For Catarrhal Deafness
and Head Noises
Here In America there is much .suf
fering from catarrh and head noises.
American people would do well to con
sider the method employed by the Eng
lish to combat tills insidious disease.
Everyone knows how damp the Kngllsh
climate is and how dampness affects
those suffering from catarrh. In Kng
land ihey treat catarrhal deafness and
head noises as a constitutional diseuse
and use an internal remedy for it that
is really very efficacious.
Sufferers who could scarcely hear a
watch tick tell how they had their
hearing: restored b- this English treat
ment to such an extent that the tick of
a watch was plainly audible seven and
eight inches away from either ear.
Therefore, If you know someone who
t r oubled with catarrh, catarrhal
deafness or head noises, cut out this
formula and hand it to them and you
will have been the means of saving
some poor sufferer perhaps from total
deafness. The prescription can be eas
ily prepared at home for about 75c and
is made as follows:
From your druggist obtain 1 oz. of
Parmint (Double Stiength), about 75c
worth. Take this home, and add to it
'4 pint of hot water and I 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 action the inflamma
tion and swelling in the Eustachian
1 übes, and thug to equalize the air pres
sure on the drum, but to correct any ex
cess of secretions in the middle ear, and
the results it gives are usually remark
ate quick and effective.
Every person who has catarrh in any
form should give this recipe a trial and
free themselves from this destructive
disease. —Advertisement.

LOANS WOULD
HELP BOROUGH
Committee Points Out Advan
tages of Approving Paving
and Fire Measures
At a meeting of a special committee
of the Municipal League in the offices
of Attorney W. F. Darby last evening
the proposed loans to be voted upon
next Tuesday were heartily endorsed.
The committee decided to do all that
is possible to help secure passage of
the two bond issues and pointed out
many reasons why the voters should
ratify the measures.
It is planned to float a loan of
$25,000 for motor Ore apparatus and
garbage trucks and another loan of
$65,000 for street pa\ing. The com
mittee pointed out that it would be to
the advantage of the liremen to boost
the paving loan so that they may have
paved streets for their motor appa
ratus and showed that with the many
steep hills in the borough It is almost
necessary to have paved streets if it is
planned to motorize the tire depart
ment.
It was also pointed out that passage
of the fire loan will likely make a
reduction in Are insurance rates and
that a tax rate increase of only about
1 mill will be required to pay the in
terest and sinking fund expenses of
the loans if passed. This would mean
an increase of only 10 cents a year in
taxes upon a man whose occupation
alone is taxed.
Those present at the meeting in
cluded C. S. Davis, Charles Beidel, E.
H. Mengle, Walter Kelster, C. W.
McCoy and J. B. Malehorn.
