Deaf.... Can, s.Cnr.s

oy local applications, as they cannot reach the diseased portion of the ear. There is only one way to cure deafness, and that is by con- stitutional remedies. Deafness is caused by an infiamed condition of the mucous lining of the Eustachian Tube. When this tube gets lnfamed you have rumbling sound or i'm perfect hearing, and when 1t 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 infiamed condition of the mucuous sur faces.
 We will give one hundred dollars for any case of deafness (caused by catarrh) that we cannot cure by taking Halls Catarrh Cure. Send for circulars, free.

Looking Backward.

Charles Gillette. one of the octogen- arians of Canaan, was in reminiscent mood last Friday afternoon and men, tioned many events that occurred long ago in this village. We will, however, give only three of his personal recollec- tions which are substantially as follows: 1T we'll remember the presidential cam paigu when Cassius M. Clay of Kentucky delivered an address in the grove in this village then standing on the land since transformed into Reed street. Gillette street, and the yard of the o. N. E. rail way. That campaign was in 1844."
 "The first show that I ever attended was held on the premises now owned and occupied by Mrs Hiram Eddy. At that time there was . barn south of tho house. and a row of horse sheds which reached to the street. A canvas was erected in semi circle in front of the sheds and the show was thus held part ly under cover. An elephant. llama, snd other animals were exhibited. The elephant was . performing one and among other tricks carried . man around on it's tusks. That was the first time I ever saw the elephant. had York shilling left after attending the show and with that bought a card of ginger bread end half a pound of brown sugar at John Franklin's store nearby and had a feast"
 "I remember 8 Masonic celebration of St. Johns Day here in Canaan many years ago when the late Fitch Ferris, Harvey Couch and William Russell were prominent Masons, and were dressed in full regslis. The celebration was held in an old orchard which then occupied the ground between the present resi- dence of 8. w. Barnes and s. 0. Beck ley. An evergreen bower was built in the orchard for the occasion. There were many Masons present, and crowd of spectators. and all had royal good time."

sho, Through a FIa,iron.

A public exhibition of the force of . common Mauser rife used by the Span ish soldier at San Juan hill was recently given at Fort Scott, Ksns, with won- derful results. The rife was brought home by Capt. A. M. Wilson of the Twenty third Kansas. A ball shot from it against the flat side of common flat iron penetrated the iron. leaving hole as smooth as if iswere { pine board. The ball. in going out on the opposite side, scaled the iron as an ordinary bull let would a board. Then three shots were fired against a steel axe blade. Two of them gouged deep holes into the steel and the third bulged it on the opposite side.

10 loving remembrance Of our dear moth
er, who died two years ago, September IL
1897
1.-TWO mournful years have vanished,
Think we while our tear drops START
But the memory Of our beloved one
Still is fresh within our hearts.
"Oh the misery of that dreary night,
When we stood around her bed,
Till death stole upon her softly,
And we knew her soul had fled.
"Ah since then our lives are saddened,
Since that night our hopes are slain;
But her voice seems sweetly saying:
Courage We shall meet again.
BY her Children.

On the 7th day Of next November the
people of Maryland will have an opportu-
nifty to choose their Governor and other
State and county officers. Whether or not
the present administration of affairs in this
State, with its record as current history
known to all men, and with the opportuni.
ties OF a retention of power, shall be con-
tinued, is the question that is brought face
to lace TO every voter.
That it is the duty of every citizen of this
State to exercise the right of franchise is a
truth that cannot be too frequently reiter-
ated. That many Of those best qualified by
education, knowledge, and experience for
an intelligent exercise of this right, are
those most prone to neglect it is fact that
calls forth this appeal to every man who be-
lieves in efficient public servants and honest
and capable conduct of affairs, to lay aside
sacrifice if need be-his personal interests
for a few hours and devote that time to the
service of his county and State.
Prior to the exercise of this high right of
citizenship, registration is necessary. In
the counties of this state there is no gen.
eral registration this year, but for the pur.
pose OF supplementary registration the reg
listers will sit in the several election pre-
cincts of your county on Tuesday, October
3, from 8 A. M. TOT z. M. and Tuesday,
October 10, during the same hours. For the
purpose of revision only, at which date no
new names will be added, they will sit on
Tuesday, October 18th. Remember these
dates.
Not only is it the duty of every citizen TO
register himself, and, through the regular
channels of his party, to see that his friends
and neighbors are registered, but it Is like
wise his duty to see that the lists are purged
of all names that by reason OF death, re-
moval, crime, illegality, or fraud should be
stricken therelrom.
Let every democrat interest himself in
this important matter, and the cause Of
good government 80 auspiciously inaugu.
rated in the City of Baltimore In May, will
be continued in the State in November.
MURRAY VANDIvEB,
Chairman Democratic State
Central Committee.
