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 constitutional remedy.
HALLS CATARRH MEDICINE acts
through the Blood on the Mucous Surfaces

caused by an infiamed condition of the
mucous lining of the Eustachian Tube.
When this tube is indamed you bevo a

when it is entirely closed, Deafness, is the
result. Unless the Inflammation can be re-
duced and this tube restored to it's nor

When Cork Is Driven in Bottle.

When a cork slides down inside a
bottle it is very difficult to get it out
unless one has the necessary tools,
and they are not always available,
writes Victor H. Todd, in Popular Sci
ence Monthly.
A good way to extract 1t is to grease
then hold the bottle under cold water.
When the bottle is. as cold as pos
sible spear the cork with hat pin,
or even shake it until it blocks the
neck of the bottle and sets straight
with the neck. Then gradually heat
the bottle or pour hot water oyer it
and the expanding air will generally
force the cork out with a slight pop.

What Reservations Do.
The ten reservations adopted &C
cOmplish these things:
Forbid the acceptance of any man
datory by the United States without
the consent of congress.
.sTake away from the League of Ma
lions all jurisdiction over American
domestic affairs, such as immigration,
the tariff, labor, boundaries, and coast

the United States in any dispute
which may arise between Japan and
China under the terms of that settle
ment.

ale the right to veto any appointment

Means Death of Treaty?
The sweeping character of the ac-
ton completed the defeat of the adj
ministration senators in their fight
against reservations and, in the opin-
ion of leaders on both sides, seals the
doom of the treaty.
Senator Underwood of Alabama,
slated as the next leader of the senate
Democrats, said that not less than 30
Democrats would vote against ratifica-
ton because of the reservations, and
Senator Borah of Idaho. leader of the
Republican irreconcilables, was conf
dent there would be Is to Is Repub-
lican votes against ratification under
all circumstances.
Senator Lodge was convinced that
the treaty was dead. In the face OF
the repeated assertions of the Demo-
cratic leaders, Senator Lodge said he
could no longer doubt they intended
to vote against the Lodge ratification
resolution and that the effect of their
action meant nothing less than the
death of the treaty.
The final vote on the Lodge ratify-
ing resolution may be reached today.
When ii is defeated the Democrats
hope to resurrect the treaty under a
new form of parliamentary procedure
and hold the pact in a deadlock until
some of the mild reseryationists are

RAISING RATTLESNAKES
Find There Is a Good Livinu in 4
Farm for That Purpose.

r'nd There Is a Good Living in a
Farm for That Purpose.
The queerest farm in the Ozarks is
that of Miss Rose Ahern and her
brother, Henry. Several miles up In
dian creek, in the heart of the rockiest
and toughest part Of the hills and
bluffs, this brother and sister operate
what they call their diamond rattle
snake farm" And, being in a neigh
borhood where snakes are plentiful,
they are doing a thriving business.
For three years the Aherns have
been following this business, and they
will probably have 300 or 400 snakes
this season. They expect to do far
better than ever before, now that the
war has ended. The principal profits
come from the extracting Of poison
from the rattlesnakes, which is sold at
high prices to doctors, chemists and
others. Physicians use this poison,
after it has been prepared in a scien-
tific manner, for the treatment Of cpl
lepsy and other diseases. 1t is known
as crotalin.
They also get a good revenue from
the sale of live reptiles to museums
and travelling shows. The established
rate is 2 cents a pound. A large, fat
serpent usually brings several dollars.
The smaller, poorer specimens are
killed and rendered into oil, which
has steady sale at 81 an ounce.

SAW OWN TOMBSTONE
Maine Soldier With Canadians Read
His Name There.


Milford G. Cakes Of Patten, Me-,
who returned home after a remarkable
record Of service in a Canadian ar
tillery regiment, had the experience,
near Cambria, of viewing his own
grave, with his name inscribed on a
rude slab over the last resting place.
He took snapshot of the grave as
a souvenir.
Cakes was severely wounded sew
eral times. In one battle when he
was wounded he lost his identif1ca-
ton card. His jaws were shot away,
making it impossible for him to COM
municate his identity, and as he was
missing from his company his death
was finally reported. Some other SOL
der was buried under his name.
A surgical operation gave him new
jawbones, and today one has to ex-
anime his face carefully to find the
scars.
When young Cakes enlisted in 1914
he was seventeen, but his discharge
papers give his age as twenty-five
years. This is because he was so anx-
ious to enlist that he raised his age.
Cakes has been cited for bravery and
has received medal of honor.

HOOVER WILL Spend
$178,ooo,ooo IN Relief
100000 for Special Care to
Save Nursing Mothers and
Children.

In recent report issued by Herbert
Hoover, director general of the Amer
lean relief administration, announce
ment is made that the relief program
assumed by this organization will cost
approximately $178,O0O,OOO. This pro-
gram covers the relief Of Poland, Fin
land, and the Baltic states, Czecho-
Slovakia, Jugo-Slavia, Roumania and
Christian and Jewish Turkey. Two mill
lions of this $178,OOO,OOO is being spent
for supplementary rations and special
care to save the children and nursing
mothers Of these nations. This work
is purely charity. The rest Of the re-
lief work is either being paid for by
the governments themselves or is
being financed by the $1OO,OOO,OOO
fund appropriated by congress for
this purpose. This fund is used to
advance loans to those governments of
the recently liberated nations which
cannot offer the proper securities and
otherwise would be unable to pay for
the food they must have.
The American relief administration
has signed contracts with the various
governments that are in need to fur
nish them with food of fixed value
every month until their need is satis-
fed. Already this organization has
sent for the relief Of Europe total
Of 1,013,O50 tons of American bread
stuffs, fats, milk, clothing, and SUM-
dries. The tonnage was divided as
follows: Breadstufs, 926,329 tons;
fats, 107,436; milk, 25,O34; clothing,
1884; sundries, 46717. In Jugo-Sla-
via, Czecho-Slovakia, and Roumania
alone, food to the value of $54,OOO,OOO
has been distributed.
Although the need of these coun-
tries Of relief from the outside is i'm
perative at present, it is thought that
most of them will be able to stand on
their own feet with the harvesting of
this years crops. The American re-
lief administration plans to withdraw
its support on July 1. With this end
In view, Mr.. Hoover has called upon
the various governments which are
now being helped to establish their
own machinery for the rehabilitation
Of their economic life.

ST. PAUL AND
Steel PROPELLER FOR
USE ON AIRPL ANES
Prof. Morgan Brooks of Univer.
sity Of Illinois Develops
New Device.

Morgan Brooks, professor of cleo
trlcal engineering at the University of
Illinois, has developed a practically
noiseless, high-speed, steel airplane
propeller, intended for direct connec-
ton with the highest speed gasoline
engine, according to announcement at
Urbana, III.
A considerable loss of power is now
endured in the reduction speed gear
used in all but the smallest airplanes,
as airplane engines have a normal
speed greater than the two-biadd5
wooden propeller can stand.
This was Of special interest to Brig.
Gen. L. E. O. Charlton, air attache
to the British embassy at Washington,
VINO saw the models tested at the
university recently.
1.-THE laws of air dynamics are suf-
ficiently we'll known to make a test of
model almost conclusive as to the
results to be expected from full
sized propeller" Professor Brooks
said. "At the same speed the thrust
or pull Of propeller varies with the
fourth power of a dimension, there
fore the pull Of five pounds found on
test of an 18-inch model indicates a
pull Of 80 pounds Of a propeller Of
36 inches in diameter. The test was
made below standard speed, so a nor
NAL thrust would be obtained for a
practice plane with only SO inches d.
ameter, as compared to the 8~foot
spread of the planes used in Chanute
field, Rantoul, ILL.,"
The particular advantage of small
diameter would be the lifting of the
landing wheels to a position much
nearer the center of gravity axis,
thus making poor landing much SAT-
er from avoidance Of headers, not I'M
common with the present type Of
planes, Professor Brooks said.

AS regards the food it is in the ma

furnished to the prisoners by the Ger

now receiving 800 additional grams
Of bread day, which, with the reg

The actual distribution Of these sup
plies is in the hands Of the American
army detachments at each camp,
This problem Of finding work and
occupation for the prisoners is one Of
the most difficult with which we have
to contend. At Ruhleben the difficulty
Is Increased by the fact that, unlike
most Of the other camps where per-
haps one-half Of the prisoners are at
work on the farms in the vicinity, here
the men have no regular occupation.
We are meeting this problem by pro-
vid1ng athletic supplies and organizing
games. The Russians are not an ath-
letic people, however; they are much
more interested in our efforts to sup
ply them with musical instruments.
