is not the least doubt then that the flu

CUT THIS OUT
OLD ENGLISH RECIPE FOR CATARRH
CATARRHAL DEAFNESS AND
HEAD NOISES

II you know Of some one who is troubled
with Catarrhal Deafness, head noises or or
binary catarrh cut out this formula and hand
it to them and you may have been the means
of saving some poor sufferer perhaps from
total deafness. In England scientists for a
long time past have recognized that catarrh
is a constitutional disease and necessarily
requires cons titutional treatment.
Sprays, inhalers and nose douches La
BILE to irritate the delicate air pas ages and
force the disease into the middle which
frequently means total deafness, else the
disease may be driven down the air passages
towards the lungs which is equally as dan
gerous. The following formula which is used
extensively in the damp English climate is
a constitutional treatment and should prove
especially efficacious to sufferers here who
live under more favorable climate conditions.
Secure from your druggist l ounce of
Parmint double strength. Take this home
and add to it one-fourth pint of hot water
and little granulated sugar; stir until dis
solved. Take one tablespoonful four times a
day. This will often bring quick relief from
distressing head noises Clogged nostrils
should open, breathing become easy and
hearing improve as the inflammation in the
eustachan tubes is reduced. Parmnt used
in this way acts directly upon the blood and
mucous surfaces of the system and has a
tonic action that helps to obtain the desired
results. The preparation is easy to make,
costs little and is pleasant to take. Every

Turks had sentenced it. told last sun
day How Charles A. Dams, manager
OF a Presbyterian missionary printing
plant, organized and carried on
throughout the war q secret system
of smuggling food into the doomed
villages of the Lebanon mountains
back OF Beirut. is a story which finds
is sequel in the work of the American
Red Cross and the American Commit
tee for relief in the near east. No
sooner had the occupation of Beirut
by British and French forces on October
9. 1918, freed the Beirut mericans of
the conditions OF secrecy which the
presence OF the enemy had imposed
upon them, than the American Red
Cross followed the British army into
the Lebanon. Within two weeks, the
first American Red Cross soup kitche n
was in operation in Beirut. Within
a month from the date of the occu-
patton, the American Red Cross had
thrust its aid into the eager hands
which awaited it in every village of
the Lebanon. The work which had been
carried on secretly while the enemy was
in Beirut was carried on with every
encourag cement from the British army.
1t is still going on. Just now, how
ever, the American Red Cross has COM
pleted the work of caring for the
emergency needs of the Lebanon's sur
vivors and is being demobilized. The
American committee for relief in the
near east, with field headquarters at
Constantinople, is taking up the more
permanent phases of American relief
in the Lebanon and will continue here
until the Lebanon is healed of Its
wounds.
In some form or other, the near east

white star-will continue their work

the establishment of an orphans city
of 5000 Lebanon orphans in the Bukaa'
valley of the Lebanon. The rearing
of these bereft Syrian kiddes is not
a job which can be completed this
year or next year.
According to an agreement drawn up
on March between DR.. James l.. Bar

lief and Col. John H. Finley, American
Red Cross commissioner to Palestine,
while both were riding in a truck on
