Deafness Cannot Be Cured

by local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion Of the car.
There is only one way to cure deafness,
and that is by constitutional remedies.
Deafness is caused by an inhamed con-
dition Of the mucous lining of the Eust-
achian Tube. When this tube is inflam-
ed you have rumbling sound OF inn
perfect hearing, and when it is entirely
closed Deafness is the result, and unless
the inflammation can be taken out and
this tube restoredto its normal condition
hearing will be destroyed forever; nine
cases out of ten are caused BY Catarrh,
wich is nothing but an inflamed condition
of the mucous surfaces.

For the first time in the his
tory of the worlda great war has
been settled with victory for
both sides as we'll as for the in
tervening power,-for Japan, for
Russia and for the President of
the United States. Japan has
shown to Russia that the latter
cannot meet the former on neith-
er land nor water with any show
of victory. Japan, with victory
in her hands, yields to the friend
ship of the United States govern
ment and astounds the world by
her magnanimity. japan has
done, we dare say, more than
Russia would have done under
the same circumstances. Japan
has won the highest esteem Of
the civilized world. Japan has
won the greatest victory known
to warning mankind, not SO much
in her fighting qualities as be-
hind the gun, but in yielding
more than her part to her en-
emy, the Russian government,
and this too in the face Of the
fact that arrogant and biggotted
Russia was to blame for the war

Mountain & Pacific Ry., was re-
ceived here with glad approval.
MIR. Dedman is one of the best lik-
ed railroad men who ever lived in

that had Mr.. Dedman been appoint
ed general manager of the E. Pm.

signed that no strike would have
ever been instituted among the shop
people here, and all of as who know
anything about that damnable

S. Y. jackson of RuidOsO, N.
NJ, was here Wednesday and
from him we learned the first
definite news Of the killing of
Bob Rusher at Captain, N. NJ,
by Ranger Avent on the night
of Aug. "a. Ranger Avent got
a Tip" that Rusher was going
to break into the general mer-
chandise store of Welch 4 Tits
worth of Captain on the night of
Aug. "a, and in company with
Mr.. Tittsworth the two secreted
themselves in the store to await
the burglar. In due time the
thief entered and wasordered to
hold up his hands bat instead of
obeying the officers command
he proceeded to empty q six
shooter, shooting at random in
the dark room and without touch
ing either the Ranger or Mr..
Tittsworth. The officer and Mr..
Tittsworth had the advantage Of
a sky light and opened fire on
the burglar and shot him several
times before he fell dead, and it
is thought that the fatal shot was
fred by Ranger Avent. Bob
Rusher was a bad character and
q desperate fellow. 1t is said
that he associated with some
lewd female characters at Capi
tan to one of whom he had told
his intentions of robbing this

Appendicitis New Theory

Washington, Aug. 21.-Another
theory has been advanced regard
ing the cause of appendicitis.
Doctor Pond of Liverpool pub
fishes in the London Lancet a new
theory with reference to the origin
Of appendicitis and other disturb
ances of the digestive organs. He
calls attention to the fact that such
ailments often can be attributed to
antimonial poisoning, and the source
Of the antimony taken by man is
said to be the rubber rings frequent
ly used to close all sorts of bottles.
In a series Of observations Doc
tor Pond claims to have found that
a frequently repeated Introduction
of antimony can become the source
of series of disturbances of the
nutritive and digestive system, and
especially through continued weak
ening of the muscles Of the stomach
and the intestines.
Scientists have taken up the mat
ter. of antimony in rubber rings
and il Doctor Ponds conclusions il
that regard are proved his deduct.
ions concerning the effect of anti
mony on the digestive system may
be supported by the reports Of 9th
er Investigators.
