The postofice at Berkeley Springs
was entered by burglars one night
last week, who blew open the safe and
stole stamps, money and other articles
of value to the amount of upwards Of
81 600. From the way in which the
burglars worked and the tools they
used, it is likely that it WAS the same
gang that attempted to Oh the bank in
Shepherdstown. Yesterday French
man named Charles S. w. De Formiere
Was arrested in the mountains near
Hancock, charged with being one Of
the robbers. There Is good reason to
believe he is one of the guilty parties.

Deafness Csnnot be Cured

By local applications as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
There is only one way to cure deafness,
and that is by constitutional remedies.
Deafness is caused by an infiamed condi-
ton of the mucous lining OF the Eus-
tachian Tube. When this tube is in
famed you have rumbling sound or
imperfect hearing, and when it is en-
tirely closed, Deafness is the result, and
unless the inflammation can BE- taken out
and this tube restored 10 its normal con-
dition, hearing will be destroyed forev
err; nine cases out OF ten are caused by
Catarrh. which is nothing but an in
famed condition of the mucous surfaces.

We will in the future, as in the past,

same are endorsed by u.s. If anything is
wrong we are here to right it.
Should there be any persons who were
in the store during the sale who possibly did
not get the attention deserved, we hope they
will pardon the same this time. as it was i'm
possible to give the time and attention during
the rush that is always gladly given here.
Again repeating our thanks for the con-
fldence and patronage of all, we would simply
add that it will be good policy to watch our
ads for real values in all goods sold by us.
Very respectfully.
