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 Catarrhal Deafness.
HALLS CATARRH MEDICINE acts
through the Blood on the Mucous Surfaces
of the System. Catarrhal Deafness Is
caused by an inflamed condition OF the
mucous lining of the Eustachian Tube.
When this tube is infiamed you have a
rumbling sound or imperfect hearing and
when 1t is entirely closed. Deafness is the
result. Unless the Inflammation can be re-
duced and this tube restored to its nor
NAL condition, hearing may be destroyed
forever. Many cases of Deafness are
caused by Catarrh. which is an infiamed
condition of the Mucous Surfaces.

Fighting Men Have Faith in All Sorts
of Things-Living Mascots
Especially Popular.

Many and various and queer are the
luck charms" of fighting men. Tiny
rabbits and black cats made of ''lucky"
metal are found quite frequently.
Among the French it is held partic-
ularly lucky to have gold coin in
ones possession when going into
battle.
The British carry lucky flower, the
white heather A piece of this heather
properly tucked away inside the hat

WHAT IS vACHER-BALM?

Some years ago q vegetable wax
was discovered that has the power to
quiet nerves, and thus stop fnfiamma-
ton, without injury; this we combine
with extracts that destroy disease
germs and prevent infection. We
make this compound into a salve, with
the result that we have a local rem
edy that promptly relieves practically
all kinds of pains. such as Rheuma-
tism, Neuralgia, Toothache, Earache,
Sprains, Burns, Boils,. etc.
This salve is obviously also the best
thing for Catarrh and Group: in fact
its quick action in the natter danger
Gus complaint is simply marvellous;
and being harmless, it can be used in
ternally for Collie, etc.
OF course the success Of Vacher-
Balm caused many limitations to ap-
pear so be sure you get the genuine
which has the signature of e. w.
VACHER on every package. It is put
up In 25c and soc jars, and 25c tubes.
If you have never tried Vacher-Balm
write to E. w. yacher. New Orleans,
La, for a Free Sample. No family
should be without this remarkable rem
edy; It saves so much suffering.
II your druggist will not get Vacher-
Balm for you, we will supply you di-
