dicted that we would crowd our

never known here before, our
friends shook their heads and
said that Helena was not big
enough for such a business, that
there were not enough people
here. We have proven that there
are enough people here who
want 100 cents worth for a dollar
TO sustain our great business.
We have proven in New York
city that the same business
methods bring success. This
business and the New York

Deafness Cannot be cured.

by local applications as they cannot
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 Infatuated con-
dition of the mucous lining of the Eus-
tachian Tube. When this tube is inflam-
ed you have a rumbling sound or i'm
perfect hearing, and when it is entirely
closed, deafness is the result, and unless
the inflammation can be taken out and
this tube restored to its normal condi-
ton, hearing will be destroyed forever;
nine cases out of ten are caused by
catarrh, which is nothing but an infamed
condition of the mucous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars for
any case of deafness Caused by catarrh)
that cannot-be cured by Halls Catarrh.

After the Fire.

careful revision of the aggregate of
insurance carried by the sufferers in our
late fire is $4,000. The loss to the
companies will amount to nearly the
above figures. as the buildings were en-
tirely destroyed and practically none Of
the personal property was saved, so
rapidly did the fire spread. The insur-
ances average small compared with the
values. Twenty-six buildings were
burned, including nine mercantile blocks,
one hotel, two livery stables, five dwell
ings, six barns and three storehouses
In all 81 business firms and 10 families
were burned out, the only business block
left being brick one on Main street, at
the head of Depot street. with one gro
Gerry store and one furniture store in it
Gov. Woodbury. has signed a bill author
izing Lyndonville to expend $40, 900 in
improving it's water service. The citi-
zens will probably rebuild with brick, and
expend the $40, 900 in protection. There
is very general hopeful feeling, although
the loss exceeds the insurance consider
ably and a few had no insurance. Re-
building will commence at once.

structure and the contents of the vault

last Saturday morning by a telegram
stating that Patrick Morrison of this

and hung up the day before. He was
found about Is minutes later by another
hunter who carried the news to Kimball
who found him about a quarter OF a mile
