FOR CATARRH-CATARRHAL DEAFNESS OR HEAD NOISES YOU SHOULD TRY PARMINT Tf you have Catarrh, Catarrhal Deaf ness or Head Noises caused by Catarrh, or if phlegm drops in your throat and has caused Catarrh of the stomach or bowels you should secure proper treat ment at once. Don't neglect Catanh! Don't let it make you Into a worn-out, run-down Catarrhal wreck. Remember Catarrh is more than a trifling aliment —more than a disgust ing disease. It's a dangerous one. Un checked it frequently destroys smell, taste and hearing. It clogs the nostrils and slowly but surely undermines the general health.' Sprays, salves and inhalers may bring you a temporary relief but per manent results can only come from a constitutional treatment that will ex pel the Catarrhal poisons from your system. If you are a victim of Catarrh and have not been able to find relief from your trouble, go to your druggist to dav nnd get an ounce of Parmint, about 75c worth, take this home and add to it four ounces of sugar and U Pint hot water. Take a tablespoonful four times a day. It acts upon the blood and Fordonian Successfully Dodges Submarines j New York, March 14. —•* The freight steamship Fordonian, also an Ameri can vessel owned by the American Star Dine, has arrived Bafely at Genoa alter circling in the Mediterranean for more than two weeks dodging sub marines. according lo a cablegram re ceived here to-day, by the line.

Parmint lias been used In the treatment of Catarrh throughout Kurope l'or many years. A recent canvas of the American drus- Sists shows that It Is now being ex tensively used in this county where it Is producing satisfactory results even' in localities where Catarrh is most prevalent. To bo able to breathe freely, to hear plainly, smell, taste and arise in thu morning refreshed and strong and with head and throat free from phlegm are conditions that you should strive to se cure. For your own sake give Parmint a trial. Certainly you cannot enjoy and get the good out of life that you are justly entitled to so long as you are af flicted with Catarrh. Start with Parmint NOW, to-day. It may bring you a relief and give you a wider margin of health thau you thought It possible to obtain. Parmint is sold and recommended In this city by all llrst class druggists. —Adv.
