FAVOR UTILITIES COMMISSION

We are glad to see that the Times Record of Fort Smith, in our opinion the best afternoon paper published in Arkansas, has committed itself in favor of the proposition of creating a utilities of public service commission to have jurisdiction over the various public service corporations doing bus mess in the state. The Times Record, after voicing it's approval, copies the editorial on this subject which re- gently appeared in the Arkansas Gazette and in which the Log Cabin Democrat was quoted.
 Here is an opportunity for the gen. eral assembly of 1915 to perform a real service to the state. It there is one abuse that needs correction in Arkansas it is that of permitting monopolistic corporations to fix their own rates, terms and conditions for supplying such necessary service in towns and cities as electricity, water, gas, telephones and street cars. The evil does not lie in the fact that these concerns are monopolies, for in most instances a competitive service would mean needless duplication and eco homie waste. But it cannot be ques- toned that there should be some trib- unal to which both consumers and corporations could appeal to arbi- trate their differences.
 We have suggested that with the necessary additions to the clerical force, these duties could be assumed by the present railroad commission. This, it would seem, would be the least expensive manner of creating such a board, but if the railroad commission is too greatly burdened with it's present work, it may be found best to form separate com mission.
 This is matter of detail which may be worked out later. What we
 should like to see now is the organf- zation of public sentiment in favor of the proposition to the extent that

CATARRH OF THE THROAT
 I. l;abIe 10 Produce Catarrhal Deafness

tial loss of hearing is apt to be overe looked. A person may lose half hE hearing before he knows it.
 For instance, suppose a man can hear his watch four feet from the ear. If he loses his hearing to the extent that he can only hear the tick of his watch two feet from the ear he may not suspect 1t at all. His hearing is good enough for ordinary purposes. He goes on without the slightest sus- picion that he Is losing his hearing. He may have ringing in the ear, or cracking and snapping sounds in the ear, or a feeling of pressure In the ear, but he is not aware that he IS losing his hearing.
 Testing the Hearing.
 It is a good thing to test your hear ing with a watch. First hold the watch against your ear, then move 1t gradually away from the ear and see how far away from the watch you can actually hear it tick. Try 1t on the other side and see if both ears are alike. If you find that you are unable to hear the watch on both sides alike and at a distance of four rect from the ear, you may know that deafness has already begun. You should begin taking Peruna at once. Gargle the throat with cold. strong salt water, as directed in the Ills or Life" sent free by Peruna Co, Co., lumbus, Ohio. Persist in this treat ment until a cure is effected.
 The Best Way to GarsIe.
 Sometimes catarrh of the nasal pharyngeal space will cause an ac- cumulation of secretions in the throat. that completely fill the space. Unless these secretions are promptly re- moved by frequent gargling polypi may be formed. Once formed the polypi or adenoids. as they are some times called. will require a long time with the gargling to remove. Gar gling according to the proper method will sometimes remove polypi or ade- holds. and no surgical operation is required.
 Tn order to understand exactly what is meant by proper gargling send Tor a free copy ofjthe '1lls of Life"
 During the whole course of gargiing Peruna must be taken according 10 directions on the bottle.
 People who object to liquid medi- eines can now obtain Peruna TabIsee.

Mrs wm. Bowman, R. F. D. 1, Coon Rapids, Iowa, writes:
 "Some time ago I wrote you about my little boy, Clarence, five years of age. He was troubled with his ears. They were very sensitive to the touch, and he was quite deaf at times. lie seemed to be worse after catching cold. I had taken him to doctors. but they did not seem to be able to relieve him. and I was very much afraid he would lose his hearing entirely He was getting more deaf every day
 T wrote to you for advice, and you prescribed Peruna. l began giving II to him, and can now say that he IS entirely cured He is now well and hearty and can hear perfectly"
 Catarrh Causes Many Diseases.
 Many diseases are caused by taking cold. A cold is very likely to settle in the nose, causing nasal catarrh. It may settle in the upper part of the throat, called the nasal pharyngeal space. In this space are two little tubes called custodian tubes, that lead to the middle ear.
 If the catarrh settles in the pharyn- zeal space it may follow the mucous membrane through the eustachian tubes into the middle ear. If 1t does 1t will cause noises in the ear, and later on be sure to cause deafness.
 Catarrh of the throat may follow the custodian tubes up into the mid flle ear without causing much concern on the part of the patient. The par

STEWART BAKER OUT
FOR PRINCETON TEAM

Princeton, Oct. l2.--In spite OF the
etin game on Saturday the Princeton
players were put through short
scrimmage this afternoon, and II was
most encouraging practice. The for
ward passes worked well and three
touchdowns were scored directly on
them. The scrubs were the opponents
OF the nrst team. which consisted of
about an equal number of first and
second string men. and they offered a
fair defense. but were handicapped on
the offense by the fumbling of their
backs.
Stewart Baker, who played quarter
back two years ago. and who last year
was shifted to the end. had his first
hard scrimmage today

badly In the Syracuse fray. He sus-
