CUT THIS OUT" OI.U ENGLISH KECIPI-: FOR CA TARRH. CATAUKHVI, DEtF XESS AND HHAIJ NOISES If you know someone who is trou bled with head noises, or Catarrhal Deafness, cut out this formula, and liand it to them and you may have been the means of saving some poor sufferer perhaps from total deafniss. We believe that Catarrh, Catarrhal Deafness, head noises, etc.. are caused by constitutional disease, and that salves, sprays, inhalers, etc., merely temporize with the complaint and sel dom, if ever, effect a permanent cure. This being so. much time has been spent in perfecting a pure, gentle, yet effective tonic that should quickly dis pel all traces of the catarrhal poison from the system. The effective pre scription which was eventually formulated is given below in an un derstandable form so that anyone can use it in their own home at little ex pense. Secure from your druggist 1 oz. Par mint (Double Strength). Take this home and add to it U pint of hot wa ter and 4 oz. of granulated sugar; stir until dissolved. Take one table spoonful four times a day. The tirst dose should begin to re lisv* the distressing head noises, headache, dullness, cloudy thinking, etc., while the hearing should rapidly return as the system is invigorated by I i_he tonic action of the treatment. I Doss of smell and mucus dropping- in the back of the throat are other symptoms that show the presence of catarrhal poison, and which are often overcome by this efficacious treat ment.

FRIDAY EVENING, 3SNEWS mvNOTES OF THE BOY SCOUTS $ Troop Eleven Did Its Bit at Scout Rally Troop 11 "Old its bit" at the Scout Rally on Monday evening, January 14. In a time of need for an event with action, the Glee Club steDPed forward and the boys volunteered their services. The piano was locked up and as the keys were not in the building the club had to sing under the circumstances. Scout Shaner sang a 010, "There's a Long, Long Trail," with the boys joining in the chorus. "Sure, We Have Some Big America" was sung as an encore and "Carry Me Back to Old Vir ginny" followed. It proved to be very successful. Troop 11 is getting tired of see ing only one scout of all Harris burg giving flremaking exhibitions and the boys are working hard at the firemaking set which the troop purchased some time ago. Several of the boys can make the fire in good time by now, although. Spar row, of Troop 6, has the record. The fellows hope to at least give him :i hot chase to hold the record that he has established. The postponement of the rally en abled the boys to get more practice on the races that were to take place last Monday night. We are confi dent that the boys will carry off some of the honors on Monday night. Charles H. Crist, Scout Scribe.

The following letter has been re ceived from President Wilson: "The White House, "3 December, 1917. "My Dear Mr. Livingstone: "I desire to entrust the Boy Scouts of America with a new and important commission, to make them the Government dispatch bear ers in carrying to the homes of their community the pamphlets on the war prepared by the Committee on Public Information. The excellent services performed by the Boy Scouts in the past encourages me to believe that this new task will be cheerfully and faithfully discharged. "Sincerely yours, (Signed) "Woodrow Wilson. Scouts Aid the Red Cross in Urgent War Work Even before the war, the Red Cross Christmas Seal campaign was a big: undertaking. Now that the Red Cross has shouldered the enormous task of caring for the sick and wounded soldiers of the United States Army and all the armies of the Allies, it will need the help of all scouts in selling Red i Cross seals this Christmas. The ■ money will be used for keeping up j the fight against tuberculosis. The Boy Scouts of America will j engage in a sale of Red Cross seals. They look upon this undertaking as I one of their contributions to the | Red Cross work and will have an I energetic campaign for the disposal j of the seals. The Boy Scouts in Indianapolis made a house-to-house canvass for the Red Cross seals. In Louisville several teams of Boy Scouts canvassed the prominent ho tels and merchants of the city to ask their co-operation by display ing Red Cross Christmas seals and other signs in their windows and other locations in their establish ment as a reminder to the public.
