Deafness Cannot BE Cured

by local applications. as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
There is only one way to cure deafness
and that is by constitutional remedies,
Deafness is caused by an intlamed
condition of the mucous lining of the
Eustachian Tube. When this tube is
inflamed you have rumbling sound
or imperfect hearing, and when it is
entirely closed, Deafness is the result,
and unless the inflammation can be
taken cut and this tube restored to
its normal condition. hearing will be
destroyed forever; nine cases out of
ten are caused by Catarrh. which is
nothing but an intiamed condition of
the mucous surfaces.

TIGERS ARE BACK
 IN THE CAME Baseball Strike in the Am erlcan League Has Been

TO REINSTATE COBB

Philadelphia, Pa, May 20.-A score or more of sun tanned Athletics calling themselves the '.T. A. R. and grin ming all over their smooth faces, pull ed out of this city at S:35 o'clock to- night with the remark, Just watch us.''
 ''T, A. R. undoubtedly needing translation, ''Tigers of American Rev olution, otherwise the Detroit base ball club of the American League which has been on strike since it's star outfielder, Ty Cobt, has been under suspension.
 The strike is off. The Detroit boys all but Cobb-Were heading when they left here for Washington, where they will play tomorrow the used-to- be- outlaw Senators and they will not go storming to Japan and other points far distant, but will remain right in their old league and will play out their season and live up to their con- tracts and not smash up big league baseball in general.
 The players who stuck by Cobb when he was laid off for punching a New York spectator, who lnsulted him, and refused to play after he was punished, reached an agreement to- day with President Navin, of their club, and President Johnson of their league. It was a compromise and sub stantial on these terms.
 Cobb is to be reinstated and take his place in the Detroit outfield within short time perhaps two weeks, at least no longer than may be necessary to uphold the dignity of the American Leagues president.
 The striking Athletes personally are not to suffer the fines which the league will inflict upon them These will probably be $100 per man and will be paid out of President Nayin' s own pocket
 A definite arrangement is to be made whereby a ball player need not be made to tolerate vile abuse from spectators who may be aggrieved against him or may have bet on the opposing club. This arrangement will either be a rule compelling the own CTS of various clubs to have their grandstands and bleacners patroled by uniformed officers, who will eject offenders, or a rule compelling the umpires to cause the throwing out Of the obnoxious fan.

League Directors
 Tender designations
Say They Will Not Serve On Baseball Board With District Attorney Nix0n-Mr. Nixon Says He
 Will "Stick.''

President Harry Hanf, of the City Baseball League has received the jeiH,l resignation of all but one dl- rector. who were elected week ago when the League was organized for the purpose of hIaving some good baseball n this city this season. The resignaiions were forwarded Presi dent Hanf by the directors, who stated that they would net serve on thc Beard with District Attorney T. Havis Nixon, who was elected a director aI the same time. President Hanf has refused to accept the resignations thus far, but it is expected that he VII have to declare the offices va can't, as the directors are emphatic in their statement that they will net serve On the board with MT. Nixon.
 Mr. Hanf will probably put the mat ter up to the various club managers in an effort to reconcile the retiring directors and with a view to restoring 'sorder" within the ranks of The City League, which has started out under most suspicious conditions.
 Mr. Nixon was informed of the ac tion of the other directors recently and stated that he would not resign, but that the other directors could do so if they saw fit. The action of the directors in resign'ng from the beard was prompted by the recent ac.ion of District Aottorney Nixon in bring ing about the arrest of a number of prominen- residents of this city on a gaming charge, it being alleged that they had violated the law in playing poker in their homes.

WILL CAPTURE
 JACK TIE SHOOTER
MASS MEETING OF CITIZENS HELD AT LITTLE ROCK TO TAKE
 IMMEDIATE ACTION.
People Ire in Fear Gi Mysterious Men Who is Invading Homes
 Child is Murdered.

Little Rock, May 20.-The citizens of Little Rock are determined to rid the city of the nightly menace of Jack the Shooter,' who has terror ized the people during the last few weeks. At least twenty-five burglar ies, assaults, attempts and house break ings are charged to the mysterious elusive criminal since the first week in February The series eliminated Sunday morning in the Wanton mur- der of a nine-months old child as it slept Eeside it's mother, and this has aroused the citizens to vigorous ac- ton.
 A mass meeting of business men, professional men, preachers, day lab orers, and capitalists was held Mon day afternoon in the city hall at the call of the mayor. Volunteers were called upon and over two hundred signed the rolls, expressing their will lingness to serve as patrolmen upon the call of the chief of police. It is planned to have the men work in their own neighborhoods as much as possible. There will be two shifts, one before and one after midnight. Every crime so far has occurred af- ter midnight.
 The police have not been able to get very good description of the fiend. It is generally agreed that he is white man, of rather slight build, and that he is familiar with the city. Taking the temperament of the vol unteer patrolmen, it is evident that the miscreant, should he fall into their hands, will have short shrift.
 Chief Cogswell thinks there are two men doing the work. The details of the different crimes are very simi- lar. Theft does not appear to be the primary object of the attacks. The homes are usually entered after l o'clock in the morning, and the at tention of the marauder is usually turned upon the women. When they are awakened usually by his hand on their faces, he threatens to shoot 1T they give the alarm. They usually scream, and he always fires upon them. Several have been wounded, and the child was killed at the Coul- ter home. Two hours later he at tempted to attack Mrs M. M. Han kins, daughter of ex-Goy. T. J, Churchill, in her room, and fired upon MT. Hankins as he grabbed his plS- tol and attempted to protect his wife. No one was injured.

Dear Mrs. thompson: I am a girl
os seventeen and am n junior in high
school. without being one of the first
of my class. ] have aiways stood well
in my studies. and have enjoyed the
social side as much as any girl could.
The other day my Latin teacher, whom
supposed was ford of me, surprised
me by accusing me OF being butter
fly. She said she couldn't see how j
kept such friends as three or four she
mentioned, and she made me feel as
though ] were conspicuous and dis
liked l cried myself to sleep that
night. but when | went back to school
next day, felt she had misjudged me
and that the boys and girls did like
me. I felt, too, that 1 was not in
ferior to any of the girls whose
friendship she wondered / could keep.
Why do you think she talked this
way? And what shall I do?
E. r. r.
The kindliest and most sensible ad-
vice, IL couched in seemingly harsh
terms. is hard to accept even when
justified Your teacher may have been
unduly severe. but have you, in your
grief and resentment, asked yourself
whether or not she may have been
right. in some measure at least? Have
you been humored and spoiled at
home? Have you been allowed to do
about as you pleased? IL you have
and If you possess a vigorous per-
sonality, is there not cnance that
YOU may have made Just a few mis-
takes? Don't worry about mistakes
heed their lesson and profit by them.
Don't think that you are regarded as
unpopular Girls of your type are
generally more popular than serious
girls.
Dear Mrs. Thompson: % How can
I wash ecrue curtains so that they
will not fade or become streaked? (2)
How can / stretch curtains so the
edges will remain straight and not be-
come notched where fastened?
A SUBSCRIBER.
"a Wash them in ivory soap and
warm water and 60 not have the
starch too hot. Stretch them as soon
as starched. If curtains are streaked
it is probably due to the sun fading
them while hanging in folds, rather
than the washing.
CD 1t is hard to stretch curtains
without forming the scallops. but this
can be obviated to some extent by
dampening and pressing the edges af-
ter removing from the frames.
Dear Mrs. Thompson: Can you tell
me something simple and attractive
to serve for an afternoon affair of
twelve girls? E. NJ. L.
A salad with sailed or cheese waters
would be appropriate. For salad
let me suggest the following: On each
plate arrange two or three attractive
leaves of tender head lettuce and a
slice of Hawaiian canned pineapple.
Place on the pineapple a slice of the
white cream cheese such as comes in
tinfoil. and on this the salad dressing.
