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 inhamed condition of the mucous lin
ing of the Eustachian Tube. When this
tube is inilamed you have q rumbling
sound or imperfect hearing and wheni'
is entirely closed, Deafness is the result.
Unless the inflammation can be reduced
and this tube restored to its normal con-
dition hearing will be destroyed forever.
Many cases Of deafness are caused by
catarrh, which is an intlamed condition
of the mucous surfaces. Halls Catarrh
Medicine acts thru the blood on the mu
cous surfaces of the system.
We will give One Hundred Dollars for
any case of Catarrhal Deafness that can
not he cured by Halls Catarrh Medicine.

FIGURED IN HISTORIC PAST
Representation of Monarch of the
Time of Abraham Now in
Pennsylvania Museum.

In the dim old days of the patriarch
Abraham people looked very much as
they do now, judging from the oldest
representation of human figures I'M
earthed by the toiling brotherhood of
archeologists. Two striking figures,
one standing and one sGated, are in
Guided in the elaborate design of the
clay seal, or postage stamp which
has excited the enthusiasm of DR.. Lee
grain, curator of the Babylonian sec
ton of the University of Pennsylvania
museum.
Dr. Legrain has figured out the in
scriptions of the little tablet as indi-
eating that it dates from the period
when "Ur of the Chaldees," mentioned
in Genesis in connection with the his.
tory of Abraham, was a furnishing
kingdom. And he finds reason to be-
lieve that the seated figure, decorated
with flounces of beautiful accordion
plating, is a portrait of his majesty
Ibi-Sin, the last king of Ur and pos
Sibly an intimate friend Of the Father
Of Israel.
To the modern eye both figures are
remarkably well drawn and lifelike
in attitude, especially considering the
fact that they were modelled in clay
on very small scale. DR.. Legrain
thinks the tablet served the double
purpose of a seal and postage stamp
on a sack Of money forwarded to a
banker named Shulpae by his rever-
ence the high priest of the temple of
Ur, at which Abraham worshiped.

After a three-year study of pellagra
in the cotton-mill villages of South
Carolina, the United States public
health service shows that pellagra
varies inversely with the family in

fell the disease was found to increase
and to affect more members of the
same family. AS the income rose the
disease decreased, and was rarely
found in families that enjoyed the
highest incomes, even though this
highest was still quite low.
A recent statement given by one of
the large life insurance companies in

Southern wage earners must have i'm

To the Editor of The American:
For the encouragement of farm
ers, who too often underrate the
brain-power of their class and look
to the higher cult for literary
brilliancy, will you kindly publish
the following from The Outlook of
March 2, 1921:
Several months ago The Out
look offered three prizes for the
three best articles containing criti-
cism on The Outlook, and sugges-
lions for it's Improvement. There
were 401 articles, They came
from forty-two states of the Union,
and from Canada and Mexico. 1t
was a remarkable crowd of con-
testants. 1t included the chancellor
of a university, college presidents,
deans, professors, instructors and
students. One contestant was an
eminent landscape painter. Another
was an officer in the United States
navy, his contest letter being writ
ten at sea. There We're clergymen,
lawyers, physicians and engineers
there were legislators, newspaper
men and authors; there were farm
ers, homesteaders, manufacturers,
merchants, statesmen, clerks. stano-
graphers, housewives and school
boys and school girls. The oldest
competitor was well in the eighties;
the youngest was low in the teens.
The first prize was won by a
farmer, Howard Murry Jones of
Madison, Wis: the second was won
by William Harris Guyer of Finley
College, o.; the two third prizes in
Massachusetts and Kansas
The Outlook is one of our fair
est and best magazines. with only
very limited circulation among
farmers.
