restored to health.
Catarrh of the throat is not only an
annoying disease of itself, but it ex-
poses the victim to many other dis
eases. We are constantly breathing
into our threats numerous atmos-
pheric germs. Disease germs of all
sorts. This cannot be avoided. If
the throat is healthy the system is
protected from these poisonous
germs. But if the throat is raw and
punctured with numerous little ul-
GERS, by catarrh, then the disease
germs have easy access to the system.
Keep the throat well and clean.
This is the way to protect yourself
against contagious diseases. Gargle

ills of Life" sent free by the Peruna
Co., Columbus, Ohio.
Mr.. Barnes says: II had throat
trouble and had three doctors treat
ing me- All failed to do me any
good, and pronounced my health gone.

using four bottles can say I was en-

Allies Quit Fighting; Turkey
Gets Acknowledgements
Scott and Brave Com
panions Perish
BY JOHN J. BREEN.

TAR. rumOrs of war, suffra-
" gette outrages, assassina-
tons, aviation fatalities and
the deaths of Captain Scott
and four Of his antarctic explorers
made up the burden of the dismal
news from abroad in the year that is
at an end Among the more cheerful
tidings were the celebration of the
twenty-fifth anniversary Of the Access
sion Of Emperor William and the we'd
ding Of Princess Victoria Louise of
Prussia and Prince Ernst August of
Cumberland.
For months the fight, or, rather Sc
ries OF fights, between the allies and
Turkey occupied the attention of all
Europe, and for time it was feared
that some of the great powers would
become involved. After they had
soundly trounced Turkey the allies fell
to quarreling among themselves. Fol-
lowing the signing of a peace pact in
London Roumania invaded Bulgaria.
and then the allies, like Kilkenny
cats, began to mix 1t up among them
selves. Turkey viewed with Ill con-
cealed glee the fine old row that start
ed among her former foes. All during
the war with the allies Turkey insist
ed that she be permitted to hold
Adrianople. Finally, when the allies
ceased quarreling among themselves,
Turkey gained her point and was
awarded Adrianople While as yet no
hnal adjudication of the boundary lines
has been signed. there has for months
been a cessation Of hostilities, and the
powers have breathed easier. At one
time the peace Of entire Europe was
threatened by the pugnacious smaller
countries.
Early in the year the British house
of commons passed the home rule bill
for Ireland. This result was attended
by Joyous outbursts in the south Of
the country and hostile demonstrations
In the north. Sone days later the
British house of lords rejected the bill
by a vote of 1926 to 60 This result
had been looked for, but it was said
that eventually Ireland would get home
Fule.
Early in February were started the
events In Mexico which have caused
more than their share of woe in the
troubled republic and which threaten

cut quarter Of n yard wide and IL
yard or more in length. They are
lined with satin and gathered in at the
ends, where tasseed ornament
makes the finish. They fasten about

Crocheted, passamenterie or bead
buckles and ornaments are used on
them.
Muffs are barrel shaped and made
over beds of down or wool batting.

The Boy Problem.

Where is my boy tonight? You
are his father or mother, and if you
desire to lay your hand upon your
boy within five minutes any night
would not know where to find him.
He's on the street somewhere or
at the railroad depot jumping on
freight trains, but just where, with
whom, in what engaged, what plot
ting or what executing for the
shrewder ones who plot for him,
you could not tell for the life of
You. He has good home and he
ought TO be there at night He de-
sires to be somewhere else with, the
boys, and you lack. the morals cour-
age to insist that he shall be- where
he should be. You hope that he will
escape the pitfall, but you know that
chances are against him, Why don't
you do your boy the kindness to
keep him home nights? The time will
come when he will thank you for it
or reproach you for not doing it.
