For Catarrhal Deafness / and Head Noises Here In America there is much suf fering from catarrh and baad noises. American people would do well to con sider the method employed by the Eng lish to combat this insidious disease, i Everyone knows how damp the KnK'ish | climate is and how dampness affects . those suffering; from catarrh. In Eng land they treat catarrhal deafness and head noises as a constitutional disease and use an internal remedy for it that is really very efficacious. Sufferers who could scarcelv hear a watch tick tell how they had their i hearing restored by this English treat- : inent to such an extent that the tick •>f a watch was plainly audible seven ami eight Inches away from either ear. ' Therefore, if you know someone who ! is troubled with catarrh, catarrhal deaf-| ncss or head noises, out this for- i inula and hand it to them anil you will have been the means of saving some poor sufferer perhaps fiom total deaf ness. The prescription can he easily prepared at home for about Toe and is made as follows: From your druggist obtain 1 oz. of Parmlnt (Double Strength), about 7;" c worth. Take this home, and add to it >i pint of hot water and 1 ounces of granulated sugar; stir until dissolved. Take a tablespoonful four times a day. Parmint is used in this way not only to reduce by tonic aition the inllamma- ; tion und swelling In the Kustachian 1 Tubes, and thus to equalize the air . pressure on the drum, but to correct any excess of secretions in the middle | car. and the results it gives are usually remarkably quick and effective. Every person who has catarrh in any i form should give this recipe a trial and free themselves from this destructive | disease.—Advertisement.

JEWS OBSERVING THE FEAST OF DEDICATION i Poor of City Remembered; Time For Rejoicing on Part of Children ; ■ 1 One of the most in teresting half-holidays in the Jewish calen dar is now being ob served. It began Sat urday evening and **4 4 will last for eight days. ' fifljJl 'I is known as Cha , .188 nukkah, the Feast •A Dedication, and, i though not observed kl'M' special services in .J .-s®jjjthe synagogue, it is raKl' ' 'IBhI looked forward to by -flthe children of tlie [".ST A Jewish household, for I- V f—|, us j n large meas ure come to be a children's festival The historical background of the celebration is found in the fact that ; in the yar B. •'. Judas Maccabeus, | one- of the few martial heroes In Jcw i Ish history, rededicated to the service I of the one God the Temple at Jeru- I salem after its pollution by Antiochus ! Epiphanes. who had set lip in place of ! God's altar a shrine to his heathen i god. Just three years after this pol ' lotion, on the twenty-tifth day of the month of Kislev, the Temple was re claimed and rededicated to the service of God. Around the festival cluster many I beautiful legends, which have helped to shape the character of the celebra tion. one such legend is to the effect j that when the Temple was rededicated only, a singb- cruse of oil was found unpolluted, but through the miracu lous intervention of God this oil proved to be suflicient for burning for eight successive nights and until other oil fit for the service might be pre pared. For this reason to this day j Jews light candles in their homes in celebration of Clmnukkah for eight | successive nights, one on the first | j night, two on the second, and so on. ! There is a theory that even before | the historical event which Chanukkah j celebrates the feast had been observed by Jews as the beginning of the winter | solstice, and that Its origin is common ! with that of the Christian Christmas and the Roman Saturnalia, which oc- I our at about the same season, and I which are likewise celebrated by the lighting of lights and the interchange I of gifts. ! Among the Jews Chanukkah is a time j for rejoicing not only on the part of I the children, but as well on the purt j of the poor, who ure always liberally • remembered. At the services on Friday night at 7.4"» at Temple Ohev Sholorn the theme I of Rabbi Freund's address will be "The j Truth Is Marching On." On Saturday | morning he will speak on "Moral [Courage Versus Moral Cowardice." Plan Bazar. The Ladies' Aid Ko- Iclety of Augsburg Lutheran Church, j Fifth and Muench streets, will hold a !bazar Thursday and Friday of this week. Pattern shirtwaists, initial sta tionery, ice cream, cakes and candy will be one sale. SMUKCLAUSTOPAY l II VISIT TO GERMANY Children Will Be Made Happy This Year Despite Conditions Made by War By' Associated Press Berlin, Nov. 25.—(Correspondence i of the Associated Press)— The stores | of the city have already begun to an-1 nounce a message of comfort for thei little people. This message is that, despite war, embargo and hard times, I Santa Claus is expected to put in his' aopearance at the usual time. He j may not bring so much in his pack as j In past years, but he will bring some-i thing and there is ground for rejoic ing in that, for thousands of persons| had feared that Christmas this year would mean nothing more than two figures on the calendar. The Christmas trade has begun somewhat earlier than usual since so many persons know that the field post, with the best Intentions in the world, will need all the time it can get to bring gifts to the soldiers in the field. Exposition Opens A war lime feature is the opening of an elaborate exposition of "what the soldier needs in the field." There is a surprising range of things that must have been manufactured since i the war begun, going from condensed foods and drinks to elaborate sleeping sacks, and including literally hundreds of ingenuous devices to make the field duty of the soldier more comfort able. A round of the larger stores shows the regular ante-Christmas picture in all departments. Perhaps the only difference is in the stocks of military I toys which are rather larger than usual. Regiments upon regiments of toy soldiers appear, all uniformed and drums, swords, tiny uniforms and sol dier caps, always prominent in the toy departments, take up more space than In peace times. A large proportion of the hooks deal also with the war. Business, too, is good, according to the verdict of the principal stores of the city. Carloads of Christmas trees, pines and balsams have been arriving for several days and evergreen trimmings are beginning to appear in shop win dows. The idea of the Christmas tree name from Germany, and no home would think of being without one on Christmas whether there were any presents to accompany it or not. S»iIEWS Mr. and Mrs. John M.
