SAYS PARKER WILL WIN.

The Brooklyn N. Y, Eagle,
has for years been one of the
best political prophets in the
country. 1t now predicts, both
in it's news columns and editor
tally, that Judge Parker will
be elected President, and ex-
presses its belief that New York
State will be carried for him.
This is significant for more rea-
sons than one. In the first
place,so thorough and syste-
matte have been the preliminary
canvasses of this newspaper i'm
1901, 1902 and 1903 that, with
the same methods of obtaining
data and making computation
employed, there is every posi-
bility that this year, as in the
years mentioned, it will be close
to the actual figures. In the
three years when it has ven
tured predictions its totals have
been within hundreds of the act
ual returns. In the second place
this paper now, for the first
time, reinforces its deductions
in the news columns with an
outspoken editorial utterance,
saying:
"Hitherto the Eagle has per-
mitted its postal-card canvass
To tell its own story practically
without comment. On this oc-
casion il has an opinion to ex-
press. Indeed it may be said
To have "A conviction. The logic
of the figures is that there is to
be change in the party auspices
under which affairs have been
administered at Washington.
That such change is impend-
ing the Eagle is now convinced
Ii is sincere i'm the belief that
Alton Il. Parker will on Tues
day of next week be elected
President of the United States.
The only anchor il has to cast
to the windward is the suggest
ion that its readers await the
completion of the canvass.
Should confederation come next
Sunday. about all the doubt
that fingers now will disap-
pear.

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 infiamed con
dition of the mucous lining of the
Eustachian Tube. When this tube is
infiamed you have a rumbling sound or
imperfect hearing. and when it is entire
~ closed. Deafness is the result. and un-
less the inflammation can be taken out
and this tube restored to its normal
condition, hearing will be dest Dyed
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 Hall s
