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 conslitu- tiOnal remedy. Catarrhal Deafness is caused by an infiamed condition of the mucous lining of the Eustachian Tube. When this tube is infiamed you have a rumbling sound or imperfect hearing, and when it is entirely closed. Deaf ness is the result. Unless the iniiama- ton san be reduced and this tube fe- stored 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 mucous surfaces. Halls Catarrh Cure acts thru the blood on the mucous sur faces of the system.
 We will give One Hundred Dollars for any case of Catarrhal Deafness that cannot be cured by Halls Catarrh Cure. Circulars free. All Druggists Ioc,

PROHIBITION TO BRING
 COMMUNITY PLAYHOUSE
Hazel Mackaye Advlses Using Build Inos as centers for Drama. Com munity SInos and Enter
 tainmentA

Why not turn the corner saloon into community playhouse when the law effects the closing of these gathering places asks Miss Hazel MacKaye, d. rector of the Department of Pageantry and Drama of the Rational Young Wo- mems Christian Association?
 "I went over on the West Side of New York one night recently to attend a community drama meeting" Miss MacKaye says in explaining her theo- ry, "and as I was riding along noticed how many saloons there were-one on every corner and another in the mid 1le of the block. 1t seemed, all just blazing with lights. Those lights ought not to go out with prohibition. They ought to shine for something worth while to all of the people, and what better than community drama and Sngs?"
 Miss Mackaye feels that the war has given a great impetus to popular interest in drama and that through pageantry and drama a great deal in the way of Americanization can be eff fected
 Through the community center, If 1t DC in a district populated largely of one foreign nationality, these people could present pageants of the life in heir mother countries, translating them into English, so that Americans and also the younger English speaking members of their household could un- derstand and appreciate their tradl- lions. American art would be greatly enriched thus through the drama of all of the nations whose peoples have settled in this country. On the other hand American ideals, American his tory and American festivals, even laws such as child labor and minimum wage, could be interpreted to these people by means of pageantry.
 "People have been learning not only to work together, but to play togeth- er," Miss MacKaye says, particularly since the war. when the people stood together in drives and large patriotic community entertainments. The op- portunity to build up a great commu- nity organization is now at hand, and the time Is ripe for It. Why not utilize the corner saloon1'

Premier Orlando called this forenoon
upon Col 4. NJ. House of the American

The council of four held no meeting
during the morning. No further com
munications had been received from the
German representatives at Versailles and
the experts to whom the last notes from
Count Won Brockdorff Rantzau had been
referred had not yet reported. No meet
ing of the council being considered to-
day, therefore, President Wilson and the
allied premiers devoted their forenoon
to individual work.
This afternoon President Wilson will
receive Thomas Nelson Page, the Amer.
lean ambassador to Italy, in connection
with the Italian question.
Italian representatives have resumed
complete participation in the pending
peace negotiations, by appointing a mem

Makes Life WorthLivins

You cannot be constipated and happy
at the same time. If almost everything
you eat distresses you, and brings on a
headache, gas on the stomach, heartburn,
etc, you can easily eliminate these con-
ditions by taking SEVEN BARKS, the
favorite root and herb remedy for stom-
aeh disorders.
SEVEN BARKS will expel the dis
tressing acids, and dangerous poisons,
and help you back toNgood digestion and
active health, making life worth living
again
Do you sleep well? or are you troubled
with almost sleepless nights? While
there are many causes for sleeplessness,
it generally happens that deranged stom-
ach, liver or intestines are the real cause
of the trouble. If your appetite is not
good, or food distresses you, or the bow
els do not move daily, you can get quick
relief from these dissgreeable conditions
by simply taking 10 to 20 drops of SEW
EN- BARKS in little water after
meals; this is natures remedy made,
from the extracts of Root and Herbs, has
stood the test for nearly 80 years, and
will certainly give you a feeling of new
life
If you would have the glow of health,
and Danish the blues, don't neglect to
ask your druggist for SEVEN BARKS.

NEED TO REACH
ALIEN WOMEN
Need Extension Schooling
More Than the
Men
TO BRING HER OUT
INTO THE WORLD
Declared Peter A. Speek at
Americanization Con-
ference

Washington, ID. c., May I3-The need
of reaching the foreign born woman with
American ideas, was emphasized by Pet
er A. Speek of the library of congress
to-day at the characterization conference
of the interior department.
"The adult foreign born woman needs
extension schooling more than the man."
Mr., Speek declared, "and to bring the
women out into the American world is
one of the most difficult tasks of Amer
icanization."
He said that while the head of the
family naturally comes in contact with
American speech and ideas in the course
of making a living, his wife generally
remains at home and is unabsorbed by
her newly adopted country. He declared
the problem of educating alien born resi-
dents was acutest in large colonies of
immigrant settlers, especially in rural
communities.
"The school year must be changed to
meet the calendar year as one means of
increasing attendance at the rural
school," he said. "Short vacations could
be given during the farming seasons
5. E. Weber, superintendent Of schools
of Scranton, Pa, told how his city
opened afternoon and evening classes to
reach the foreign born. He declared the
problem of Americanization was pecu-
liarly one for the schools to undertake
Churches, societies, employers and
philanthropies, he said, cannot reach
all classes so well"

DAVE RYAN PAID
FOR DOUGHNUTS
Veteran in U. S. Service Was Broke"
When He Wanted Them But He
More Than Made Up When
He Was Opulent.

Friends of Dave Ryan--and he has q
host of them in many corners of the
globe-will tell you straight: he never
forgets friend. By the same token he
never forgets an injury, either; his re-
tentive memory is not developed on a
one-sided basis. For the past 80 years
he has worn the uniform OF soldier OF
Uncle Sam and practically every army
post in the United States and its pos
sessions has been his home at one time
or another,
When the United States entered the
war Ryan was in harness In the course
of time he found himself at Chateau
Thierry, as cook for the headquarters
company of the 4th infantry, Sd division.
1t is said cook soon grows weary of
his own cooking and one day Cook Ryan
had hankering for doughnuts. He was
broke and he hesitated about going to
the Salvation Army hut. Finally he
'braced" the lassie on duty there, say
ing:
''I'm broke, but honest, lady, l do
want some doughnuts."
"Think three would be enough for a
few minutes 2"
"Iust about"
Better take five and come back for
more if you can hold them"
Five proved to be his limit and as he
left the hut he said, "You folks will hear
from me later"
That was last July.
Yesterday, Thursday, Cook Dave Ryan
entered the Salvation Army doughnut
hut in Union square, New York City
Il got five doughnuts for nothing at
Chateau Thierry last July when was
fiat broke he said Il told the lady /
would be back, or something like that,
but | was moved soon after. Dave Ryan
never forgets a friend and-please take
these five dollar bills for the Saliva
tion Army home service fund. A dollar
doughnut is cheap, but it's all j can
spare"
