Deafnesscannot be cured

by local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear
There is only one way to cure deafness,
and that is by constitutional remedies.
Deafness is caused by an infamed con-
dition of The mucous lining of the Eus-
tachian Tube. When this tube gets in
famed you have rumbling sound or
imperfect hearing, and when it is en-
tirely closed deafness is the result, and
unless the inflammation can be taken out
and this tube restored to it's normal con-
dition, hearing will be destroyed forever,
nine cases out of ten are caused by ca
tarrh, which is nothing but an inhamed
condition of tie mucous surfaces.
We will give One HundredDollars for
any case of deafness (caused by catarrh)
that cannot be cured by Halls Catarrh
Cure. Send fro circular, free.

Riuht Foot Foremost.

The expression, to put your right
foot foremost, meaning to make as ia.
vorable an impression as possible, is
survival of a Roman superstition that
1t was ill-luck to cross threshold with
the left foot foremost.

Chronic Constipation

It is by no means an easy matter to
cure this disease, but it can be done in
most instances by taking Chamber

Ask Anyone Who Has Used 1t

There are families who always aim to
keep bottle of Chamberlain's Collie
and Diarrhoea Remedy in the house for
use in case it is needed, and find that it
is not only a good investment but saves
them no end of suffering. As to its
reliability, ask any one who has used it.

Birds Sinu in FIiuht.

The cuckoo is fine bird which
sings as it flies, especially when pur-
sued by angry little birds whose nest
it has attempted to invade. The tree
pipit and white throat generally rise
from their perch and flutter in the air
while singing. The missed thrush and
blackbird also sing while flying, but
only very rarely.

UNIVERSAL SERVICE TO
CONTINUE AFTER WAt
BY T. N. sANDIFER.

Washington, Oct. i5.--With a po-
tential fighting force of 100000 men
as a tangible result of our adoption
of universal military service, a cam
paign has already been launched for
its continuation after the war.
With regard to other nations at
war, little information has reached
here of the various military systems
since the outbreak OF hostilities. A
study of their pre-war systems is par
ticuiariy interesting now. however, in
view of the campaign for military SER
vice.
In the majority of cases universal
service was confined before the war
to high school students. This APP
piled to some extent in our own coun-
cry, where there are numerous cadet
corps among our educational institu-
items.
In England the training was strict
ly voluntary. However. English cadet
corps and Junior officers training
corps have done their bit in the great
emergency. In Australia training was
compulsory for boys from twelve to
eighteen; in New Zealand. for boys
over fourteen. In Canada. training
was voluntary In Australia armies
are still raised through volunteer en-
iistment.
France prescribed physical drill and
elementary military training for. boys
from nine 10 thirteen. Her army is
maintained through conscription.
Volunteer organizations existed in
Germany, where the army Is raised
by CONSUMPTION. Just before the out
break of war compulsory training for
youths was revived. During the war
boys over sixteen have been given
preparatory military training to speed
their preparation for the trenches
In practically every nation some form
of compulsory military training Ia
prescribed for school boys. Most OF
these systems are still in vogue.
With regard to a continuation oil
universal military service after the
war, there is every indication that
strong efforts will be made in this
direction. In Germany, for instance
strong organizations exist whose &C
tivities appear to be based on per
manency. In France organizations
exist for the promotion of military
training. Similar associations are or
ganized In this country. In Japan
especially. military instruction has q
firm position in the Japanese schoo
system and tradition
Practically every country still has
military instruction In It's schools
even since war has made such train.
ing a man-sfze job.
The question now, however, IL
whether the plan will extend to in
ciude universal service for adults
After the war" liz as yet a vague pc
riod. Soldiers call IL the golden age
Things may happen which will changs
the whole aspect of the matter. Ir
Germany it la hardly likely that the
old Junker organizations will be able
to continue when peace refgns. Ir
England 1t is common talk that the
large numbers of soldiers now fight
ing will have had enough OF militar,
rigors. and will desire to lead ar
easier life. However. those things are
for after the war"
