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 constitu-
tional remedies. Deafness is caused by an in.
hamed condition OF the mucous lining of the
Eustachian Tube. When this tube is inriamed
you have a rnmbling sound or imperfect hear.
Ing, and whenit is entirely closed, deafness is
the result, 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

ATLETHiC CLUBS ELEVEN.
A Strong Team Which Will Do Credit ia
Portland on the Grounds.

The Portland Athletic club has brought
together some fret class material for their
proposed football team during the last
week, and the men have already begun
practice in the gy mnasiun. The athletic
club Of other cities have long been put
ting teams into the field, each fall, made
up mostly of ex.college players. The best
known organizations are perhaps the Bos-
ton, Newton and Chicago Athletic clubs.
These clubs play the big colleges and al
ways with good success, as often times
the very best men Of AN old Harvard or
Yale team will think it the joy OF their
life to score on their alma mater.
AS the High school team is very uncer-
tain of recognition this fall, much in
terest will center in the Athletic clubs.
games and Portland will probably see
some star games with the material al
ready at hand. Among the candidates
for the team will be recognized some
familiar names and faces.
warren, the old Harvard player who
coached last years High school team, is
as good man for guard as there is in
| the state, barring Jim Coombs perhaps.
Coombs played on tbs Brown college team
as guard and center for four years, ana is
just now coaching Maine Stats. He will
return early enough to join the Athletic
club team and will be a candidate for
center. Frank Smith is strongly built
man, weighing 225 pounds, and he will
probably play in the center of the limo.
Another big nan is Gabaripo, who has
played some local football before. Both
of these last named men will need
coaching. but will develop rapidly.
For tackles, Rev. G. Everett Bean,
Dorticos, Rummery and Marsh are all
msn who have considerable knowledge Of
the game, and can be depended on for
strength in the line.
Trying for the end positions will be
Charley Perry, an old Andover and Yale
athlete. Lamb an ex-Colby player, and
Kelley of High school fame, and Chapman
of last years Deering High.
Beh ind the line the outlook is particu-
larly bright. At quarter back Johnny
Sullivan will be in his old time winning
form. He played at Hebron and on the
Portland teams for many seasons. His
running mates will be Chapman, a crack
Bowdoin end, at one half, and Billy Bux-
ton of Hebron and Portland High on the
other. Buxton played very successful
back at Hebron and now weighing much
more he will be very hard man to stop
in line buoking game. At full back
Macreadie will catch punts ana return
them. He played on the Chicago Athletic
team few years ago, and is lively
player.
No coach has been spoken Of as yet but
Warren is fully capable of taking charge
of the squad as well as nlling his position
at guard.
Below is list of the names and weight
of the candidates for the team:
