Deafness Cannot Be Cured

By local applications 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
inhamed condition Of the mucous lin
ing Of the Eustachian Tube. When
this tube is inhamed you have rumb-
ling sound or imperfect hearing, and
when it is entirely closed, deafness Is
the result, and unless the inflam ma
ton can be taken out and this tube
restored to its normal condition hear
ing will be destroyed forever; nine
cases out Of ten are caused by ca
tarrh, which is nothing but an in
famed condition Of the mucous sur
faces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars
for any case Of deafness, caused by
catarrh, that cannot be cured by

SAYS SHE couRrED HIN.
W. H. Catch Tells the Story Of His
Marriage.

An answer was filed in the divorce
case of Louise Catch VS.. W. H. Catch.
1t is a very positive denial OF the
things charged and makes interesting
reading. Mr.. Catch says his wife
wrote to him before he had ever heard
Of her, he went to her home in South
Dakota and then married her. She
told him she had been divorced. In
fact he says she is 50 years old and
had been divorced four times before
he met her. He says she spent her
time gadding about the neighborhood
and called him all sorts Of bad names.
He thinks she was simply after his
money. To the answer is attached
some OF her letters and copy Of her
petition for divorce filed in Topeka
a year ago. That case was dismissed.

paid the dollar went to get his lodg-
