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 infamed condition of the
mucous dining of the Eustachian Tube.
When this tube is inflamed you have a
rumbling sound or imperfect bearing and
when it is entirely closed, Deafness is the
result, and unless the Inflammation can be
taken out and this tube restored to its nor
NAL condition, hearing will be destroyed
forever; nine cases out Of ten are caused by
Ca1arrh. which is nothing but inf1amed
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 Catarrh Cure.

Man Missing.

E. w. Lippitt is presumably in the
New Hampshire woods hunting for deer.
Mr.. Lippitt went to South Albany, N. H.,
about three weeks ago and was intend
ing to stay only three or four days. He
wrote home November 81. and said that
be should be home the following day.
From that time nothing has been heard
from him. Members of his family have
become alarmed at his disappearance
and if he does not put in an appearance
very soon a searching party will start
from Conway, N. 81. Mr.. Lippitt is So
years old and has been great hunter
and dead shot since his youth. His
friends in Hardwick have two different
theories. Que is that he has met with
a fatal accident in the woods, and the
other is that he was determined to get
deer and has gone into the mountains to
find game. Mr.. Lippitt is blacksmith,
and for the past three years has been en-
ployed by the Woodbury. Granite Co.

Park. Miss Edwards was a sister of
Mrs. Lysander Cobb, of this place, and
had large number OF friends here.
Later news reports the return of E.
w. Lippit, and he is now at work. He
had been on Moat mountain, about 10
miles from North Conway, N. H., in an
old logging camp. He was surprised to
hear that his absence had caused any
alarm. He brings pair of deer's forefeet
back with him as a souvenir of his trip.
