Calotabs Help Nature
To Throw Off a Cold

Millions have found in Calotabs a
most valuable aid in the treatment
of colds. They take one or two tab
let's the first night and repeat the
third or fourth night if needed.
How do Calotabs help Nature
throw off cold? First, Calotabs are
one of the most thorough and de-
pendable of all intestinal eliminants,
thus cleansing the intestinal tract of
the germ-laden mucuS and toxineS.

HOW 1T HELPS WON

VINO takes Cardu1:
Women who are rundown, weak

ficient strength from the food they
eat.-Thousands and thousands have
found that Cardui increased their ap-
petite, improved 2 their digestion,
thereby promoting better nourish-
ment and the consequent strengthen
ing of the whole system.
And women who have suffered
from functional pains of menstrual
ton have found that, by taking Car
dui just before and during the per-
iods, this purely vegetable sedative
and antispasmodic seemed to save
them much discomfort This action
of Cardui is highly esteemed because
the relief credited to it comes in an
entirely beneficial way. Cardui is
purely vegetable; nothing in it to be
afraid of-(Adv).

 Plans for a progressive confer. ence, similar to that held here in 1890, are scheduled to Do announced next week by Sen. Robert M. La Toilette, co-leader of the progreg- sive party of Wisconsin. New Deal strategists refuse to discuss for publication their hopes for that conference. But it iS evident in Washington that they expect full throated endorsement of the Roose- velt- Garner ticket, along with sev- eral recommendation for making the New Deal bigger and better.
 Whether that endorsement will he sufficient to protect New Deal political pastures against Lennke will depend somewhat upon next weeks developments in Cleveland. pr. Francis E.

 The Townsend meeting may be- come the medium of left wing political mergers. It will afford an opportunity for Townsendites to endorse Lemke, who already is backed by Father Charles E.

emerRency conditions in 2oe co,in- ties tn Missouri, Oklahoma, South Carolina, Tennessee, Virginia, Mon- tana, Wyoming, North Dakota and South Dakota. The drought map revealed . pear-Shaped area bllS- tered with parched land and with- cred crops, less extensive than the drought of 1884 but more devestat- ing in the emergency" counties than the one of two years ago. The greatest damage, according to one Iowa authority, Enete0rologist charles D. Reed, has been from heat rather than lack of moisture.
 Temperatures Fell Dene
 Temperatures hovered around 100 degrees yesterday. The riaximuns were below the average of th day bfore, but the heat spread across . wider area. Davenport, Ia, report cd l0l, Lexington, Ky, iO6, Huron. 6. D., l02, Terre Haute, Ind, i07, Faribault, Minn., lO4. One Chica- go suburb, Melroge Park, reported an unofficial ij0.

D. thuhderstorms spread across the Southern tip of Lake Michigan. Rain and wind smashed down trees and shredded corn leaves near Car- terville, Duquoin and Newton, Ill.,, and Indianapolis, Ind. A similar storm struck Columbus, Miss. Light ming at Indianapolis added two more victims--Max Schulz, %, and Chester Burns, l6--to the weather death toll which approached 200 for the last six days.
 Weather Predictions
 Almost without exception, the weather forecast for the East was flair and warmer" Fair weather was forecast for the middle-West with apparently no break in tenn peratures.
 Farmers protected their livestock and poultry from the sun; . farmer in Warsaw, Ind, said his hogs were dying from the heat. Lafayette, Ind, officials said . highway cx- banded and burst from the sun. Wisconsin, Minnesota and Michigan conservation officials warned that the drought has made forests high- ly inflammablc. Foresters already are fighting fires in the black hills of the Dakotas.
 Intense interest of grain exchang- es in drought conditions was height- ened by reports that food prices may boom as a result Of impending scarcity. Indiana farmers asked permission to increase milk prices one cent Q quart. Charles Dinecn, Wisconsin milk cooperative official, said production has dropped % pounds on every farm since Sunday.
 Although they have been assured there will be no scarcity of wheat, traders maintained boom-time grain prices; wheat closed one to five cents higher on the Chicago ex- change. Cotton futures stimulated by the government crop report rose more than @ . bale. Michigan raw beans advanced AS cents. Receipts of 12,000 head at Chicago stock yards indicated fear of Q cattle feed shortage.
