TO RELIEVE CATARRH,
CATARRHAL DEAFNESS
AND HEAD NOISES

Persons suffering from catarrhal
deafness, or who are growing hard of
hearing and have head noises will be
glad to know that this distressing af-
fiction can usually be successfully
treated at home by an internal med
icine that in many instances has eff
fected complete relief after Other
treatments failed. Sufferers who
could scarcely hear had their hearing
restored to such an extent that the
tick of a watch was plainly audible
seven or eight inches away from eth
er ear. Therefore, if you know o.
someone who is troubled with heat
noises or catarrhal deafness, cut ou
this formula and hand it to them an
you may have been the means of say
ing some poor sufferer perhaps from
total deafness. The prescription can
be prepared at home and 81 made as
follows:
Secure from your druggist l OF.
Parmint Double Strength.) Take
this home and add to it u pint of hot
water and little graduated sugar
stir until dissolved, Take one table
spoonful four times a day.
Parmint is used in this way not
only to reduce by tonic action the in
fammation and swelling in the Eus-
tachian Tubes, and thus to equalize
the air pressure on the drum, but to
correct any excess of secretions in the
middle ear, and the results it gives
are nearly always quick and effective
Every person who has catarrh in
any form, or distressing rumbling,
Kissing sounds in their ears, should
give this recipe trial.

Paris, Dec. l6.--The danger of a.
possible resumption Of hostilities as
a result Of Germany's attitude to the
protocol OF the treaty is finally avert
ed. The supreme council decided that
the German reply to the allied note,
demanding acceptance of the .proto-
col, was most conciliatory and that
q reply be dispatched to Berlin as
''soon as possible"
The supreme council further or
dered a point session this afternoon
of the allied and German naval ex-
perts to form the compensation they
will take for the sinking of the in
termed German fleet at Scapa Flow.
In addition to the protocol note, the
council took up the question of as
sistance for Austria.
A decision was reached that Amer
lean aid was absolutely necessary if
Austria was to be saved from famine
The council declared that it was nee
essary for the United States to open
credits to Austria to maintain Aus
tria'S territorial integrity.

Washington Dec. 1G.-Deyiating
from usual custom of the court yes
terday, Justice Brandeis did not
keep the large crowd in the court
chamber in suspense until after the
fore announcing that wartime pro-
hibition had been held constitutional
Justice Brandeis announced imme-
uiately that court was convened that
the 'decision of the Louisville court
is reversed, that of the New York
court affirmed
Four contentious of the liquor in
terests that the court swept aside as
not having legal foundation were:
THAT wartime prohibition de-
prived the citizens of their property
without Just compensation in viola
ton of the fifth amendment; that it
became void through the cessation
Of hostlities; that it was repealed by
the provision Of the constitutional
amendment allowing the liquor in
terests a year i'll which to dispose OF
their stocks; that it expired with the
termination of rehabilitation.
The refusal of the court to agree
to any Of these contentious makes
the decision the most sweeping. The
liquor interests. it is believed, have
no way of knocking out the law.
The armistice and the signing OF
the peace treaty at Versailles the
court definitely declared did not CON
stitute the conclusion of the war.
The decision of the court WAS unani.

Roundup, Dec. 16.-The detach-
ment of troops which had been sta
toned here has been withdrawn, in
dicating, it is believed, the early
withdrawal of all of the 400 regular
troops brought to the state from
Camp Lewis on request Of Governor
Sam Stewart The men here, al
though resentful of the action of the
governor in calling for troops when
there had been no disturbances in
any of the camps, practically all re-
turned to work Monday and are pro-
ducing about 5000 tons of coal a
day, it is estimated.
Late last week a number of the
striking miners volunteered to work
sufficiently to produce coal to supply
the urgent needs of the families of
Roundup. This magnanimous action
by the union men relieved the situ-
alton here.
1t was announced that the Klein
mine owned by the Milwaukee rail
road, will furnish some Of it's output
for commercial purposes until the
shortage is relieved.

the contents OF the 90 cars would
not be drawn upon only in emer-
gency cases, as the opening of the
mines was considered Of first i'm
portance to Butte.
The small shipment Of six cars
Of domestic coal was very welcome
there was very little coal in the
hands Of the dealers. The crisis has
in no sense passed, according to
those in a position to know, as it
will be impossible for regular ship
ments of coal to begin to arrive in
Butte for the next several days.
Four more cars are expected to
arrive in the city some time during
the week from the great lal1s coun-
try. 1t is also expected that the
Diamondville mines, which are own
cd by the Anaconda Mining COM
rany, will begin shipping domestic
coal into Butte within short time.
1t is rumOred that with the COM
