SUBSCRIPTION: S1.OO Per Year
Deafness Cannot BE Cured

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 mu-
cous lining of the Eustachian Tube. When
this tube gets infamed you have 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 its normal con-
dition, hearing will be destroyed forever;
nine cases of of ten are caused by catarrh,
which is nothing but an infamed 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 Catarrh Cure.

There is wailing and gnashing OF
teeth in the Rogerios camp. for II was
confidently expected by Capt Hoban and
his cohorts that they would be able to
pull out the odd game. No such disaster
as a three-straight was looked for, and
the overwhelming defeat rather unnerved
the Rogers chieftain.
II was a great game for the Music
Halls. and their total OF 1H9 has been
beaten only once this season, the Fail
River team rolling up 1862.
The first game started of at fast clip,
but the Swiftites soon began to forge
ahead and easily won out by 55 pins. They
kept the fast gait up through the second
string. and again the Rogerios went
down. At this juncture Capt Hoban
called his team to one side and formed a
plan of battle. hoping that IT would save
them from an utter rout. But the Music
Halls were shooting too accurately and
the Rogers were forced back and driven
from the field in disorder.
Gen. George Gordon was up TO his eyes

bowled his usual star game. Both men
