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 in- famed condition of the mucous lining of the Eustachian Tube When this tube is tnfamed you have a rumbling sound or inn perfect 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 catarrh, 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 Cir culars free. All Druggists. 75c.

ExcIusiveness

The Lady Whose Husband Had Be- come Rich in Munitions and who, be fore the war, had been taking in wash ing, raised her lorgnette and gazed over the top of it disdainfully at the merry country club crowd. On her more or less patrician face was a de- cidedly scornful look-a look that curled up the corners of her mouth and gave a steely, uncomfortable ap- pearanee to her gray eyes.
 Really she said to her companion, The Lady Whose Husband Had Be come Rich in Shipbuilding-"R Really, my dear, don't know what we're com ing to. This club isn't what it used to be at all. There is no class to it, no exclusiveness to it any more. Really you know, 1 think I shall have to re- sign. The dea of a person of my standing associating on equal terms with so many of these new richi"
 The Lady Whose Husband Had Be come Rich in ,Shipbuiiding and who, before the war, had been the niftiest little waitress in the Catch as Catch Can restaurant, looked at the throns with scorn equal to that of the first speaker.
 "Yes," said The Lady Whose. Illus pdiiu t1dd become fllch III SnlpDullu- 1 ing, "Yes, the club is filling up with d lot of these vulgar rich. It's no place for us people who have had money in the family for such long time. The upstarts,"
 And The Lady Whose Husband Had | Become Rich in Munitions and The Lady Whose Husband Had Become l Rich in Shipbuilding concentrated their aristocratically disdainful gaze full upon the object of their scorn, The Lady Whose Husband Had Become Rich in Texas Oil!

ONLY EMBASSIES NOW WET
(From the Chicago Tribune}


 WASHINGTON-Except for the for eign embassies and legations Washing ton now is bone dry" under a proyi- sion of the new revenue law with drawing the immunity which the capi- tai heretofore has enjoyed from the Reed amendment forbidding the impor- tation of intoxicants into prohibition territory.
 Hundreds of shipments on their way from Baltimore were held up outside the 6S---1ict lines, having failed to get beyond the zone before the bars went up. For days before the amendment became effective express facilities. motor trucks, interurban lines and railroads between Washington and Baltimore were congested with liquor shipments or with citizens making per sonal trips to the nearest liquor vend- ing point.
 Embassies and legations of foreign governments are considered extra ter ritorial properties and not affected, ac- cording to the internal revenue bureau, although no formal ruling has been made.
 When wartime prohibition becomes effective July all American territory will be dry except the Philippines. which will not be affected until the constitutional prohibition amendment goes into effect January Is, 1920. All other insular possessions already are dry.
 Permanent prohibition in the Panama canal zone is provided in a bill just passed by the senate and sent to the house. The zone already is dry" by presidential order.

The Family Catherine

It sure looks like a lot of folks when all your relatives come trailing into your house for the family gathering. There are Uncle Edward and his fam fly, including mischievous little Willie, who is certain to get into the ice cream before dinner and to break at least three pieces of furniture during the afternoon. There are Cousin Joe and his boisterous family and Aunt Han nah and her youngsters, and also Aunt Betty-the only unmarried member of the family-who is tall and austere, but who has never been known to turn down an invitation for party such as this. Poor Aunt Betty-she never says anything about wishing she had a family of her own, but at times, when one of the babies raises her lips for kiss, for instance, there's look in her eyes that speaks of a sense of loss too big for words.
 Of course some of the youngsters fight with each other and the walls of the vanquished rise to high heaven while the mothers tell their offspring to hush up,' ard look apprehensively
 at the neighbors' homes, apparently afraid that riot call may be sent for
 the police.
 uncle Henry, who IS becoming more forgetful as the years roll by, tells hs famous moth-eaten joke. while every body laughs considerably. Young Cousin Jimmy and his new bride moon around the place and finally efface i themselves from view into a large easy chair in a dark corner of the upper hall.
 1 There's a lot of confused talking. a | Ot of nd disagreeable trouble, of course. But d single glance at Aunt Betty makes all l the annoyanceS you may feel seem :, mighty petty. Trouble? Say, Aunt
 Betty and all the other old people who have no family of their very own,
 know the deepest depths of the most
 real pain and misery and despair and
 desperate trouble in all the wide world
