To Relieve Catarrhal
Deafness And
Head Noises
Persons suffering: from catarrhal
deafness and head noises will be glad
to know that this distressing affliction
tan usually be successfully treated at
home by an internal medicine that in
many instances has effected complete
) "lief after other treatments have fail
ed. Sufferers who could scarcely hear
have had their hearing restored to such
an extent that the tick of a watch was
plainly audible seven or eight inches
away from either ear. Therefore if you
know of someone who is troubled with
noises or catarrhal deafness, cut
out this formula and hand it to them
and you may have been the means of
saving some poor sufferer perhaps from
total deafness. The jjrescription can
be prepared at home and is made us
follows:
Secure frbm your druggist I oz. Par
nfin (Double Strength), about 75 cents
worth. Take this home and add to it
'-i pint of hot water and 4 oz. of granu
lated sugar; stir until dissolved. Take
one 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 Kustachian
Tubes, and thus to equalize the air
pressure on the drum, but to correct
any excess of secretions in the middle
ear, and the results it gives are nearly
always quick and effective.
Every person who has catarrh in any
form should givq this recipe a trial.
EVEN CROSS, SICK
CHILDREN LOVE
SYRUP OF FIGS
Look at tongue! If feverish,
bilious, constipated,
take no chances.
"California Syrup of Figs" can't
harm tender stomach,
liver, bowels.
Don't scold your fretful, peevish j
child. See if tongue is coated; this is a
sure sign its little stomach, liver and
bowels are clogged.with sour waste.
When listless, pale, feverish, full of
cold, breath bad, throat sore, doesn't
eat, sleep or act naturally, has stomach
ache, indigestion, diarrhoea, give a tea
spoonful of "California Syrup of Figs,"
and in a few hours all the foul waste,
the sour bile and fermenting food
passes out of the bowels and you have
a well and playful child again. Chil
dren love this harmless "fruit laxa
tive." and mothers can rest easv after
giving it, because it never fails to
make their little "insides" clean and
sweet.
Keep it handy. Mother! A little
given to-day saves a sick child to
morrow, but get the genuine. Ask vour
druggist for a 50-cent bottle of "Cali
fornia Syrup of Figs," which has direc
tions for babies, children of all ages
and for grown-ups plainly on the
bottle. Remember there are counter
feits sold here, so surely look and see
that yours is made by the "California
Fig Syrup Company." Hand back with
contempt any other fig syrup.

SHE ASKED TOO
MUCH OF HUSBAND
i This Woman Never Married
Because She Was Looking
For a Paragon
By Dorothy Dix
"The reason I never married," said
the seventh woman, "was because 1
demanded too much in a husband.
"I was looking for a paragon, and
as the countryman said when he saw
i a hippopotamus for the first time,
! 'there ain't no sich animal.'
"As I look back now on my artless
i girlish ideal, with the light of many
years' experience of human nature
and much knowledge of the world to
illuminate mv vision, I don't know
i whether to laugh or to cry, for my
purpose was so high and my practise
so foolish, and in reaching out af.ter
an impossible idol, I missed all of the
nice consolation prizes that 1 might
have had.
"I had many chances to marry—
good chances, too. and to marry men
to whom for one reason or another I
was greatly attracted, and with whom
I could have fallen in love if I had
pemitted myself. But no. In my
youthful egotism I had decided that
I would marry no man who did not
measure up to the standard of per
(fection that I had erected, and of
course no meer mortal man did.
"He couldn't, for any specifications
of the kind of n husband that 1
thought good enough for me required
a composite of the salient characteris
tics of Paul Swan, Sir Gallahad, Mr.
Rockefeller, Keats and John Drew.
Hard Requirements
'"The man mat I married must be
handsome, tall, with piercing eyes
and a dark mustache. He must have
i unblemished morals, and yet be a
man of. the world who knew his way
about.
"He must be able to make money,
and plenty of it, because I hankered
after the fleshpots, but he must also
be of a soulful nature and able to
quote poetry effectively, and to un
derstand my soul aspirations, and he
must have all of the social graces,
and wear his clothes like the god
like young creature in the tailors'
advertisements
"That was the kind of a husband
that I was looking for. and poor little
goose that I was, I didn't know that
the feast of life is served a la carte,
and that we don't get all of the good
ies. We have to make our choice
from the menu that fate serves us,
and the best we can do is pick out
the one thing that we relish most.
"Later on, I discovered that mas
iCuline pulchritude, and brains seldom
go together; that a giant may have
the soul of a pigmy, and the heart
and mind of a five-foot-four man may
be so big they crowd his small body;
that a nian who occasionally zigzags
off of the straight and narrow path
often makes the tenderest and most
adorable of husbands, while a model
of all the virtues generally is a grind
ing tyrant at home; that money mak
ing and yearning after the whatness
of the what are as incompatible as
oil and water.
"That a husband who is a Beau
Brummel in his dress spends the
clothes allowance of the family on
himself instead of hie wife, and fin- j
ally, and above all, that romantic
love is as evanescent as the dew on
the rose, and that any kind of plain
old prosaic love is better than no
love at all.
A T.ittle Too Late
"But like most discoveries that we
make for ourselves, my discovery
came too late to do me any good. 1
had let my youth and my opportuni
ties to marry all pass by me while I
was seeking for the Impossible HE.
"There was Jack, who was as hand
some as a young Apollo, but I
wouldn't marry him because he was
as vain as a peacock, and had noth
ing but his good looks to recommend
him. There was a clergyman who
proposed to me, an ascetic, saint like
young fellow, giving himself, iu a pas
sion of devotion to work in the slums,
but I couldn't see myself a preacher's
wife, living in smelly tenements, and
doing mission work instead of going
to teas and balls.
"And Tom, who was born with the
Midas touch that turned everything
to gold asked me to share his for
tune. But Tom hadn't an interest in
the world except business, and the
prospect of spending all of my even
ings talking to a man who thought
that Browning was a new industrial
stock, and that the only book with a
genuine heart thrill in it was a bank
book, didn't appeal to me, so I turned
that proposition down.
"On the other hand, there was
Alphonse, who was a quU-ering bunch
of artistic and literary- sensibilities,
who palpitated to every shade of
meaning in books, or pictures, or
musirf, but who could never make a
living, and whose wife was due to
take.in boarders and support him.
"And there was Philip, whose ul
timate ambition was achieved when
he introduced a new figure into a
cotillion, or was the first to wear a
mauve ribbon on his eyeglasses that
exactly matched his silk waistcoat
and socks. Somehow I couldn't see;
myself as the wife of as piffling a
thins as that, either.
"Now, each one of these men had
one of the qualities I desired in a
husband, but none had them all, and
so in my ignorance and inexperience
I kept a watchful waiting for the,one
to come along who combined all of
the virtues in one. But he never
did, and that's why I am an old maid.
"If I had to do it over again, with
my present experience and knowledge
of life, I should simply choose the
man who had the virtue I liked best.
I wouldn't consider a man's looks or
size if I liked the quality of his heart
and brains.
"I'd take the money maker and
forget the soul stuff if I wanted lux
uries, or I'd marry the man who could
give me companionship, and hustle
up the bread and butter myself, or
I'd take my good-natured rounder
and- not nag him about falling off of
the water wagon, oi' my preacher, and
make up my mind to be a saint, too.
And I'd be happy with either, for I'd
forget the other perfections he
hadn't got.
"But I'd know I'd never find a
paragon, as I used to think I would.
And if. I had found a paragon, what
would he want with me? And what
would I have done with him If I had
gotten him? It's only a husband's
imperfections that make him bear
abife"
CONGRESS CALLED; DECLARATION
OF WAR IS EXPECTED APRIL 2
i utilise their full efficiency the de
fense of the nation.
Derision Made To-day
President Wilson's "decision to call
Congress earlier than the date first
fixed for the extra session—April 16—
was announced early to-day. The
President's finally was made up
as the result of yesterday's cabinet
meeting, at which practically a unani
mous opinion was expressed that while
ureparations to put the nation in a
full state of armed neutrality were
going forward, Congress—which alone
has the war-making power—should be
summoned.
The President deliberated on the
question until late last night and early
to-day made his decision. He chose
April 2 because he thought It would
be impossible for all members of Con
gress to reach Washington earlier.
In liis address at tlie opening of
the extra session the President will
re< ite the overt aets committed against
the United Stales by Germany.
The sentiment in Congress Is under
stood to be overwhelmingly in fnvor of
u declaration that as a result of tier*
ninny's nets against tile United States
a slate of war already exists.
The foremost overt act which
brought the President to his decision
was the torpedoing without warning
of the American merchantman Vlgl
lancia, with the loss of fifteen lives,
some of them Americans.
Tlie I'resldcnt has not made up ills
program entirely for presentation to
Congress, hut probably will also dis
cuss pni versa 1 military training.
The Navy Department is expected
to call for privately owned yachts and
large motorboats for service against
submarines. Tentative contracts for
such craft have already been nego
tiated in many cases.
It is known that Up to noon yes
terday President Wilson told close ad
visers he still was of an open mind on
the question of summoning Congress
immediately, but that he leaned toward
awaiting the extra session called for
April 16.
At yesterday's Cabinet meeting,
however, several of the members went
to the White House determined to
urge strongly on the President an im
mediate extra session, which, they be
lieved, was demanded by the country.
Those Cabinet members who have
been classed as pacifist or with pacifist
leanings, it was said, offered no objec
tions of weight, and the President,
without giving any indication of his
decision, merely heard what every
member of his official family had to
say. When the Cabinet meeting was
over some of the closest observers felt
that the extra session would be called
sooner than April 16, but they had
nothing definite on which to base it.
Officials and diplomats have openly
acknowledged that a state of war be
tween-the United States and Germany
has existed for some time, but that the
situation became most pronounced last
Sunday when three American ships
were destroyed by submarines in quick
succession and some American lives
were lost.
Practically all the President's closest
advisers at once made up their ininds
that Germany was actually conducting
war against the United States and that
the situation must be met promptly.
The principal arguments jroujtl>; to
bear against the United States taking
a further step toward war were that
practically all that '-ould ce none to
protect American lines ana ships at sea
had been done by the arming of mer
chant vessels and that an acknowl
edged state of war between the two
countries would give Germany an op
portunity to carry her submarine war
fare to this side of the Atlantic.
This latter was somewhat of a sec
ondary consideration because the navy
feels that it is prepared to meet that
feature of the situation. It also vas
argued that having kept the country
out of the war so far. the President
would be reluctant to enter it now,
when there are indications of develop
ments in Europe which of themselves
promise to hasten the end of the con
flict.
All lliese arguments were swept
asltlr. however, nt yesterday's cabinet
ineetlUK when with an opinion describ
ed by members as the most unanimous
ever known In tlie President's ofticinl
family, it was decided thnt Germany's
nets of aggression against the United
States on the seas, her ruthless de
struction of American lives In eontrn
vention of nil tlie principles of lan
niul Immunity hud come to constitute
a state of war being mnde upon the
I'nitcd Mates, and that there Mas noth
ing left to do but call Congress to denl
with the question.
President Wilson, when he asked
Congress for authority to arm Amer
ican merchantmen, declared that he
was contemplating no step that would
lead to war, and that he was not con
templating war itself. Nothing he said

against the United States could bring
the country into war. The President,
the cabinet, and all official Washington
now believe that such a moment has
come and that it has not been of this
country's choosing.
Plants Offered U. 8. '
Henry Ford, the Detroit automobile
manufacturer, has offered, and the gov
ernment has accepted, his grfat plant
to be operated without profit In the
event of war. Charles M. Schwao has
announced that his Bethlehem plant,
now greater than Krwpps. will oe used
entirely for the government. The U. S.
Steel Corporation and a hundred other
great industrial organizations have
been making plans for their participa
tion. Yesterday the great copper in
terests notified the government that
they would supply the army and navy
with their vital supplies of copper at
about half the market price.
When the President addresses Con
gress he is expected to go into the de
tails of the situation very fully, par
ticularly as to how It affects the fu
ture of the United States.
While It In uut known how much
money President Wilson iiinv suggest

held the view that not less than

thnt legislation glvlug such a sum
nould meet with any opposition,
l.ook Forward to Peace
\ Quite aside frOm the task of protect
ing American lives and rights against
aggression on the high seas, the Presi
dent has considered the broader ques
tion of the preservation of civilization,
the distribution of world power after
the war, a natural arrangement <*£
the world's peoples In governments by
the consent of the governed and an
effective league of nations to protect
the world against another eatclysm of
war. The Influence of the United
States in the conferences which will
make peace is everywhere admitted as
not to be overestimated.
When the word that the President
had summoned Congress went through
the allied embassies this morning it
was received with acclaim. There is
not a diplomat in the corps who does
not believe hat It means the entry of
the United States into the great war,
bringing Its wealth, its armed forces,
its great resources and Its moral power
to the side of the entente allies in
what they feel is their battle for the
preservation of civilization and dem
ocracy. '
Look lo German Action
With the knowledge that the United
States is practically certain to declare
a state of wa rexistlng, many officials
believe that Germany may begin war
like operations against the United
States In a fuller sense.
Although The Hague conventions of
1907, to which both the United States
and Germany are signatories, declare
that hostilities shall not begin without
formal notice to belligerents as well as
neutrals, it is recognized that The
Hague treaties have been so openly
disregarded during the war in Europe
that no compliance with them may be
expected with any confidence. Before
The Hague conventions there was
ample precedent for beginning op
erations without formal war declara
tions. In the war with Mexico Gen
eral Taylor's forces were over the Rio
Grande and two battles had been
fought before a formal declaration of
war was made. Japan struck Russia
before the formal declaration of war
had reached the Russian capital, al
though one day previously the Japa
nese ambassador had notified the Rus
sian foreign office, that Japan reserved
liberty of action in protecting her in
terests.
The precedents of history show that
the great majority of the world's con
flicts have ben begun before formal
declarations of war were made.
Three Ways to War
According to authorities on inter
national law, a condition of war arises
in three ways:
I—A declaration of war.
I!—A proclaration or manifesto de
claring that a state of war exists.
it—Through the commission of lios
tile acts of force.
One authority on international law
describing ways In which hostilities
may begin without formal declaration
says: "Acts of force byway of re
prisals or during a pacific blockade or
during an intervention might be for
cibly resisted ♦ • hostilities
breaking out in this way."
President Dilson's action to-day was
quickly followed by predictions at tlu;
Capitol that Congress speedily would
declare a state of war existing..
Chairman Flood, of the House for
eign affairs committee, said he ex
pected Congress would quickly pass a
resolution declaring that a state war
exists and endorsing the President's
course.
Senator Poindexter, Republican, of
Washington, said to-day that "Con-
gress will pass quickly a law au
thorizing a limited war on German
submarines."
"I expect Congress," he said, "to
take vigorous action immediately."
Plan For War
It became known to-day that yes
terday's cabinet meeting discussed
what active steps tliei United States
should lake after a state of war is de
clared, considered the opening of Am
erican ports to warships of tlie entente
allies ,tbe opening of tlie vast credits
lo tlie allies for their supplies, co
operating willi the allied fleets in
clearing the submarines out of the
shipping lanes, and guarding trans
port to Euroiie.
One of the measures now under
consideration by the Federal Shipping
Board is the building of a large stand
ardized fleet of small wooden cargo
steamers to carry supplies through
the submarine zone. The question of
participation of an American army on
the European battlefields was touch
ed upon it was understood, as one of
the possibilities of the future, but not
to be considered as a prospective step
now. '
TIME HAS COME TO
ACT SAYS ROOT
[Continued From First Page]
Germany Now Is Waging
War on United States
Statements by speakers at the
Union l.eague Club last night:
ELIHU ROOT Germany is
making war upon us, and we are
all waiting to see whether we are
to take it "lying; down."
CHARLES F. HUGHES—There
is now a state of war, and the
United States should recognize that
fact. Our citizens have been mur
dered—are being murdered.
JOSEPH H. CHOATE The
President said two months ago.
"On tlie brink of war." Well, we
can't stay on the brink forever.
We have tumbled in—that is what
has hapitened—we have fallen in.
Root, "appreciate how serious the
conditions are which confront us—
not one of us really understands how
fraught with good or ill, with perpetu
ity of our Institutions, or with the
ruin of our country, is the course of
the Ailierican people within the next
few months.
Germany Making War
"The situation is a very extraordin
ary one. Germany Is making war
upon ua. There may not be techni
cally a war because it may be that it
takes two to produce _Jiat; but Ger
many is making war upon us, an#!
we are all waiting to see whether we
are to take it lying down. It is either
war or it is submission to oppression.
"What is there we can do? Only
this: We can perform the duty of a
free, self-governing people by speak
ing in clear and certain tones, so that
the spirit and the purpose and the
will of a free people may be heard In
Washington and our government may
know that the American people will
be behind it, supporting it. approving
it. sustaining it in maintaining the
honor and the integrity and the in
dependence and the freedom of our
Republic.
Wilson Wants to Hear
"My diagnosis of the situation is
that the President wants to hear from
the people. He has said so many
times. He wants to hear whether the
people of the United States want him
to go on and act. Let us answer to
his want and tell him that the Ameri
can people do want him not to dis
cuss. not to plan, not to talk about
what is going to be done, but to act."
Mr. Hughes, in calling the meeting
to order, said:
"We are here to record our convic
tions, to offer our service. It is the
distinction of this club that it came
into being as an instrumentality of
national service, giving its pledge of
unconditional lo5 r alty. Its loyalty, of
which we speak, is not a mere form
of words. It is the loyalty that de
fends; it is the loyalty that preserves;
it is the loyalty that is fittingly ex
pressed in the supreme service of sac
rifice.
Ruthless Barbarity
"I am sure that none of us can fail
to recognize tlie actual condition of
affairs. Let us not delude ourselves.
Germany is now making war upon the
United States, making war with a
ruthless barbarity. It is not a ques
tion of legalistic conception. There
is now a state of war, and the United
States, the people of the United States
should recognize that fact. Our citi
zens have been murdered —are being
SPRAY THE TREES
URGES SANDERS
Now Is Time to Give Orders
For the Materials For
Spring Wofk
Fruit growers throughout the State
are urged by Zoologist J. G. Sanders,
qf the State Department of Agricul
ture, to make early preparations for
spraying of trees for Insect and dis
ease control.
Professor Sanders says that difficul
ties may be encountered to secure
prompt shipment of the necessary
cremicals, spray machinery and acces
sories on account of economic condi
tions and urges the immediate order
ing of supplies, and that fruit growers
should take advantage of every avail
able warm day this season for dormant
spraying with lime sulphur solution to
control San Jose scale and peach leaf
curl. The deep frost will hinder spray
ing later when the warmer weather
approaches.
Poultrymen report to the State De
partment of Agriculture that breeding
cockerels are very scarce this spring
owing to the large number which were
killed off during the fall and winter
on account of the high cost of feed.
Pennsylvania ranked third in the
production of potatoes during the past
year, but only thirty-second in the
average number of bushels produced
to an acre.
Estimates show that seventy-five
per cent, of the farmers of the State
use commercial fertilizers and that a
total of 325,500 tons was used on the
farms during the past year.
The average amount of commercial
fertilizer used to an acre by the farm
ers of the State is 235 pounds and
each farmer purchases each year an
average of about two tons.
Estimates made by the State De
partment of Agriculture show 9,700
pure bred bulls in the State.
It is estimated that about sixteen
per cent, of the farmers of the State
have stored ice during the present
winter.
It is estimated that over 17,000
farmers are fattening steers for the
spring market.
Lancaster ranks first, York second,
Adams, third and Franklin fourth, in
the steer feeding industry. The north
ern part of the State is more noted as
a dairy section. .
New Fraternal Benefit
Insurance Bill In
A bill defining fraternal benefit so
cieties was introduced in the Senate by
Senator Crow. It is designed to pro
vide a specific method for the operation
of societies working through the lodge
system, and fixes a plan of operation so
that all such societies can absolutely
carry out every contract. It Is intro
duced at the instance of the Insurance
Department and was prepared under
the direction of Insurance Commis
sioner O'Neil. The act Is similar to the
laws of New York, Massachusetts. Con
necticut and practically all of the East
ern States except Pennsylvania.
It requires all fraternal organizations
to be under th • direct supervision of
the Insurance Department. The act is
intended to discontinue instirance
trouble due to insurance companies act
