Deafness Cannot 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 infamed condition Of the
mucous lining Of the Eustachian Tube.
When this tube is inflamed you have a
rumbling sound or imperfect hearing, and
when it is entirely closed, deafness is
the result, and unless the inflammation can
be taken out and this tube restored to It's
normal condition, hearing will be destroy
ed forever; nine cases out of ten are caus-
ed by catarrh, which is nothing but an
intiamed condition of the mucous sur
faces.

Mr. Christopher Says Six Hydraulic
Plants Are Going In.

Mr.. Charles Christopher, who has nego-
tiated more large Atlin mining deals than
any other man in the country during the
season recently closed, is authority for the
statement that there will be not less than
a half dozen large hydraulic plants put in
operation In Atlin with the opening of

country will exceed $5,O00.00O He says:
1.-THE gold commissioner collected roy
atty on about 100000 this summer, but he
failed to collect on more than half the out
put. There was at least $500, 900 taken
out of the Attn gold fields this year. and
next year the output will exceed s., 900 900.
Last summer the great majority of the
miners did not get to work before August
