CATARRH
"A iOathsOmc, Disagrecdblc Condition f:
Dangerous and Offensive.

Catarrh is az loa thsome and disgust
Ing as 1t Is common. The victim, dull
of mind, slow. shambling gait, with
bis foul breath and constant hawk
ing and splitting Is to be pitied. Ca
tarrhal conditions may make life mis-
cradle. Dull headaches, roaring and
singing noises in the ears. phlegm
dropping into the throat. cloggad
nostrils, bad breath, loss OF appetite
and slow falling OF the sense of smell
and hearing generally show the pres
ence OF this dangerous and offensive
condition.
From England, where, owing to the
damp climate. catarrh is even more
common than here. comes this old
fashioned recipe. designed for use In
catarrhal troubles. From your drug
gist get an ounce of Parmint double
strength). Take II home and add to
1t onefourth pint OF hot water and
four ounces OF ordinary granulated
sugar. Take tablespoonsful four
times a day.
This will often bring quick relief
from the distressing head noises, the
clogged nostrils should open, breath
ing become easy and mucus stop drop
ping into the throat. II Is easy to
prepare, pleasant to take and quito
inexpensive Anyone who has ca

noises, should give this prescription a

WAURIKA, okla. Dec. Ga daily
discussion of why America. is In the
world war and what she can do to

course of study In every school during
the remainder OF the war. This In
substance IL what j. NJ. Dyer county
superintendent of education, Is recon-
mending to boards Of education and
teachers IN Jeffers, - county. He sug-
gests that pupils be required to search
for facts relating to the war and bring
them to the class for discussion.
"Our pupils should know the names
of the great military leaders. the loca-
tion of the army cantonments, the
facts of The selective draft, etc, and
they should he given conception or
the great fact of spreading the doc
trine of democracy to monarchial ma
tions OF the world" says Mr.. Dyer
"The knowledge OF why we are in the
war and what defeat would mean

Notld tapltal Bureau,

OKLAHOMA CITY. Dec. 6.-State-
ments made during the recent meet.
ing of the State Teachers association
and given some publicity, caused tho
impression that German was being
taught In the common schools, es.
pecially In rural districts This I'M
preston, state Superintendent Wilson
said today, is erroneous. There arc
no schools, except the high schools, in
which German is taught. But in a
few places in the western part OF the
state German parents established pri-
vate schools and took their childreh
from the public schools and put them
In the private schools so they could
be taught German
The objection of the teachers to
this was that the children were de-
prived of education in English. A
resolution covering this matter va,
adopted by the teachers to the effect
that members OF congress be asked
to interest congress In movement
that would prevent the taking Of the
children from the public schools and
putting them In private schools where
nothing but German is taught. The
teachers recognized the obstacle tpnt
parents have a right to send their chill
dren to private schools, but under
present conditions they thot congress
had the power TO interfere. IL was
explained that these children being
educated in private schools where only
German is taught was depriving them
of the opportunity OF gaining an edu-
cation In English

NORMAN, Okla, Dec. 6.-Individ-

buying feed far in excess of their ordi-

reaching Stratton -. Brooks, food ad-
ninistrator for Oklahoma. AS re-
suit letters have been sent out to
wholesale grocers and flour mills
warning them against supplying re-
tailars with more than their customary
orders.
Chairmen of the councils of de-
fensc In each county of the state also
have been rotified In order that they
investigate conditions I'm their coun-
ties ond take steps to curb this ten
dency. Both wholesalers and mem
hers of the councils of defense have
been instructed to report excessive re-
tail buying to the food administra-
ticu.
single individuals have purchased
as Inuch al 1000 pounds of flour,
says the letter to the defense council
chairman such boarding is con-
traI'y to public policy and probably
punishable by law. Any retailer or
produce man who persistently fills
such orders will find himself unable
to obtain restock because mills and

tions are not allowed to supply any
