 Deafness Can't Be Cured by local application, as they cannot reach the diseased portion of the sear. There is only one way to cure deafness, and that is by constitutional remedies Deafness is caused by an infamed con- dition of the mucus lining of the Eusta- chian Tube. When this tube gets lnhamed you have rumbling sound or imperfect hearing, and when it is entire ly closed deafness is the result and 'un- less the inflammation can be taken out and this tube restored to it's normal condition, hearing will be destroyed forever nine cases out of ten are caused by catarrh, which is nothing but an infamed condition of the mucus surfaces. We will give One Hundred Dollars for any case of Deafness (caused by Cata1rh) that we cannot cure by taking Halls Catarrh Cure. Send for circu. lars, free.

SHARON VALLEY.
 In the Sharon column of the Amenia Times on Monday, June 3, we saw an item stating that ''scrub" game of ball was played on the Sharon grounds on Decoration day. The so-called ''scrub" game was played between the Mechan- ics of Sharon Valley and the first nine in Sharon, and resulted in an easy vic- tory for the Valley boys by score of IS to Il. Our boys think it was nothing more or less than an error in calling it { "scrub" game and believe it should have read, the Sharon boys received a terrible "scrubbing," owing to the su- perior all-round work of the opposing team.

Its organiza- tion of reporters and correspondents for col lecting the news in the territory described is wonderfully complete and the thoroughness In Boston and Washington The Republican employs trained journalists as it's regular cor respondents to supplement the news of the Associated Press, and in New York, Albany and other important centers it commands the aid of well-equipped special correspondents whenever occasion demands.
 In the treatment of political and social questions The Republican is thoroughly inde- pendent. It stands up always for the real in- terest of the people as against monopoly, cor | ruption, coercion, deception and every form of demagogism. It counts the welfare of the country as of more consequence every time than the success of any party. It seeks to be broad-minded, generous, fair and good-tem- l pered in it's discussions of public affairs, and 1 to represent aiways the true and pure Amer | ican spirit.
