CATARRHAL DEAFNESS CANNOT BE
Cl1RED

by local applications, as they a
not reach the diseased portion of
the ear. There is only n way to
cur catarrhal deafness, and that
is by constitutional remedy. CAT
srrhal Deafness is caused BY an i'm
famed condition of the mucous
lining of the Eustachian Tube.
When this tube is infamed you
have a rnmbling sound or imper-
feet hearing, and when it is en-
tirely closed, Deafness is the re-
suit. Unless the inflammation car.
be reduced and this tube restored
to its normal condition, hearing
will be destroyed forever. Many
cases of deafness are caused by
catarrh. which is an int1amed con
dition of the mucous surfaces.

A LAYMAN'S VIEW POINT.
From Lafayette Press:


\ Layman is worthy of the
closest study, not only by the
merchants, but the people of
this section as whole.
In my life time | have had
the opportunity to pay frequent
visits to a rather respectable
number of Louisiana towns. In
every one of them mine ears
have heard the common cutlery
Of the local merchants against
the mail order houses and it is
my positive conviction that the
loudest, the longest sustained,
the most bellyacheish voice in
this grand agony chorus is La
fayette's. Why?
1t is universally conceded
that there can be no effect with
out cause. And it is safe to
amplify that the greate::the ef-
feet, the greater must be- the
cause.
The outcry against the evil
Of mail-order buying is greater
in Lafayette than in other COM
munities of comparable size
Why is the evil greater in La
fayette? There's a reason
Our Lafayette merchants it
must be assumed. ignore the
cause behind the admittedly
immense volume of mail-or-
der trading done year in and
year out by the people Of their
tributary territory; else as
sensible bushes men they would
get busy and stop this ruinous
artcrial outflow Of precious,
home earned dollars. You, Mr..
Editor of course know as well as
| what this cause is: for as a
home newspaper man it is your
consecrated duty to study con-
ditions affecting the welfare
OF your community. But the
very nature of your calling,
while it makes you expert dag
nostician. Gisqualifies you as
disinterested adviser and pre-
scriber to the patients. the mer-
chants who are afflicted direct
~ NTH the mail order evil. The
remedy to destroy the cause
Of the evil must be applied
o.gh the merchants and no.
body else. While it is a very
simple remedy it is of such
nature thai | am sure you will
agree it will more likely be ac~
cepted if suggested by com
mon layman who is not even
remotely interested in any
newspaper.
Mr.. Herman Rosenthal, ad-
vertiSing manager for Sears,
Roebuck & Company in address
ing the American al club the
other day disclosed one Of the
methods by which that gigan-
tic mail order house extends its
trade. He said:
we have a bureau whose
duty it is to read each week the
country newspapers from all
over the country. There is not
a paper of the least consequence
IN our trade territory that our
bureau does not get (by indi-
rect subscription). This bureau
looks over these papers and
when we find a town that the
local merchants are not adver-
Using in the local papers we i'm
mediately flood that territory
with our catalogs and literature
and keep it flooded. It always
brings results, far in excess of
the same effort put forth in
territory where the locsl
merchants all the time use their
local papers,

1T has been demonstrated that as

been improved there has been a great
increase OF their business and CORE

ton and opportunities OF the rural

chard crops have been utterly wasted
because OF expensive and inadequate
facilities for marketing. This is one
OF the hard problems with which the
United States department of agricul-
ture is trying to deal through the
greatest experts In the land, and they
have found that the building of good
roads is essential to the success OF
their plans"

LOWER EXPENSE TO FARMERS
Good Roads Reduce Greatly Trouble
of Transporting crcSs to Market
-cs.se C Distress.

Before the war ia Europe affected
the rates at sea it cost the American
farmer more to haul bushel of wheat
nine and a half miles to the railroad
station for shipment than IL cost the
buyer to ship the same bushel OF
wheat from New York to Liverpool, q
distance of 1900 miles," according to
bulletin issued by the American
Highway association THE average
cost Of hauling ton Of farm produce,
or ton Of anything else, over the av.
erage country road is about twenty
three cents rlile; 70 y---s ago the
cost of the same service was II cents.
The cost of hauling over the railroads
is less than one-ninth as much as II
was 60 years ago. The cost of hauling
by railroad has almost reached the
vanishing points the cost of hauling
on the country roads has gone up as
the roads have gone down.
by careful calculation, Logan Wal
ler Page. director of the United States
office OF public roads, has reached the
conclusion that with wise and equita-
bic road laws and good business man.
agemen' it would be entirely practical
bic for the people to save themselves
on the two items of hauling and ad-
ministration the enormous sum of
$500, 100000 yearly. The railroads in
the United States carry about 900. 000,-
600 tons of freight annually and of
this vast tonnage at least 100000, 900
tons are hauled over the country roads
to the railroad station or to the canals
for shipment. The immense volume
of mining products aggregating mill
lions of tons is not included in this
estimate. but only the agricultural,
forest and miscellaneous products
hauled by wagon over the public roads,
nor is the cost Of hauling back and
forth between the farms and the mills.
"The main cause of agricultural dis
tress," says the bulletin, "a subject of
perennial alarm to popular favorites,
is not so much the wages of the work
ers or the infertility of the soil or the
prices of the products, but the enor-
nous drain of getting the stuff to
market, the waste of the roads in the
wear and tear of machinery, the sacri-
flee Of teams, the inefficiency of serv-
ice compelled by impossible highways.
Tributary to every market town or
railroad station there are what Mr.,
Page calls 'zcnes Of production
From the first of these zones all prod
ucts can be delivered to market at a
