Catarrhal Deafness Cannot Be Cured

Catarrhal Deafness Cannot Be Cured
BY local applications, as they can
not reach the diseased portion of
the ear. There is only one way
to cure catarrhal deafness, and
that is by constitutional remedy.
Catarrhal Deafness is caused by an
intiamed condition of the mucous
lining of the Eustachian Tube.
When this tube is infalned you
havea rumbling sound or imperfect
hearing, and when it is entirely
closed, Deafness is the result.
Usless the inflammation can be
reduced and this tube restored to it's
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 Ca
tarrh Medicine acts thru the blood
on the mucous surface of the
system.
We will give One Hundred Dol
lars for any case of Catarrhal
Deafness that cannot be cured by
Halls Catarrh Medicine. Circulars

AMERICAN SOLDIERS MOTTO

William slavens McNutt, in Golfers Weekly.
 O1 ONE critics say that the Ameri- M can soldier is reckless. To a cer-
 tain extent he is. His motto is: Let's go!' When things get hot he'd much rather go over the top and get 'em than go down in a dugout and wait for 'em. He wants to take chance. raiding party started out from the American trenches. The lieutenant lead ing the party selected 20 men to ac- company him. They were to go across No Mans Land, establish contact with the boche, and bring back prisoners On trip like that it's better than an even bet that some of the party are not coming back. Don't imagine that the men who go out on those trips don't know that. They know it better than anyone else. The lieutenant led his men oyer the top and out through the wire It was inky dark. A man couldn't see his hand before his face. They crept through the wire single file, each man with one hand touching the foot of the man crawling in front Of him. Outside the wire they stopped to take tally and sure that all were present.

 They tried it over, with the same re- suit Three men who might have stayed safely behind in the trench had sur |reptitiously added themselves to the raiding party. It was too late to go back, so they advanced. A few minutes later they took the count again, and the lieutenant was No. 26
 "We're doin' fine, sir." the man be- hind the lieutenant whispered, stif1ing la giggle. We got five prisoners a'ready."
 It means something-that spirit. It is small thing as applied to that particular little raiding party, but it is typical of the American army. Being typical. it is important The ultimate purpose of the American army is of- fense. And when that offense begins the men will go eagerly, hunting for trouble. not because they are driven forward by merciless officers, but be- cause trouble is temporarily their only business and they are r'arin' to be a ahout iti

* 'F F Industrial Activity After War Ends

0H HERE is a great drive for pro-
 U duction for the winning of the war. New coal mines are being opened, new steel works and fabricat- ing mills and by-product coke ovens are being erected, shipbuilding plants recently constructed are being oper- ated day and night and new ship plants are being hurried to compile |tion.
 But as imperative as the demand is for everything that can contribute to the defeat of Germany, the demand for all construction material after the war is over will be still greater.
 The allies will need rehabilitation, and in this country all the railroads will have to be supplied with new rails, to say nothing of thousands upon thousands of miles of new lines or extensions. Director General Nc Adoo, in charge of all transportation, is expending nearly billion dollars on railroad equipment, but all this will meet the situation only tenn porarily and in limited way. There has been little railroad construction during the past ten years; no new lines to speak of
 To put the railroads in good physi- cal condition, and to extend the sys- tems now operating, would be enough to keep all the steel plants busy for years to come; but the demand thus created will be only small part of the general demand in our nation wide upbuilding.
