DEAFNESS CANNOT BE CURED.

by local applications, as they can
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 Eustach-
ian Tube. When this tube gets
infiamed you have a rumbling
sound or imperfect hearing, and
when it is entirely closed deafness
is the result, and unless the infiam-
nation can be taken out and this
tube restored to it's normal condi-
ton, hearing will be destroyed for
ever; nine cases out of ten are
caused by catarrh, which is nothing
but an infamed condition of the
mucous surfaces.
We will give One hundred Dol
lars for any case of Deafness
(caused by catarrh) that cannot be
cured by Halls Catarrh Cure.

year he is expected to make an equally
handsome gift.

firm In the various big enterprises he
has put through, are estimated at
$42,000,000. This is Independent of

VICTORY FOR AMERICAN POLICY
Cabinet and President Much Pleased
at Outcome of Negotiations.

Cabinet and President Much Pleased
at Outcome of Negotiations.
Washington, Dec. 27. President
Roosevelt is justified in feeling that in
the Venezuelan controversy he has
won a distinct victory for the Amer
lean policy.
President Roosevelt all along has
urged the submission Of the dispute
to The Hague tribunal. The powers
recognized that the question was one
for American disposal, and asked the
president to be the arbitrator. It is
said that all the correspondence rec
ognizes this principle. It was the
presidents frmness that brought all
the points to arbitration on American
lines. In commenting upon this sat-
1sfactory condition of affairs, a mem
Der OF the cabinet said that the presi-
dent might well repeat what he said
I'M his message to congress-:
There is not a cloud on the horizon
at present. There seems not the
slightest chance Of trouble with fot-
elgn power.
In recognizing that this question
must be settled according to American
ideas, the great European powers have
given new force to the Monroe doc
trlne. That doctrine is now regarded
as stronger than ever and as com
pletely recognized by the powers of
Europe. 1t is also recognized in Ven
ezuela, where, according to trust
worthy reports, people are seeking
closer relations with the United
States-relations similar to those OF
Cuba: s-..
