WHAT IS A PR0-CERMAN?

Words are things. In such a crisis
they are dreadful things. ~portentous
things. things which can not be al
lowed to pass as of nc account,
Germany is penetrating every coun-
try of the world with her hired spies
and traitors. She disorganized the
Russian army through traitors after
the revolution. She knew the plan Of
Russian battle beforehand through
traitors. She has filled this country
with spies and traitors. She has fl
nanced the !. w. W., without a doubt.
She has destroyed property and. de-
bauched our citizens.
Is there any American who does not
long for peace? Not one! Neither is
there a Briton or Frenchman or
Italian or Russian. Blu it must not
be a German peace. leaving the great
spider in the center of his web wait
ing for another chance. 1t must be u
real peace 1t must be made with the
German people or with a ruined Hoh-
enzOllern-one or the other. But he
who talks peace as If he only longs
for it, as If he only were commissioned
to make peace must var q differ
ent sort Of peace from the sort we
must have. Distrust him. He may be
sincere, but he may not be.
The world has in the past been con-
quered by traitors-oftener than ii
was ever conquered by arms. The
Mexican people fought each other in
to slavery to Spain. Let us not be
bought by German gold into slavery
to Germany.

CATARRHAL DEAFNESS
CANNOT BE CURED

by local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the
ear. There is only n way to cure
catarrhal deafness, and that is by a
constitutional remedy. Catarrhal
deafness is caused by an infamed
condition of the mucous lining of
the Eustachian Tube. When this
tube is inf1ameo you have a rumb-
ling sound or imperfect hearing,
and when it is entirely closed, Deaf
ness is the result. Unless the in
hammation can be reduced and this
tube restored to it's normal condi-
ton, hearing will be destroyed for
ever. Many cases of deafness are
caused by catarrh, which is an in
famed condition of the mucous sur-
faces. Halls Catarrh Medicine acts
through the blood on the mucous
surfaces of the system.
w will give One Hundred Dol
lars for any case of Catarrhal Deaf
ness that cannot be cured by Halls
Catarrh Medicine. Circulars free.
