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 inffamed condition of the
mucous lining of the Eustachian Tube.
When this tube gets infiamed you have a
rumbling sound or imperfect 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 condition, hearing will be destroy

LEAvENwoRTH, May 1.-The national
board of managers of the Soldiers homes
has decided the question as to who are
legally entitled to the advantages of the

decision is against outsiders and here
after none except veterans regularly adj
mitted are to receive the gold cure.

Kas.:
The board, while approaching your
able and successful efforts in alleviating
the vice of drunkenness at the western
branch, after mature deliberatiOn, does
not consider that it has the right to ex-
pend one cent for any purpose whatever
from the appropriation for the home
upon persons who are not legally entitled
to the benefits of the home. 1t, there
fore, passed the following order: That
the gold cure treatment for intemper-
ance in the several branches of the home
be confined &c, members of the home, reg
ularly admitted.
Respectfully yours,

President.
This question has been discussed con-
siderably within the past year and some
months ago was presented before the ma
tional board. The decision is final, and
as will be seen, applies to all the branch
homes.
Since the Kelley league was estab-
lished at the local branch more than 100
members of the regular army fIom Fort

of that number from Fort Leavenworth
