the government, pledging an allegiance
that has been gloriously demonstrated
on every field Of battle and on every

pages of American history with the

thousands of Irish soldiers, marshaled
in brigades that maintained the pres

Catarrhal Deafness
and Head Noises

Here in America there is much suf-
feripg from catarrh and head noises.
American people would do we'll to con-
slider the method employed by the Eng
lish to combat this insidious disease.
Everyone knows how damp the Eng
lish climate is and how dampness af-
fects those suffering from catarrh: In
England they treat catarrhal DEAFNESS
and head noises as constitutional dis
ease and use an Internal remedy for 1t
that is really very efticacious
Sufferers who could scarcely hear
have had their hearing 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
deafness or head noises, cut out this
formula and hand 1t to them and you
may have been the means of saving
some poor sufferer perhaps from total
deafness. The prescription can be cas-

Parmint Double Strength). about 75c
worth. Take this home. and add to it
u pint of hot water and 4ounces of
granulated sugar. stir until dissolved.
Take tablespoonful four times q day.
Parmint is used in this way not only
to reduce by tonic action the infiam-
nation and swelling in the Eustachian
Tubes, and thus to equalize the air
pressure on the drum, but to correct
any excess of SecretionS in the middle

Every person who has catarrh in any

Cocoanut Oil Makes
A Splendid Shampoo

If you want to keep your hair in
good condition, be careful what you
wash it with.
Most soaps and prepared shampoos
contain too much alkali. This dries
the scalp, makes the hair brittle, and
is very harmful. Just plain mulsified
cocoanut oil (Which is pure and en-
tirely greaseless), is much better than
the most expensive soap or anything
else YOU can use for shampooing, as
this can't possibly injure the. hair.
Simply moisten your hair with
water and rub it in. One or two tea
spoonfuls will make an abundance of
rich, creamy lather, and cleanses the
hair and scalp thoroughly. The lath-
er rinses out easily and removes
every particle of dust, dirt, dandruff
and excessive oil. The hair dries
quickly and evenly. and it leaves it
fine and silky. bright, FLUFFY and easy
to manage.
You can get mulsifed cocoanut oil
at most any drug store. 1t is very
cheap, and a few ounces is enough to
last everyone in the family for
months.

FEW FOLKS HAVE
GRAY HAIR NOW
Druggist Says Ladies are Using
Recipe of Sage Tea and
Sulphur.

Hair that loses it's color and lustre,
or when it fades, turns gray, dull and
lifeless, is caused by lack of sulphur
in the hair. Our grandmother made
up a mixture of Sage Tea and Sulphur
to keep her locks dark and beautiful,
and thousands of women and men who
value that even color, that beautiful
dark shade of hair which is so attrac-
tive, use only this old-time recipe.
Nowadays we get this famous mix
ture improved by the addition of other
ingredients by asking at any drug
store for 50-cent bottle of ''Wyeth's S
Sage and Sulphur Compound" which
darkens the hair so naturally, so
evenly, that nobody can possibly tell
it has been applied. You just damp
en- q sponge or soft brush with it and
draw this through your hair, taking
one small strand at time. BY morn
ing the gray hair disappears; but
what delights the ladies with Wyeth's
Sage and Sulphur Compound, is that,
besides beautifully darkening the hair
after few applications, 1t also
brings back the gloss and lustre and
gives it an appearance of abundance
Wyeth's Sage and Sulphuy Com
pound is a delightful toilet requisite
to impart color and a youthful ap-
pearance TO the hair 1t is not intend
ed for the cure, mitigation or pre-
vention of disease.

parlor. Outside the door she leans
her hand against the wall, for her
knees have a sudden curious notion
to bend, and her breath has come
short, and she feels that she has no
color in her face; so she waits a
moment Then she draws aside the
portieres, and stops on the threshold.
There he stands near the window,
big and strong and handsome, and
there is no need to ask him any ques-
tions, as she looks into his clear eyes,
which somehow, like her own, have
grown the better for the cultivation
of suffering without bitterness.
For long, long space they stand
motionless, as IL their hungry eyes
must first be satisfied, then she is
in his arms, and he is kissing her over
and over and over, and telling her
again and again and again that he
loves her! And they are never to be
parted any more and she holds out
her finger for her ring. and there is
no trace in her eyes of the specter

where in the beautiful cottage, for
there is scarcely room which has
not its vase of gay flowers. Even
on the big mahogany desk there is
a huge bowl of apple blossoms, which
Tavy places there every season. Her
father had been very fond of them,
and Billy had been fond of them.
Billy is much in her mind to-day.
Perhaps it is because the air has in
1t that same quality of balminess
which it had on that day, so long ago,
when she, and Billy had walked
around and around Vanheuster
Square, listening to the triumphant
song of the lone robin. Five years
of cheerful purpose had brought to
Tavy q new beauty. The black hair
is just as curly. the deep gray eyes
just as luminous, the oval cheeks are
just as delicately tinted, but about
the red lips and about the deep eyes
comes only TO those who have learned
to suffer without bitterness.
Five years had added to the white
ness of Jean Stuart'S hair, but they
have added nothing more to her, ex-
cept the reward of her peace. AS she
comes into the room now, where
Tavy is arranging the apple blossoms
in the bowl there is u great similarity
between mother and daughter, though
they look nothing alike, and one has
youth and the other age. The SIM
ilarity is in the expression about the
eyes and lips, that expression of the
sweetness which repays those who
will suffer without bitterness.

arm around Tavy's waist holds her

There is a sudden catch in Tavy's
breath, a. sudden pallor in her face,
and then she steadies herself. When
one learns to suffer without bitter
ness, one has learned to have only
very quiet emotions.

Now the two tears which trembied

cheeks, but the smile, though it

about her daughter, and takes her
by the shoulders and looks deep into
her eyes. and kisses her. Then Tavy

The change in Jerry-the-Lim was
instantaneous. His leg came down,
the droop went out of his mouth, his
beady eyes glittered, and he began
to snarl even as he pushed his way
through the industrious men of<busi-
ness.
$50 it's Bow-wow!" he shrilled.
80 you've come back, you white
whiskered stiff So you got drunk,
eh, and they gave you the toss!"
Bow-Wow looked around at him
slowly, with a nodding head and dull
comprehension. His heaVy-lidded
eyes focused as best they could.
Hello, Jerry. Have a little drink"
That, and "A little whisky" were the
only words his thick tongue had form
ed since he came into the Sink.
Don't ask me to have "a drink"
Jerry's hand, quite by accident of
courses pushed bill from the edge
of the bar. The bill fell to the floor,
and he put his foot on it. DO you
know what you done to me?"
"Aw, cut it, Jerry; Bow-Wow's all
right! He's good buddy" Red
Whitley made that intercession. He
was desperately afraid that the happy
program might be interrupted.
Shut your yawp!" Jerry the-Limp
had regained his ascendency 1t was
the triumph of mind over matter.
I'VE came up for n friendly little
call, and you handed us the toss,

Vows face. His little eyes were glar-
ing vindictively and his snarl display
ed all his red gums. You turned
us up to Mike Dowd, didn't you!"
His claw-like hand grabbed Bow
Wow at the shoulder and shook him,
for better attention. "You got me in
scrap with my pals, and L got four
months, 1 did; four months, in fine
weather, and me with my poor Grip

turned Bow-Wow roughly around to
face him.
AT last the sodden Bow-Wow, in
tent only on supplying his one great
need, knew that he was annoyed.

given her a parting gift; peace!
T After they had come back from
that solemn journey to the city of the
dead, Billy drew Tavy aside into the
little room which was to have been

hers, but in him, too, there was some
strange new thing which had come
