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 ca
tarrhal deafness, and that is by a
constitutional remedy. Catarrhal
deafness is caused by an inflamed
condition of the mucous lining of the
Eustachian Tube. When this tube
is inf1amed you have rumbling
sound or imperfect hearing, and
when it is entirely closed, deafness
is the result. Unless the inflamma-
ton can be reduced and this tube re-
stored to its normal condition, hear
ing will be destroyed forever. Many
cases of deafness are caused by ca
tarrh, which is an inflamed condition
of the mucous surfaces. Halls Ca
tarrh Medicine acts through the
blood on the mucous surfaces 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
Druggists, Use.

SPEEDING UP OUR SHIPBUILDING
PROGRAM.

PHILADELPHIA, August 8.
America Monday began to replace
tonnage sunk by submarines in the
days before the allied yards reached
production equal to the toll of the
U-boats.
With the launching of the 1900
tos cargo carrier Quisconck sponsored
by Mrs. Woodrow Wilson, President
Wilson and a notable gathering be-
ing spectators, the stage of quaint
ty production of ships was reached
in the building program of the United
States. From this time forward the
increasing output of vessels will not
merely offset the naval efforts of
Germany, but will steadily make up
the deficiency in world tonnage.
Nearly 400 persons were overcome
by the heat in the great crowd. They
were treated at emergency stations.
and 175 of them were removed to
the yard hospital. All but 40 were
allowed to go home after receiving
additional treatment.
The Quisconck is the first ship to
De launched from the great Hog
Island Shipyard and the occasion was
made worthy of the "epoch in the
nations history,r which Chairman
Hurley, of the Shipping Board, de-
clared is marked. The men who built
the ship and the men who directed
the work, mingled in comradely spirit
with Government officials, while the
presence of the Chief Executive and
his family was the source of unend-
ing enthusiasm.
That's ine," the President ex-
claimed to Mrs. Wilson, as his eye
swept over the gigantic ship manu-
featuring plant, the 10000 employees
of the yard and many other thousands
of spectators.
Hardly had the President and Mrs.
Wilson arrived at the christening
stand than a huge basket of pink
roses was presented to the Presi.
dents wife. The bearer was William
McMillen, the man who drove the
first rivet in the Quistconck. Mrs.
Wilson dropped her bouquet of
orchids to take some of the gorgeous
pink blossoms, then grasped both of
McMillen's hands to thank him for
the gift. He replied that the yard
employees were grateful for her
coming, which he declared was a
real service, inspiring them to fresh
efforts.
my services are nothing compared
to yours" she answered quickly.

used for the christening. Mrs. Will

RURAL CHURCH SAYS AMEN
(Farm and Family


1t is quite right and proper to do
farm work on Sunday if that Sunday
work is necessary to produce food
crops to help whip Germany. That
is the attitude of the rural churches
of Indiana, expressed recently in con-
ference at Purdue University. The
reason given for this position was
the conviction of Indiana rural min
listers that Germany is the worst
enemy of civilization, and of every
church of civilization-of all relig-
ion everywhere that is worthy the
name of religion; that the victory of
the barbarous Huns would be literal
ly the victory of the devil and the
triumph of that pagan monstrosity
created by the Kaiser's savage and
sacrilegious mind and called him
"the good old German Gott;;" in
short, that every church in America
is fighting for it's existence, just as
every other component of civilization
is lighting for it's existence, and that
if Sunday work in saving crops will
help overthrow this bestial menace
it becomes vertically a chuIchly work
to do.
This conference of the rural
charches of Indiana was held at Pur-
due University under the auspices of
the Department of Agriculture Ex-

COMMON SENSE IS MAIN HEAD
LIGHT REQUIREMENT.

In response to a query by City At
torney Huston Quin, Assistant At
torney General D. O. Wyatt has ruled
that direct ray from an automobile
light is not necessary under the Har-
ris act, which requires that the light
shall disclose clearly objects 200 feet
away, yet may not, if as strong as
four candle power backed by a re-
Hector, throw a direct ray above
f0rty-two inches from the ground for
a distance of more than seventy-five
feet. The objects sought to be ac-
complished by the act, Mr.. Wyatt says
are to secure sufficient light for the
chauffeur to steer by and prevent the
light from binding a pedestrian or
driver of another car. If these two
objects are accomplished he does not
think it material whether the light
has a direct ray or is diffused.
