In France With Military Message.
The world's moHt famouH pigeon,
I which lost a leg flying through a bari
rage* In Franco with military information
for the United States army died
| today December <? at Honolulu,

' was many months old he was braving
I barrages in carrying Important mes|
sages.
j He was wounded while flying from a
j frontline dugout to headquarters.
Men below saw a shell exploding
near him. The concussion tossed the
pigeon upward, then he fell. Ah the
! gallant bird drdpped he struggled to
j regain altitude. Finally, he did so,
| and reached headquarters covered
'with blood, his fcathors ripped out
and- one foot gone.

How CaLatabs Help Nature
To Tlirow Off a Bad Cold
Millions have found In Calotabs a I
most valuable aid in the troatment I
of colds. They take one or two tablets
the first night and repeat the i
third or fifth night If needed.
Hoto do Calotabs help Nature
throw off a cold? First, Calotabs Is
one (if the most thorough and dependable
of all Intestinal ellminants,
thuy cleansing the ln'-stlnal tract of
the germ-laden mucus and toxlnes.
Second, Calotabs arc diuretic to the
kidneys, promoting the elimination
of cold poisons from the system. Thus
Calotabs serve the double purpose of
a purgative and diuretic, both of
which are needed in the treatment
of colds.
Calotabs are quite economical;
only twenty-flve cents for the family
pnekage, ten cents for the triad
package. (Adv.)

MULE8 OF THE SIERRAS
(CJ. H. Law in Our Dumb Animals) j
To the coffee planter of the Vene- j
zuclun Cordillera de los Andes the i
mule is a valuable ally. Working
throughout the year on the "haciendas,"1
the animals are partIc-.:la:'.y j
useful during the harvest scis-y-tJ
when they transport the garnered
crop to the main dispatching points.
Throughout the Sierras mule-trains
are to, be met with, laden with produce.
The drivers of these trains,
picturesque fellows, handle their
charges with great skill, urging them
along with rough yet kindly cries.
In the remote fatnesses of the upper
heights, where .the rarifled atmosphere
makes sustained physical effort
extremely arduous, the dwellers rely
to a great extent upon mountain-bred
mules when traveling from place to
place. Rugged trails traverse these
lonely regions, leading from the great
jungles of the lower levels up through
the sparse shrub patches marking the
limit of the timber-line, to the desolate
wind-swept passes, culminating
in the Pass of El Paramo del Mucuchies,
where the Trans-Andean road
crosses the crest of the range at 13,511
feet above sea-level. Beyond the
next valley rise the mighty peaks of
the Sierra de Santo Domingo, capped
with everlasting snow and ice, the
cradle of bitter winds which rake the
high exposed points.
In these unfrequented areas, the
traveler will often journey for hours
on end without encountering a single
soul, his animal picking iu way carefully
along the desolate trails, bordered
in season by blight Alpine flowers.
The mules of this region possess
great stamina and powers of endurance,
enabling them to withstand to
a remarkable degree the Tatigning effects
of the rarifled atmosphere and
the steep trails over which they travel.
Their coats are thick and shaggy,
serving as protection against the icy
winds which sweep the exposed
ridges, and the damp cloudbanks that
envelope the heights for hours and
even days at a time.
The mountain man looks after his
animal with care; for away from the
Trans-Andean road, it is his sole
means of transportation; and he may
be seen clad in a thick "poncho"?a
blanket-like capo?with a vjoollen
helmet covering his head and most
of bis face, pursuing his solitary way
amid an awe-inspiring grandeur of
scenery.
