Why Not See Mexico?

Forty-eight hours travel will take
you from the cold clustering northern
winter to a land of sunshine and flow
ers. What Egypt and India are to the
old world, Mexico is to the new. "A
land of white sunshine, redolent with
flowers; a land Of gay costumes,
crumbling churches, and old converts;
a land of kindly greetings, Of extreme
courtesy, of open, broad hospitality.
1t was more than enough to revel In
an italian sun. lighting up a senli-trop-
ical land; to look up to white-capped
peaks, towering into blue; to look
down upon wind-swept plains, encir-
cled by ragged chains Of mountains:
and to realize that today, in its varied
scenery, costumes, architecture, street
life, canals crowded with flower laden
boats, market plaxas thronged with
gaily dressed natives, faded church in.

Deafness Cannot be Cured

by local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
There is only one way to cure deaf
ness, and that is by constitutional rem
edies. Deafness Is caused by an in
AIMED condition of the mucous lining OF
the Eustachian Tube. When this tube
is inlamed 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 infamed condition of the
mucous surfaces.
We will give one hundred dollars for
any Ease of deafness (caused by
catarrh) that cannot be cured by

FAREWELL TO
JOHNS HOPKINS
REMARKABLE ADDRESS BY DR..
WILLIAM osSLER UPON
HIS RETIREMENT.
Men Of Forty, He Says, Are Useless,
When They Reach Sixty They
Are WorthIess-Make Nearly All
the Mistakes Politically and So.
ciaIly and Write Poems and Books.

Baltimore, Md, Feb. 24.-Dr. Will
liam Ossler made a farewell address
to Johns Hopkins university, as he is
about to become the head of the medi'
cal school of Oxford university. His
farewell address was a remarkable
one, this being the pith: MY idea as
to the comparative uselessness of men
above forty years of age may seem
shocking, yet the worlds history bears
out the statement. The effective, NOV
ing, vitalizing work of the world is
done between the ages of 25 n 40.
These evils may be traced to the sex
uagenarians: Nearly all the mistakes
politically and socially, all the worst
poems, most of the bad pictures, a ma
jority Of the bad novels and not a few
of the bad sermons and speeches. Men
OF forty are useless. and when they are
sixty they are worthless.

the Cheyenne Tribune.
Burney. the negro, has been posi-.

seen on the train from Laramie to
Cheyenne the night of the 18th OF
January. He Gains to have beaten
his way into Laramie at s o'clock
the night of the murder and is known
to have left that city with a large

to Greeley and the officers hope to
get the links in the chain Of evidence

The trial of the negro will likely be

propose to have everything as ear
ready as possible against that date, so
that they can make their case so
strong that the judge and jury will
have no difficulty in reaching a con
viction.
"'Dicey" has already peer fatty and
positively contradicted as to the time
of his arrival at Laramie the night of
the murder. but he persists in stick

Marshal Sigman. who was placed on
the witness stand at the preliminary

claims to have arrived from the west

Some years ago while at work, I fell
over a truck and severely injured both
of my shins. My blood became poisoned
as a result, and the doctor told me :!
would nave running sores for life, and
that if they we're healed up the result
would be fatal. Under this discouraging
report 1 left off their treatment and re-
sorted to the use of S. S. S. Its effects
were prompt and gratifying. 1t took
only a short while for the medicine to en-
tirely cure up the sores, and l am not
dead as the doctors intimated, nor have
the sores ever broke out again. Some IA
years have elapsed since what l have de
cribed occurred. Having been so signally
benefited by its use l can heartily recon-
mend it as the II great blood purifier.
