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 cartarr-
hardeafness, and that is by a constltu-
onal remedy. Catarrhal Deafness Is
caused by an inflamed condition of the
m cous lining of the Eustachian Tube
When this tube inflamed you have a
rumbling sound or imperfect hearing,
and when it is entirely closed, Deafness
is the result. Unless the inflammation
can be reduced and this tube to its nor
nal condition, hearing will be destroyed
forever. Many cases of deafness are
caused by catarrh, which is an lnfiemed
condition of the mucous surfaces.
Halls Catarrh Medicine acts thru the
blood on the mucous surfaces of the
system.
We will give One Hundred Dollars for
any case of Catarrah Peafness that can
not be cured by Halls Catarrh Medi

II am now sixty-nine years of age,
and in all my life l have never run

class with Tanlac. have just fin

cine has benefited me even beyond my
greatest hopes. Besides gaining six

In a miserably rundown condition,
and was compelled short time ago
to give up all idea Of business as l
was too weak to look after anything.
i was nervous, worn-out, had no appe-
tite, and suffered most all the time
with indigestion. Some days would
eat scarcely anything; in fact was
afraid TO eat because knew / would

such severe cramping pains after eat

nerves were all unstrung and the least
thing would worry me and / never

In fact / just lost interest in every
thing and was greatly discouraged
over my condition.
4The ordinary treatment failed to
do me any good, and as had read so
many statements from people 1 know
here in Portland who had been bene-
fited by Tanlae, l decided to give it a
trial. And now l know for myself
what it will do, for l have simply
taken a new lease on life. / am now

IN LATEST KNITTED DRESSES
High Collars Are Feature Of Some
Garments; Fullness at the
Shoulders Is Noted.

High collars are seen on several of
the new knitted dresses. One model
is made with broad turnover collar
that may be worn very high or low.
The dress is in gray, knitted in self
stripe with bag panels at the sides,
and collar and cuffs made of tartan
brushed wool. The newest knitted
dresses show fullness at the shoul-
ders, thus relieving the plain appear
ance so unbecoming to full figures.
The raglan sleeve is used on some Of
the models, and also the full sleeve
which gives the effect of a shoulder
yoke.
Jumpers are made with skirts to
match. One model has the skirt knit
ted to simulate yoke, with the jump
er made with a cuff hem. Some Of the
skirts are knitted in the form of plaits
and made with an elastic belt.

Show Neekwear NoveItIea.

Among the dainty ct ceteras that
add so much to the smartly attired
woman, are many delightful neckwear
novelties. Particularly pleasing are
the plated ruches of colored organdie
that are worn closely about the neck.
They are designed especially to be
worn with fur coat and the dark
dress. Besides giving a delightful
touch of color to the costume, they
really perform very important mis-
sion when worn with the fur coat for
they prevent the fur being rubbed and
also protect the neck.

Of steadfast witnesses to the faith, the
patriarchs officiated at Easter.
Easter eve, for two hours before
midnight, one hears the Acts of the
Holy Apostles read. Meanwhile the
lamps and candles, lighted one by one,
swim like planes in ones ken. The
church swings in the shadows like
huge censer. Then the gates of the
sanctuary open and, in the vestments
of royal purple, patriarchs, bishops
and priests, with silver and crystal
crosses, like a torrent, flood the church
with song. "Christ is risenw
The jeweled gospels are thundered
in different languages from the four

CELEBRATION OF
RUSSIAN EASTER
Impressive Services in Moscow
Held Under the Regime
of the Cars.

In the days before the suppression
Of the patriarchate by Peter the Great,
on Good Friday, or, as the Russians
say, Great Friday-the patriarch, in
humble imitation of our Lords entry
into Jerusalem, rode on an ass from
the Church of Blessed Basil, in Mos
COW, across the mosaic of fluttering
doves, through the Gate of the Savior,
up to the Kremlin, but last year the
patriarch was forbidden entrance in
the ancient way, says the Detroit
News. Indeed, it was late on Easter
eve before his holiness knew with GER
tainty that he should be allowed to
celebrate in his own cathedral on the
morrow, In spite of the shelling and
desecration of the ancient citadel by
