CHICAGO. Dec. 12. Adoption of
a IfO-game schedule opening the
season on or about May 1, Is the
American league plan for the r
sumption of baseball In 1919 ai e
pressed at a protractea session f
the clubowners at their annual meet
ing here tonight.
D'eeus&ion of the schedule and
other questions took up so much
time that at ";45 p. ni. word was
sent that the dlseutslon would con
tinue several hours. Action on the
status of the players who deserted
their clubs lart summer to Join the
"Shipyard league" and the election
of a committee to meet with the na
tional league, were among the re
maining important ' questions to be
reettled.
Another move in the peth of r.c
trenrhment was the edclslon to
slash the club player limit from 25
to 21 men. starting fifteen days af
ter the pennant race ha begun. Dut
in ordr t3 take care of the pla.vers

special amendment was passed, to

TO RELIEVE CATARRH,
CATARRHAL DEAFNESS
ANDOIEAD NOISES
Persons suffering from catarrhal
deafness, or who are growing hard
of hearing and have head noises will
be glad to know that th's distress
ing affliction can uually be success
fully 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 ex
tent that the tick of a watch was
olainlv audible seven or eight inches
away from either ear. Therefore, ir
you know of someone wno ts trou-i
bled with head noises or catarrhal
deafness, cut out this formula and
hand it to them and you may have
been the means of saving some poor
sufferer perhaps from total deafness.
The prescription can be prepared at
home and Is made as follows:
Secure from your druggist 1 os.
Parmint (double strength). Take
this home and add to it pint of
hot water and a little gcanulated
sugar; stir until dissolved. Take
one tablespoonrul 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 equal-
! ize the air pressure on the drum, but
to correct any excess or secretions
In the middle ear, and the results
It gives are nearly always qujck and
effective. v
Every person who has catarrh in
any form, or distressing rumbling.
