Catarrhal Deanesfs Cannot Be Cured

Catarrhal Deanesfs Cannot Be Cured by local applications, they cannot reach the diseased portion of the ear. There is only one way to cure catarrh- al deafness, and that is by constitu- tional remedy. Catarrhal deafness is caused by an inflamed condition of the muous lining of the Eustachian Tube. When this tube is inflamed you have a rumbling sound or imper- feet hearing, and when it is entirely closed, Deafness is the result. Unless the inflammation can be reduced and this tube restored to it's normal condi- tion, 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 sur faces of the system.

To County Food Administrators

70 bounty Oou ADMINISTRATORS.
 Farmers having wheat must get same ground into flour immediately
 Please ascertain names of farmers who have grown wheat, the amount of that product in their possession and notify them as follows:
 All wheat held by farmers in Ark ansas must be ground into flour by May 1st. Farmers will be permitted to keep enough wheat for personal use and for seed purposes. The re- mainder must be sold to the govern ment. This action is necessary to offset the shortage of flour. In event farmers do not comply with this or der, please let me know. I have DOS ltlve instructions to requisition all wheat not milled after May 1. This l shall do. Farmers who fail to com ply with the order to grind their wheat into flour by May will be re- garded as giving aid and comfort to the enemy. The government has al- ready sezed 3OO,OOO pounds of wheat ln New Mexico. Let us hope I will not have to requisition a pound in Arkansas. Wheat sold to the gov ernment will bring the government plice. The government will not take anything it does not pay for, but Ark ansas wheat must be milled by May l. Give this the widest publicity in your county. Notify members of your executive committee and township committees to carry this news to the farmers.
 Provide me as soon as possible with report containing names of farmers having wheat in their possession and amount of wheat they have on hand. Give me postoffice address of such farmers.
 The food administration at no time has made any rules or regulations which in any way restrict the use of cotton seed meal for fertilizer. This impression seems to have gained ground from some unknown source. The food administration states, on the contrary, it's attitude has been that the crushing mills must give to the farmers of the south a prefer ence in the sale of their cotton seed meal over the commercial mixers. The farmers may in this way pur- chase their raw materials and mix their own fertilizers, thereby saving in their investment from 20 per cent to 25 per cent of the cost of commer- cial fertilizer
 Hamp Williams, Federal Food Administrator for Ark.
 Little Rock, Ark, March 30, 1918.
 The following telegram from MT. Hoover was received by me today:
 "Supplementing my wires yester- day, meatless day should be entirely suspended for next thirty days, be- ginning tomorrow. l am issuing statement to, press explaining what I have already explained to you that this is due to unusual run of hogs to market, car shortage during the win ter which still continues, limited storage capacity, overseas transporta- tion and port facilities. Large SUD- ply potatoes and milk and temporary removal of meat restrictions should facilitate enlarged savings bread stuffs.
 This announcement should not be considered by consumers as departure from general principles of consolida- ton of all foods. The need of food on the other side, and the need of economy in America, is greater than ever. Please give local publicity"

"Who wants to handle the goods

The cheers brought forth by his re-

her debt to Lafayette By writing off
all the nations loans to France, with
out the payment of a dollar.

Say Traffic Rush
Is No Place for
Girl Conductors

No girl under twcnty-one years of
age should be employed as messen-
ger and women should not be employed
at all in the subway and streetcars dur
ing rush hours, according to the dec-
sions Of the Women's Trade Union
League delegates, az Il conference held
Yesterday at the Russell Sage Founda
ton Building. The women expect to
have bills cmbodying these safeguards
to women's labor introduced into the
Legislature at once.
1--WE women have tho vote now, and
we expect to get much better attention
from our friends in the Legislature, -
said Miss Uilda Swenson, president of
the league. "Wc introduced an eight
hour bill for women in other years
and will introduce it again this year.
John p. Coughln, president Of the
Queens County, said that work on
strcetcars tended to "brutalize" wom-
en-, and this was confirmed by a dele
gate speaking from the floor.
"a woman conductor got a black eye
in scrimmage with passenger" said
the speaker "They hailed him into
court, ard he pleaded that he didn't
know she was a woman. All he saw
was cap and brass buttons, and he
punched them, he said"
Mr.. Coughlin deprecated the employ.
ment of women on cars.
"Isn't it pretty early in the war to
permit our women to endure things
like ths?" he demanded "The rush
hour fight in the streetcars is bad
enough for men, but for women to go
forcing their way through crowds of
rough irritable men is prcposterous.
"If women are actually needed in the
street railways, we should put them on
the mail cars and release the men fol
duty in the crowded streetcars. There
is, however, no such shortage of male
labor at present.
j. l.. Gernon. first deputy commits
soner of the New York State Indus
trial Commission, also declared that
there was no necessity Of putting wom-
en- in mems places in many dangerous
and strenuous occupations.
1.-TWO thousand women have replaced
men in New York State.' he said, "and
they do not get mems wages, in most
cases. One shrapnel company up state

Fifth District Worker Ar
rested After Making State
ment to Prosecutor
Accused Of Paying So
Voter Says He Signed Paper
After Receiving the
Money

Charles II. Moss. of 2S Greenwich
Avenue. who says he was a Republican
worker in the 9th Assembly District at
the last Mayoralty election, was held
in $1,000 bail yesterday by Magistrate
Fuchs, in the Tombs court, charged
with bribery. According to Assistant
Dstsic; Attorney Black, in charge Of
the investigation into the Mitchell
Fusion campaign fund, Moss gave 81
to William j. Bell, of 1876 Sixth Ave
nuc, for voting for John Purroy
Mitchell. Bell complained against Moss
last Friday.
Moss was making a statement to MIR.
Black yesterday and admitted that Bell
told the truth, whereupon Mr.. Black
broke the news to Moss that he would
be obliged TO oraer his arrest.
"l didn't mean that; | didn't know
what l was saying. Don't do that; don't
Go it. Have heart, Mr.. Black, have q
heart" he pleaded.
On the way to the Tombs Moss
fiouted the charge in his conversation
with Detective Cunnitf.
Calls 1t "Fuss Over Two Bones"
"My Cod" he exclaimed. "What on
earth is all this fuss over a measly
two bones. Why. that fellow Bell was
nothing but 81 boy. If they're going
to make an issue out of little thing
like that they'll have to lock all the
fellows up where worked. They were
all doing it,
Bell is "blunder clerk" in the de-
livery department at Wanamaker's. He
was held in 500 bail by Magistrate
Fuchs and sent TO the House of Deten-
tion as a material witness. He told
Mr. Black that he had known Moss
around the district for several years
He said Moss didn't exactly tell him
that he should vote for Mitchell.
II knew | was on his side if I cast
my vote for Mitchell. When | came out
of the polls Moss met me and handed
me two 81 bills. Then he took me into
Il hallway and got me to sign a piece
of white paper. No one was present
when the money was passed. he said
Moss told Mr.. Black that he primarily
got into favor at Fusion headquarters
through a note of introduction written
by Deputy Fire Commissioner Fay. He
said he acted as a guide at the head of
the elevators and got $25 week in
that capacity for fortnight preceding
Election Day.
Wasn't Told What To Do
He said no one told him what to do
on Election Day.
81 had been working up there for &
district" he said.
"Were you a Fusion worker four
years ago." Mr. Black asked.
"No-er, no; wasn't much interested
in Fusion then-only in the last year
or two" he replied.
