70 Relieve Catarrh,
Catarrhal Deafness
And Head Noises

Persons suffering from catarrhal
deafness, or who are growing hard OF
hearing and have head noises will be
glad to know that this distressing
affiiction can usually be successfully
treated at home by an internal medi-
cine that in many instances has ef-
fected complete relief after other
treatments have failed. Sufferers who
could scarcely hear have had Their
hearing restored to such an extent
that the tick of a watch was plainly
audible seven or eight inches away
from either ear. Therefore. If you
know of someone who is troubled
with head noises or catarrhal deaf
ness, cut out this formula and hand II
to them and you may have been the
means of saving some poor sufferer
perhaps from total deafness. The
prescription can be prepared at home
and is made as follows:
Parmint Double strength). Take
water and a little granulated sugar;
stir until dissolved. Take one table,
spoonful four times a day.
Parmint is used in this way not
only to- reduce by toniL action the in
flammation and swelling in the Eus-
tachian Tubes, and thus to equalize
the air pressure on the drum, but to
correct any excess of secretions in the
middle ear. and the results 1t gives
are nearly always quick and effective.
Every person who has catarrh In
any form, or distressing rumbling,
kissing sounds in their ears. should
give this recipe a trial.-Advertise-

face and answered in my stead:
Anne actually is unhappy, ILrs.
Warden. I've resigned from the
army-and she's sharing my dis
appointment because I'm not physi-
cally fit to serve"
There were calculations, ques-
tions as to what he was going to
do, suggestions-and finally out of
the hurry burly of noise came Jim s
triumphant announcement that he
had already SECURED employment
that he was going to work for Sned-
den & Company.
"Oh-the Snedden bunch?" said
Dicky.
His voice arrested my attention.
Was he merely indifferent-the
shadowy imitation of friend-or
was there really some reason why
Jim's connection with that firm
didn't appeal to him?

JUNEAU, May 3-Editor Empire
 It would seem very unwise at the present time to place too much
 dependence on the scientific view
 point of this much discussed four
 year cycle period of tile red salmon
 return. As matter of fact it is
 purely a theory only, according to
 men of practical experience, quail
 fled to judge fish and their habits,
 and propagation and distribution. My
 observation from both natural and
 artificial restocking of streams, caus-
 es me to explode this four-year cycle
 period, just the same as it is un-
 safe to place too much dependence
 on the work of our hatcheries under
 the present system of operations.
 If any salmon stream, or river, has
 ever come back to it's own, 1 don't
 know of it, for all the hatcheries
 and retaining ponds in Christendom
 cannot replace the salmon run as 1t
 If the Columbia River today shows any sizable increase of salmon, bet ter give nature the credit, for it
 was brought about by the natural
 which had escaped man, and all his nets, racks. traps, wheels, and gear, and reached the highest up-riyer tributary streams for reproduction, for we have not helped the natural propagation, but rather have we placed them under serious handicaps by planting into salmon streams other specie of fish to pray upon the eggs and fry, and to consume natur- al salmon food intended for the young salmon Black bass, carp and other fish in the Columbia river and tributary streams are seething mass es of enemies of the young salmon fry.
 Don't forget this one thing-That the future salmon industry of Alaska depends on the number of fish that escapes man and reaches his spawn ing grounds.
 The Southeastern Alaska Fish and Game Club, has an entire new com mon sense method to assist nature without any scientific theory attached to it. but is and has been handicapped and without funds from any source by government or Territorial.
 Why don't you get busy and look into this plan, Mir. canneryman and | fisherman? Do you know that fifty
 million dollars represent last years l fish industry? Do you want the | Frazer river conditions in Alaska
