Deafness Cannot be Cured

by local applications as they cannot roach the
diseased portion OF the ear: There Is only one
tional remedies. Deafness is caused by an in
famed condition OF the mucous lining of the
Eustachian Tube. When this tube is inf1amed
you have a rumbling 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.
which is nothing but an infamed condition of
the mucous surfaces

If the War Department needs more reg

seryioe, it has merely to announces that
fact and to enlist such regiments In the
regular army. There are thousands OF
4 patriots today who foam at the mouth
sswhen 1t is suggested that any territory on
(which the American flag has been planted
should be surrendered to Spain again.
Il Can the War Department. doubt that, if
l3 Irregular regiments wer made up with the
understanding that their service would
be performed in the retention of cap
tured territory, such regiments could be
= organized at once?-Boston Advertiser. u
We should say hat the War Depart

without being ohargeable with extraor-
dinary or unusual credulity. So far as
we have been able to observe the great
majority of patriots that foam at the
mouth at the suggestion OF returning
the seized territory to Spain would foam
at the mouth still more at the sugges.
tion that they enlist to help keep the flag

The Portland bers Of the First
Maine Regiment received a warm well
come home from the citizens of Portland,
but it was no warmer than they deserved.
They have seen no fighting, but fighting
is not the surest test to which the valor
and patriotism of the soldier can be put.
There is an excitement on the battlefield
that keeps his spirits up. The dreary
monotony of camp life with its hardships
and privations oftentiines tries mans
courage more severely and reveals more
accurately the stuff that is in him. The
men whom Portland welcomed last night
have been subjected to this test and
have not been found wanting. 1t can be
said of them that they have always done
their duty. and no greater praise than
that can be bestowed upon soldier.

q notable victory at the Democratic State
convention in that state. After four
hours fight they succeeded in expunging
from the platform any endorsement OF or
reference to the Chicagoi platform, and
inserting declar alton in favor of the
bi1netallism of jefferson. This is kind
of bimetallism that the Bryanites dom
want. because it is founded on the COM
mercial ratio while their kind pays no
heed to commercial values, but under
takes to equalize by law values that are
unequal. We believe this is the first
clear triumph that the gold Democrats
have won since Bryan was nominated at
