Doafness Cannot be Cured

Deafness CANNOT DC OuFou
by local applications. as they cannot
reach the diseased portion Of the ear.
There is only one way to cure Deaf
ness, and that is by constitutional rem
edies. Deafness is caused by an IN
famed condition of the mucous lining
Of the Eustachian Tube. When this
tube gets infamed you have rumb
ling 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
t. its normal condition, hearing will be
destroyed forever; nine cases out OFT
are caused by catarrh, which is nothing
but an inAamed condition OF the NIL
cous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars
for any case of Deafness Caused by ca

Prizes on Patents.
How to get $500 and Perhaps
Make a Fortune.

We secure patents and to induce people to
keep track of their bright ideas we offer
prize of one hundred dollars to be paid on
the first of every month to the person who
submits to US the most meritorious invention
during the preceding month. We will also
advertise the Invention free of charge in the
National Recorders weekly newspaper, pub
ished in Washington, D. c., which has an
extensive circulation throughout the United
States ana is devoted to the interests of in.
ventOrs.
NOT so HARD AS 1T SEEMS.
The idea of being able to invent something
trikes most people as being very difficult;
this delusion the Company wishes to dispel.
1t is the simple things and small inventions
that make the greatest amount of money and
the complex ones are seldom profitable Al
most everybody, at some time or another,
conceiyes an idea, which, if patented, would
probably be worth to HIM IA fortune. Unfor.
tunatcly such ideas are usually dismissed
without thought. The simple invention like
the car window which could be easily slid up
and d ,wn withou, breaking the passengers
back, the sauce pan, the collar button, the
nut lock- the bottle stopper, the snow shovel
are things that almost everyone sees some
way of improving upon, and it is these kind
of Inventions that bring the greatest returns
, to the author.
The prize we offer at the end of each month
will be paid whether the application has
been acted upon by the Patent Office or note
Every competitor must apply for n patent on
his invention through us, and whether he Sc
cures the prize or not, the inventor will haV

Nobody has yet discovered or formu-
lated reason why such a process
should bring certain relief. Physicians
say that it is probably because the re-
f1ex action Of the body brings about a re-
f1ex action on the brain, and thus drives
away the pain that when produced by
nervousness is the result of too much
going forward. AS soon as you begin to
walk backward, however, there comes
a feeling of everything being reversed,
and this is followed by relief. The re-
lief is always certain and generally
speedy. Ten minutes is the longest I
have ever found necessary. An entry,
or long narrow room makes the best
place for such promenade. You should
walk very slowly, letting the ball of

should, in theory, walk forward, but
which, in practice, is so rarely done.
Besides curing nervous headache, there
is no better way to learn to walk well
and gracefully forward than the prac-
tice of walking backward. A half hour
of it once a day will do wonders to-

know that Charley was engaged to two

decide which voice it was, which made
it very embarrassing situation for
Charley. wrong guess would lead
to complications awful to think of. But
a happy thought inspired Charley. and
he announced: Its the dearest, sweet
