HOW DOCTORS
TREAT COLDS
AND THE FLU
First Step in Treatment Is Brisk
PurRative With Calotabs, the
Purified and Refined Calomel
Tablets That Are NauseaIess,
Safe and Sure.

Doctors have found by experience
that no medicine for colds, coughs,
sore throat and influence can be de-
pended upon for full effectiveness
until the liver is made thoroughly
active. That is why the first step in
the treatment is the new, nausealess
calomel tablets called Calotabs, which
are free from the sickening and weak
ening effects of the old style calomel.
Doctors also point out the fact that
an active liver may go a long way to-
wards preventing influenza and colds
and is one of the most important
factors in enabling the patient to
successfully withstand an attack and
ward off pneumonia.
One or two Calotabs 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, pleasure orr work. Next
morning your cold has vanished, your
liver is active, your system is plri.
fed, and you are feeling fine, with a
hearty appetite for breakfast. Cen
uine Calotabs are sold only in orig
ina! sealed packages. price thirty-fye
cents for the large, family package
ten cents for the small vest-pocket
size. (adv)

"The use of poison gases for the
destruction of insect pests is a field
in which comparatively little has
been done, but now that science has

"The chemical warfare service will
cooperate in this new warfare to the
fullest extent Of its ability. We
stand ready to turn over to the ma,
