DEAFNESS CANNOT BE CURED


by local applications as they cannot
reach 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 inflamed con-
dition of the mucous lining of the Eus-
tachian Tube. When this tube is in
famed you have a rumbling sound or
imperfect hearing, and when it is en-
tireIy closed, Deafness is the result, and
unless the Inflammation can be taken
out and this tube restored to its normal
condition, hearing will be destroyed
forever. Nine cases out of ten are caused
by Catarrh, which is nothing but an
inflamed condition of the mucuos sur
faces

A Smallpox Remedy.

The following statement of a CORE
spondent of the Stockton (Cal. Herald
has been going the rounds of the papers
An cxCalifornian says he has seen it
tested with entire success.
l herewith append recipe which has
been used to my knowledge. in hundreds
of cases. 1t will prevent or cure the
smallpox, though the pittings are filling.
When Jenner discovered the cow-pox in
England. the world of science hurled an
avalanche of fame upon his head but
when the most scientific school of med-
cine in the world-that of Paris-publish-
ed this recipe as panacea for small
pox, it passed unheeded. 1t is as unfail-
ing as fate, and conquers in every in
stance. 1t is harmless when taken by
we'll person 1t will also cure scarlet
fever Here is the recipe as | have used
it. and cured my children of the scarlet
fever; here it is as | have used it to
cure smallpox; when learned physicians.
said the patient must die, it cured: Sui
phate of zinc. one grain foxglove
(digitalis) one grain: half teaspoonful
of sugar; mix with two tablespoonsful
of water. When thoroughly mixed, add
four ounces OF water. Take spoonful
every hour Either diseases will disap-
pear in twelve hours. For child. small
err doses according to age. If counties
would compel their physicians to use this,
there would be no need of pesthouses. II
you value advice and experience, use
this for that terrible disease.

We invite your attention to the auction
sale of lots here advertised to come off
in the town of Fremont, n. c., on Thurs
day. January %, 1902, at o'clock in the
afternoon.
Fremont is located on the Wilmington
and Weldon Railroad. a section of the
great Atlantic Coast Line, in Wayne
County. and has a history that is one
of steady progress and a future that is
in every way most promising It's citi-
zens are thrifty, intelligent law abiding
and progressive and this is not merely
an assertion to boom the town, but is
a self-evident fact in its fine school, its
church edifices. its lovely homes, its i'm
pressive business houses, its substan
tial bank. and the general air of modern
progress that characterizes the entire
community. And when we come to look
for the reason of all this-asidc from the
intrinsic worth of its ctizens-we find
it in the far reaching fertile lands, high
.ly cultivated. by which the town is so
fortuitously favored These lands arc
inexhaustible in productiyeness and
adapted to all kinds of crops; cotton, to-
bacco, rice, corn, hay in fact, every
thing that mother earth yields to the
industry of the farmer.
Fremont is the market town for all
this section, it's business men and its
railroad advantages combining to afford
the paying of the very highest market
prices for all staple crops The conse-
quence is that Fremont is today abreast

St. Luke tells us of certain rich man

wouldst send him Uazarus) to my faith

he may testify unto them, lest they also
come into this place of torment
One of the lessons gathered from this
parable is that Dives was pretty ten
der hearted sort of fellow, hence his
solicitude for his brethren. The ten
dency in this day and time is for every
man to look out for himself and if fooled
wait to get even by watching somebody
