' ADVKIUISEMENT CUT THIS OUT OLD ENGLISH RECIPE FOR CA TARRH, CATARRHAL DEAF. NESS AND HEAD NOISES If yon know of some one who I3 trou bled irith Catarrhal Deafness, head noises or ordinary catarrh cut out thia formula and hand it to them and you may have been the means of saving some poor suf fered perhaps from total deafness. - In England scientist for a Ions; time past have -recosrnised that catarrh is a consti tutional disease and necessarily requires constitutional treatment. 1 J . Sprays, iphalers and nose douches are liable to irritate the delicate air passages and force the) disease into the middle ear which frequently means total deafness, or else the disease may be driven down the air- passages towards the lungs which is equally, as dangerous. The following for mula which-ia - used 'extensively in the damp English flimate is a constitutional treatment and should prove "Especially ef ficacious to sufferers here who live under more favorable climate conditions. Secure from your druggist I ounce of Parmint (Double strength). Take this homa and add to it ' pint of hot water and a little granulated sugar: stir until dissolved. Take one tablespoonful four timet a day. This will often .bring quick relief from distressing head noises. Clogged nostrils should open, . breathing become easy and hearing improve as the inflammation in the eustachian tubes is reduced. Parmint used in this way acts directly upon the blood andTmucous sur faces of the system and has a tonic action that helps to obtain the desired results. The preparation is easy to make, costs little and Is pleasant to take. Every per son who has catarrh or head noises, or ie hard of hearing should give this treat ment a trial. . r . .

The senator asserted he took it up with the judiciary committee, which was net inclined to take any action and restored Mr. Kline's name on the payroll after, he had ordered it removed. Senator Hoagland, who started the discussion by indicating that he did not have the privilege of senate stenographers which he said he em ployed only once, answered Senator Kced"Ty declaring that the steno grapher herself had volunteered to do the w6rK. lhe complaint came, not from the stenographer, but from the secretary of the senate, he said.
