To Relieve Catarrh And Head Noises Persons suffering from catarrhal deafness or head noises due to catarrh will be glad to know that this distressing affliction can usually be successfully treated at home by an internal medicine that in many instances has effected complete relief after other treatments have failed. 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 catarrhal deafness or head noises due to catarrh, cut out this paragraph and hand it to them, and you may have been the means of saving some poor sufferer, perhaps from total deafness. The medicine can be prepared at home and is made as follows: Secure from Hook's or your druggist a 1 oa. bottle of Purmint (Double Strength). Take this home, and add to it pint of hot water and a little 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 inflammation and swelling in the Eustachian Tubes, and thus to equalize the air pressure on the drum, but to correct uy excess of secretions in the ntiddio car. and the results it gives are nearly always quick and effective. Every person who has catarrh should give this prescription a trial—Advertisement.

DEATH DEFEATS RESCUEEFFORT Youth, Entombed by Slide, Lifeless When Reached. By United Press SHAMOKIN, Pa., Jan. 14—Rescuers digging frantically in relays failed to save the life of Edward Topolski, 22, entombed under fifteen tons of slate by a slide in an abandoned colliery Tuesday. The youth’s body was reached late Wednesday night after his head had been uncovered twice during the day, with Topolski still alive. Additional slides buried him before he could be taken out. Death apparently was due to suffocation and injuries, as the body was pinned between two rocks. Ben Topolski, a cousin of the vic-

Little hope was entertained for the youth after he was buried by the third slide, but the men did not relax their efforts. They even risked their lives as additional slides were threatened by rain.

It started with little red pimples, then blisters, and when they broke wet, sore eruptions formed. They itched so much that the little fellow scratched until they would bleed. His clothing bothered the breaking out on his arm, and he used to cry at night because the eruptions burned so badly. “I sent for free samples of Cuticura Soap and Ointment.

BRITON BRINGS ‘GONDOLA CAR' TO AUTO SHOW Smooth Riding at 80-Mile Clip Is Claimed for Freak Model. NEW YORK, Jan. ?4.— Sir Ddnistoun Burney, in charge of the dirigible R-101 during its construction, has arrived from England with anew automobile model of his own design that has auto show attendants talking. Only four of the cars have been manufactured. The first was bought by the prince of Wales, and it travels eighty miles an hour so smoothly one may write, pour out drinks (in England), or play a talking machine while riding in it. His model will turn a corner ten miles faster than the average car, he says. Like Airship Gondola It has 28-horse power and can be stopped in a very short space. It resembles an airship gondola. Its shape reduces air resistance to half that of the presentday car, he says. The engine is concealed in the rear part of the car which has a semi-circular roof with seats inside for six persons, and armchairs for two more. He will not exhibit the model at the automobile show, but will find space for it in a Broadway showroom, he said, and will start manufacture in England shortly. Meanwhile, attendance at the show is averaging 50 per cent more than last year, with more sales reported. After Foreign Sales Most manufacturers are turning toward an effort to increase foreign sales, with increases practically assured in the domestic market. Reciprocal tariff revision is suggested by most of them to restore employment to American workmen and bring back domestic prosperity. They argue that reciprocal tariffs would provide people abroad with means to pay for American goods and the products of American labor.

fHEY TELL ME
BY BEN STERN ALTHOUGH Coroner Fred w. Vehling refuses to resign, even though indicted and awaiting impeachment hearing, Democratic leaders and county commissioners are going ahead with consideration of a successor. The party leaders have suggested, quite emphatically, to Commissioners Dow’ Vorhies and Tom Ellis, that the man who ran second in the 1930 primary should be the choice. The second runne. is Dr. William E. Arbuckle, who received 4,326 votes, against 4,920 for Vehling. In event that there can be no agreement, then the third man. Dr. E. M. Amos, who rceived 4.002 votes, should get the call, they say. They insist, however, above all things that the man to replace Vehling must be a physician. “No more undertakers” is the dictates of both County Chairman H. Nathan Swaim and City Chairman Kirk McKinney. u u tt This sort of puts the red light on the activities of Luther Shirley, president of the Irvington Democratic Club, who, with the aid of friends has been putting on a spirited campaign. Shirley is an undertaker—or funeral director (pardon, please)—and after the bitter experience with Vehling, there is a distinct feeling in Democratic ranks that the coroner should be a physician.

There is, however, a third group which vigorously is sponsoring Dr. Robert Dwyer, nominee several times in off years, who went to the block with his ticket without a murmur. Dr. Dwyer was not a candidate in the last primary and it was the split vote which enabled Vehling to obtain the nomination, although opposed by the organization. tt a a The Dwyer supporters number many of the candidates with him in the Democratic off years, and they are quite open in their demands that his past services be rewarded. Their contention is that in each of the hopeless races Dwyer was ready to bear his burden of the campaign expenditures and did not shirk his efforts in behalf of the party. But, of course, after all is said, the contentions are rather premature, for Vehling still has a grip on the job.
