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 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 rumbllng
sound or imperfect hearing, and when
II is entirely closed, deafness is the
result, and unless the Inflammation
can be taken out and this tube re-
stored to its normal condition, hear
ing will be destroyed forever; nine
cases out Of ten are caused by ca
tarrh. which Is nothing but an infiam-
ed condition of the mucous surfaces
We will give one hundred dollars
for any case of deafness (caused by
catarrh) that can not be cured by
Hall's Catarrh Cure. Send for circu-
lars, free. f. J. CHENEY & CO,

FILES PAPERS IN
 THE LOWE CASE
ATTORNEY GENERAL VERY ELAB- CRATE IN CHARGES, SHOWING THAT INcoMPETENcY IS FROM PHYSICAL TROUBLE.

Montgomery, June 21.-(SpeciaD-Att ney General Brown today filed the in formation in the impeachment proceed ings against Solicitor Lowe of the Eighth circuit. The charge of wilful neglect of duty Is based on the reports of the grand juries of Morgan and Limestone Coun- ties, that from Cullman having failed to use the statutory word "wilfur'. The charges are that he has not attended his court in those counties since January and February, 1899. The important and complicated feature of the case Is the charge of 'incompetency," made also by the Cullman jury.
 Presumably the defense will be that the code meaning of the word refers to pro- fessional incompetency, and not physical disease. Hence the Attorney General Is very elaborate in his specifications under this head. He reiterates with great par ticularity the various way in which the solicitor Is and has been incompetent to fill the duties of the office, suffering from both physical and mental disability. The specifications also allege that the all ment has affected his power of speech in such a way as to render him unable to perform the functions of the office. It Is not expected that the court will order special term, and hence the case will go over till late fall.

 Colds are considered one of the neces- sary ills of life. One Is liable to catch cold both summer and winter. Very often summer colds prove fatal. They are always dangerous.
 A cold is the beginning of catarrh. It may cause catarrh of any of the internal organs-the head throat, lungs and stom- ach, or pelvic organs. A remedy that will cure cold then would cure all these direct effects of colds. Peruna is such remedy. We have letters from all over the United States attesting to this fact.
