FILTHY HABIT OF MIXERS
Practice Of WettiHg Hands With Milk
10 Liable to. Cause Cows Teats
to Chap In Winter.

Mixers should be allowed to milk
only with dry hands. The practice Of
wetting the hands with milk Is q filthy
habit and is liable to cause the cows
teats to chap in the winter time.
Milking should be done quickly and
thoroughly, with no violent jerking Of
the teats. After each COW Is MIXED
the milk should be removed Immediate
" to the milkhouse.

POLICE TOO BUSY TO GRAFT
New York Thinks It Is Cleared
Of Gunmen, Dopcrs and

The old days Of the police force,
when its reputation rested on the

graft was rampant seem to have

graft, but it is no longer possible for
an inspector to reign in the tenderloin

too busy to graft.
For instance, take the crusade
against the illegal sale and distribu-

For Catarrhal Deafness
and Head Noises

Here In America there is much suffering
from catarrh and head noises. American peo-
Pile would do well to consider the method en-
ployed by the English to combat this insid-
Gus disease. Everyone knows how damp the
English climate is and how dampness affects
those suffering from catarrh. In England
they treat catarrhal deafness and head noises
as a constitutional disease and use an inter-
nal remedy for it that is really very eff
cacious.
Sufferers who could scarcely hear watch
tick tell how they had their hearing re-
stored by this English treatment to such an
extent that the tick of a watch was plainly
audible seven and eight inches away from
either ear.
Therefore. if you know someone who is
troubled with catarrh. catarrhal deafness or
head noises, cut out this formula and hand
1t to them and you will have been the means
of saving some pood sufferer perhaps from
total Deafness The prescription can be
easily prepared at home for shout 76c and
is made as follows:
From your druggist obtain 1 OF. Of Par
mint Double Strength, about 75c worth
Take this home, and ada to It Y pint Of

Parmint is used in this way not only to
reduce by tonic action the inflammation
and swelling in the Eustachian Tubes. and
thus to equalise the air pressure on the
drum. but to correct any excess Of secretions
are usually remarkably quick and effective.
Every person who has catarrh In any form
should give this recipe trial and free them

Society of International Law
Makes Proposals to the
National Parliament.
AIMED AT THE BRITISH

Washington, Nov. l3.-Full details
of the recent proposal to the Brazilian
parliament by the Brazilian Society
Of International Law for the formation
OF a league Of neutrality to resist trade
restrictions and other encroachments
by belligerents we're made public to-
day through the official Gazette Of
the Brazilian parliament. The pro-
posed league would consist of all
present neutrals and would spring
automatically into effect whenever
another war broke out.
The society urges the government
to take immediate steps to secure the
cooperation OF all neutrals for the
declaration Of uniform series of nett
trial rights and for their enforcement.
The rights suggested are the I'M
munity of enemy goods under a metz
trail flag. complete liberty OF trade be-
tween neutral nations regardless of
ultimate destination, freedom from
any extra territorial actions such as
blacklisting, and the forbidding Of any
alien to inform a foreign government
