always the lot of juniors and seniors to

years.
"I am' inclined to be optimistic," he
said, "for today's total Is even better
than was expetced. If it is true that
many of the upper classmen -are not
registered. I think this fact s? good In
dication that he 1000 mark, will be
nearly reached before the books are
closed this semester."
In line today were vtwo blind stu
dents, one a sophomore and the other
a special from the Eugene Bible Uni
versity. . Recitations Bea-ln Tomorrow.
The sophomore, Thomas Cuttsforth,

tained from raised surface books and
attention in the lecture rooms. Leslie
Blake, of Eugene, is the other blind
student. Blake is studying history at
the state institution in connection with

CUT THIS OUT
OLD EXGLISH RECIPE FOR CATARRHAL
1KAFESS AN L HEAD KOIS1SS.
If you know of someone who Is troubled
with Catarrhal Deafness, head noises or
ordinary catarrh cut out this formula and
band it to them and you will have bean the
means of saVlng- borne poor sufferer perhaps
from total deafness. In Encland scientists
for a long- time past have recognized that
catarrh Is a constitutional disease and nec
essarily requires a constitutional treatment.
Sprays. Inhalers and nose douches are
liable to irritate the delicate .air passages
and force the disease Into the middle ear,
which frequently means total deafness, or
else the disease Is driven down the air
passages towards the lungs, which is equally
as dangerous. The following formula, which
is used extensively In the damp English cli
mate, is a constitutional treatment and
should prove especially efficacious to suf
ferers here who live under more favorable
climate conditions.
Secure from your druggist 1 ounce of
Parmlnt (doubla strength). Take this home
and add to lt U pint of hot water and 4
ounces of granulated sugar; stir until dis
solved. Take one tablespoonf ul four times
a day. Thu will often bring quick relief
from distressing bead noises. Clogged
nostrils should open, breathing become asy
and bearing Improve as the Inflammation
in the eustachian tubes is reduced. Parmlnt
Is used In this way as It acta directly upon
the blood and mucous surfaces of the system
and has a slight tonic action that facilitates
th-a recovery of the patient. The prepara
tion Is easy to make, costs little and Is
pleasant to take. Every person who has
catarrh should, give this treatment a trial.
-Adv,
to another delegate whose time has ex
pired, provided that no one speaker
may use In all more than the time of
two other delegates besides himself.
The foregoing rule shall apply to
discussion of motions after the report
of the committee on resolutions is held.
The time limit for speakers on mo
tions which do not pertain to the sub
ject of the land grant shall be two
minutes, and no delegate shall be per
mitted to avail himself of time sur
rendered by any other delegate with
