Capt. Dawson Jenkins, OF the large
power boat Hilda, had very bad ex-
perience in making his trip to Sails
bury during the gale Of wind last
Saturday evening. He had trouble
with his engine, and had TO stay
right by it all the time, and as Capt.
Percy Riley was the only other per-
son on board who knew the harbor,
the boat was put in his charge. Capt.
Riley put the boat in to Ellis Bay
harbor, and the tide ebbed dry and
caught them ashore. They walked
ten miles and hired an automobile
to take them to Salisbury. The boat
sustained considerable damage, the
pilothouse being blown off and some
of the seams near the stern opened.

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 inf1amed
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 re-
suit. Unless 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 infiamed condition of the mu-
cous surfaces. Halls Catarrh Medi-
cine acts thru the blood on the mu-
cous 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.

To The Public

The committee appointed by the
physicians of the county have deter
mined that the following are the
lowest minimum charges that can be
made by any reputable physician in
Dorchester county, Md. We appeal
to the good sense of the people of
the county to sustain us in this &C
ton, because we have refrained from
increasing our charges, though the
physicians of every county in the
State have already done so, and it is
we'll known that all types of labor
are now receiving double the wage
they formerly did The increased
cost of living and particularly of
medicines, has compelled us reluc-
tently to take this step, in order that
we may live and pay our bills. The
changes shall go into effect July 1,
1918.
A copy of this report and fee table
has been sent to every physician in
the county, and the physician who
does not live up to the letter and
spirit of this schedule and resolution
shall be regarded as outside the pale
of professional intercourse, and will
be refused professional assistance
and recognition by his fellow physi-
clans

These are twin evils. Persons suffer

Food distressed her and there was a
feeling like heavy weight pressing on
her stomach and chest She did not rest
well at night, and felt worn out q good
part of the time. One bottle of Cham
berlain's Tablets corrected this trouble
so that she has since felt like a different
person.
