not reach the diseased portion of
the ear. There is only one way to
cure deafness, and that is by con.
stitutional remedies. Deafness is
caused by an infamed condition
of the mucous lining of the
Eustachian Tube. When this tube
is inflamed you have a rumbling
sound or imperfect hearing, and
when it is entirely closed, deaf
ness is the result, and unless the
inflammation can be taken out and
this tube restored to it's normal
condition, hearing will be de-
stroyed forever; nine cases out Of
ten are caused by Catarrh, which
is nothing but an inflamed condi.
ton of the mucous surfaces.

Nebraska II, Missouri O.
From the Independent.

From the independent.
Sometimes victory is so limited as
to amount to defeat and often a
qualified defeat seems like a victory.
These conditions certainly existed
between Missouri and Nebraska last
Saturday. Reports from Lincoln
Friday said: Nebraska is working
just as hard as if they had a hard
game to play Saturday" The Ne
braska team came to st. Joe expect
ing u light practice game and a big
score, and fell into one of the
hardest games ever played and by
the closest call managed to make
IL points. Missouri went to the
game under the prediction that Ne
braska would more than duplicate
the Indian score of last Saturday.
The most enthusiastic MissOurian,
considering the crippled condition of
the team, could hope for nothing
better than that the score would be
kept down to a reasonable point. On
account of these conditions the first
score of IL to 0 sent the Nebraskans
home with long faces and put Mis-
souri, stuck up close to where it was
early in the season. 1t was a victory
for Nebraska so far short of what
they expected that Nebraska yells
were not in evidence after the game.
Missouri on the other hand, had done
all and more than had been expected
and the Missouri rooters raised the
quiet old town for n night with as
lusty yells as were ever heard from
victors. The Tigers had played a
great game and though they had lost
Missourians have the sporting spirit
that enables them to enjoy a hard
game won or lost. The rooters
showed the pride they feel in the old
gold and black and that they are
with the team with hearty cheers
when they play as they did last Sat
urday even though the final score be
against them.
