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 a constitutional remedy.
HALLS CATARRH MEDICINE acts
through the Blood on the Mucous Surfaces
of the System. Catarrhal Deafness is
caused by an infiamed condition OF the
mucous lining of the Eustachian Tube.
When this tube is infiamed you have a
rumblng sound or imperfect hearing, and
when It is entirely closed. Deafness is the
result. Unless the Inflammation can be re-
duced and this tube restored to its nor
mai condition, hearing may be destroyed
forever MANY cases of Deafness are
caused by Catarrh. which is an infiamed
condition of the Mucous Surfaces.

This incident occurred during debate
on the Knox peace resolution, which
was to- be- voted on within few days.

chased much from her.
THE war which the senntor from
Pennsylvania proposes 10 end by this
resolution does not, by his own admis-
sion, exist. His able argument and
historical citations prove that it ended
many months ago What then, is the
senator from Pennsylvania attempting
10 do by this measure, which he calls
resolution to terminate the war? He is
making an utterly futile and hopeless
attempt to make peace settlement

doings of the Socialist convention in

Eugene V. Debs for the presidency
which has grown into habit-despite
the fact that Mr. Debs is serving time
for violating the espionage act. In its
