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 condi-
ton of the mucous lining of the Eustach-
ian tube. When this tube is inflamed
you have rumbling sound or imperfect
hearing, and when it is entirely closed,
deafness is the result, and unless the in
fammation 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 condi-
ton of the mucous serfaces.
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.

Ascertained facts seem to show us
that by the lower forms of animal life
very little pain, as we understand the
word. can be felt at all. HOLSTERS, for
instance. will voluntarily deprive them
selves Of their claws If suddenly alarm
ed by some such sound as that caused
by the firing Of a heavy gun above
them. A crab, seized while feeding by
a greater and stronger, will continue
its meal while being itself devoured.
A fish. torn and mangled by the hook.
will return In moment or two to the
bait, with its appetite unimpaired.
A blindworm or a sand lizard, II I'M
expectedly seized. will snap its body in
twain and glide away, none the worse
for the mutilation, to reproduce the
severed substance. 1t is hard, indeed.
in cases such as these to insist that
pain, I'm our sense of the term, can be
in any real degree endured.

The Wastes of the Body.

Every seven days the blood muscles
and bones of a man of average size lose
two pounds of wornout tissue. This
waste cannot be replenished and the
health and strength kept up without
perfect digestion. When the stomach
and digestive organs fail to perform their
functions the strength lets down, health
gives way, and disease sets up, Kodol
Dyspepsia Cure enables the stomach and
digestive organs to digest and assimilate
all of the wholesome food that may be
eaten into the kind of blood that rebuilds
the tissues and protects the health and
strength of the mind and body. Kodol
cures Indigestion, dyspepsia and al
stomach troubles. 1t is an ideal spring
tonic. Sold by f. b. Longwell. n

escape such consequences. A dose of
good digestant like Kodol will relive you
at once. Your stomach is simply toe
weak to digest what you eat. That's all
indigestion is. Kodol digests the food
without the stomach's aid. Thus the
stomach rests while the body is strength

Prohibition Ticket.

A convention to fill out the nomination
of candidates for the Prohibition party
for Cecil county was called in response to
a request from State headquarters, at
Rising Sun on Wednesday, Sept. 80. Geo.
Balderston was appointed chairman Of
the meeting and Edwin Haines secretary.
Amos R Brown was elected County
Chairman.
The State platform as adopted at the
convention held at Hagerstown on Sept.
3rd, was endorsed, as follows:
The Maryland State Prohibition convention
assembled in Hagerstown on September 3rd, 1908,
recognizing God as the source of all government,
and believing that all human enactments should
conform to the National Prohibition party,
and declare anew:
The question is again before the people of Mary
land as to what they propose to do about the
egalized liquor traffic, the admitted source of the
greater portion of the crime, vice, misery. and
poverty in our beloved land. We denounce the
whole traffic perpetual hotbed of legalized
niquity, a menace to every Maryland child, an
insult to every Maryland mother and daughter,
and crime against the thousands yet unborn.
To take care of the products of the saloon taxes
are imposed upon the industrious and law abid-
ing. 1t makes Maryland soil dangerous for every
good thing. 1t balks the Church. 1t destroys the
work of the school and home.
Never in their history have either the Repub-
lican or Democratic parties of Maryland taken
any adequate steps toward relieving the people of
the State from this intoerabe burden of crime
and taxation. They will not even enforce the
license laws of their own making There is not Il
licensed saloon in Maryland and never has been,
that does not operate and has not always oper-
ated under laws enacted for their continuance
and protection by the Republican and Democratic
parties.
We demand the complete humiliation of the
entire liquor traiiice for beverage purposes on
exactly the same grounds that we protect our cit
liens from vendors of decayed meat, dynamite
and poisonous drugs.
| We call upon all citizens, regardless of former
political utilization, to join with us to this end,
throw off forever the shackles of the Iarty boss
and vote a ticket that does not stand for the
continuance OF this licensed infamy.

placed i'll nomination:

Several lines of railroad, embracing
system of 600 miles, are being considered
by the United States government for the
development of the Philippine islands. 1t
is the purpose to have the roads built and
operated by the government, and the
project meets with universal favor, every
one recognizing its feasibility and the
advantage it would be to our new posses
sions for the roads to be under govern
ment control. But how different would
the announcement be received that the
government was to enter upon similar
enterprise in the United States. Such a
cry as would go up from the great rail-
road corporations of the country, which
have grown so rich and powerful under
the fostering care of the government as to
virtually dictate and control almost every
piece of legislation bearing on their in
terests, would doubtless create panic in
financial centers, and the measure be
held up by the railroad lobby, backed by
almost unlimited wealth, before it could
reach more than preliminary hearing
What the railroads and similar large
corporations want in the way of conces-
sions by Congress and the Legislatures,
they ask for and get. WHAT the. people
want they ask for also, but get-left.
