 Two villages southwest of Lake Doiran, on the Macedonian front-Goobrdka and Laitsai-have been captured by the French. Elsewhere in this theatre fight ing is being done mainly by the artillery, although there is still infantry activity in the Cerna river region.

WHY MEN
ARE GROWING BALD

Thousands of men are growing balds every
day and don't know the reason why. Many of
them never expect to save even what hair Is
left.
This is indeed a pity, says a specialist, be-
cause badness usually comes from careless
ness and anyone who gives the scalp little
attention should always have an abundance of
good healthy hair. Dust and dirt help to
cause badness by clogging the pores in the
scalp and give the dandruff germs fertile
ground for breeding.
The treatment is very simple: Shampoo at
least once in ten days and destroy the dandruff
germs by applying frequently Partisan Sage, a
delightfully."- efficient preparation that A. A.
Howes Co. are now recommending as the
surest treatment to stop falling hair, to re-
move dandruff and to refresh and invigorate
the hair roots.
The cost of generous bottle of Partisan
Sage is very little and druggists everywhere
have been authorized to offer it with guaran-
tee of perfect satisfaction or money refunded

Catarrhal Deafness Cannot Be Cured

by local applications. as they cannot reach the
diseased portion of the There is only one
way to cure catarrhal deafness, and that is by
a constitutional remedy. Catarrhal Deafness
is caused by an infismed condition of the mu-
cous lining of the Eustachian Tube. When
this tube is inf1amed you have rumbling
sound or imperfect hearing, and when it
is entirely closed Deafness is the result.
Unless the inflammation can be reduced and
this tube restored to it's normal condition,
hearing will oe destroyed forever. Many cases
of deafness are caused by catarrh, which is an
il famed condition of the mucous surfaces.
