Consul Gauss explains that Shantung
is the most densely populated province
in China. Its inhabitants are estimated
to be So.sos,245 and its area Is b5,9s4
square miles. A large part Of the prov
ince Is sparsely settled and the density
of population In other districts Is cor
respondingly Increased. The famine
area covers the most densely populated
part Of the province.
THE population Ia so great that one
poor harvest causes distress to thousands

invariably brings famine and disaster

Consul Gauss 1.-THE millions In these
districts are dependent almost entirely
on the products OF the soil. and the pro-
ductive area Is insufficient for the sup
port OF the population. A famine In
1S77-78 is said to have caused the death
OF 100000 In Shantung. Shansl. Honan
and Chill. The famine OF 1920-21 Ia Of
alarming proportions and the toll In
life Is certain TO run into heavy figures.

To Relieve Catarrh,
Catarrhal Deafness
And Head Noises

Persons suffering from catarrhal
deafness. or who are growing hard OF
hearing and have head noises will be
glad to know that this distressing
affiiction can usually be successfully
treated at home by an internal medl-
cine that in many instances has ef-
fected complete relief after other
trea tments have failed. Sufferers who
could scarcely hear have had their
hearing restored to such an extent
that the tick of watch was plainly
audible seven or eight inches away
from either ear. Therefore, if you
know of someone who is troubled with
head noises or catarrhal deafness. cut
out this formula >and hand it to them
and you may have been the means Of
saving some poor sufferer perhaps
from total deafness. The prescription
can be prepared at home and is made
as follows:
Secure from your druggist OF. Par
mint Double Strength). Take this
home and add to it u pint of hot
water and a little granulated sugar;
stir until dissolved. Take one table
spoonful four times a day.
Parmint is used in this way not
only to reduce by tonic action the in
f1ammation and swelling in the Eu-
stachian Tubes. and thus to equalize
the air pressure on the drum, but to
correct any excess of secretions in the
middle ear. and the results it gives are
nearly always quick and effective.
Every person who has catarrh in
any form, or distressing rumbling
kissing sounds in their ears, should
give this recipe a trial-Ady

DEMOCRATIC POLICY OF Oh.
STRUcTlON

Day by day the evidence accumu-
lates that the administration is max
ing every endeavor to meet its OBJ
legations, keep its promises. and per-
form the greatest tasks to which the
hands Of any administration ever
were set. At first it was said it had
no back bone, no policies and no
ability to accomplish. The days
work has disproved it but has re-
vealed the magnitude of the work it
had inherited from those prepared
neither for war nor for peace.
While some of the Republicans in
Congress have not risen to the full
stature of the place they hold and
some Democrats have risen superior
to the tricks of partisanship on ques-
tons affecting our national honor, it
nevertheless is clear that the Demo-
cratic organization in Congress may
cnly be depended on to obstruct ev-
cry measure intended for relief of the
present abnormal conditions of the
country.
Senator Harrison, the Democratic
floor leader in the Senate. few days
ago tried to make. political capital
out of the fact that the President oc-
occa sionally takes an afternoon off
duty, and has missed no opportunity
to throw monkey wrenches into the
machinery This attitude was put
up to him souarely the other day by
Senator Watson, who drew conpa-
rison between the former method
used in the days when the Demo-
cratic party took its orders from the
President and that Of today when
Congress is trying evolve the legisla-
ton required. by discussion and con-
sideration in the hope to cause the
reinvestnent of capital and the pro-
viding of full time employment. He
showed that this was being done

tie Democratic party which is ready
to oppose anything favored by the
Republican majority. The following
colloquy ensued and serves to show
the attitude of Democratic manage
rnent in Congress.
Mr.. Watson. The Senator will op-
pose the railroad bill when it comes
up.
Mr.. Harrison. I certainly will.
Mr.. Watson. And that is on the
program.
Mr.. Harrison. Yes.
Mr.. Watson. And the Senator will
oppose the foreign debt funding bill

Mr. Watson. And the Senator will

Anything on the program is an

in Congress
