DEAFNESS CANNOT BE CURED

by local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portions Of the ear.
There is only one way to cure Deafness,
and that is by constitutional remedies.
Deafness is caused by an infamed condi-
tion of the mucous lining Of the Eusta-
chan Tube. When this tube gets in
famed you have a 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 to it's normal con-
dition, hearing will be destroyed forever;
nine cases out of ten are caused by ca
tarrh, which is nothing but an inflamed
condition Of the mucous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars for
any case OF Deafness (caused by catarrh,
that cannot be cured by Halls CatarrE

at the Minnesota State Fair, as well as
at the wonderful show at Omaha.
Mr.. Cecil Palmer, the artist who drew
the subject for our engraving, regards the
group as the finest subject he ever un-
dertook. The trueness Of the likeness
portraying as it does, the individual
character of each animal-makes the pic
ture a delight to all lovers Of good cattle.
The work is a credit to any artist, and
particularly to an American artist, for
we do not believe Bonheur or Landseer
or any other artist can excel this master
piece of Mr.. Palmer's in it's excellence as
model of animal portraiture.

ThiCkset is believed at Weavergrace to
be the only rival in the Hereford breed
that Sir BredwelI has. There are some
breeders who rate him higher, but COM
petent judges have always differed on the
merits of these two animals; 1t is thought
Thickset will excel Sir Bredwell in
weight while retaining essentially as
much quality. Thickset was the Cham
pion 2-year-old bull at the Minnesota
State Fair, and first prize at the Illinois
State Fair, and second at the Omaha Ex-
position, where his defeat was probably
the only unpopular award made by the
Omaha Judge in the estimation of the
spectators. There were numerous cries
to change the ribbons" when Thickset
danced gaily with the second ribbon in
the show ring Second prize in this
ring, however, was great honor, for 1t
is unQuestioned that it was the grandeSt
ring of 2-year-old bulls ever seen in the
show ring, and there was at least three
animals on which the first prize could
have been placed by any good judge,
without incurring serious criticism. Sir
Bredwell and Thickset were very potent

WashingtOn's Birthday.

The most patriotic entertainment ever
held in this city, will be IN given
Educational Hall, tomorrow afternoon,
beginning at two o'clock. Over 400 chill
dren under nine years of age will repre-
sent living flag. Their songs of pa
triotism will be worth going miles to
hear, and we know there will be a crowd,
and we hope if the attendance is wond-
rous great that Mrs. Thornhill will have
the performance repeated. Besides the
patriotic songs there will be various
other exercises by the little folks. The
several primary teachers of the first and
second grades have been very busy the
last few days making preparations for
this event. The admittance fee, 10
cents, is a very small one, to pay the ex-
penses connected with the giving of the
entertainment.
The pupils in the rooms of Miss Coul-
ter and Miss Barr in the East Building,
of Miss Mccormick and Mics Jordan in
the Central Building; Miss Fulton and
Miss Mason in the West Building;
and Miss Aiken and Miss Emmons
in the South Building; will form the
living flag.

Attorney Wallace Brown is investi-
eating the question of liability of our
city for damages, for Judge Milten-
berger's death, and he will bring suit if
he finds the law and the testimony will
justify. We are of the opinion that he will
find the accident was not from contribu-
tory negligence of the town or its officers,
that it was unavoidable, and that the
city cannot be held for it.
