Third Annual Mobilization

Washington, March 30.--That the

brought together representatives OF:
twelve corps of workers who carry
on, despite the fact that the task for
which they were originally organized

Opportunities for service are not

last year from the twelve active corps

declared was just as urgent now that
the war emergency is past as it was
when the nation was mobilizing its
forces for the battlefield.
During the war, universal SER

higher plane. Now that the war is

Catarrhal Deafness Cannot Be Cured

by local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased pirtion OF the ear.
There is only one way to cure ca
tarrhal deafness, and that is by a
constitutional remedy. Catarrhal
Deafness is caused by an infiamed
condition of the mocous lining OF the
Eustachian Tube. When this tube
is infiamed you have rumbling
sound or imperfect hearing, and
when it is entirely closed, Deafness
is the result. Unless the inflammation
can be reduced and this tube restor-
ed to it's normal condition, hearing
will be destroyed forever. Many
cases of deafness are caused by ca
tarrh, which is an infiamed condition
of the mucous surfaces. Hairs Ca
tarrh Medicine acts thru the blood
on the mucous surfaces of the sys-
tenn.
We will give One Hundred Dollars
for any case of Catarrhal Deafness
that cannot be cured by Halls Ca
tarrh Medicine Circulars free.
