Deafness Cannot Be Cured

by local applications. as they cnnot
reach the diseased portion Of the year.
There is only n way to cure deafness
and that is by constitute lal remsdie7.
Deafness is caused by an inflamed
condition Of the mucous lining OF the
Eustachian Tube. When the tube is
inflamed you have a rumbling sound
or imperfect hearing, and when it Is
entirely closed, deafness is the result.
and unless the Inflammation can be
taken out and this tube restored to its
normal condition, hearing will be de-
stroyed forever; nine cases out OF ten
are caused by catarrh. which is moth
ing but an inflamed condition Of the
mucous surfaces.

Catarrh) that cahnot be cured b.

PETRIFACTIONS


In the days gone by Nevada was

sents to the eye IN most sections Of
the state. There ara evidences Of
rivers and fresh water lakes. whose
banks were bordered by great groves oil
trees. the trunks OF which were several
feet In circumference.
Along the old channels and dry beds
Of these bodies OF water are to be
found fossllized vegetation. petrifica-
tons and ony xized specimens Of long
ago plant life.
The most valuable discovery that
has been made in recent years Is on
the lands of r. w. Cowles on Limbo
range. se~venty-five miles north of
Wadsworth. Here on Mr.. Cowles'
range has been found a great petrifled
forest. Some Of the trees, broken into
sections can be traced along the
ground for one hundred feet in length
and more. The petrified trunks OF
these trees are three and four feet In
thickness. They were evidently CO.
niferous trees. similar TO those now
growing in the high Sierra,
One interesting feature is the opal
ICED and onyxized specir.ens found
there. They are evidently petrified

jewel.
There Is now no water in the vic

no vegetation except .sagebrush and
