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. Catarrhal
Deafness Is caused by an infiamed condition
Of the mucous lining of the Eustachian Tube,
When this tube Is infamed you have a rum
bling sound or imperfect hearing. and when
II is entirely closed. Deafness is the result
Unless the illumination can be reduced and
this tube restored to its normal condition
hearing will be destroyed forever. Many
cases of deafness are caused by catarrh, which
Is an infamed condition OF the mucous sur.

blood on the mucous surfaces OF the system

WN2@ncwW From Virginia
~ came most of
the settlers of the western state,
and with them these pioneers
brought Virginia institutions
and ideals. 1t was not until
1850 that the first authentic
journey was made by a white
man into central parts of the
region afterwards called Ken
lucky.
Further explorations showed
that this territory held two i'm
portant attractions for settlers.
The first was the great fertility
of what was called the Blue
Grass region. The so-called
blue grass, from which this
state is nicknamed the "Blue
Grass State" is In no wise Pc
culiar to Kentucky.
The second inducement for
settlers was the fact that there
e no Indians living In this
region. 1t was later found that
many rowing bands of savages
crossed the Ohio from the north
and sorely harassed the early
colonists until Clark's expedi-
tions into Ohio and Indiana
checked their invasions. In fact,
the name Kentucky is probably
derived from the Iroquois word
kentka-ke, meaning hunting
land" Another Interpretation
is "dark and bloody ground"
but this is doubtless incorrect.
The main highways of travel
at that time were Daniel
Boone's evidences Road"
through Cumberland Gap and
down the Ohio. Hardy pioneers
poured into this new territory
in such numbers that in 1892,
with the permission of Virginia,
Kentucky was admitted to the
Union as the fifteenth state with
an area of 4O,59S square miles.
Kentucky has thirteen electoral
votes for president. The re-
markable physical condition of
its population is shown In a re-
port of the volunteers in the
Civil war. This gave their av-
erage height as nearly an inch
taller than the New England
troops and with a correspond
ingly greater girth of chest.

GATES WIDE OPEN.
The most striking evidence that
there has been q new deal in Wash
fngton was seen at the White House.
Pedestrians passing along Pennsyl-
vania avenue stopped and gazed cur
fously at the open gates Gone were
the uniformed policemen that for the
last four years have perched in their
little sentry boxes by the gates and
barred all those who sought admis-
sion. The iron gates were swung in
ward and unguarded. The beautiful
grounds, just now exhibiting the first
faint fiushes of spring, were likewise
unguarded except for the casual
police protection that IL given any
public domain.
inaugural visitors, who still throng-
ed the Capital in considerable num-
bers today. strolled through Nthe open
gates and about the grounds at will.
1t was q fresh and unusual sight for
Washington.
CONFERENCES PLANNED.
Starting next week there will be
an almost solid month OF comforting
and planning between Republican
leaders, now in control of all
branches OF government for the first
time in eight years
The special session of the new
Congress will not be called until
the executive and Legislative branches
of the Government can formulate
soem sort of a program on which
to start working. During the next
few weeks President Harding will
have almost constant conferences
with leaders Of the House and Sem
ate, and when these have developed
something tangible, he will issue
call for a special session. II things
go smoothly the Sixty-seventh Con-
gress will convene April 4.
More pressing than the legislative
program In its demand for immediate
action Is the task confronting the
new President of making a number
The Washington times., 1921-03-05

of highly important appointments.
The most urgent of these are some
ambassadors. the creation of an en-
tirely new Shipping Board of seven
members. and the filling OF four
vacancies on the Interstate Commerce
Commission.
Offcially, there was no Shipping
Board todayf The board died a nat
ural death at noon March 4. Presi-
dent Harding has managed, despite
his Cabinet difficulties. to give con-
siderable consideration to these ap-
pointments for the last four weeks,
and Is believed to have already tenta-
lively selected most Of the members.
George Chamberlain. of Oregon. a
Democrat who retired yesterday as
Senator. Is one OF them.

date for the nomination at Chicago.

George Harvey with the appoint
