The Mechanics are a secret benefi-
cial order. Their patriotic motive is
to maintain the public schools and the
reading of the Bible therein. The
education of Jew and gentle, Catholic
and Protestant, rich and poor therein
teaches the common brotherhood of
man by removing social caste, race
and religious p%rejudices and race ha-
tired. 1t creates thereby a democracy
for superior mind and morals with
equal opportunities for all.

Catarrhal Deafness Cannot Be Cured

by local applications, as they cannot reach
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
perfect hearing. and when it is entirely
closed, Deafness is the result. Unless the
can be reduced and this tube
will be destroyed forever. Many cases OF
deafness are caused by catarrh. which is
an infamed condition Of the mucous sur

Saw General DUPONT

Paris, Feb. 10-The Echo de Paris
today prints an account of a recent
incident in Berlin which might have
resulted in the withdrawal of the Brit
ish prisoners mission had not an apol-
ogy been offered by Count Won Brock
..dorff- Rantzau the Foreign Minister:
: According to the account, the chief
of the British mission for the regula-
ton of prisoners found it necessary to
have a conversation with the Foreign
Minister and proceeded to Wilhelm
strasse and sent up his card to Count
Won Brockdorff- Rantzau. A secretary
made his appearance and after eXcus-
ing the Foreign Minister, said:
.However, you can tell me he OBJ
iect of your visit and / shall refer the
matter to the Secretary of State"
The British officer declined this in
vitation and brought the interview
with the junior officials to an end:
Immediately afterward he Informed
General DUPONT, the French commander
of what had happened. Later he dis
patched a telegram to Marchal Foch,
requesting that the entire Allied mis-
sion be recalled.
The dispatch had hardly been hand
ed IN than count NOn lsdle
Eau sent an urgent message to Gener-
al DUPONT, saying the Foreign Minister
was anxious to see General dupont In
person in order to apologize for what
had occurred.
Heard From American DuPOnts
Americans are pleased to learn that
there is a General dupont on the hrlng
line in France, from where the Amer
lean duPonts came in 1904 at the so
licitation of Thomas Jefferson, then
President.
The Germans have heard from the
American duPonts the past 4 years. In
fact a prominent British official said
that it was due to dupont powder that
the Allies won the war. That powder
was mostly made IN Carnets Point by
Penns Grove workmen. Every worker
should feel his own Importance in n a
he made his best efforts to win the
war by being an efficient workman.
Dupont powder behind shot and shell
sent the Kaiser to his forlorn hell.
