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 catarrhal deafness. and
that is by a constitutional remedy. Catarrhal
Deafness Is caused by an inhamed condition
of the mucous lining of the Eustachian Tube.
When this tube is inhamed you have a rum
bling sound or imperfect hearing, and when
It is entirely closed. Deafness is the result.
Unless 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 eatarrh, which
is an infamed condition of the mucous sur
faces. Halls Catarrh Medicine acts thru 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 Catarrh Medicine. Circulars
free. All Druggists, Use.

BUY r STAMPS.

Ill every OOuHly OIL VIEW Jersey COm-
mittees have been organized to push
the sale of War Savings and Thrift
Stamps, and in this way give every
man, woman and child an opportunity
to help the United States win the war.
Every bank and trust company in the
State that advertises has given two
weeks of it's regular advertising space
to Dwight w. Morrow, State Director,
to use for his campaign.
The railroads running through New
Jersey are also generously co-operat-
ing in advertising the merits of War
Savings Stamps as a simple and sound
investment.
President Wilson may not have had
Thrift Stamps in mind, but he certain
ly expressed the idea back of them
when he said in his speech on April
18th, 1917-"This is the time for Am
erica to correct her objectionable
fault of wastefulness and extrava-
gance. Let every man and every wo-
man the duty of careful, pru-
dent use and expenditure as a public
duty, as a dictate of patriotism which
no n can now expect ever to be ex-
cused or forgiven for ignoring"
This campaign is much bigger than
a mere bond selling effort. The pur-
chase of these War Savings Stamps
from savings really confers three ben
efits in the one transaction. You loan
your money to your Government,
which needs it; you release by your
savings Goods and Services which
are necessary for the successful end
ing of the war, and you are storing up
dollars for yourself which you may
need and can get at any time.
New Jersey is expected to buy 81
millions of dollars worth of these
Stamps during the coming year. This
amounts to $40 for every man, woman
and child in the State. Here are six
reasons why, in this time of war you
should save, and everyone of them is
a reason why you should invest your
savings in War Savings Stamps.
l. Because when you save, you help
the Country to help you to win the
war.
2. Because when you spend on
things you do o need you help the
Germans.
3. Because when you spend, you
make other people work for you, and
the work of every one is wanted now
to help u fighting men, or to produce
~necessaries, or to make goods for ex
port.
4. Because by going without things
and combining your s%pendings to neces.
saries you relieve the strain on our
ships and docks and railways and
make transport cheaper and quicker.
5. Because when you spend you
make things dearer for everyone, es-
pecially those who are poorer than
you.
b. every dollar saved helps
twice, first when you don't spend il
and again when you lend it to the
Nation.
You may buy a Thrift Stamp for
25c or a War Savings Stamp for SAP
at your P~ostoffice or your Bank. Six
teen Thrift Stamps and 12c may be
exchanged for a Wal Savings Stamp,
which will be redeemed by the United
States Government for $500 in 1928.
The United States pays you 4 per cent.
interest compounded quarterly on your
War Savings Stamps. and on demand,
at any time, will repay you what you
paid for the Stamp plus 8 per cent. in
terest. This is the simplest and best
Government security ever offered by
the United States

DESTROY ALFALFA

Now is the time to destroy the al

ages.
The manner of craiitatiug the
worms is very simple 1t consists IN
cutting the alfalfa just as the yellow
butterflies begin to fly over tine field.
These yellow butterflies are a dlfte,
evidence Of ths presence of the worms

cycle. In other words, the worms
hatch into butterflies. These batter

hence they are completely checked and
checked at once. II water is withheld
from the alfalfa during this period it

COTTON EXCHANGE
RECOVERSQU|CKLY
FROM DECLINE

NEW YORK, Jan. 17.-VIolent con-
vulsions OF the cotton market, on &C
count OF shock from the Garfield or
der, lasted only fifteen minutes, and
the market after that remained re-
markably steady. 1t is believed that
covering by a few large bear specu-
lators stopped the decline. Brokers
said future action of the market de-
ponds largely on Southern holders. II
they remain frm there yyflI be little
likelihood of q further violent de-
cline.
The market remained steady during
the second hour with trade buying
on the decline.
Cotton people interviewed, refrain
ed from criticising the Garfield coal
order. Some believed that the order
will have less influence on the cot
ton industry than would appear at
this first moment. 1t was said mills
might overcome the reduction in
working days by adding an extra
hour or two to the remaining five
working days for the next few
weeks, and in this way keep up the
usual consumption OF cotton
