DEAFNESS CANNOT BE CURED by local applications as they cannot reach the diseased portion of the ear. There is only one way to cure deafness, and that is by constitutional remedies. Deatnesss is caused by an intiamed condition of the mucous lining of the Eustachian tube. When this tube gets infiamed you have rumbling sound or imperfect hear ing, and when it is entirely closed deafness is he result,and unless tneinflammation can be taken out and this tube restored to it's normal condition, hearing will be destroyed forever; nine cases out ot ten are caused by catarrh, which is nothing but inf1amed Econdition of he mucous surface.
 We will give One Hundred Dollars tor any case of Deafness (caused by catarrh) that can not be cured by Halls Cure. Send for cir culars, free.

in every way that lay in her power to aid in advancing the interest of the church, whether by her influence or her labor When the encroacbments of the dread disease made such threads upon her health that she could DO longer join in the labors of others, still her love for the church never f4gged, nor did her desire for it's pros sperity, and to the iast her prayers were offered for it. She ever gave evidence of the reality of the grace she had received and in the last months she never murmured at Gods visitation 1: her faith and trust never wayered and as it became clear to all that the time of dissolution was not far away she looked upon it's near approach fearlessly, nay, even confidently, and awaited the end calmly. To those about her it seemed certain that "all was well with her." that the angel Of death had for her no terrors, and that she would welcome him, not as an enemy, but as deIiverer. On We'd nesday in Holy Week one who had loved her dearly, Rev Clarence Ernest Ball of Grace church, Alex4ndr4, VA., said over her body the beautiful words of the bur ial service of the church she loved so we'll and it was laid to rest in the sweet calm of 'God's acre" in Roxbury Center, near the dear old church from which she had drawn those stores of grace she had used so well, there to await that glad awaking of the resurrection morn, and the meeting with her Lord.
 Sweet be her rest.
 Gods grace, in Christ. had given the peace,
 Deep in her breast,
 Which all her sorrow did but increase, And to eternity shall never cease.-CB.
