Following in the wake of the Mary
land legislature. bill to create a ma
tionsl board of censorship for all for
eign and domestic moving picture
films, will be introduced in Congress.
to prevent the importation and inter-
state shipment of immoral pictures
which was agreed upon by the House
Education Committee.
The measure, which WAS reported
this week, provides for a board of CEN
sors OF five members and a large num-
Der Of deputy censors to be located in
the larger cities of the country. All
films except those dealing with cur.
rent news would have to be submitted
TO censors before they could be reless-
ed. Special permits would be provid-
ed for the temporary release of news
films, subject to recall in case the
board decided they were improper.
Shippers of improper films would be
punished by fines ranging upward to
$1,000.
ga fee of 50 on each original film and
so cents on each reprint would be as
sessed against the producers, but pro-
vision is made for lowering this fee if
the running expenses Of the board ca r
be met at a smaller cost than the to-

Catarrh Deafness Cannot Be Cured

Catarrh Deafness Cannot Be Cured
by local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
There's only one way to cure catarrh-
al deafness. and that is by constitu-
itonal remedy. Catarrhal deafness is
caused by an infiamed condition Of the
mucuous lining OF the Eustachian
Tube. When this tube is infiamed you
have a rumbling sound or imperfect
hearing. and when it is entirely closed.
Deafness is the result. Unless the in
fiammation can be reduced and this
tube restored to its normal condition
hearing viii be destroyed forever
Many cases of deafness are caused by
catarrh, which is an infiamed condi-
ton of the mucous surfaces. Halls
Catarrh Cure acts through the blood on
the mucous surfaces of the system
We will give One Hundred dollars
for any case of Catarrh Deafness that
cannot be cured by Halls Catarrh

This observation is made because of
the fact that the real story of the

never been told in the headlines. The
headlines need an explosion. The
real story of this revolt is told in
gum shoe accents.
Dorsey Shackleford of Missouri is
the man on whom the suspicion rests

vigorously than any other one man.

life who is more exacting than the car

character up like totem pole

Shackleford would slide up to him and

at the side of the original victim:
Did you see that McLemore resolu-

"Um hum
What do you think about it,"
Haven't thought much"
And then Shackleford produced the
great card:
Haven't you heard from Reuben
about it,
| Now Reuben is the country constitu-

| the vote. Shackleford respects him as
| being the man who sent Shackleford

| And with that warning Shack moved
off, to attend to the other budding rev.

veins.
Ever and anon he would return 81
