insisted that she would remain neu-

In each of the two countries opinion
is held that the attitude of the other
indicates ulterior designs in South

the Argentinians.
Both countries have been at fever
heat on account Of many rumors OF
mobilization and warlike preparation
on both sides of the disputed line.
Travelling through the frontier coun-
try one continually hears such re-
marks as "Well, we've got to fight
some day and now is the best time"
Many Argentines look with suspi-
con upon Brazil's preparations to at
once double her standing army within
the next two or three months and ul-
timately to increase it to 100000. Ar
sentines assert that Brazil does not
intend to send soldiers to fight in Eu-
rope and argue that such large force
isn't needed at home to keep her Ger
man residents in check Therefore,
they say Brazil's preparations are
really against Argentina
The bulk of the Brazilian army was
moved into Rio Grande de Sui during
the recent railway strikes and troops
have been kept there encamped along
the railroad 1t has also been officl-
ally announced that under the new

large number OF Americans are SUI
faring from more or less serious de-
fects of hearing. Often this condi-
ton could be averted by the taking
OF a few simple precautions.
Children should be taught that it is
dangerous to put things in the ears.
If any little object like a bean, but
ton or insect should get into the ear
it must not be dug after. Much dam
age has been done by persons ignor-
ant of the formation of the ear in dig

method Of removing foreign bodies.
The ear can be divided into three
parts, which are intimately connected
external, middle and internal. The
abuse of the external ear, or that part
which stands out from the head and
is generally known as the ear often
does permanent harm to the unex-
posed parts. the middle and external
