New York, Jan. 1.-Tradc and in

tive and practically unchanged, not.
withstanding development in the Flu
ropCan war situation, the disturbance
in money rates and the very unsettled
stock markets. according to intorma-
ton obtained through special reports
from numerous firms and corpora
tons in the last few days, it was stated
here today by Pierre Jay, chairman Of
the federal reserve bank of New York
Retail stores are reported as hand
ling IAN unprecedented volume of hol-
iday trade" Mr. Jays statement says.
while collections generally are stated
to be very satisfactory. Materials are
stated to be still scarce and the de-
livcrics of goods somewhat hindered by
II shortage of freight cars. The labor
situation, he says, has been consider
ably improved by the closing down of
certain outside activities and by work
men seeking sheltered employment
during the w.ttcr.
The demand for nowsprint paper.
Jays announcement declares, exceeds
anything heretofore known. exceeding
for the first time the producing ca
paCity of the mills" This Is accounted
for, he says, by increased advertising
and circulation.
"ENcrything entering into the MAN.
ufacturo of paper he adds, has IN

per have fallen off considerably"
short crops and u large demand
have caused prices of food products to
rise, he says, while soasonable condi-
tons prevail in other lines.

Deafness Cannot Be Cured

by local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
There is only one way to cure deaf
ness, and that is by the constitutional
remedies. Deafness is caused by an
inflamed condition of the mucous
lining of the Eustachian Tube. When
this tube is inflamed you have a
rumbling sound or imperfect hearing,
and when 1t is entirely closed, Deaf
ness is the result, and unless the in
Examination can be taken out and this
tube restored to its normal condition.
hearing will be destroyed forever; nine
cases out of ten are caused by Catarrh,
which is nothing but an inflamed
condition of the mucous surfaces
We will give One Hundred Dollars
for any case of Deafness (caused by
catarrh) that cannot be cured by Halls
Catarrh Cure. Send for circulars free.

ing raised for Protestant Episcopal
clcrgymcn and their dependent fam
lies was announced here today by
Bishop William Lawrence of Massa-
chusetts. chairman of the fund COM
mittee.
This is the largest sum of money
the church over has raised in SO short
q time" Bishop Lawrence said. The
campaign which began March !, 1916,
will end on March l of this year. ON
that day the entire $5,000,000 must be
to keep the four millions now pledged.
We are confident, however, that the
extra $1,000 900 will be raised and that
this pension system will be formally
established to provide substantial life
annuitics for aged and disabled clergy
and the widows and dependent orph-
ans of deceased clergy
The plan as described in an an
nounccmcnt by the committee Is
based on thorough investigation and
recognized actuarial principles" 1t is
calculated to provide minimum old
age pension Of $500 TO clcrgymcn who
voluntarily retire at the age of G8.
while the maximum is to be half the
average salary.
\ disability pension also is TO be
provided. available at any age, 'reck-
on"d on tho basis of 40 per cent Of the
average salary for five years Of service
preceding involuntary retirement. with
minimum of 5000. Under the plan
widows will receive half of the pension
the husband would have been entitled
time of marriage, which must have
been contracted before retirement, the
minimum being $500.
Orphans benefits are to be a flat
| basis of 800 annually up to the age
Of years: 5000 to those between :
and IA and $500 to those above II un-
til they reach majority, all such bene-
fits ending, however, when the re
cipient ceases to be dependent.
The $1,000 600 being collected now is
to enable the fund to commence immc-
date payment to clergymen who will
