HE HAD ENOUGH.
The Butchers Experience OF Justices
Justice Was Satisfying.

Justice Was Satisfying.
"Hickorytown was wild with ex-
element when / was there Friday"
said the big drummer to others of his
craft at the same table, says the De-
troit Free Press. THE butchers dog
bit the Doctors daughter, the doctor
shot the dog, the butcher thrashed
the doctor and the doctor had the
butcher arrested for assault and bat
terry. The justice of the peace before
whom the trial came of is a long,
loose-jointed farmer, who looks like a
bald-headed eagle and plays dominoes
with the doctor.
Read that thar Indictment order
ed the court with more JUNCTION than
accuracy. This done, he continued:
You've heered tn charge that you as
saulted and battered this here man

pie of this here state. Be you guilty or
not guilty?'
Not guilty, yer honor.

Tense TO offer and is entitled to hear

Nothin' of tn sortv shouted the
justice. / cackerlate l wouldn't been

IAN Anidavit from Kalamazoo
STATE OF MICHIGAN,

COUNTY OF KALAMAZOO.
On the I'd day of February, A. ID. 1895
personally appeared before me, notary
public in and for the County and State
aforesaid Carrot Rabbers. who is to me
known to be creditable witness, who, being
duly sworn deposes and says that he has
resided in the City of Kalamazoo nearly %
years, during which time he has worked at
the trade Of blacsmthng; that about "a
years ago he contracted n severe cold which
laid the foundation for kidney trouble
which grew upon him with such severity as
to almost totally disable him from working
at his trade finally compelling him to give
up the horseshoeing branch thereof; that he
has used every remedy called to his atten-
tion by friends and advertisement for relief,
but without receiving any permanent ben
eft; that fortunately few months ago he
heard of Doans Kidney Pills and their mar
velous effect upon others, and was induced
to give them trial, which resulted in
gradual but sure removal of all traces of
this kidney trouble. He began 10 feel the
bene fetal results after taking two doses of
the Pills. and upon continued use for n few
weeks his pains from kidney trouble entirely
disappeared, and to all intents and purposes
made new man of him. He has resumed
the horseshoeing department of his trade
without any suffering or Inconvenience from
said disease, and believes himself thoroughly
and entirely cured from it.

Wheat: The wheat has been dull and I'M
interesting during the past week within a
range of &c. The fear Of the December
deal is keeping both buyers and sellers out
of the market and until this manipulation
Is out of the way we do not look for much
activity As we have previously stated We
believed at soc for May wheat it was a
good purchase, every time it has sold there
1t has gone uD over a cent. Buy it at goo
and you will make no mistake.
Corn and Oats: Corn has been dull
within rather narrow range, early in the
week there was a little rally on covering
by shorts but the market soon weakened
again. 1t is a scalping market for the time
being for about 12c profit either way. Oats
have been very active and higher, especial
ly for the December option, shorts getting
scared and bidding the market up. The ex-
port demand for both corn and oats is ex-
celent and we believe both corn and oats
are a good purchase.
Pork: Dull and embarrassing and inclined
to weakness, but holds fairly steady at the
decline. Buy January pork at present

OLE O'MARJERIN,
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. Deafness is
caused by an inflamed condition of the mu-
cous lining Of the Eustachian Tube. When
this tube gets inflamed you have 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 cOndi-
ton, hearing will be destroyed forever; nine
cases out Of ten are caused by catarrh.
which Is nothing but an inlamed condition
of the mucous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars for
any case Of Deafness Caused by catarrh)
