CATARRHAL DEAFNESS
AND HEAD NOISES
Tells Safe and Simple Way to
Treat and Relieve at
Home.

If you have catarrh, catarrhal
deafness or head noises caused BY ca-
tarrh, or if phlegm drops in your
throat and has caused catarrh of the
stomach or bowels you will be glad
to know that these distressing symp-
toms may be entirely overcome in
many instances by the following
treatment which you can easily pre-
pare in your own home at little cost.
Secure from your druggist | ounce Of
Parmint Double Strength Take
this home and add to it one-fourth
pint of water and a little granulated
sugar; stir until dissolved. Take
one tablespoonful four times day.
And Improvement is sometimes noted
after the first days treatment.
Breathing should become easy, while
the distressing head noises, head
aches, dullness, cloudy thinking, ETC..
should gradually disappear under the
tonic action of the treatment. Loss
of smell, taste, defective hearing and
mucus dropping in the back Of the
throat are other symptoms which
suggest the presence of catarrh and
which may often be overcome by this
e'tscacious treatment. It is said that
nearly ninety per cent. Of all ear
troubles are caused by catarrh and
there must, therefore, be many peo-
pie whose hearing may be restored
by this simple, harmless, home treat
ment.

The Bath Habit.

In the eighteenth century the bath
was seasons event, and soap was al
most thing unknown. II was scarce
~ ever used, or at least infrequently.
1t was by no means indispensable as
a toilet necessity. And most OF us
can recall the time, muses. an ex.
change, when Saturday night was re-
ligiously dedicated to the weekly
bath. That is why we all appreci.
ate the story Of the woman who wrote
her friend: 1--WE just moved into
new apartment. II has the cutest
bathtub. l can hardly wait until Sat-

DIRECT PRIMARY BILL.

Elsewhere in this issue will be
found an outline OF a bill now before
the legislature proposing changes in
the direct primary law. 1t is a COM
bination of the present law with the
convention system, and It's purpose is
TO remedy some of the defects In the
present law.
The primary Is retained for the
nomination OF county officers and
district judges, and for the election
of delegates to state conventions.
The cost OF holding primary cleo
tions, other than for ballots and
other supplies, is placed upon the
Eeveral parties. A saving of approx
imately $1,000 will be made in this
county II the bill becomes a law.
The measure is said to meet with
much favor, and its passage is pre-
dicted.
