Deafness Cannot be Cured

by local applications, as they cam
not reach the diseased portion OF
the ear There is only one way to
cure deafness, and that is by con-
stitutlonal remedies. Deafness is
caused by an inhamed condition OF
the mucous lining of the Eustachian
Tube. When this tube gets infamed
you have a rumbling sound or i'm
perfect hearing and when it is en-
tirely closed deafness is the result
aud unless the Inflammation can be
taken out and this tube restored to
it's normal condition, hearing will be
destroyed forever; nine cases out Of
ten are caused by catarrh, which is
nothing but an inAamed condition
of the mucous surfaces.

Who Will be our Next President

Politicians are now planning for
the presidential CAMPAIGN of 1900,
but the war has so overshadowed all
other matters that politics is almost
unnoticed. Many people are of the
opinion that the candidates will be
the same as in 1896, but there may
be dark horse who will win the
race, Popularity has much to DO
With candidates, This is also true
with medicine. The most popular
remedy to day is Hostetter's Stom-
ach Bitters, and it has retained this
for many years, Science never dis
covered the equal OF this medicine
for stomach, liver and kidney dis
eases. Itbuilds up solid flesh tissue,
imparts vigor aud vitality to all
organs, and makes life worth living
A bottle will make a big change for
the better Try it.

Diseases Of Children,

from The EDening Creacens, AppEeton NJ,

The story Of remarkable cure from q
disease which has generally wrecked the

among the residents Of the west end Of Apple.

The case is that of little Willard Creech,
son of Richard ID. Creech, q well known
employe of one of the large paper mills in
the Fox River Valley The lad was attacked
by spinal disease and his parents had given
up all hope of his ever being we'll again
when, as by miracle, he was healed and is
now in school, as happy as any of his mates.

He grew worse instead of better and
was absolutely helpless. His lower limbs
were paralyzed and when we used cleo

Oar darling, sweet Lawson Odell. is
dead.
The little son of Mr.. and Mrs. D. L.
Webb died August i, 1898, aged two
months and one day. He had been with
us but short while, but had won many
hearts to love him by his sweet babv
ways, All that loving hearts could do
was gladly done, but none could stav the
hand of death No regrets fill the hearts
OF the fond mother and father as re.
CARDS their devotion to their angel bow.
We may mourn his loss, but he has gone
to eternal lest. His pure spirit will
giauden the choir in heaven. While
earth has lost heaven has gained.
For many dear children we know do
stand
Tuning their harps to the better land :
Their hands from each sounding string
Bring sweet music while the angels sing.
Time hath not power

And folded his cold hands upon his

Till God called him home to suffer no

Seal mine eyes in death
That once must seal the eyes Of all.

All of Mr.. Creech's neighbors were cogni-
zant of the work done by DR.. Williams Pink
Pills, and many of them are using the pills In
their families
The blood is the vital element in our lives
consequently it must be kept pure, rich and
red In order to have perfect health. The
cause of little Willard Creech's sickness was
disordered blood. He had skilled medical
treatment but derived no benefit until DR..
Williams Pink Pills for Pale People were
used and these cured him.
This proves that this remedy is the beat
means of imparting those elements that purify
vitalize and enrich the blood, thus aiding
bodily functions and arousing every organ
into healthful action and in this way restoring
the entire system. That is the reason wby
DR.. Williams Pink Pills for Pale People cure
so many diseases, why doctors prescribe them.
why druggists recommend them and Whv thew

Almost Forgotten Tract Set Aside bv Will.
liam Penn Preserved InviOiate.
Philadelphia contains one relio of the
days OF William Penn which is nm
known to most inhabitants of the
Quaker City. 1t is small portion of
ground which still retains by virtue of
a provision in the charter its original
character Right in the heart of the bus
mess section of the city it lies the only
place for miles around that bears no
footprints of the march of progress
and commerce, the only building lot ia
the city which has never been In the
hands of real estate agent.
You have but to go down Walnut
street to Second, turn up Second until
you come to little iron gate on the
east side of the street, swing it back
and enter, and you stand within the
Indian reservation.
In the days when Philadelphia used
to be the metropolis for the red men.
and they came by various trails across
the country and down the Delaware
TO hold council there it became neces.
sary for them to have some appointed
snot for their conclaves William
Penn dedicated this reservation to
them as trysting place, and provided
that it should be sacred to their use
forever.
1t is a forlorn enough place now,
shut in as it is by high buildings on
nearly every side. The old Union
Telegraph Office confronts it on one
side, a wholesale liquor Dealers store
backs up against it on another, and
high board fence chokes off the last
hope of any outlook for the place.
There is no mark TO tell of its orig
inal use or to stamp 1t as one of the
curiosities of the day. Ones only SOL
ace for this grievance is to imagine
that the stealGhy tread of moccasined
feet is still echOing there, and that the
strange words of the redskins tongue
have left some spell upon the place
In size it is poor comment upon
PENIS generosity, for it scarcely af-
fords room sufficient to turn a wagon
and pair of horses. Perhaps because
of it's microscopic dimensions there
has never been any attempt to en-
crOach upon the rights of the old
reservation.
For more than a century it has stood
in its native state in the midst of the
great city, relic of a pathetic past,
an heirloom for owners who will never
reclaim it.

A Timely RehnkA.

The Unitarian ministers of Boston got
plain talking to the other night. At
banquet we'll known citizen called the
clergy to task for the spirit of blood
thirstiness many of them have shown
during the war with Spain and since.
There has been too much savage gloatlng
in the pulpit over the predicaments of
Spain, says the out-spoken critic, and a
spirit of conquest is being appealed to
by ministers which is not in keeping
with the teachings of their Master. The
rebuke has not come any too soon, judg~
ing from the Monday morning notes of
pulpit utterances in some of the north
