When DR.. Hayes, Buffalo, N. Y, an
nounced nearly, twenty years ago, that he
could cure Asthma SO that the sufferer
would stay cured, few believed him, for they
doubted the permanency of the cures which
he established. For many years DIR.
Hayes has been issuing annually his Thesis
with Reports of Cases." each recurring sea-
son strengthening his position; and it is a
remarkable fact that many of the first cases
reported are still represented in his book,
for they have stayed cured-some for nine
teen years, some for sixteen or more years,
others for twelve, ten, eight and six years.
The names and addresses of the patients are
given in full, SO that anyone who now doubts
may consult the former sufferers freely. DR..
Hayes practice now extends not only to
Great Britain and the continent of Europe,
but to India, Australia, New Zealand and
South Africa as well. Each patient is
treated Individually by separate prescrip-
tons varied from time to time as frequent
correspondence shows is needed and in this
way success is attained in even the most
difficult and obstinate cases. Any sufferer
or person interested can obtain the latest
edition of DIR. Hayes book on application
on postal addressed to him at Buffalo.

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 infamed you have a rumbing
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 it's normal con
dition, hearing will be destroyed forever;
nine cases of of ten are caused by catarrh,
which is nothing but an inhamed condition
of the mucous surfaces
We will give One Hundred Dollars for any
case of Deafness Caused by catarrh that
cannot be cured by Halls Catarrh Cure.

Guilty of Man.Iaurhter.

Norman Smith, on trial in Oskaloosa
for murder, was found guilty of man
slaughter as charged in the indictment.
The crime was committed on December
Is, 1897. De Long, the murdered man,
was son of Ed De Long, and Norman
Smith is son of David Smith, two
wealthy Mahaska county farmers and
land owners. The young men were
neighbors and had always seemingly
been upon the best of terms, but both
had been paying attentions to the same
girl.
