HOW DOCTORS
TREAT COLDS
AND THE FLU
First Step in Treatment Is a. Brisk
Purgative With Calotabs, the
Purified and Refined Calomel
Tablets that are Nausea
less, Safe and Sure.

Doctors have found by experience
that no medicine for colds and inHu-
enza can be depended upon for full eff
fectiveness until the liver is made thor
oughly active. That is why the first
step in the treatment is the new, nausea
less colonel tablets called Calotabs,
which are free from the sickening and
weakening effects of the old style calo-
mel. Doctors also point out the fact
that an active liver may go long way
towards preventing influenza and is one
of the most important factors in en-
abling the patient to successfully with
stand an attack and ward off pneu-
monia. 4
One calotab On the tongue at bed
time with swallow of water-that g
all. No salts, no nausea nor the slight
est interference with your eating, pleas
ure or work. Next morning your cold
has vanished, your liver is active, your
system is purified, and you are feeling
fine, with a hearty appetite for break
fast. Druggists sell Calotabs only in
original sealed packages, price thirty
five cents. Your money will be cheer
fully refunded if you do not find them

IN THE LAND OF OPPOR-
TUNITY

There is no other section of the
United States in which the oppor-
tunities for industrial and agricul-
tural development compare with
those of the South.
Don't you want to put your manu-
featuring plant in locality where
you can have the advantages of a
great variety of raw materials, abund-
ant power resources and dependable
labor; where the percentage of for
eign-born population is lower than
in any other part of the United
States?
Don't you want to buy farm
where climatic and soil conditions
are adapted to greater variety OF
crops than in any other part of the
United States: where the growing
season is so long that there is 10
danger of your crops being frozen
either in the spring or in the fall;
where the grazing season is long;
where excellent pastures can be had
and large variety al forage ys1s
can be grown; where lapd values
are advancing, but where there has
been no "bPom," and/prices of farm
lands are $ill low as measured by
their productive value?
If you want factory site or farm
in tho South it is the business of tht
Development Service of the Southern
Railway System to help you hnC
just what you want.

STILL IN THE RANKS

Some OF labor union friends may be interested in the fol-
loving editorial comment of Editor H. F. Mosley OF the Labor
Advocate OF Birmingham Ala in his issue of October 9TH:
On Monday morning we had very pleasing and
surprising visit from Brother lsidor Gelders publisher
OF the Leader-Enteprise of Fitzgerald, Georgia.
1t seemed like old times to see him walk in the office
and carried us back to the time when organized labor
was in its infancy in the Birmingham district, He
one OF the three who signed the call of the labor organi
cations of Birmingham requesting that they send
delegates to meeting TO be held the second Sunday
IN july 1889, to organize central body which then
called and is known the Birmingham Trades
Council 1t successfully launched that date.
The call for this meeting signed by Isidor Gel
ders, of Germania Assembly Knights of Labor g. w Os
born OF the Molders and J. H. F. Mosley OF the Printers
Brother Geldes chairman of the constitution and by
laws committee and Brother Osborn elected first
president OF the Birmingham Trades Council
We are always glad to meet the old time members
OF organized labor who helped organize and fight for
the principles SO dear to every unonists heart.
While Brother Gelders is not running union labor

ISSUES OF 1920 CAMPAIGN
Seen Through the Eyes Of Paul v. Kellogg
BY PAUL v. KELLOGG.
Editor Of The Survey

There will bc at least two issues. The war has changed things
aud foreign. no less than domestic issues, will hereafter grip public
attention. How the two issues Of the 1920 campaign will be phrgscd,
do not venture to say; nor what personalities, events. legislative acts
they will hang on. But my belief is that one issue will be found to
lie somewhere within the question;
'Shal we carry over into industry those principles of selfgov-
eminent aud public control which we have found good IN our demo
cratic civn Hfcf'
And the other question viii he found TO lie somewhere within the
question.
'Shall we curry over into our relations with foreign govern
ments the morality, principles and friendhness which we have found
good between the states of the repubhef'
la a larger sense, the two questions m but two sides of one
question. With the Civil war came the rise Of American industry. the
growth Of our industrial dstricts-our change from an agricultural
to a manufacturing nation. With the World war has come our change
from a provincial nation TO a nation participating in the worlds or
ierinR. The two questions, then. are both of them new renduons Of

"rnder the changed circumstances of industrial life and infer

OIL INVESTMENTS

Looking back upon the records Of the
richest men in the country we find that
in practically all cases their great for
tunes have been amassed either all or
partly through oil investments. Take,
for instance, Rockefeller, who was only
a clerk when he started on his invest
ment career; Sinclair, at one time drug
clerk and now heads the largest indie
pendent oil corporation in the United
States; Governor Shoup, who was orig
inally poor boy until an oil investment
made him one Of the richest men in the
west; then there was Tom Connollee,
formerly conductor, living in Eastland,
Texas, who put his savings in oil invest
ments and later refused a cool million for
his holdings. The stories go on--princes
and paupers have alike been favored
with fortunes from oil investments 1t is
an acknowledged fact that oil has made
more millionaires than any other single
industry
