Pan-German propaganda was start
ed by Germany in 1894 as Il means of
carrying German ideas 10 every coun-
try in the world, Captain Lester said.
This propaganda, he said, was TO be
carried to South and Central America,
Japan and China, and to the United
States.
Captain Lester said that Edward
Lyell Fox, a writer, was sent to Ger
many in 1915 by the German embassy
to write German propaganda, which
was distributed by the Hearst Inter
national News service. He added
there is nothing in the Army Intelli-
gence records showing that either Mr..
Hearst or managers of the Interna-

Captain Lester said Fox confessed
to him that while in Germany he had
an understanding he would write any
thing he was told to write by the Ger
man publicity bureau at Berlin.

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 catarr-
hal deafness, and that is by a consti-
tutional remedy. Catarrhal Deafness
is caused by an inflamed condition of
the mucous lining of the Eustachian
Tube. When this tube is inflamed
you have rumbling sound or imper-
feet hearing, and when it sentire-
ly closed, Deafness is the result. I'm
less the Inflammation can be reduced
and this tube restored to its normal
condition, hearing will be destroyed
forever. Many cases of deafness are
caused by catarrh, which is an in
famed condition of the mucous sur
faces. Halls Catarrh Medicine acts
thru the blood on the mucous sur
faces of the system.
We will give One Hundred Dollars
for any case OF Catarrhal Deafness
that cannot be cured by Halls Ca
tarrh Medicine. Circulars free. All
