CATARRHAL DEAFNESS AND HEAD NOISES If you know of some one who is troubled with Catarrhal Deafness. | head noises or ordinary catarrh cut t out this formula and hand it to them and you may have been the means of saving some poor sufferer perhaps i from total deafness. In England scientists for a long time past have recognized that catarrh is a consti tutional disease and necessarily re quires constitutional treatment. Sprays, inhalers and nose douches 1 are liable to irritate the delicate air passages and force the disease into I the middle eur which frequently | means total deafness, or else the dis- I ease may be driven down the air j passages towards the lungs which is ! equally as dangerous. The follow- I ing formula which is used extensive ly in the damp English climate is a constitutional treatment and should prove especially efficacious to suf ferers here who live under more fav orable climates conditions. Secure from Vour druggist 1 ounce of Farmint (Double strength). Take this home and add to it pint of hot water and a little granulated sugar; stir until dissolved.

ARIZONA AIRMAN DESTROYS THREE ENEMY BALLOONS Goes Out With Fellow Flyer and Completes Job in 35 Minutes By Associated Press With the American Army on the Lorraine Front, Sept 19.—Three enemy Balloons were destroyed on Tuesday night by Lieutenant F. Luke, Jr., of Phoenix, Ariz., on a nigh# into the German lines. This makes the total nine balloons in three days. With Lieutenant JjtF. Whener, of Everett, Mass., Luke left his air drome at dusk and crossed the line. Within 35 minutes the American aviators had completed their work of destruction and the flames could be seen from" the American alr > drome. One other balloon was destroyed yesterday and three more are be lieved to have been shot down, but the reports have not been confirmed. Bad weather prevented bombing, however, and the only observation possible was the adjustment of artil lery fire. In the artillery exchange of Tues day the American gunners held the upper hand, destroying German am munition dumps near La Chaussee, in aditlon to a big gun, and making direct hits on the railroad near Chainbley. A number of box cars also were destroyed by direct hits near Chambley. Tuesday night the Germans threw eight hundred shells into the regions around Xanimes, Beney and Chateau St. Benoit.

Ready to Go to War, Wilder Lands in Jail Bending almost to the breaking point under a double burden of woe and beer, William Wilder, of dusky hue, startled residents of Seventh street, nor of Reily, last evening. A few minutes past 6 o'clock his cries aroused the neighborhood and there was a hasty -exit from unfinished suppers to learn the cause of the noise. The multitude saw Wilder, la boring under great excitement, stum- I ble north on Seventh street, emitting yells that wereout of place save in a Wild West show or on an Indian reservation. He could see sufficiently to get to his boarding house, but the welcome therewas so frosty that he remained, held from falling or doing harm, on a rear porch until the pa trol automobile arrived and took him to the police station. Wilder had spent the greater part of the afternoon in a drinking place and had fully accomplished his purpose In reducing the stock in trade. "I'm ready to go to war," he cried in words that sounded like almost any thing else. His course toward France was diverted when the police came. FOUR SENT TO TRAINING SCHOOL BY BOARD NO.

HARTS FORCES TIGHTEN GRIP ON SLQUENTIN Yesterday's Attack Against German Lines Achieves Important Results _____ • By Associated Prist With the British Army in France, Sept. 19.—The British troops made a powerful attack against the German lines to the west and northwest, of St. Quentin yesterday and most im portant results were achieved.. A deep advance into the enemy terri tory strengthened the already pow erful grip the British have on St. Quentin, one of the most strongly fortified parts of the Hfndenburg line. To the sduth the French co operated In what is likely to prove an operation of vast portent with re spect to the Hlndenburg defensive position. , The zone Involved in the British movement lay, roughly, between Hol non, on the south, and Couzeaucourt Within a few hours Pelziere. Tem pleux Le Guerard, Epehy, Ronssoy and Villeret were behind the advanc-j ed British forces, and bitter fighting was In progress at many other points in the forward zone. More than 3,000 prisoners have already been sent back to the cages. The advance thus far recorded— In some places more than two miles —means that the British have at numerous points gained the crest of the ridge along which their old front line ran prior to the German offen sive in March, and from their new positions were looking down on the Hlndenburg line in the valley to the east. Germans Fight Fiercely That hard fighting would be en countered in this sector was a fore gone conclusion. The main enemy op position came from machine guns and artillery.' The counter barrage which the Germans sent over In re ply to the British bombardment was much more severe than the enemy had been able to provide fci the re cent fighting and, as an additional feature, the Germans maintained a heavy bayrage over the back areas with .high velocity guns, which had been concentrated for the purpose. The German infantry surrendered quite freely In places. In fact. In the center of the attack where the Aus tralians were working, a considerable number of graycoats deliberately charged through the British barrage to give themselves up. The operation cannot be consider ed as a major operation, as compar ed with recent battles. The objectives sought, however, were important, both from the defensive and offen sive standpoints. • Attack Begins at Dawn The assault began at dawn. Rain began to fall about 2 o'clock, and when the British went over the top the ground was already slimy and hard to negotiate, especially when the ridges were reached and the men had to charge up them. Tanks ac companied th® troops and rendered invaluable service in the early stages of the conflict, which waxed warfli from the start. On the north Pelziere and a strongly fortified sugar factory to the northeast were taken by storm after hard fighting. Epehy proved a tough nut to crack. Here the famous Alpine corps had been brought up, and the German army boasts no bet ter troops than these. It was futile to attempt a frontal attack against this place, which was fairly bristling with machine guns. The British, accordingly, worked about it to the north and south and squeezed it out. Ronssoy was carried by storm and a hundred prisoners were gleaned from the surviving gar rison. In the center the Australians had to fight for every inch of ground they took, but they pushed steadily for ward until they reached the crest of tlje ridge. By 8.30 o'clock the Aus tralians had already taken a total of 500 prisoners. Most of these were Bavarians and men of the First Ger man reserve division and they ap peared to be a poor class of men as they came straggling back. One of the hottest engagements took place Just south of Le Verguier, where the Germans had fortified themselves in a mill. This stronghold was surrounded and 180 of the gar rison were forced to surrender. On the right flank there was equally hard fighting. Holnon had been taken on Tuesday as a preli minary to yesterday's attack, and from this point the British went for ward. Tuesday night German airplanes were busy bombing the St. Quentin sector, and the enemy utilized a number of new type planes of huge size. Three of these were shot down east of Peronne. They were capable of seating eight men. The most as tounding thing about them, however, was that they carrftd bombs thirteen feet long which contained 2,000 pounds of explosives. This is by far the biggest bomb the Germans have yet produced. sHTbuR DAY IS TO BP BASIS IN WAGE DISPUTES New York, Sept. 19.—The general application of the principle of a basic eight-hour day by the War Labor Board in settling all future working ljour disputes was forecast here last night by Frank P.
