WHAT
CAUSES
DEAFNESS
The Principal Cause is Cur
able but Generally Over
looked.

Many things may cause deafness, and
very often it is difficult to trace a cause
Some people inherit deafness. Acute
diseases like scarlet fever sometimes
cause deafness. But by far the most
common cause Of loss of hearing il
catarrh Of the head and throat.
A prominent specialist on ear troubles
gives as his opinion that nine out Of ten
cases of deafness lie traced to throat
trouble; this is probably owe sta ted
The daily journal. (Salem, Or.) 1899-1903, 1901-12-05

but II is certainly true that more than
half Of all cases of poor hearing were
caused by catarrh.
The catarrhal secretion in the nose
and throat finds It's way into the Eus-
tachian tube and by clogging 1t up
very soon affects the hearing, and the
hardening Of the secretion makes the
loss Of hearing permanent, unless the
catarrh which caused the trouble is
cured.
Those who are hard Of hearing may
think this a little far fetched, but any
one at all observant must have noticed
how hard cold IN the head will affect
the hearing and that cstarrh II long
neglected will certainly impair the
sense of hearing and ultimately cause
deafness.
II the nose and throat are kept clear
and free from the unhealthy secretions
Of catarrh, the hearing will at once
greatly improve and anyone suffering
from deafness and Catsrrh can satisfy
themselves on this point by using a
fifty cent box Of Stuart's Catarrh Tablets,
new catarrh cure, which in the past
year has won the approval Of thousands
Of catarrh sufferers, as we'll as physicians,
because il ia in convenient form to use,
contains no cocaine or opiate and lie az
safe and pleasant for children as for
their elders,
Stuarts Catarrh Tablets Ia a whole
some combination OF blood root, Guaiacol
EucalyPtol and similar antiseptics, anC
they cure catarrh and catarrhal deafness
by action upon the blood and mucoul
membrane OF the nose and throat.
As one physician aptly expresses il;
"You do not have to draw upon the
Imagination to discover whether you are
getting benefit from Stuart's Catarrh
tablets; improvement and relief are
apparent from the first tablet taken"
All druggists sell and recommend
them. They cost but fifty cents for full
sized package and any catarrh sufferer
who has wasted time and money on
sprays, salves and powders, will sp-
precate TO the full the merit of Stuart's
Catarrh Tablets. 1857

An Order Signed Relieving Major

vided that only ar officer of the regular

relates to Cuba. as TO permit the appoint
ment of a Cuban to the office thereby re-
lieving Major Eugene F. Ladd. the present

that the announcement that Major Laid
would be relieved had depressing effect
on the stock market there, and that the
stocks Of the telephone company, the Uni
TED Railways OF havana, and the ponds OF
the city fell several points
The order relieving Major Ladd is an
