slur upon the character of any

far this season our coal box has

Mr.. and Mrs ]. A. Gilbert, who
live in the Fairmount district, had
the misfortune to lose their little
6-year-old daughter last Friday
night by terrible accident. The
parents were in town, and the
daughter and a little girl friend
were attempting to build fire,
when the latter stepped out doors
in order to obtain supply of FIRE
wood. A cry of distress summoned
her to the house again, and when
she arrived it was to find the
the clothes OF her little friend ON
tire. She got her out of doors and
after considerable effort succeeded
IN extinguishing the flames, but
not until the little one had been
severely burned. pr. Zimmerman
was called and did his best to allie
viate the suferings OF the little
girl, until death claimed her on
New Years morning. The funeral
occurred Sunday afternoon, the
services being conducted by the
Rev. Robert Coltman, of the Pres
byterian church.

Deafness. c.nno. ,. c.r.s

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
remedies. Deafness
is caused by an inflamed condition
of the mucous lining of the Gus
tachian tube. When this tube gets
inflamed you have a rumbling sound
or imperfect hearing, and when
it is entirely closed deafness is
the result, and unless the infam-
nation can be taken out and this
tube restored to its normal condi-
ton, hearing will be destroyed for
ever. Nine cases out Of ten are
caused oy catarrh, which is nothing
but an infamed condition of the
mucous surfaces. We will give
One Hundred Dollars for any case
of deafness caused by catarrh that
cannot be cnred by Halls Catarrh
