HOMELESS CHILDREN.

In the light of the great question
being agitated at the present. that of
conservation, we desire to call atten-
ton to the most valuable asset of the
state or nation, that of citizenship.
Every child born into the world has
a right to demand of the state or ma
tion square deal and an opportunity
to acquire a proper conception of life.
No place is so adequate and con-
ducive to such results as homelife, and
may | say that of farm life. 1t has
long been recognized tact that the
open field and country is the source of
our Stalwart citizenship.
Hence the effort on the part of the
Tennessee Children s Home Society to
place children, more especially the
boys, in well regulated country homes
If you are farmer, could you do
a better thing than take a little
homeless boy and give him the proper
home training, and acqualnt him with
the farm industry, ard with this give
him an education, and at the same
time brighten and make your home
more cheerful?
This society has in it's Receiving
Home between thirty and forty chill
dren. most of whom are boys, ranglng 3
in age from tiny infants up to seven
years. These are exceedingly bright
and we'll favored children, with plenty
of energy to make fine men.
We consider that no greater work
than this can be done toward the con-
servaton of the greatest asset of the
state or nation, that of citizenship.
If you would like to take one of
these little ones in your home for a
three months trial period, write b. e..

Catarrhal Deafness Cannot Be Guaed

by local appllcatIons, as they cahnut IeacH
the diseased portion of the ear. There
is only one way to cure catarrhal deafness.
Catarrhal Deafness is caused by an In
famed condition of the mucous lining Of
the Eustachian Tube. When this tube Is
infiamed you have a rumbttng sound or
imperfect hearing, and when it Is entirely
closed. Deafness is the result. Unless the
Inflammation can be reduced and this tube
restored to its normal condition, hearing
will be destroyed forever. Many cases Of
deafness are caused by catarrh, which 10
faces Halls Catarrh Cure acts thru the
blood on the mucous surfaces Of the sys-
tenn.
We will give One Hundred Dollars for
any case Of Catarrhal Deafness that cannot
be cured by Halls Catarrh Cure. Circulars
