Deafness Can,r be Cured i.

by local application, as they can not reach the diseased portion of the ear. There Is only one way to cure Deafness, and that Is by constitutional remedies. Deafness is caused by an infiamed con- dition of the mucus lining of the Eus- tachian Tube. When this tube gets in- famed you have a rumbling sound or imperfect hearing, and when it is en- tirely closed Deafness Is the result, and unless the inflamationscan be taken out and this tube restored to it's normal condition, hearing will be destroyed forever; nine cases out of ten are caus- ed by catarrh, which is nothing but an inflamed condition of the mucus sur faces.
 We will give One Hundred Dollars for any case of Deafness (caused by Ca tarrh) that we can not cure by taking Halls Catarrh Cure. Send for circu- lars, free.

Died

RowLAED.-Nancy Saida Rowland, wife of c. w. Rowland and daughter oi R. J. Parton and Conny Parton, was born in Tennessee, July 16th, 1857, re- moved with her parents to Arkansas in early life, professed religion in 1875 and joined the NJ. E. church, South in 1888, and departed this life near Hunt ingCon, Ark, Jan. l5, 1889.
 As a wife, Sister Rowland was indeed a helpmeet to her husband, assisting him in bearing the burdens of life. As mother, patient and faithful, as a friend, kind and obliging, and as a Christian she was deeply in earnest. A few days previous to her death she sx- pressed willingness to die, only re- gretting to leave her children. She is now doubtless enjoying the bliss of heaven with her two children who pre- csded her to the better land.
 She leaves husband, five children, an aged mother six sisters, one brother and a host of friends to mourn her loss. May God guide and direct them so as to meet her in the beautiful beyond.
 Sister, rest from sin and sorrow,
 Death Is o'er and life is won.
 On thy slumber dawns tomorrow
 Rest, thine earthly race is run.

 Her Sisters.

 The killing Of W. c. Marbsrry by Charley Forehand near Dover on the afternoon Of Monday last has thrown that community into the widest excite ment and created widespread sensa- ton throughout the county. The shoot ing took place near the residence Of Forehand, and, 30 far as is known at present, no one witnessed the affair ex- cept the principals In the deplorable tragedy. Considerable mystery sur rounds the affair. Forehand's state ment is to the effect that finding Mar berry near his house he emptied the contents of q shot gun into his body. After which Marberry made an attempt to shoot him and he shot Mar berry again killing him instantly. As generally understood the trouble arose over family affair in which mans psrfidy and woman's faithlsssness formed a con- spicuous part. After the shooting Forshand surrendered, and as his sx- smining trIal is now in progress at Do yer we withhold further comments un- til all the facts are fully brought out. MT. Marberry was useful and highly y respected citizen, and one Of the most talented and popular physicians In the county. He was a widower, having married daughter of the late Capt. Hollow of Dover. His wife has been dead several years. He was to have been married in a few days to young lady In Searcy.
