$4,000 a side the victor to take all the
spoils. Harris is willing to bet a lot of
money that Terry can put Corbett to
sleep inside Of twenty rounds.

Hartford late Thursday night and early
this morning were much down in the
mouth over McGoverns unexpected re-
yersal Very few wished to discuss the
little Brooklynites defeat. At most NJ
the hotels where the followers NJ tho

deafness. But. by far the most common
cause Of loss of hearing is catarrh of the
head and throat
y prominent specialist on ear troubles
gives as his opinion that nine out OF ten
cases Of deafness ara traced to throat trou-
bic; this is probably Oyerstated but It
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 its way into the Eustachian
tube. and by elogging it up very soon af-
fects 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, bur any one
at all observant must have noticed how
q hard cold in the mead will affect the
hearing. and that catarrh. if long neglect
ed. viii certainly impair the sense of hear
ing and ultimately cause deafness
If the nose and throat are kept clear and
free from the unhealthy secretiOns OF
cItarrh. the hearing VIII az once greatly
improve and anyone suffering from deaf
ness and caiarrh can satisfy themselves
on this point by using @ 30 cent box OF
Stulrt's Catarrh Tablets. a new catarrh
cure. which in the past year has won the
ars as well as physicians, because il is in
form to use, contains no CO.

says that his greatest admirer is his
brother Jimmie. who is fourteen years
old. While James is proud of mis- pugilis-

higher aspirations

BY the time he reaches hcme, his
father. John H. Rothwell, will have in
his possession handsome country place
on the outskirts of Denver. Corbett has
sent word to buy the place. He told a
reporter that he will live in rustic sim

place has hives of bees. a fine orchard,
a hennery and commOdious stables. Cor
bett is quite a chicken fancigr, and he
expects TO raise some prize fowls.
