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 in famed condition of the mucus lining of the Eustachain Tube. When this tube is inflamed you have rumbling sound or imper- feet hearing, and when it is en- tirely closed, deafness is the re- suit, and unless the inflammation can be taken out and this tube restored to it's 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 mucous surfaces.
 We will give One Hundred Dollars for any case of Deafness (caused by catarrh) that cannot be cured by Halls Catarrh Cure. Send for circulars, free.

 "Come Let Us Plant The Apple Tree" was then read from Bryant by Miss Burnice Foreman, and "Only Remembered" was ren- dered by the choir.
 E. s. Foreman had been as- signed the "Growth of the Apple. . Mr. Foreman took the apple up from the birth of creation and dis cussed the science, beauty and pleasure of it's production.
 At this juncture the audience was delightfully."- entertained with a recitation by Miss Kate Fielder.
 The subject of ''Bitter Rot in Apples" was then taken up by J. H. Puckett, who made a very interesting talk. He showed the origin of this disease, but said he had failed as had all others to discover the cause or sure rem edy for it, but the best thing he knew to lessen it's depredations WAS care on the part of the or chardists not to allow affected apples to lay under the trees. l Every fruit grower should have heard his talk.
 The next topic brought up was "Seedling Apples" which was discussed by Frank Jagerman, which was also very instructive. He exhibited some specimens of seedlings of excellent quality being of fine flavor, good size and splendid keepers. He said he had kept them as long as June and could have kept them longer had he had more of them. MT. Standlee also exhibited a few seedlings of good size, which were pronounced as good as the best of any variety by every one. Mr. James says Arkansas is moi only the home of the Big Rec Apple but is also the home of the finest seedling apples in the world.
 J. B. Reeves gave a very good talk on Raising Apples from the Craft" but did not recommend that plan. He thinks 1t better tC buy trees only under exceptional circumstances.
 B. B. Eslinger spok on "Nortt Arkansas as Fruit Country It did not take him long to prove what everybody believes, that North Arkansas is the finest frui, country in the world.

R. s. Morris, cashier of the Bank of Siloam, owns a 200 acre fruit farm one mile south of town, and has 100 acres in bearing orchard, all Ben Davis apple trees. He also has 40 acres of peach orchard with apple trees planted between each row of peach trees. From his 100 acre orchard MT. Morris sold 900 bar rels of apples at S1.80 and $40 per barrel. He also sold three car loads at S3.75 per barrel, and has 1,70O barrels in cold storage in Siloam Spring, 900 barrels in Kansas City and 325 barrels of first grade apples in storage in Minneapolis, Minnesota.

Morris expects to get as much out of his fruit crop this year as he asked for his entire farm one year ago.

BUTT FOR STATE SENATOR.
A Citizen of Green Forest Again
 Seeks Political Preferment.

l est this week announces through the press his candidacy for the office of state senator from the 24th senatorial district which comprises Carroll and Madison counties, subject, ofcourse, to the will of the democratic primaries of the two counties which will be held March 29 next.
 As a matter of home pride and desire to help the deserving, THE TRIBUNE wishes to say for Mr. Butt that in our opinion no bet ter material for this office can be found in the district. He is young man of energy, courage and determination, and when convinced that he is right upon a matter is uncompromising in his advocacy of it, as has been shown by his past record. In every line of work he has turned his at tention, he has made a mark ed success. As a boy in school he worked his way up from the bottom, paying his board and tuition by work, and graduating with the highest honors. As a teacher, he made one of the best in this part of the state, being one of the limited numbers who have been able to secure state license.
 Since 1896 he has been engag- ed in the practice of law at Green Forest where his extensive ac- quaintance and the confidence reposed in him by those who know him have built him up a successful and lucrative prac- tice.
 Raised on farm and making his way by his own exertions, his experience and training in the lines of life to which the greater part of the people of this district belong, he is peculiarly fitted for the office to which he as- pires. In addition to this he will bring to the office, if elected, the technical experience so neces- sary to effective work in legis- lative body, having served as representative of Carroll county for two terms in the lower house in 1897 and 1899.
 As a representative MT. Butt distinguished himself by his con- servative conduct, and it is safe to say there is perhaps no man in the state today who is better known on account of his legisla- tive work than is Mr. Butt. In each of the sessions he served he ranked as one of the strongest men in the body. He is an elo- quent speaker of ready wit and forcible expressions. His speeches in 1897 on the Morrill, ton repeal bill and in 1899 on the mastering out of the second Ar kansas regiment are said to be among the most brilliant ever ut tered in the house of representa- tives. They were extensively copied in the press of our own and several other states.
 In the house of '99 lie achieved some distinction by leading the opposition to the stamp resolu- ton which has passed nearly every session, giving each rep resentative and senator 20 cents day in stamps, and through his effort the measure, for the first time in many years, was defeat ed. In the same session, during the absence of Speaker Van- deventer, MT. Butt was elected by the house as it's temporary speak CT, and is said to have been one of the ablest presiding officers in the body.
 In each session he served, Mr. Butt was the author of a number of measures that were enacted ! into laws. the one that makes him
