CUT THIS OUT
OLD ENGLISH RECIPE FOR CATARRHAL
DEAFNESS AND HEAD
NOISES.

II you know someone who is troubled
with head noises. or Catarrhal Deafness. cut
out this formula, and hand 1t to them, and
you will have been the means Of saving some
Door sufferer perhaps from total deafness.
Recent experiences have proved eonelusively
that Catarrhal Deafness. head noises, etc.
were the direct cause Of constitutional dis
case and that salves, sprays, inhalers. etc.,
merely temporiEe with the complaint and
seldom, IL ever, effect q permanent cure. This
being so. much time and money has been
spent of late by a noted specialist In per-
pecting a pure. gentle, yet effective tonic
that would quickly dispel all traces Of the
catarrhal poison from the system. The ef-
feetive prescription which was eventually
lief that deafness will soon be extinct, Is
given below in understandable form, SO that
anyone can treat themselves in their own
home at little expense.
Secure from your druggist OF. Psrmint
Double Strength, about 76c worth. Take
this home and add TO II 4 pint Of hot water
and 4 ozs. Of graduated sugar; stir until dis
solved. Take one tablespoonful four times 4
day.

OF the throat. are other symptoms that
show the presence Of catarrhal poison, and
which are often entirely overcome by this
cfficaeious treatment. Nearly ninety per cent
Of ali ear troubles are directly caused by
catarrh therefore. there must be many peo-
pie whose hearing can be restored by this
simple home treatment. :.
Every person who is troubled with head
noises, catarrhal deafness, or eatarrh In any
form, should give this prescription . trial.

Omaha Uni Girls "Rassle" With
The High Cost of Living Problem

The girls have also asked the analy-
tical geometry class to help in this
time Of need. No ono probably ever
dreamed that such a subject would ever
be so closely connected with the high
cost of living, but it is fact that
fully dozen plottcrs are making
drawings for the school cooks. They
are watching the markets and making
charts showing the cost of certain
foods between definite dates. The
foods taken are the same as the ones
taken by the chemists. The plotters
say that the law governing the graphs,
the law of supply and demand, is not
as consistent as the geometric laws,
as its properties change from day to
day, or even from hour to hour.
This work will continue until
Thanksgiving. Turkeys are among the
list, but only as a novelty, because
they will be too dear for the average
man this year. The whole school is
anxiously awaiting the report of the
food investigators, ,.t.

The home economics girls Of the
University OF Omaha are literally in
distress because of the continually in
creasing cost of foods, The problem
of arranging scientific diets with a
reasonable amount of money has be-
come such a hard task that they can
no longer do it alone. So they have
enlisted the aid OF the chemistry and
mathematics departments.
The young chemists Of the school
are Analysing number Of staple
foods in order to make detailed re-
port to the girls on values. Among
the foods tried are beans, potatoes,
-four, rice, corn and other cereals. As
a result of these experiments the girls
may issue kind Of proclamation in
which they endorse rice and corn as
daily foods in order to keep the cost
of living down, even though the cost
of foods soar. The. new diets will be
tried in the school and in the homes
of the experimenters.

Indians Are Given
Deeds to Farms

Sioux Falls, S. D., Nov. l6.-Elabo-
rate ceremonies attended the delivery
of fifty SissetoH Sioux Indians OF
deeds to their lands by the govern
ment The government was repre-
scented by Major James Mclaughlin,
the veteran Indian Inspector The de-
livery of the deeds gave the fifty In
dams the full citizenship rights. The
shooting of the last arrow ceremony
was used in delivering the deeds to
the Indians.
The Sisseton Indians have been di-
vided into three classes for citizenship
purposes by Agent Mossman, in
charge Of the agency. The fifty In
dams just made citizens stood first
in these classes, they being pro-
nounced the most competent to han
die their lands and business affairs
without the assistance of the Indian
agent. or the government.
The members of Class No. 2, who
did not develop the necessary quail
fcations, have been given another trial
and will try to make good so they
can receive their deeds and their full
rights as citizens next year. 1t is es-
timated that about 200 Indians have
a place in this class and may have the
qualifications necessary to entitle
them to be made citizens next year.
The members of Class No. 3are re-
garded as being permanently incom-
petcnt, and it is doubtful il they wl;s
ever advance enough TO entitle them
to citizenship rights. The issuance Of
the deeds to the fifty Indians will
mean that fifty additional tracts of
land heretofore not listed as taxable
now will be added to the taxable prop
erty OF Roberts county. The addition
of other tracts of Indian land as the
Indians become citizens eventually
will reduce the tax rate in Roberts
county
