1"1HE planet Jupiter is the big
brother of our solar system.
- Our earth and the planets de-
scribed so far. Mercury. Venus
end Mars. have been rather trivial
affairs beside the sun.
But Jupiter, while failing TO APP
proach the magnifcence of the
sun. cuts rather a better figure
beside II.
There is less difference In size
between the sun and Jupiter than
there is between the earth and
Jupiter. The diameter of Jupiter
is eleven times that Of the earth.
The diameter OF the sun, however,
is ten times that OF Jupieter. or 10
times that of the earth.
Jupiter is 10000 miles in dame
ter. A rope that would reach
from the earth to the moon would
be too short to encircle Jupiter
at the equator.
Brilliant TO Eye.
Jupiter. when viewed with the
unaided eye, appears as slightly
pink-tinted starlike object. II is
usually more brilliant to the eye
than any planet except Venus.
The telescope reveals Jupiter as
a globe tiattened at the poles.
Jupiter is the fifth planet in
order from the sun. Its average
distance from the sun is 4s3 900, 600
miles. 1t revolves around the sun
in twelve years and rotates upon it's
own axis in ten hours.
Jupiter is so far from the sun

Calotabs, the Purified and

Doctors have found by experience
that no medicine for colds, coughs,
sore throat. and influenza 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 nauscaless ealo-
mel tablets called Calotabs, which are
free from the sickening and weaken
ing effects Of the o:d style caIomei.
Doctors also point out the fact that
an active liver may go a, long way
towards preventing Influenza aud
colds and is one Of the most i'm
nortant factors in enabling the pa
tient TO successfully withstand an
attack and ward of pneumonia.
