Mr.. Hill felt complimented by the at

discussing the address of President HILL

is varied, much of it. uncertain, but no

opinion on the merger as tending too
much toward monopoly. President Hill
is voted great man, his address pro-
nounced a great contribution to transpor-

the fact that such an important address
was delivered here. .e...'. .,--. -

of the latter point But back of this,

hundreds of North Dakota farmers, there

against trusts. This they are sure is CEN

toward monopoly. Many are not afraid
of this power in the hands of James J..

Deafness Cannot be Cured

BIZ local applications as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
There is only one way to cure deaf
ness. and that is by constitutional rem
edies. Deafness is caused by an in
famed condition of the mucous lining
of the Eustachian Tube. When this
tube is inflamed you have a rUmbling
sound or imperfect hearing, and when
il is entirely closed, Deafness is the
result. and unless the inflammd ton 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 infiamed 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
