Catarrhal Deafness Cannot Re Cured

by local applications, as they cannot reach the diseased portion of the ear. There is only one way to cure catarrhal aea1ness. and that is by constitutional remedy. Catarrhal Deafness is caused by an in- famed condition of the mucous lining of the Eustachian Tube When this tube is inhamed you have 0 runblng sound or im- perfect hearing and when it is entirely closed, Deafness is the result. Unlesg the inflammation can be reduced and this tube restored to it's normal condition, hearing will be destroyed foraver Many cases of deafness are caused by catarrh, which a an inhamed condition of the mucous sur faces. Halls Catarrh Medicine acts thru the blood on the mucous surfaces of the system.
 We will give One Hundred Dollars for my case Of Catarrhal Deafness that cannot be cured by Ealrs Catarrh Medicine. Cir@ Gulare free. All Druggists f5e

If anything can get the people in that section to thinking the Bald Knob road should and yet over half the knockers live inside of the pro posed Bald Knob district. Better get busy bowling for the next twenty years won't get you out of what you will get in if we don't get this road, for we offer for every ones taxes a good road to his town. Every other town in the county has a good road have a little pride-let's build one to Judonia or forever hide our faces with shame to say that this noted berry district voted down a good road.
 This would sure look nice in print in the Gazette next day after election. We'll, I have said more than 1 expect ed to say but l feel like the subject is worth talking about lots for it is very important matter.

PREPARE TO PREVENT WAR"
Uupreparedness Made War Cost Huge
 Kahn Declares.

Washington. March 9.-Adequate preparation to guard against future wars was urged by Representative Kahn of California, chairman of the house committee on military affairs, today, in discussing the army reorgan- ization bill in the house.
 Mir. Kahn urged the need of univer- sal training, which is not included in the present measure, but will be brought up separately later on.
 'The war cost us in nineteen months including our loans to the allies, 33 billion dollars, sum that is simply staggering" said Mir. Kahn. ''This burden is placed on the taxpayers be- cause We were unprepared. If we had been prepared We would have avoided this burden. 1t is strange thing in war that the heaviest burden fails or the masses. It is for the poor people of the country that speak of want their sons protected against war The only way to protect them against wal IS to have the country prepared.

 our rights"

INFANT MORTALITY INCREASE.
Lack of Medical Attention in Remote
 Districts the Cause.

Washington, March 14.-Lack of adequate medical attention in remote rural districts has tended to increase infant mortality, according to a state ment issued today by the children's bureau of the labor department, founded on survey of five widely separated counties. The study was promoted by census reports showing that death from premature birth had increased from III per cent in 1910 to 21.4 in 1917, and death from in- juries at birth from 3,2 per cent to 4.6.
 The investigation conducted by the bureau showed that 99 out of 162 chil- dren born in the five rural communi- ties died before they were one month old.

Missouri Town Fears Breaking of Great Power Dam-Dcadly TOrna- do Visits Nevada, Mo.-Creeks
 Bankfull and Rising.

Branson. Mo, March 12.-IIigh wat CT loomed today as further menace to life and property in Fancy county, heart of the Shepard of the Hills" county, where tornado late yester- day took at least eleven lives, brought injury to numerous persons and caused property damage the extent of which cannot be estimated until com plete reports are received from the localities visited by the storm.
 Incessant rains which preceded and followed the tornado have sent every stream in the Ozarks bank full, and if the precipitation should continue, 1t was declared today, the danger from floods will become serious.
 Big Dam May Break.
 Especial anxiety was felt today by residents of Powersite, on the White river. where is located large hydro electrical plant which furnishes cur rent for many south Missouri towns, including Joplin and Springfield. The stream at that point contains a dam 90 feet high and 600 feet long. The river. which is one of the largest in south Missouri, is reported bank-full and rising rapidly. However. reports today were that the dam was holding back the floodwaters.
 
 Springfield, Mo, March 12.-The tornado apparently cut a swath thru a territory between Nevada, Mo. where three were killed, and Melva. where the tornado spent it's force. All creeks and rivers in the area are bankfull and rising rapidly.
 Telephones lines are down so that communication with outlying towns from Branson, Forsyth and Hollister is impossible. Meagre reports only of damage done in the numerous villages which dot the Ozark hills are availa- ble.

LONG LITIGATION MAY SOON CLOSE
Started in 1921 by Seizure of $7O,4OO by Chilean Soldiers, Court Asked to Dispose of $17,531 for Which
 Heirs Cannot Be Found.
tRv International News Service. !


 Boston, March 12.-Royalty, for eign merchants century ago and some of Boston's oldest families are involved in the 10O-year-old suit re- sulting from the seizure by Chilean soldiers in 1921 of $7O,4OO, and on which decision is expected soon from the Federal Court of this city follow ing years of litigation and searching for the rightful owners of $17,531- all that remains of the money.
 The $7O,400 was the proceeds of a cargo of goods imported from China by Captain Eliphalet Smith, acting for several individuals. and which were sold by him in Peru.
 The $i7 ,531 is now in possession of the heirs of the original counsel for the claimants, who, being unable to find the rightful owners, appealed to the Federal Court for instructions. The claimants of the money are the United States, Chile. the Public Ad- ministrator of Suffolk county, with the possibility of China also seeking her share.
 In 181 Captain Smith, with his brig Macedonian, arrived in Peru with his cargo. The cargo was sold for $7O,- 400 and Captain Smith held the money for his representatives and owners of the brig.
 While he was ashore one night dur ing the war between Spain and Chili, Chilean soldiers contending that the money in question was a lawful prize of war because a Spaniard names Arizamandi was entitled to two-fifths of it, seized it.
 The seizure of the money was re- ported to the United States authori- ties, who took up the matter because concerned were Americans. The Chil- can Government resisted the claim until 1858. when a treaty was entered whereby the question was submitted to the King of the Belgians for arbi- tration.
 iib d uCdiluE Ou lhc QuNSllOn in Brussels, the King, in May, 1863, decided that Chile was accountable to the United States for three-fifths of the sum, which, with interest amount ed to $6l,9 ,93S. The money was paid over to the United States, and in American money amounted to $93,905. 1. The money was paid over by the Government to William H. Gardiner, of Brookline, who was counsel for the several claimants. and who distrib- uted all but $17,5S1.20. The s17.531.20 was due to Paqua Moqu and Furber, but not one of them could be found. In 1882 Mir Gardiner died. all of his affairs being left Tn the hands of James r. Gardiner as administrator
 In 1908 the latter Gardiner died. leaving the estate to Robert H. Gar diner, of Maine, and Robert H. Gardi- ner. IT,, of Needham, both of whom have also been unable to locate the missing heirs of their legal represen- tatives.

London, March l4-The new revo- lutionary monarchist government in Germany rapidly is gaining control of the entire country. dispatches indi. cated last night.
 Leaders of the Ebert regime have been arrested, the former president himself is in flight and the larger German cities are joining the revolu. tionists.
 Won HeIfferich Is Chancellor
 Dispatches reporting the arrest of Gustav Noske. President Ebefts minis ter of defense and from a military standpoint the strong man in the Ebert group, were considered most signifi- cant. Observers here believed that the one chance of successful military op- position to the reyolutionists rested with Noske.
 Berlin reports said that Dr. Won Kapp, who assumed the chancellor ship when the revolutionists seized Berlin yesterday morning, has relin- quished that post in favor of Dr. Karl yon Helffarich and has taken the posi- tion of dictator, with supreme control of Germany
 Won Jagow Back in Office.
 Dr. Von Jagow. former foreign min. ister under the imperial regime while Dr. Won Bethmann- -Holllweg was chan. cellor, has been appointed to that post it was reported.
 Reports that the Ebert government had established itself at Dresden were followed by dispatches declaring that Dresden and Munich had gone over tc the revolutionists.
 Officials of the new government de clare that it is not reactionary or mon archist.
 Despite these denials. there was every indication that the new govern ment was led and controlled exclu sively by known monarchists of the olC Prussian militarist clique. Ever! name mentioned in the dispatches il that of known reationary, officials here said.
