TUESDAY EVENING, POLITICAL SPEECH HAUNTS LEWIS Harding Has Illinois Man's Campaign Address Put in Senate Record Washington, June 5. Senator Lewis, of Illinois, campaigning prior to the recent specinl congressional election in New Hampshire, charged that a vote cast for the Republican candidate would be accepted as a vote to dishonor the president anil defeat America. This speech was brought to the at tention of the Senate by Senator Harding, of Ohio, who asked that the Lewis speech be printed in the rec ord. Inasmuch as the Republican and not the Democratic candidate was elected in New Hampshire. Senator Harding said the suggestion maw by Senator Lewis in the campaign, aside from being entirely without justifica tion, would have the effect now of placing the people of that State in a pecliar light If.the senator's state ment were permitted to go unchal lenged. The portion o fthe Lewis speech to be printed in the record says: "Or will the district select a gentleman of whom it could be said he was an op ponent of the policies of the presi dent, and of whom thereafter throughout the world it will be said was elected upon the issue of dis honoring the president and defeat ing America?" "After the administration," said Senator Harding, "has been so cor dially and so effectively supported in both branches of congress by mem bers without regard to party affilia tions, the answer of the people of the first district of New Hampshire after this succinct statement of the sen ator from Illinois is rather a misfor tune than a matter of congratula tion." , Badly in Need of Men to Harvest Crops in Oklahoma and Kansas The need of men to assist in har vesting the crops in Oklahoma and Kansas is being emphasized by the government through advertising- Posters. including information, were j placed in the Harrisburg post office to-day by the United States Depart ! ment of I^abor.

Catarrhal Deafness May Be Overcome A simple, safe and reliable way that calls for no ugly trum pets, phones or other instruments To be deaf Is very annoying and ! embarrassing. People who are deaf are generally mighty sensitive on this subject. And yet many deaf folks carry around instruments that call at tention to their infirmity. Therefore people who are hard of hearing, who suffer from head noises, or who are actually deaf from catarrhal trouble, , will be glad to know of a simple recipe that can be easily made up at home for a few cents' cost that Is really quite efficient in relieving the disagreeable deafness and head noises ! caused by catarrh. I From any drug store get one ounce iof (double strength) about ! 75c worth. Take this home and put ; It Into a simple syrup made of pint of hot water and four ounces of ordi ! nary granulated sugar. Take a ] tablespoonful four times a day. This treatment should by tonic ac ! tion reduce the Inflammation in the middle ear that a catarrhal condition ■would be likely to cause and with the i inflammation gone the distressing (head noises, headaches, cloudv think ing and that dull feeling in "the ears ■ should gradually disappear. Anyone | who suffers from catarrh, catarrhal deafness or head noises should give Parmint a trial. It is pleasant to j take and is quite Inexpensive.—Adver tisement. ff EME RICK'S rjksn Sanitary Barber Shop, | jfwVNS Satisfaction Guaranteed 1 sAberdeen St. Opposite P. R. R.
