There is only one way to cure deafness.

Deafness is caused by an infamed condis

ed you have rumbling sound or imper-
feet tearing, and when it is entirely

The Sun may yet yield some light
on some things. though it's illuminating
capacity is rapidly diminishing. But it
receives no light. not even from events
calculated to throw light on the dark

lest to reflect. Why are Democrats in
creasing so rapidly in all sections of
the land,-presumab bly,, too, from the
change OF Republicans to Democratic?
Is it TO be bought back by Hanna and
his agents next year? No, no: we shall
not believe that even of Republicans.
And why all this demonstrative enthu-
siasm for Bryan. wherever he appears,
or his name is mentioned? These and
other pro-Bryan indications are the
leading signs of the times, and their
meaning is not only that the people
believe in and trust him, but that he
will be their candidate for President
next year, and their President for at
least four years succeeding, while Han

He has been employed by the people
ever since he reached manhood, and
he is retained for life in their service,
no matter what or where he may be.
He is man of the people. by the
people, for the people. and as $500, 900
voted for him in 1896. they will next
year vote him an aggregate that Hanna
will not dare to defraud.
