If you have Catarrhal Deafness T or head noises go to your drug f gist and get 1 ounce of Parmint f (double strength), and add to it ? 14 pint of hot water and 4 ounces J of granulated sugar. Tako 1 * tablespoonful four times a day. ? This will often bring quick re | lief from the distressing head f noises. Clogged nostrils should f open, breathing become easv and f the mucus stop dropping into f the throat. It is easy to prepare, •' costs little and is pleasant to V take. Any one who has Catar- I rhal Deafness or head noises f should give this prescription a I trial. Mrs. Belle C. writes: "I am informed that I have kidney trouble and that it is fast approaching a serious stage. What would you prescribe? Answer: If your symptoms are the usual ones, such as pufts under the eyes, swelling ankles; scant, copious or foul smelling urine, accompanied by head aches, pains, depression, fever, chills, etc., I would advise the immediate use of balmwort tablets, a very fine remedy for such difficulties, sold in sealed tubes with full directions for self-ad ministration. • * • Miss Daisy 13. writes: "I have what people call liver spots on my skin. I am sallow, almost like a person with jaundice, and I know my liver is not right. Have sour risings, coated tongue and get terribly sleepy after eating. Am constipated and seldom feel good. Answer: Such symptoms indicate the need of a good tonic for stomach, liver and bowels, and I advise cardiol tablets as superior to calomel and of lasting benefits. Your druggist can supply in sealed package with direction thereon. • • * Miss Bertie L. asks: "What remedy can you recommend to reduce obesity safely? I want to reduce aoout thirty pounds." Answer: I rely on five-grain arbolene tablets as being the most effective and convenient treatment to reduce abnor mal fat. Druggists supply this in seal ed tubes with complete directions. After the first few days a pound a day is not to much reduction. • • Mr. G. R. writes: "Please tell me what to take to get rid of pimples, boils and bad blood, 1 know 1 need a constipation remedy." Answer: It is probably neglect of constipation that has made your blood bad. Begin a thorough treatment of three grain sulpherb tablets (not sulphur tablets). Continue for several months. • • * M. J. B. asks: "My hair in too oily and my scalp itches with dandruff, and of late it is combing out too much. What is a good treatment? ChlsU?66s '• b.

This cleans, purities, cools and invigorates the hair and scalp, thus stopping the death of the hair. Dandruff and itching are at once relieved. Men and women all over the country now use it regularly. • * • "I-aura" says: "Some time ago I con tracted a very severe cold and cough. I have tried many remedies, but they do not seem to help me at all. I wish you would advise me what to do." Answer: What you need is a laxative cougli syrup, one that will drive the cold from your system. The following prescription will check your cold and cough: Get a 2%-oz. package of con centrated essence mentho-laxene and make according to directions on the bottle. Take a teaspoonful every hour or two or until your cold is better. This will relieve you in a very few days. • • * Miss C. W. R. asks: "I have tried for two years to diet so as to increase my weight and improve the quality of my blood, but in vain. Please prescribe for me?" ' Answer: Thin, scrawney, bloodless people need assistance in absorbing nu trition from the food eaten, and for tills particular purpose 1 always pre scribe three-grain hypo-nuclane tub lets, a most effective preparation if regularly and persistently used, as it seems to increase the red and white corpuscles of the blood, thus affording health, strength and increased weight. ♦ • • Geo. V. G. writes: "Perhaps you can prescribe for me, as I am at a loss to understand my condition. For the past year have suffered extreme nervous ness, trembling and extremities are cold. Have poor appetite, am weak, listless and no ambition to work or seek recreation. Am tired all the time and in no sense the strong, capable man 1 was a few years ago." Answer: A powerful rejuvenating nerve medicine should revive the dor mant, sluggish condition and put new ambition and energy into vour blood and nerves. Obtain three-grain cado mene tablets in sealed tubes, take as per directions. NOTK: For many years Dr. Baker has been giving free advice and pre scriptions to millions of people through the press columns, and doubtless has helped in relieving illness and distress more than any single individual in the world's history.
