AMERICA IS UNPOPULAR
Munich Thcatcrgocrs Object To Use Of |. $. Names And Terms In Re- cent Production.

Berlin, Jan. II, - 0sy Associated Press)-Munich theatergoers are still touchy on the subject of America it appears from an incident just report cd here,
 The Neue Berliner Xeitung tells how an audience in the Bavarian capital fairly raised the roof in ob- jccting to the American background and American names used in a new theatrical production. They hootcd and hissed and stamped and finally the performance was brought to d stop.
 The authorities, when the manager was brought before them, forbade him from producing the play unless the scenes were placed in some country other than the United States. The versatile producer readily com plied and laid his scenes in the Cau- casus. The name of one character was changed from smith" to "Smir- ski" and that of Gladys Chicago, dollar princess to Marsha Petro- grad, millionaire's daughter"
 The play was a success.

TO RELIEVE CATHARRH- AL DEAFNESS AND
 HEAD NOISES

If you have Catarrhal Deafness or are hard of hearing or have head noises go to your druggist and get 1 ounce of Parmint (double strength), and add to it l4 pint of hot water and a little granulated sugar. Take one tablespoonful four times day.
 This will often bring quick relief from the distressing head noises Clogged nostrils should open, breath ing become easy and inc muscus stop dropping into the throat. It is easy to prepare, costs little and is pleasant to take. Anyone who has Catarrhal Deafness or head noises should give this prescription q trial.
