When Is Liquor intoxicating ?

W/HEN Congress was debating the Vol
w stead bill the defenders of that meas
urc argued galanty, and with success. that
one-half OF per cent of alcohol in a given
quantity OF beverage was fixed as the legal
limit because more alcohol than that would
render the drink intoxicating This debate
is no doubt fresh in the minds OF many
thousands of people. for it was around sec
ton Of the bill. which lcgislatcd upon this
point that the most ferocious fight was
made.
Having convinced a large majority of
House members of the merit OF this conten-
ton, that body voted favorably upon section
on the ground that the eighteenth amend
mcnt to the Constitution prohibited the
manufacture and sale Of Intoxicating liquors
III l per cent Of alcohol, therefore. would
intoXicute, it would be unconstitutional TO
allow the manufacture of beverage con-
tanning such an amount
1t must be stated, however, that a grea.
many people outside the Congress were left
unconvinccd upon this point. and are still
unconvinccd. Among them, apparently, are
the enforcement officers OF the bureau of
Internal Revenue. Those officers, after con
sultinS both experience and their legal adj
Visers, issued Il ruling to the effect that
cider and fruit juices fermented AT home for
homo consumption might legally contain
more than onc-half of ! per cent. This
ruling was based upon the fact that such
elders and fruit juices are not intoxicating.

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. Catarrh-
al Deafness is caused by an inflamed
condition of the mucous lining OF
Eustachian Tube. When this tube
is inflamed you have rumblinG
sound or imperfect hearing, and
when it is entirely closed, deafness
is the result Unless the inflamma-
ton can be reduced and this tube
restored to it's normal condition.
hearing will be destroyed forever.
Many cases Of deafness are caused
by catarrh, which is an inflamed
condition of the mucous surfaces.
Halls Catarrh Medicine acts thru
the blood on the mucous surfaces of
the system.
We will give One Hundred Dol
lars for any case of Catarrhal Medi-
cine. Circulars free. All Druggists,
