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 that is by constitutional rem
edies. Deafness is caused by an in
famed condition of the mucous lining
of the Eustachian Tube. When the
tube gets infamed you have rumb-
ling sound or imperfect hearing, and
when it is entirely closed Deafness
is the result, and unless the infamma-
ton can be taken out and this tube re-
stored to it's normal condition, hearing
will be destroyed forever; nine cases
out of ten are caused by catarrh /;
which is nothing but an infamed con-
dition OF the mucous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars
for anv case of Deafness (eaused by
catarrh) that cannot be cured by Halls

In the neighboring villages there Is a
legend as to how Sayreville became yell

In it, and that one day an enterprising
peddler on his notion selling rounds
saw in this an opportunity :or money
making. He procured large quantity
of damaged paint at nearby city, all
of the paint being in various hues OF
yellow, from bright orange down to the
dullest buff. This paint he carted to
Sayreville and sold at low prices, and
still with large profit to himself. Then
the town set about painting itself yell
low. Some of the people pooled their
interests and their paints and ornament

Others ran to stripes, and having used
up one tint filed in with the rest. One
man tried polka dots in chrome on o

sons will find it very delightful way
to spend an evening. In party of la.
dies and gentlemen the better way is fol

known as "ladies nest, the otGer as
gentlemen nest" placing them at
opposite ends Of the table, Each player
then receives hand of six cards, dealt
one at time. These hands are placed
face down directly in front of each
player.
The play is from the banker to the
left, and each player turns up q card,
and the play continues until an ace is
turned. The privilege of turning the
top card of center nests is taken by the
first player of each side. When an ace
is turned up, it is placed in the center
OF the table, and the fun begins The
purpose of the game is TO exhaust thr
center nests, and the game is won BY
the side exhausting their nest first. The |
sequences in the center of the table are |

center sequences, his or his partners

play possible on penalty of FORGETTING
