ITALIAN CRISIS
Germans And Austrlsns Have Been
Ordered To Quit Italy
Immediately

Rome.-Germans and Austrisns who
reside in Italy have been advised by
their respective .consuls to leave the
country as quickly as possible.
II is reported here that so many
German military spies have entered
Italy that the general staff has chang.
ed its mobilization plans, because
there is reason to believe that secrets
hav been revealed.
The Giornale D'ltalia publishes an
interview with Gen. Francisco Pisto-
ia, deputy from Cremona, who said:
"Now the moment has come. it will
require a fortnight to gather an army
on the frontier in full war efficiency
and strategically displayed. Even ad-
mitting that concessions may be Of
fered, a show OF our force would per.
NIT diplomacy to speak loudly when
the country is in condition to have
its fist raised ready to strike hard" J"
After examining the situation Of the
Austro-German forces, General Pistoja
said that "the central empires cannot
afford to have behind them a million
first-line fresh troops ten days march
from Vienna"

Deafness Cannot Ba 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 infam- ed condition of the mucous lin ing, of the Eustachian Tube. When this tube is inflamed you have rumbling sound or imper. feet hearing, and when it is en- tirely closed, Deafness is the re- suit, and unless the inflammation can be taken out and this tube restored to it's normal condition, hearing will be destoryed forev- CT; nine cases out of ten are caused by Catarrh, which is nothing but an inflamed condi- tion of the mucous surfaces.
 We will give One Hundred Dollars for any case of Deafness (caused by Catarrh) that cannot be cured by Halls Catarrh Cure. TAKE HALLS FAMILY PILLS FOR CONSTIPATION.
