Here is the way 10 waterproof cloth ::
Dissolve ten pounds of roSim in four
gallons of hot lim>eed oil Pour into
Il tub to which Il wringer is attached.
Pass the cloth through the hot oil and,
as soon as well soaked, through the
wringer. Spread on fence or ground
Immediately until thoroughly dry. Dry

solution will treat about fifty yards OF
cloth.
For waterproOting Il tent NeSsmuk III

which he says is excellent: TO ten
quarts of water add ten ounces Of lime

twelve hours, then rinse in lukewarm

The increasing growth of kindergar

remarked by the United States commits
sioner of education. who said: with
in the last six or seven years there has
been more progress i'll the establish
ment of kimdergartens n cities, towns
and Industrial villages of this country
than in any previous period of equal
length. This is especially true Of
kinder&arloms supported by public
school funds This progress has been
largely due to the activities of the Ma
tional kindergarten association"
The kindcrgartem course secures to
the child an extra year of education,
and as the boys and girls of this coun-
try average only little over five years
in school the value of this additional

Sleen and Dreams

The brain i more active while en-
gagged in dreaming than when not thus
engaged. The only perfect sleep is
that which is dreamlc~S The moment
the sleeper begins to dream he begins
to work. and the more vivid and pro
tracted the dream the more intense,
naturally. becomes the work. 1t is
possible that at no time during the
waking hours of life is the brain SO
active as it is in the strange business

Catarrhal Deafness Cannot Be Cured

Catarrhal Deafness Cannot Be Cured
by local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
There is only one way to cure ca
tarrhal deafness, and that is by a
constitutional remedy. Catarrhal
Deafness is caused by an inf1amed
condition of the mucous lining OF
the Eustachian Tube. When this
tube is infamed you have a rum
bling sound or imperfect hearing,
and when it is entirely closed, Deaf
ness is the result. Unless the infiam-
nation 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 is an infamed
condition of the mucous surfaces.
Halls Catarrh Medicine acts thru
the blood on the mucous surfaces oi
the system.
We will give One Hundred Dollars
for any case OF Catarrhal Deafness
that cannot be cured by Halls Ca
tarrh Medicine Circulars free. Al

USE BREAD MADE FROM

Atlanta, Ga, April 26.-Thc women
Of Atlanta are being urged to help
win the war by cutting out white
bread and feeding their families on
bread from the whole of the wheat
which practice, II followed thorough
out the country would save enough
wheat to feed the entire population
nearly two months in the eyar at the
present rate of consumption.
Everyone who has eaten graham
bread knows that it is far more de-
licious, when properly baked, than
white bread. There never was a bet

served hot with butter spread over
it.
