Deafness Cannot be Cured

by local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of tho car.
There is only one way to cure deafness,
and that is by constitutional remedies.
Deafness is caused by an innamed con-
dition of tho mucous lining of tho eusta-
chian tube. When this tube gets innamod
you have rumbling sound or imperfect
hearing, and when it is entirely closed
deafness is tho result, and unless tho
inflammation can bo takon out and this
tube restored to it's normal condition,
hearing will be destroyed forever. Nino
cases out of ton arc caused by catarrh,
which is nothing but an inhamed condi-
tion of the mucous surfaces.
We will give ono hundred dollars for
any case of deafness (caused by catarrh)
that cannot ho cured by Halls Catarrh

Prevention OF Colds.

-
The Irishman's care for colds,
"don't take them," has q great
amount of sense in it after all, and
if the people would only use their
wits a little more they would prevent
many a hard cold in tho head, throat
or lungs.
Colds in the heads springs from
such trifles as a slight draught about
the neck or ears, anG it takes but
little forethought to keep out of o
direct draught.
Chills frequently occur after pro-
fuse perspiration, but if one removes
the wet garments, rub themselves
down briskly and dons fresh dry un-
der-clothing as soon as possible the
danger is avertcd. When coming
in from exposure to storm one
should wipe the cars, face and neck
free from snow or sleet, then rub
them briskly until the face and neck
glow personally l have driven
many head and throat cold away
by this massage at the right moment,
the massage drawing the blood back
to tho chilled surface.
Doctci.. now tell us it is harmful
to keep back the sneeze, as it is often
the only mode OF ejecting tho much
dreaded microbe. Wo should sneezo
and throw up the grippe or influenza

Voting the feet in cold weather
is frequent cause for colds and
sore throats, especially if one is una
bic to dry them soon after. One is
moro susceptible to colds when tho
digestion is sluggish; another reason,
if more be needed, why the bowels
should bo kept regular. Simple
irritation of the throat may be
allowed to increase until laryngitis
be developed. 1t may be mastered
by soothing gargles and teaches not

THE FAMILY VERY PRoAiINENT., 7
The Sharp family has been very
prominent for a number ofsyesrs and
Hiram Sharp has been regarded as a
good farmer and alaw abiding citi-
zen, he has accumulated some prop
erty and had a lot of friends who
are dumbfounded at the shocking
details of the tragedy.
On account of her injury and
nervous condition, Mrs. Sharp's
mother has not recovered her
strength sufficiently to tell the details
or to give a connected account of
the cause which led to the tragedy.
The coroner has been summoned,
and it will not be possible to get the
full particulars until he makes his
investigation. ....
Up to tho noon hour nothing has
been heard from Sharp, and the
chances are that he has reached a
railroad and got on somt outgoing
train before this. ..-... @.-:
If he is not captured by nightfall,
an effort will doubtless be made to
have reward offered for his arrest.
Hiram Sharp has two daughters,
who arc married, and a son, q sue
cessful farmer living in the imme-
date neighborhood in which the
crime was committed.
LATEsT.-Sharp has been arrested
and lodged in Jail at Decatur. No
one was burt in making the arrest.
a mob came near lynching the pris-
oner. Sharp claims that he did not
know what he was doing and that he
is crazy. The same old trick.

An Evening with American
Conposers.

The st. Cecilia Symphony, consist
ing of Is members gave social to a
few invited friends, who were lovers
of music in the spacious parlors of
Hon. II. T.. Reed, Thursday evening
last. The entire evenings entertain
ment was devoted to music by Ameri-
can composers, it was appropriate
that the announcement painted
upon large canvass as San Evening
with American Composers" should
show the American colors; red, white
and blue, and that flags and bunting
should tastefully decorate the ceiling
and the walls. Each member was per-
mitted to invite two persons as guests
OF the evening thus getting out an
array of,nlnsical critics, as good as are
found in the city. The several
numbers were each faultlessly given,
and were highly appreciated and
loudly applauded. The members were
all present and each appeared in two
Or more numbers. At the conclusion
of the program for the evening re-
freshments were served, after which
the audience dispersed having enjoyed
most delightful and enjoyable eve
ming. The st. Cecilia Symphony is
doing good work and it's improvement
cannot, with the diligent application
of its several members, fail to be rapid
and substantial.

Delay in Serving Notices of Contest
Leaves sAnti-GoebeIites In Doubt
as to Plans of Contestants.

Frankfort, KY, Dec. 23.-The delay
on the part of Goebel and Beckham
in serving notices of contest against
Gov. Taylor and Lieut.. Gov. Marshall
leaves anti-Goebel elements in doubt
as to the purpose of the contestants.
The time for taking dispositions prior
to the meeting of the legislature ex-
plred Thursday, only four witnesses
having given testimony regarding
election in the contested counties.
The contest committee, however, has
power to send for persons and papers
if it so desires. The anti-Goebel lead.
ers will have an informal conference
at Louisville during the holidays to
decide whether they will make a fight
to organize the two houses of the Leg
lslature. They claim to have enough
votes to organize the senate, but a
majority Of the leaders seem to Oh.
pose the fusion on organization, pre-
ferring not to show their strength till
the contests are voted on.
Frankfort, KY, Dec. 23.-An address
to the democracy of the state, indorsine
the contest instituted by Goebel and
other candidates of the defeated demo-
cratic ticket, and giving the reasons
therefor, has been issued. It is signed
by former Senator Blackburn, chair
man of the state campaign committees
Chairman Young, of the state centraI
and executive committees, and all of the
members of those committees.
The address claims that Justice to the
party demands the contest. It saws the
canvassing board had no power to go
behind the returns to determine mat
ters in contention or certificates would
not have been issued to the republic
ans. The use of tissue ballots in strone-s
ly republican counties is charged. An.
other ground of contest is the alleged
use of the militia for the purpose of in
timidating voters. Railroad influence
and the corrupt use of money are
charged.
