Deafness Cannot be Cured

by local application, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear
There is only one way to cure deaf
ness, and that is by constitutional
remedies. Deafness is caused by an
infamed condition of the mucous
lining of the Eustachian Tube. When
this tube gets infamed you have a
rumbling sound or imperfect hearing,
and when it is entirely closed deaf
ness is the result, and unless the in
famation can be taken out and this
tube restored to it's normal condition,
hearing will be restored to its normal
forever; nine cases out of ten are
caused by 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

The following good little story is
told of a young Lawrence, Kansas,
doctor who took his best girl to the
opera not long since. The curtain
was late in rising, and the young lady
complained of feeling faint. The
doctor smiled sweetIy upon her, took
something out of his vest pocket and
whispered to her to keep the "tablet in
her mouth, not to swallow it. She
shyly placed it on her tongue and
rolled it over and over, but it would
not dissolve; she felt better, however.
So when the show was over she put
the tablet in her glove, being curious
to examine at home this tasteless, in
dissolute little substance which had
given her so much relief in the opera
house. When alone in her room she
pulled off her glove and out came a
pants button.

II, 1898, and remember, too, that on the
18th day of April, 1898, the president,
whom he so unjustly criticizes, sent a
message to the house and senate and
1t was not only read, but printed in the
record of that day, in which he says:
In the name of humanity, in the
name of civilization, in behalf of en-
dangered American interests which
gives US the right and the duty to speak
and act, the war in Cuba must STOP

message of the 18th to see how unjustly

he did it maliciously. The president said
the day before Mr.. Botkin made his
speech and Mr.. Botkin knew it, that he,

that the war in Cuba must stop, and
that the issue was with congress and
that he was ready to do his duty

FOUR BOXES DID 1T.
Remarkable Success Of a New Pile
Cure.

People who have suffered for months
or years from the pain and inconvenl-

will look with skepticism upon the
claims of the makers of the new dis
cOverv for cure of all forms of piles,
known under the name OF PyraInl1ai . Tie
Cure: nevertheless the extraordinary
cures performed by this remedy are
such as to warrant the investigation OF
any sufferer. AS a case in point the
following letter speaks for itself.

thought was better, but told him that

the cure used two more boxes, making
four in all. I am now completely cured;

Physicians recommend the Pyramid
Pile Cure because it contains no opium,
cocaine. or mineral poison of any kind.
and because it is so safe and pleasant
to use, being painless and applied at
night. The patient is cured in a sur
nrisingly short time with no inconveni-
ence whatever.

Then Captain TOtten submits an "Om1n-

that Christs words as given in Luke, xxi,

clares this should be that and the
promise of the Savior refers to the far fu-

the present is the final year, nor have
the centuries a duplicate to the one now

cal calculations are not exactly clear to
1ayman's mind, though the students say
study shows them to be absolutely, and in
this instance Startlingly, accurate. a mis-

f1fty-eighth generation began a 1891.
At this time the Savior was a lad teach
