us from quoting the article entire,
which is from the Potter County

For her thu last few years have not

endured pain almost continually. Early
in the summer she made several trips to

was known She would not 90 again: for
the doctors TOLD her chat they coUld do no

Who loved her most, She has gradually
faded away, until death mercifully came
to re,ive her suffering.
Mrs. Hoover was born in Maine. ia
South Portland, about fifty years ago. In
the ate eighties she came to Potter oUn-

CATARRHAL DEAFNESS CANNOT BE
cIlRED

by local applications. as they can
not reach the diseased portion of
the ear. There is only one way to
cure catarrhal deafness, and that
is by constitutional remedy. Cat
srrhal Deafness is caused by an in
famed condition of the mucous
lining of the Eustachian Tube.
When this tube is infamed you
have a rumbling 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 inhamed con
ditlon Of the mucous surfaces.
Halls Catarrh Cure acts thru the
blood on the mucous surfaces of
the system.
We will give One Hundred Dol
lars for any case of Catarrhal
Deafness that cannot be cured by
Halls Catarrh Cure. Circulars

kArrKoAD UNDERGRADUATES

Looks as if railway preparedness"
were a good deal of fake.
Railroad officials have been claiming
that it would be easy to handle our troops
because hundreds of immigrant cars,
owing to the falling off of immigration,
coud be diverted to Uncle Sans special
service.
But cars are not all. there is to a railway
system.
A news item reads that the boys of
New York regiment were held in the stuffy,
sweaty cars IN the yards of the Delaware,
Lackawanna and Western railroad in
Hoboken from A As in the afternoon until
about 3 o'clock the next morning. (By the
way, this is one of the best paying roads in
the country
The excuse given by the railway officials
is that the mules to be entrained were lost
somewhere.
But this is not question of who lost the
mules.
Only the fact that the troops did not
move is important They lost enough time
in getting away to have lost battle, had
the country been in peril.
The event is not bit more creditab1e
than some of the failures of the railroads in
the Spanish war, and the officials have had
all the years since to learn in.
All railroad officials know that it takes
50 cars to move one regiment of infantry.
They know that it takes 195 cars which
require two miles of track, to move regi-
ment of artillery.
They know that to move an army of
$4,000 men, 1929 cars. are required. They
know how many cars and how much track
age it will take to move the 100000
pounds Of supplies required for such an
army every month
But what is the use of their figures if the
troops do not move?
And what is going to happen in Texas.
If our brave boys from all over the country
are dumped there to be transferred to some
OF the short lines-in some cases one track
lines-which lead to the Rio?

THE SCRATCH PAD
By THOMAS EWING DABNEY.

Hughes whiskers, Taft's avoidu-
pois, and Teddy's teeth will be a
mighty heavy load for the COP ele-
FAINT.
Only men with good teeth are ac-
cepted for the army, but If it is our
strategy to bite the Mexicans, we
think the Colonel ought to be in the
front rank.
The American people weren't in
quite a heroic enough mood to &c
cept Roosevelt. Neither can they
swallow imberger cheese.
In view Of the post-mortem talk Of
Germany and England after the naval
fight, it might be we'll If the war cen
sorship were made a little tighter.
Taft says he vim be willing to
speak for Hughes from the same
stump with Roosevelt, but where can
you find stump big enough.
The anti-preparedness newspapers
needn't get so excited over the unpre-
paredness of the militia; it is such
CUFF as they have been handing out
for 10, these many moons, that is
responsible for the wretched state Of
affairs.
The Montgomery Advertiser says
that publishing amateur poetry does
no harm. Maybe the average reader
doesn't read it, but what about the
poor lnotyper?
We are willing TO bet that the New
York guardsmen who were set to
work digging mesquite when the tenn
perature was 10 in the shade were
not too proud to fight, but DANCED
sight too tired.
| If the British continue their pres
ent conduct much longer, the Ger
mans will be writing another hymn
of hate.
Those loud shrieks come from Car.
rama, whose whiskers have been Sc.
verely pulled by Villa, the man he
saved from the United States.
Maybe the kaiser complained Il
President Wilson, in that submarine
letter, that the allies are exceeding
the speed limit in their drive.
Hughes viii find that the hyphe1
is mighty small stick with which t.
beat Wilson.
The Tilted lover doesn't commit sui
eide in watermelon season.

Old Looks?
az DR. V. NJ. PTERCFN

Persons suffering from too much
uric acid in their system frequently
look older than they should. They
age faster and the appearance of gray
hair or baldhead in early years is,
indeed, often sign Of uric acid. The
face appears lean and haggard, lines
and wrinkles appearing in young men
Or women.
The best way to combat this pre-
mature age and the obstruction to the
arteries and faulty circulation is of
the simplest: Drink plenty and CO.
piously of pure water between meals.
This will not make you fat, as it is
only the water taken with the meals
that fattens. Obtain at any drug
store small packge of anuric; which
is to be taken before meals, in order
to expel the uric acid from the sys-
TEN. The painful effects of backache,
lumbago, rheumatism, govt, due to
uric acid in the blood should quickly
disappear after treatment with anuric.
