NESS AND HEAD NOISES If you know of some one who is ¥roubled with Catarrhal Deafne ead noises or ordinary catarrh, cut out this formula and hand it to them and you may have been the mean of saving some poor sufferer perhaps from total deafness. In England scientists for a long time past have recognized that catarrh is a constitu- tional disease and necessarily requir- es constitutional treatment. Sprays, inhalers and nose douches are liab's to irritate the delicate air passages and force the disease into the middle ear, which frequently means total deafness, or else the di- sease may be driven down the air passages towards the lungs which is equally as dangerous. The follow- ing formula which is used extensive ly in the damp English climate is a copstitutional treatment and should prove especially efficacious to suffer- ors here who live under more favor- able climate conditions. Secure from your druggist 1 ounce of Parmint (Double strength), Take this home and add to it i pint of hat water and a little granulated sugar; stir until dissolved. Take one tablespoonful four times a day This will often bring, quick relief from distressing head noises. Clog- ged nostrils should open, breathing become easy and hearing improve as the inflammation in the eustachian | tubes is reduced. Parmint used in this way acts directly upon the blood And mucous surfaces of the system | and has a tonic action that helps to obtain the desired resuits. The pre- paration Is easy to make, costs little and is pleasant to take. Every per- son who has catarrh or head noises or is hard of hearing should' give this treatment a trial Neuralgic Pains Qive Way to Soothing Hamiin's Wizard Ol Hamlin' Wizard Oil is a safe and effective treatment for headache and English People Dislike Frame Houses Like Those Used in Canadian Cities HE prejudice being exhibited | in England toward frame houses seems curious to the Canadian mind. Not many ¢ houses are bullt mow in the r cities, because fire regulations and the high cost of lumber stand in the way. The severity of the win- ters makes brick or stone more sub- stantial. But England bas a climate | that resembles the British Columbia | coast, and in Vancouver, Victoria and | other coast cities the frame residence | is the regular thing. And in the hands of British Columbia builders, who are so familiar with timber and woodwork, they become things of beauty The attempt to introduce frame dwellings in England does not arise from an excess of lumber, or | cheapness of it, but simply because the materials for a sufficient number of brick or stone houses cannot be obtained. Army huts, tents, river boats and shacks are occupied by hundreds of thousands of people waiting for more houses. The Gov- ernment housing plan contemplates the erection of at least 300,000 more | { dwellings, but like most Government | plans, the scheme gets great adver- i tising with little result. Dr. Addison, Minister of Health, | recently stated that in "England 500,000 houses were required. Housing schemes provided for 40.- 000, and of these about 8,000 were being erected. It may be mentioned that ih 1919 Toronto alone is build- ing 2,600 new houses. Such slow- ness creates a demand for a substi tute. The editor of the Spectator, J. St. Leo Strachey, advocates cot- tages of rammed earth, technically known as "'pise en terre." Others are booming hollow concrete blocks. But the wooden house is most favor- ed, and the newspapers have been conducting an education campaign. | Wooden houses are rare, but not un- (known. In Kent and Essex "'weath- {erboard" houses have stood the test of a hundred years. The economic argument for them seems unanswer- | able. A "mill-cut" cottage can be erected at a cost of about $1,400, iagainst $2,000 required for a small | brick or stone house. In larger, houses the cost would be from two-thirds to one-half that of brick housest Dr. Addison objects to the scheme, how. ever, because, he says, the "mill- cut" houses are only four walls with a roof clapped on. He figures | they arc, in the end, only § per cent. cheaper than substantial brick houses, and claims that the damp climaté is against them. But British Columbia has a damp climate, and | 80 has Norway, where frame houses abound. The fire risk is met there by having detached dwellings, located | in the smail towns and villages in such a way that risk is kept to a minimum. | A very substantial difficulty in the | way is the obstruction offered by the | local ordinances or "by-laws" in most districts, The requirements imposed by these by-laws are often absolutely | prohibitive of the erection of any | {wooden houses. But the Ministry of | { Health has the power to supersede | them by general regu.ations of its | own, and it was announced a few | | days ago that steps are to be taken | {in this direction. The Ministry de- | | clares itself eager to investigate the | whole question, and to that ead it | has accepted the offer of the Agent | General for British Columbia to send { over a sample house, which is to be | | placed on public view, so that its | | advantages and disadvantages may | be impartially weighed. In contrast | { with this is the offer of William F. | | Regan, once well known in the min- | Rubbed in where the pain [ing world, who undertakes to de- | is, it acts as a tonic to the tortw merves and almost invariably brings quick relief.
