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 TRmedies.
Deafness is caused by an inAhlIed con-
ditiou of the mucous lining OF the Eus-
tachian Tube. When this tube is in
daped you have a rumbling sound or
imperfect hearing, ann when il is en-
Lirely closed, Deafness is the result,
and unless the Inflammation can be ta-
ken out and this tube restored to it's
normal condition, hearing will be de-
stroyed forever, nine cases out of ten
are caused by Catarrh. which Is moth
ing but an inflamed condition OF the
mucous surfaces.
We will givs One Hundred Dollars
for any case of Deafness (caused by ca
tarra) that cannot be cured by Halls
Catarrh Cure. Send for circulars; free.

Shore Acres.

James A. Herne's beautiful play of
American home life, Shore Acres"
was put on the boards at the Auditor
ium Friday evening. A large and ap-
preciative audience of the best people
of Marietta witnessed the play and felt
more than repaid, as Archie Boyd was
the bachelor uncle to perfection and
was we'll supported by an able comp
any. The stage effects were splendid,
portraying American home surround
ings in a manner that to those who are
acquainted with American farm life,
the settings were highly, appropriate.
No scenes were overdrawn, although
to one who has never seen the simple
I,hSme life OF American farmers, where
Free and easy manners and good fel-
AdWship are The rule and not the ex-
ception, it might seem that 1t would
hardly be possible that it was copied
from nature, but such is the case3 The

Munchausen 0utdone.

The horrible news comes from
Squire Jones farm, near Cumberland,
that a boy climbed a corn-stalk to see
how the corn was getting along and
now the stalk is growing up faster
than the boy can climb down; the boy
is plum out of sight. Three men have
undertaken to cut down the stalk with
axes and save the boy from starving,
but it grows so fast that they cant
whack twice in the same place, The
boy is living on nothing but raw corn,
and has already thrown down. over
four bushels of cobs." The above
story, probably, is not entirely correct,
but there is no doubt aboutthe fertile
farms of old Guernsey being great pro-
ducers.-Cambridge Sun.

The furlough of the Vermont regi
ment expires next Tuesday and unless
different orders are received between
now and then, the members will have
to return to Fort Ethan Allen to be
mustered out of the service of the

have requested that the different COM
panies be mustered out at their own
armories. This is just and reason

partment at Washington should grant.
A good many in the regiment are now
seriously sick and could not be present
at the mastering out anyway. Many
others are just recovering from sick

again be resOrted to and 1T Is easy to
see the consequences. At this time of

The State Legislature.

Next Wednesday, Oct. 5, the gener-
al assembly of Vermont will convene
in the state capitol. Though nearly
all the members elected have not had
legislative experience there are a few
among them who have served In
ike capacity before. In ability the
House Will compare favorably with
former ones. Some of the towns, es,,
pecially the larger ones, send men OF
recognized ability throughout the
state. The Senate should be unusual,
" strong, for it will be composed OF
some of the ablest men in the state,
among them Gen. J. G. Mccullough OF
bennington, The speaker OF the
House will undoubtedly be Col. KIT
tredge Haskins of Brattleboro, and the
indications are that he will have no
opponent unless the democrats put, up
a candidate simply to show their
strength. Col. Haskins has the neces-
sary legislative experience and the
ability to preside over the proceedings
of the House in a most satisfactory
manner. The members of the next
general assembly will certainly have
