Senator Blair Lee seems to be

of Maryland. Last fall they re-

Association.

Association.
One of the imperative duties
which lie before the Republican
voters at the coming primaries is
to select good. capable men for
Congress. 1t is foregone con-
clusion that theY next Congress
will be Republican. The present
| Congress has shown its utter in
ability to cope with the big ques-
tions which confront this age.
The people are looking to the Re-
publican party for relief. Men
| should be selected who are eX-
perienced, and who are broad E.
nough not only 70 see the needs
of Big Business, but also of Lit
tie Business. Men who are not
only in touch with the needs OF the
business man, but with the far
mer as we'll. Men who not only
know the needs of capital, but Of
| labor likewise. No mere politi-
clan should be nominated for this
important office in a single dis
trict. Three years ago the Dem
ccratic party came into power un-
der false rretenses. 1t rallied a.
gairSt the high cost of living, "
and soIemnly promised, if placed
in power, it would reduce the
cost of living. But once in, not
a measure was introduced tend
g ing in that direction. Not even
a resolution was passed eXp1 es-
sing a desire to lessen the bur-
dens of the people. The flaming
: headlines disappeared from the
papers, and apparently the prob,
lem of the high cost of living was
; forgotten. From the day that

For Catarrhal Deafness
and Head Noises

Here in America there is much suffer.
ing from catarrh and head noises. Amer.
lean people would do well TO consider the
method employed by the English to
combat this insidous disease. Everyone
knows how damp the English climate is
and how dampness affects those suffer
ing from oatarrh. 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
efiicacious.
Sufferers who could scarcely hear a
watch tick tell how they had their hear
ing restored 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 deaf
ness or head noises, cut out this formula
and hand IL to them and you will have
been the means of saving some poor suf-
ferer perhaps from total deafness. The
prescription can be easily prepared at
home for about Use and is made as fol-
lows:
From your druggist obtain ! OF. Of
Parmint Double Strength about zoe
worth. Take this home, and add TO it
IA pint of hot water. and 4 ounces Of
granulated sugar; stir until dissolved.
Take a tablespoonful four times a day.
Parmint is used in this way not only
TO reduce by tonic action the inhamma-
ton and swelling in the Eustachian
Tubes, and thus to equalize the air pres
sure on the drum, but 10 correct any ex-
cess of secretions in the middle ear, and
the results it gives are usually remark
ably quick and effective.
Every person who has catarrh in any
form should give this recipe a trial and
free themselves from this destructive
disease.
