Deafness Can Not be Cnrod

by local applications as they can not
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 infamed con-
dltion OF the mucous lining of the
Eustachian Tube. When this tube gets
inflamed you have a rumbling sound
or imperfect hearing, and when it is
entirely closed deafness is the results,
and unless the inflammation can be taken
out and this tube restored to its normal
condition hearing will be destroyed
forever; nine cases out of ten are
caused by catarrh, which is nothing
but an inflamed condition of the mu-
cous surfaces.
We will give one hundred dollars for
any cases of deafness (caused by ca
tarrh) that can not be cured by Halls
Catarrh Cure. Send for circulars, free.

THESE SAYINGS.

Some Epigrammatic Notes Taken From the
RAMS Horn.
Christ lived in all the truth He
taught.
God made other men to show US what
is in US.
The Christian ilwho worries much,
prays too little.
There is nc faith in the prayer that
expects no answer.
A good man slife is q voice in which
many hear God speak.
No matter how God warns the sinner
He always does it in love.
A sinners life is full of things he
tries to hide from himself.
No one who loves as Christ loved can
live in this world without making it
better.
1t is not hard to believe in Christ
when we see His face Ii the lives Of
those we love.
Putting sand in sugar is no worse
than claiming to be a saint and living
like a sinner.
There is no trouble 80 bad that we
may not get good out of it by talking
1T over with the Lord.
Every man who has tried it, will
testify that it is uphill business trying
to liYe religious without religion.
We wrong God and cheat men, IL we
refuse to let our light shine as it should,
because tallow is expensive.
AS long as the devil can have the
first chance at our children he will not
care how high we build our church
steeples.
How much better is the ma who
will rob by dishonest trade than the
one who knocks down his victim with
a sandbag?

ABSOLUTELY PURE
THE RALLY.

The Largest Crowd Ever Seen in Jonesboro.
Last Tuesday was q day that will
long be remembered by the people of
Washington County. 1t was the date
OF the Republican and Sound Money
Rally, postponed from the 18th. The
day was one of particular fitness for
such an occasion, warm enough to
make outdoor exercises pleasant. At
an early hour in the morning the peo.
pie began to arrive, and by $50 the
streets were pretty we'll filled. Flags
and banners, bunting and flowers were
profusely used as decorations, and the
town presented a gay appearance.
BY 10 O'Clock the town was packed
n overrun, and to attempt to get
through the crowd was to undertake
the impossible. AT 1890 the marshals
started the crowd out West Main Street
for the purpose.of forming a procession,
which was done on the Fall Branch
road, near Jas. McPherson's .. The pro.
cession arrived in town at 10 O'Clock
and occupying 40 minutes in passing
the school house, and contained SO4
persons in vehicles and on horses.
Flags by the hundreds ornamented
the crowd. Scores of banners were
carried, all Of. which bore inscriptions
appropriate to the occasion. MANY
pictures of Mckinley, Hobart and Till
man were seen, and the presence of
yellow ribbon, sashes and flowers was
constant. A large number of ladies
we're in procession-on horseback and
in vehicles. E. A. Shipley, F. E. Brit.
ton, Jasper Peoples, Theodore Hacker
and Geo. NJ. Farnham were Chief
Marshals, assisted by several aids.
The sidewalks on each side of the
street were packed with spectators,
and shouts for McKinly and Tillman
were heard along the line. The utmost
good feeling prevailed, and no acct.
dents marred the harmony of the day.
Some amusing features were pre-.
sented and some grotesque costumes
worn. The crowd in town is said to
have been the largest ever seen here.
Take it all in all, it was a fitting f.
male to a magnificent campaign and a
glorious victory.
