The same afternoon found Harvey
Hunt at the scene OF the fire. 1t was
a point at which freight was transferred
from one railroad to another, rather a
deserted spot. The station was in
charge Of an agent paid Jointly by the
two roads, and consisted Of several
small storage buildings and an Office.
One Of these buildings was n mass Of
smoldering, ruins. It was only a one
story affair 35 by so feet. but the walls
had fallen in and the automobiles we're
an indistinguishable mass Of wrcckage.
Hunt fell into conversation with one Of
tho fircmen who remained on duty.
''Somc fire." the man remarked.

"I'll be over there in a minute" said
Hunt. He continued his conversation
with the fireman for a while. Then he
paced of the length and width Of the
building accurately and finally sauntcred
over to the Office, where he looked at
the duplicate Of the agent report

into the building the night before mud ai,d

Calomel salivatesl It's mercury.
Calomel acts like dynamite on a slug
gish liver, When calomel comes into
contact with sour bile It crashes into

If you feel bilious, headachy, consti-

your druggist and get bottle Of Dodr
sons Liver Tone for few cents which
is a harmless vegetable substitute for
dangerous calomel. Take a spoonful
and If it doesn't start your liver and
straighten you up better and quicker
than nasty calomel and without maxi
ing you sick, you just go back and
get your money.
If you take calomel today you'll be
sick and nauseated tomorrow; besides,
It may salivate you, while if you take
Dodson's Liver Tone you will wake up
feeling great, full of ambition and

This Man All Ups and Downs.

]. B. Evans is one of the men who
has distinctive job IN the United
States, no other man having a similar
job, or at least not exactly similar. He
is the man that runs the elevator in
the Washington monument, and he has
been sliding up. and down that white
shaft for AZ years, an exchange states.
If one estimates in miles the number
of feet he has risen and fallen again,
one could find that similar distance
would run three times around the
world.
In addition to this the number Of
men and women from every part of the
world who have been carried up by him
would populate New York city, and
their numbers have included every So
cial condition known to man, from ruiz
ing powers to paupers, and from Af-
rican savages to scientists from the
worlds universities. He never COM
puted the number of times he has been
asked: How high is the monumentP'

Prehistoric Skeletons.

The skeletons of a prehistoric ele-
phant and a prehistoric OK have just
been found at a depth of 45 feet be-
low the soil of London, when excava-
tions were made for a building in Re
gent street. The bones date back to
the days when the world was young,
and mammoths, giant elephants and
hippopOtami lived in the great semi
tropical marshes of what is now Eng
land.
The finding of such traces Of for
mer ages is not a novelty in this ge-
Ologically old country. A few years
ago a lump Of ivory weighing 16
pounds was dug up at Chelsea, and
was found on investigation to be a
mammoth's tooth. The skull Of an
enormous rhinoceros was dug up In
Fleet street recently. In 1901 lead
coffin, containig the bones of a human
being, believed to have lived 1000
years ago, was unearthed In north

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

Doctors have found by experisncs
that no. medicine for colds and inhu-
enza can be depended upon for full ef-
fectiveness until the liver is made thor.
Oughly active. That is why the AFst
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-
Rbling the patient to successfully with
stand an attack and ward of pneu-
monia.
One Calotab on the tongue at bed
time with q swallow Of water-that's e
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
fne, with a hearty appetite for break
fast. Druggists sell Calotabs only in
original sealed packages, price thirty
ave cents. Your money viii be cheer
fully refunded if you do not find them

SEPARATE STALL FOR COWS
Youngsters Prevented From crowding
and Nursing Each Others Ears
Expense Is Small.

A Wisconsin farmer, who had a
number of calves. thought it might be
we'll to find some means Of keeping
them separate while feeding. They
pushed and pulled and 'nursed" each
others ears so'that the stronger ones
were we'll fed while the weaker went
hungry. Steel stanchlons were an ex-
pense which he did not feel was justl-
fed with his small herd.
At little cost and with small labor
he built wooden stalls to which the
calves could be tied while feeding.
Board partitions separate them more
completely from one another, and in
dividual earthenware bowls, which fit
into a wooden frame, form separate
feeding devices which may be easily
renewed and cleaned.

LETS CO." SOLDIER SLOGAN
Expert Declares the Phrase, So Popu-
lar With the Troops, Did Much
70 Keep Up Morale.

The most Inspiring and, at the same
time, the most popular slogan used by
our troops during the World war Is
embraced In the unpretentiOus words
Lets Co" in the judgment Of Col.
Edward L. Munson, chief Of the morale
branch, general star Of the army.
Colonel Munson said:
my conviction on this subject-a
subject that is Of real Importance to
students Of military morales based
on the almost unanimous verdict Of
those who served with troops, re-en-
forced by the judgment Of many who
have looked at the question from 9TH
er angles. The appeal Let's Go COM
bines all the necessary psychological
elements of a military slogan.
"The slogan contains no word Of
command, no stern admonition, it does
not impose itself upon the will of the
hearer. 1t calls rather for companion
ship, for voluntary action and contri-
button on the part Of the soldier, for
concerteN movement prompted by
mutual desire.
My analysis may not be correct
one, but correct or not, 1 am certain
that Let's Co was used spontaneous
ly under all circumstances and always
with an encouraging response. Other
slogans were adopted from time to
time by various contingents of the ex-
peditionary forces and units serving in
this country, but none Of them quite
filled the place of the one now under
discussion. Where do we go from
hereP was not an unusual sentence
during the war and eye-witnesses tell
us that the song by that name was
sung quite cheerfully as the transport
Tuscania sank into the waters of the
British channel When do we eatP
who won the war? and Where are
the shipsT were three sentences many
times repeated by American soldiers,
but they were usually used in a satir-
ical vein and formed an outlet for the
distinct and individual humor of our
troops, but for everyday use, in rest
or battle, the slogan Let's Co stands
foremost as the strongest stimulus to
mind and hence to bodily effort"
