Deafness Cannot he 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 con-
dition of the mucous lining of the Eus
tachian Tube. When this tube gets in
famed you have rumbling sound or
imperfect hearing, and when it is en-
tirely closed deafness is the result, and
unless the inflammation can be taken out
and this tube restored to its normal con-
dition, hearing will be destroyed forever,
nine cases out Of ten are caused by ca
tarrh, which is nothing but an inhamed
condition of tie mucous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars for
any case of deafness Caused by catarrh)
that cannot be cured by Halls Catarrh

Thomas Young lies near deaths door
and Archie ST. Louis is in a critical
condition as the result of the eXplO-
sion Of ten pounds of dynamite at the
Port Edwards paper mill. three miles
south of this city. A huge ice dam
had been gathering in front of the
large dam crossing the river at this
point, and it was determined to blow
it up with dynamite.
The men had charge of the dyna-
mite, and while thawing it the eXplO-
sion occurred. Huge ice jams have de
veloped at various points of the riv-
er in this vicinity and if some of them
do not give way in the course of a few
hours the water will be backed up suf
fciently to do considerable damage.

Marvellous Escape from
Death
PAiNE'S CELERY
COMPOUND
Does a Wondrous Work for a Lady
Who Was Almost Crazed with
Pain and Suffering.

1t is well known that terrible rheumatism,
sciatica, and neuralgia cause more helpless
ness, acute suffering, and agony, than any of
the other diseases that afflict humanity. The
great medicinal virtues of Paine's Celery Com
pound make it the only trustworthy specific
for the cure of all forms of rheumatism and
neuralgia. Thousands of strong testimonial
letters from the most prominent people of the
land, prove that Paine's Celery Compound
has banished these terribly fatal troubles when
all other treatment has failed. Mrs. Mar
garet Bethel, of Brainerd, Mimi, after thirty
years of agonizing tortures had desire to end
her life, if it was the will of Heaven; she al
most prayed for the time to lay it down.
Heaven-directed, she made use of Paine's
Celery Compound, and is enjoying true life
once more. She says:-
"For thirty years l have been a great suf-
ferer from neuralgia in the head, and also
with rheumatism in the whole body. began
taking Paine's Celery Compound and soon
found was much better. Before taking the
Compound, my life was such burden that I
almost prayed to lay it down. l was bedfast
every two weeks with horrible pain in the
head, back, and neck, until I was almost
crazed. l am able to do harder work and
more of it today than for twenty-five years. I
am really enjoying life again, thanks to
Paine's Celery Compound. l am satisfied
that my life has been prolonged many years
by its use

a Wonderful Mr. City.

Many stories have been written about
mirageS and delusions. but none has
been more interesting and curious than
that of the Silent City mirage which
makes its appearance near the Pacific
glacier in Alaska. The discovery of this
wonderful mirage was made by the In
dams, who would tell Of the city which
was built in the clouds. The mirage
can be seen in the early part of July
from to 6 p. N. 1t rises from the side
Of the Pacific glacier. 1t first appears
like a heavy mist and soon becomes
clearer, and one can distinctly see the
specter city. we'll defined streets and
trees, tall spires and huge and odd shap-
ed buildings which appear to be an
cient mosques or cathedrals. 1t is 9 city
which would seem to contain at least
$4,000 or 10000 inhabitants.
AS yet no one has been able to iden-
tify it, although several have claimed
to recognize the place. There is no city
like it in Alaska, nor in any country
about it for thousands of miles Some
claim it is a city in Russia, others say
it is a city in England, but none can
tell where and what it is. The mirage
was given the name of Silent City, as it
appears to one like a dead city. There
is nothing that would indicate that it
is inhabited.
