Deafness Cannot Be Cured

by local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
There is only one way TO cure deaf
ness. and that is by constitutional
remedies. Deafness Is caused by an
innamed condition of the mucous lin
ing OF the Eustachian Tube. When
this tube is infamed you have a
rumbling sound or imperfect hearing,
and when it is entirely closed, Deaf
ness is the result, and unless the in
flammation can be taken out 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 in
famed condition of the mucous sur
faces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars
for any case OF Deafn>~s (caused by
catarrh) that cannot be cured by

UNIQUE METHODS IN THE
UNIVERSITY OF AhERSFOORT

Amsterdam, July pond
ence Of the A gociated Press Prob
ably few people outside Holland have
heard Of the University of Amers-
foort," which, although only few
months old embraces on its faculty
some of the most distinguished Bel
gian scientists and scholars. 1t is
unique among educationa, institutions
In that its professors establish their
own chairs" choose their own sub
jects. and treat them as they wish.
They are bourd by no official rules
and harassed by no traditions. The
student enjoys similar freedom. He
undergoes no admission examination,
chooses his own courses of study and
completes them whenever he thinks
he has had enough.
Professors and students are mem
bers of the Belgian refugee colonies
in Holland. After the fall Of Ant,
werp. large number of Belgian
troops crossed the Dutch frontier and
were !nterned at Amersfoort for the
duration of the war. The folly OF
keeping together large body OF men
with nothing TO occupy their time or
TO break the monotony o. their daily
life was at once realized. Professor
Shrijnen of the University of Utrecht
made an appeal to refugee Belgian
professors, and in January the first
term of the University of Amersfoort
was opened with a hundred students
enrolled The first course offered was
in Pedagogy, Inder Professor Collard
of the University of Louvain.
To the enterprise thus launched
both Belgian and Dutch professors
have offered their services generously
The originality of the idea tempted
many of them. and gradually the stu
dent body has been xtended.

four a. m. to six p. m. without giving
