acteristics of the present storm has

Deafness Cannot BE Cured

by local applications as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
There is only one way to cure deaf
ness and this is by constitutional
remedies. Deafness is caused by an
infiamed condition of the mucous
lining of the eustachian tube. When
this tube is infamed you have Il
rumbling sound or imperfect hearing
and when it is entirely closed. deaf
ness is the result, and unless the i'll
flammation 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 i'll
famed condition of the mucous sur
faces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars
for any case of deafness Caused by
catarrh) that cannot be cured by

Chamberlain For Speaker.

The denomination OF Hon. +. G. Cham

ment OF one of the foremost young Re-
pubicans OF the lower house Of Michi-
gan's last legislature. That he will be
elected by a large majority is certainty.
Notwithstanding the fact that Byron
5. Waite, OF Menominee, Is seeking the
Republican Hominatlon for the legisla-
tire with view to entering the speaker
ship contest, the News Record believes
the Upper Peninsula members will stand
by Chamberlain. Waite has habit of
pushing himself forward for pretty
much every thing in sight, regardless Of
OF the claims of others. and the instance
has been known wneTe his persistency
and seltishnesS In a state convention lost
to the Upper Peninsula place on the
state ticket to which 1t was entitled.
That was four years ago. Waite ought
to know that the Upper Peninsula must
be unit In presenting the name of one
OF her members tor the speakership, and
we believe the sentiment Is crystaliZing
In favor Of Chamberlain.

WILD BILL A SOLID MAN.
The Body OF the Famous Desperate
Turned to stone Long Ago.

The Body OF the Famous Desperate
Turned to stone Long Ago.
The climate OF Colorado is so eX-
ceedingly dry in parts of the state that
ordinary objects, such as potatoes,
vegetables of various sorts, and even
small animals, petrify when covered
with sand. A considerable source of
revenue to the guides and vendors in
the Grand canon and other famous
resorts is the sale of petrified wood
and other material to tourists. Human
bodies have been known to undergo
the petrifying process in numerous
instances. The body of Wild Bill,
the famous desperate, is to-day solid
stone. He was buried near Tel
luride, and about four years
ago his friends decided to
put up monument to his
memory. They went out to his grave,
which is in the open prairie, and one
of the party, an old scout, was taken
buried. The sand had shifted and
blown in great heaps. and the scout
had good deal of difficulty in abso-
lutely locating the spot Finally he
struck mound that he said had Wild
Bill under it. Owing TO the uncer-
tainty of the situation and his hest
fancy, the party decided to dig down
and see whether he was right. They
didn't want to put monument over
sand heap unless it had Wild Bill
under it. So they dug down. Pres
emily the spade ran into a rocll--a
scarce thing in that country. They
shoveled all around it and soon re-
vealed the petrified image of Wild
Bill as perfect as the day he died,
with not a trace of decomposition.
Even the clothes and shoes were
turned to stone. Some of the party
wanted to take the body up for pur-
poses of exhibition. But one of Bills
old pals, Shorty Jake, as he was
called, remarked that the first man
who tried to do so would find bed in
the hole that Bill filed. So the idea
was abandoned
