A hundred and eighty million people
in hungry lands are looking TO Amer
ica for food which no other people ex-
cept the American people can give
them.
In their misery and fannie, Bel
gium, Northern France, Central Rus
sia, Serbia, Montenegro, Poland, Ru-
mania and Armenia IRE already crying
aloud to America.
From America food must go. What
is sent must be saved.
Perhaps that is Americas MISSION
Peace or no peace, war or no war,
the American people must keep on
saving food.
This is the message of the United
States Food Administration, whose
leaders realize that the outcome or
the present situation will only in
crease the responsibilities Of the Uni
ted States, no. matter how events in
Europe turn.
Millions of people in territory that
has been occupied by the enemy are
in misery. Famine stalks abroad.
They must be fed.
Under any circumstances, the
American nation is bound by the
food pledge Of August, 1913. The
Allies were told: MAKE your plans
for Victory"
To this victory, Americas contrt
button, among other things, will be
seventeen and one-haf million tons OF
food. America is bound. The pledge
is not broken by the signing Of the
armistice.
The change that has come in the
situation has rather increased the
burden on American resources be-
cause the burden of feeding millions
of hungry peoples who could not be
reached before now becomes the
common burden of the Allies; and
that obligation can be lessened only
by living up to II
There is but one way in which sew
teen and oneAaH million tons OF
food can be got to send to Europe to
save the lives Of hundreds OF thous-
aRds who will die from hunger in a
famine land unless they get it. That
way Is to save it.
It means intensive saving OF all
food, Just as wheat was saved in the
wheat emergency, just as sugar was
saved in the sugar emergency. There
can be no greater folly indulged by
the American people than the idea
that because the fighting has ceased in
Europe there is no longer any need
OF saving food

Catarrhal Deafness Cannot Be Cured

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 catarrh
al deafness.and that is by a constitu-
tional remedy Catarrhal Deafness is
caused by an inflamed condition of
the mucous lining of the Eustachian
Tube. When this tube is inflamed
you have a rumEbling sound or imper-
feet hearing, and when it is entirely
closed, Deafness is the result. Unless
the Inflammation can be reduced and
this tube restored to its normal con-
dition, hearing will be destroyed for
ever. Many bases 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 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
