Catarrhal Deafness Cannot Be Cured

only one way to cure Catarrhal Deafness
and that is by constitutional remedy
HALLS CATARRH MEDICINE acts
through the Blood on the Mucous Surfaces
Of the System. Catarrhal Deafness is
caused by inflamed condition of the
mucous lining of the Eustachian Tube.
When this tube Is inf1amed you have
rNmbling sound or imperfect hearing, and
when 1t Is entirely closed, Deafness is the
result. Unless the Inflammation be re-
dpced and this tube restored to its
NAL condition, hearing may be destroyed
forever. Many cases of Deafness are
caused by Catarrh, which is an inflamed
condition of the Mucous Surfaces.

Good Looks by Study

The Cri de Paris, the weekly gos-
sip magazine, says that Mai. Sir VII
liam Orpen, the painter. who is still
working on pictures of the peace con
ference, was haunted by the idea, when
he was young. that the was very ugly.
He used to turn his face aside in
the street to avoid being seen.
Working as an art student, he no
ticed that his fellow-pupils, by dint
of mental concentration upon the beau-
tiful models of antiquity, gradually
came somewhat TO resemble them in
their own features. Orpen eagerly
awaited promotion to the same class.
and determined to spend all his time
copying the Venus de Milo. 81 shall
thus acquire her admirable expression
of naughty serenity" he said. "Un-
fortunately" he continues, when I
was promoted to copying antiquity my
master made me spend the whole year
drawing nothing but The Dancing
Faun.' so that never realized my am
bition."

The story Of winter wraps has
reached it's climax. as II always does,
with the arrival of the opera season.
1t begins early in the fall with re-
cital of the affairs of the stalwart
coats that must bear the brunt of real
service throughout the winter. and
progresses through many an engross-
ing chapter dealing with more preten-
tious garments. Finally comes the
resume of the brief and splendid
careers OF evening wraps, some OF
them wholly frivolous. But each sea-
son witnesses certain coats that are as
rich and as useful as any; they are
the best efforts of the CO. turiers. and
include the Incompatible coats of fine
furs.
In the same class with these. so far
as beauty Is concerned. are the two
impressive wraps that the camera has
reported with such fidelity, shown
above. They are made of the hand
soonest fur fabrics and completed with
collars of natural fur of the best
grades. Each is worthy Of the other.
The Aberdeen weekly., 1919-11-28

The coat at the left is made up OF
lustrous and very beautiful material
which is replica Of broadtail. 1t is
ample ard enveloping with lines that
are managed with wonderful skill, so
that ii seems to cling to the figure.
The sleeves have deep. fiaring cuffs
that partly cover the hands. There is
the simplest of narrow girdles at the
front and a big. luxurious shawl collar
Of fox fur. No brocade. however
rich. or cloth of gold can outclas3
magnificent furs or do more than vie
wit as perfect semblance of them
as appears In this coat.
The textile fur In the coat at the
right Is like sealskin, but more supple
1t has cape-yoke and sleeves cut in
one with the body. Its lining is silk
crepe and the wide collar and deep
cuffs are of martin fur. The design Is
especially becoming to slender figures
and the coat is SO excellent in style
and rich in appearance that 1t belongs
in the class with sealskin. Like coats
of natural fur, these may appear day
or night at any sort Of function.

Although there has been a certain
amount of reaction, in the direction
of simplicity in fur garments. the mode
finds place for much that may not tie

ing small wraps that embodied several

were endlessly ingenious and the clev-

them a charm that made very sue

In the wide scarfs of brushed or an
CORA wool that are furnished with
belts to match.
Among the new models those that
are most like scarf. prove to be the
most useful. By discarding the belt
they may be worn with a tailored suit
when extra warmth is required. Worn
with one-piece frock and belted down
they become coatee. wonderfully
becoming and convenient for afternoon
or evening wear. One of the best OF
the new models of this kind appears
at the right OF the two shown In the
picture. 1t is made In several furs:

ing dark stripe are best. 1t IL shown
