One Calotab on the tongue at bed time with a swallow of. water, that's all. No salts, no nausea no the slightest interference with yom eating, pleasure or work. Next morning your cold has vanished anu your entire system i3 purified and refreshed. Calotabs are sold only in original sealed packages; price thirty-five cents.

AMERICAN MONEY SAVING LIVES (Continued from page 1) revolc. . "This gave the Bulgars the op portunity to perpetrate a new in famy. Sending their troopt. against the women, they took as prlb- oners a large number of wive, mothers and sisters who had pro tested against their men being taken as Bulgar soldiers. Then thest. wives and mothers were formed in ranks; placed ahead of the Bulgar divisions, and in this battle order with the Sefoian women in front as a screen for the Bulgar troops these divisions pushed against the main body of the xevollting peas- Though North Carolina produces a good crop of sweet potatoes each year, a conservative estimate places the loss due to poor storage facilities at 50 per cent of this crop. Also, through lack of storage facilities prices for pota toes are lowered at digging time by the dumping of more potatoes than the market can care for. This pro duces a shortage from the latter part of March until the last of July when the early crop begins to make its ap pearance. For this reason the Divi sion of Horticulture in co-operation with the National Department of Agri culture is now conducting a campaign to have as many storage houses built in North Carolina as possible. The sweet potato crop this year will be the . largest in the history of the country. North Carolina will produce1 the largest crop in the history of the State, and will thus provide a surplus of a product that will be needed to take the place of other foods which have become high and scarce, owing to the war conditions. With this large crop on hand the question has arisen as to the best methods to save all of, the crop harvested. Experience has proven that storage houses are more to be depended upon than the old style earthen banks. These houses are wooden, hollow-wall structures with a special system of ventilation, and may be constructed o hold varying amounts from 500 to 50,000 bushels of the roots at one time. They have proven very suc cessful in keeping the potatoes, hav ing been tried both in an experimen tal and practical way, at the Pender branch station. At this station it was found that the loss in the houses was practically nothing, while a third of the roots were lost when placed in the old-style banks. In some cases the whole bank has been a total loss, or 20 per cent of the potatoes injured from the standpoint of marketable stock. Many large growers over the State have, already manifested much inter est in these houses, jnany having built new houses or remodeled their old ones. The Division of Horticulture is sup plying, upon application, plans for building the houses, and will give advice in the erection and operation of them. It is estimated by Mr. R. G. Hill of the Horticultural Division that the building of houses advocated by his division will mean a saving to the farmers or the community, and will also mean that needed food will be saved to supply the market that now cannot be supplied during every year from March to July. Extension Circular No. 30, "The Storage of Sweet Potatoes," and Farmers' Bulletin No. 847, "Potato Storage and Storage Houses," will be supplied free of charge, 'an long as the supply lasts, to all making applica tion. F. H. JETER, Agri. Editor, Agricultural Extension Service. Raleigh1. Nov. 21. Governor Bicketis says that letters being re ceived from many parts of the state indicate to him that parents and ! wives of many of the soldiers in service do not understand the sys tem of allotments and allowances that are provided for those depen dent oil a soldier in the service. In the first place the government, ex pects the soldier to set aside at least $15 of his $30 salary pei month for his family, if married, and for any dependents in the cast of those not married. The govern ment fully supports the soldier, feeding, clothing, and doctoring hiiu and that he needs only pin money and $15 per month is considered am ple for his personal needs, i In addition to these allotments from the wages of the soldiers, the government makes additional allow ances to dependents as follows. $15 for wife and no child; wife and one child, $25; if wife and several children, $32.50 for wife arid two children and $5 for each additional child; if no wife but one child, $5 per month, two children, $12.50; I three children, $20; four children, ! $30 with $5 per month for each ad ditional child. As to parents, the schedule is $10 for one parent; $20 for two dependent parents, each grand child, brother or sister and additional parent dep'endent $5. I The governor says that it will be seen from this that the total pro vision made : is $25 for one parent; j j $30 for wife; $35 for two parents; ; $40 for wife and one child; with $5 per month for each additional child. : For wife and one child and parents j the government pays $45 per montn plus $15 that can come out -of tht. soldier's wage. The governor wants ! the widest possible publicity given ; to this phase of the care that the government is assuming the families of soldiers in the service. I mrmr J mm mm mm m mm m.

The third $1,000,000 will be used mainly for reconstruction work in Serbia, in replacing bridges, roads, etc., which have been destroyed, so that Serbia, once resorted to its peo- pie, may be brought back, in part at least to its former conditions.
