W. Miller, vice president in charge of the Southern, with head quarters in Washington, D. C., while passing through Atlanta. The agreement is similar to that recently made by the Southern with its conductors and firemen, is retro active to March 1, and will run foi three years. The men are given an increase of approximately 5 per cent in the base rates of pay, with an additional bonus during the sec ond and third years, based on their success in decreasing expenses which are directly under their con trol. By saving the costs of such items as fuel consumption, delays and damage to freight, and accidents causing personal injuries, the men will share the resulting benefits with the railway. POLA NEGRI HAS GRIPPING STORY IN “SHADOWS OF PARIS” Pola Negri playing a vivid role in a big love drama with a happy ending is the unusual attraction at the Rylander today in “Shadows of Paris.” It is a drama of Parisian society and the underworld. As a French play it lifted Parisians out of their seats, rekindled emotions which they thought were worn out and stirred to its depth a city which boasts that has wrung every variety of excitement from life and that nothing but boredom remains. Audiences thrill with apprehen sion when Miss Negri, as the wife of the Minister of the Interior, is almost unmasked before her wealthy friends in her own drawing room during a brilliant affair. And while she crouches behind the flimsy cupboard in the Case Boule watch ing her husband, who is so close she could touch him. While the infat uated Fernand is playing out his little tragedy with Claire in her room,, and the burglars creep near er unsuspicious of the ring of police around them, one is kept on his toes with nervous anticipation. The cast of “Shadows of Paris” is a superlative one including such stars as Charles de Roche, Huntley SIGN’S YOU CAN BELIEVE IN If your breath is bad and you have spells of swimming in the head, poo: appetite, constipation and a general no account feeling, it is a sign your liver is torpid.

Church 'St. S HOW DOCTORS ' TREAT COLDS AND THE FLU First Step in Treatment Is Calo tabs the Purified and Refined Calomel Tablets That Are Nausealess, Safe and Sure. Doctors have found bv 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 th e treatment is the nausealess calomel tablets called Calotabs, which are free from the sickening and weakening effects of the old style calomel. Doctors also point out the fact that an active liver may go a long way towards preventing influenza and colds and is one of the most important factors in en abling the patient to successfully withstand an attack and ward off pneumonia. One or two Calotabs at bed time, with a swallow of water—that’s all. No salts, no nausea nor the slight est interference with your eating, pleasure or work. Next morning your cold has vanished, your liver is active, your system is purified, and you are feeling fine, with a hearty appetite for breakfast. Gen uine Calotabs ar e sold only in orig inal sealed packages, price thirty five cents for the large, family, package; ten cents for the small, vest-pocket, size.
