CATARRH OF THE THROAT
Is Liable to Produce Catarrhal Deafness

tial loss of hearing IS apt to be over
looked. A person may lose half his
hearing before he knows 1t.
For instance, suppose a man can
hear his watch four feet from the ear.
IL 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 ii 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 swapping sounds in the
ear, or n feeling of pressure in the
ear, but he Is not aware that he is
losing his hearing.
Testing the Hearing.
II is a good thing to test your hear
ing with 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 II both ears
are alike. If you find that you are
unable to hear the watch on both sides
alike and at n distance of four feet
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 of
Life" sent free by Peruna Co, Co
lumbus, Ohio. Persist in this treat
ment until n cure is effected.
The Best Way to Garsle.
Sometimes catarrh of the nasal
pharyngeal space will cause an ac-
cumulation OF secretions I'm 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 n long time
with the gargling to remove. Gar
Cling according to the proper method
will sometimes remove polypi or ade-
noids. and no surgical operation is
required.
In order to understand exactly what
is meant by proper gargling send for
a free copy of the Ills OF Life"
During the whole course OF gargling
Peruna must be taken according to
directions on the bottle.

eires can new obtain Peruaa Tablets

MINNESOTA SURE
WINNER AT MADISON
Illinois Working Hard for Chi
cago Game, But Victory
Seems Hers.

Chicago, Nov. l7.-GameS between
Illinois and Chicago on Stage field
and Wisconsin and Minnesota at Mad
lsOn, the results OF which may decide
the Western conference champion
ship, and the annual clash between
Yale and Harvard at Cambridge, will
command the attention of football
fans on Saturday.
Because Of the many npsets this
year, neither Illini or GOphers can
he sure of the victory which would re-
suit in double tie for the title now
held by Illinois. On past perform.
ances illinois and Minnesota should
win, but because of certain breaks in
a hard.fought contest the least error
in Judgment or tumble may upset
the ultimate result.
illinois will have to play all the
football it has been taught to beat
Chicago. The Maroons were defeated
decisively last Saturday by Minneso-
ia, but the condition of the playing
field must be taken into consideration.
Stages eleven was prepared to play
an open, running game, but the wet
field frustrated the Midway mentors
best laid plans. The running game
of the Maroons was handicapped and
Chicago had to rely on line plunges
and on tackle players.
Minnesota was prepared for this
style of attack and stopped every at
tempt sent at its forward wall When
the Maroon backs tried end runs with
occasional cut-backs through the line,
they invariably slipped and were eth
er nailed for losses Or held to short
gains. &
In the Chicago Illinois game condi-
tions will be different, Stage will
take every precaution.
Illinois, undoubtedly will play the
same style of game. and the team
which gets the breaks is the one that
will win. The doWn-staters have
shown improvement with every game,
and are sure to be in the best OF
shape. The game should be evenly
fought, with Illinois having the ad.
vantage.
All indications in the Minnesota
Wisconsin game point to Gopher
victory. Minnesota always has play
ed better football on Camp Randall
field than on it's own gridiron. Coach
Williams team has shown so much
improvement in recent games that ii
is hard to figure anything but a MINI
esOta triumph.
When Harvard meets Yale next Sat
urday at Cambridge it will be eastern
strategy against western, even more
so than was the case last Saturday in
the Princeton-Yale contest. This was
indicated in dispatch yesterday from
the east which said that Tom Shev-
lin, emergency coach for the Ellis,
stood ready to let loose bag full of
tricks which he took to New Haven
from the west and which he held out
on the Tigers.
The new strategy will be all Mime
sofa (Shevlin lives in Minneapolis),
and if the Bull Dog wins it will be
big boost for Western football. The
tactics will be in line with those
which defeated Chicago at Nlinneapo.
lis last Saturday. Coach Williams did
not have to show great deal in that
game, but it was reported that he had
a lot of trocks ready to spring should
it be necessary.
