Deafness Can't be Cured

by local applications, 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 infamed con-
dition of the mucous lining OF the Eus-
tachian Tube. When this tube gets in
famed you have rumbling sound or
imperfect hearing, and when it is entire
" closed Deafness is the result, and un-
less the inflammation can be taken out
and this tube restored to its normal con-
dition, hearing will be destroyed forever;
nine cases out of ten are caused by
catarrh, which is nothing but an inflam-
ed condition of the mucous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars for
any case of Deafness Caused by catarrh)
that we can not cure by taking Halls

Letter from Capt. A. ]. Gross.

EDITOR BRECKENRIDGE NEWS:
1t is rumored that the Wheelers OF
Breckenridge county contemplate max
ing nomination for Representative in
the Legislature, 10 be voted for at the
August election. | am surprised and
panied at the report, as | was distinctly
told when | joined the order that it
would not engage in an independent
political movement. | can readily see
why the Republican Wheelers through
out Kentucky should desire an indie
pendent movement, as they have moth
ing to lose by it; but in view of the fact
that what the farmers complain of in our
national legislation is the result of the
domination of the Republican party,
cannot see what Wheelers have to gain
by the discontinue of the Democratic
party. Should they try it shall aban-
don the order. ! was Democrat long
before the Wheel was ever thought Of.
If it's here to antagonize my party, |
cannot encourage it.
Let all good Democrats stand together,
shoulder TO shoulder. II is only through
the triumph OF Democratic principles
that Wheelers and those who labor will
get their rights Let the Democrats ev-
erywhere stand by their colors. Let
the Old Guard prepare for action. Vic
tory is in the air; | can smell it,
Respectfully, A. J. GRoss.
