organ in the body, and
when the liver refuses to act it caus-
es constipation, biliousness, head
aches, Indigestion, gas, sour stom-
ach, bad breath, dysentery, diarrhoea,
pains in back and under shoulder
blades on right side. These symptoms
lead to colds, influenza or other Sc
rious troubles unless corrected imme-
diately.
An inactive liver places an extra
burden on the kidneys which over
taxes them and causes the blood to
absorb and carry into the system the
impurities that the liver and kidneys
have failed to eliminate.
When you treat the liver alone,
you treat only third of your trouble
and that is why you have to take pur-
gatives every few nights. Calomel or
other ordinary laXatives do not go far
enough. If you would treat your kid
neys and blood while treating the liv-
er, you would put your entire system
in order and frequent purgatives
would then be unnecessary.

Randolph was under no obligation to
obey the orders of Mr.. Ansley or any

competent man, and l am at loss to
understand how he became a member

ties of his own to perform at the

1T is not the purpose of the high

ued, ito countenance any unmanly
or unlawful conduct upon the part
of any of its employees, but | hardly
feel that a man should be summarily
discharged fer being in bad company
during his off hours. And don't un.
derstand me to say that the party
with whom Randolph was associated
constituted bad company but that
it now appears, is the sole offense
charged against Randolph. When the
matter is brought to my attention in
an official way, it will be investiga-
ted thoroughly and action suitable to
the result of the investigation will
