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 constitu-
tional remedies. Deafness is caused by an
int1amed condition of the mucous lining of the
Eustaehian Tube. When this tube is infamed
you have rumbling sound or imperfect hear
ing, and when it ls 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 destroyed forever;
nine cases out of ten are caused by catarrh
which is nothing but an infamcd condition of
the mucous surfaces
We will give One Hundred Dollars for any ca Sc

The Sunday Free Press had the
following to say on the senatorial
situations:
The first week of the senatorial con-
test is closed. Gov. La Toilette is
assured of the nomination whether
the contest be decided in the Re-
publican caucus to be held Monday
night or in the joint meeting of the
two houses of the legislature to be
held Tuesday.
The show Of strength for the
governor i'm the conference of Re-
publican members of the assembly
held Thursday night is only the
reflection Of what has been the real
sentiment since the first day the
senatorial campaign opened. There
have been plenty of men ready to
support the other candidates Loyalty
and the fact that followers of both
congressman Esch and Cooper were
present at the conference is no proof
of their disloyalty to these candidates.
Most of the members pledged to other
candidates recognize the general
demand of their constituents and of
good public policy for the election of
Gov. La Toilette to the senate and
that it was impossible to unite
Republican sentiment on any other
candidate. They reason that by all
presidents and rules of politics the
governor is entitled to the nomina-
tion and that public policy and good
government demand his election.
The fight in this state against the
entertainments of the railroads and
large corporations was made by Gov.
La Toilette. The opposition of the
corporations has been such that a
man of less experience and less
determination would have failed.
The victory at the polls was in a
large sense personal victory for the
governor. These are the political
reasons advanced by his friends for
his election at this time.

Italian band will appear in this city at the Spokane the
alter the evenings of Saturday and Sunday March Is
and 49, and at the Saturday matinee consists of series
of almost unprecedented musical successes which have
placed him the highest pinnacle of musical eminence
Creatore is not Coming bandmaster; he has "come

his company of thoroughly trained musicians will attempt
to dispute the fact that his mastery them is
pete revelation in the art of conducting At time does
he lose control of his men, and the astonishing changes
variations and surprises which he contrves to make them
produce according to his conception of the particular
number being played has compelled at least celebrated
critic to excaim: "Creaore's band becomes orchestra
or band as he wills AS his name suggests, Creatore
is indeed creator-the inventor of musical phrase
from him.
His interpretations of musical original, de-
ightfu satisfying His renditons of the works of any
composer which appeal to his knowledge and skill take
la meaning when he conducts them, and the econ
course of sweet sounds which appear to fall from his
magic wand are most refreshing.
Creaore's fame and remarkably impressive and de-
lgtful personality, his many triumphs with his cele
braed band and the universally high reputation which
he bears all this broad land sufficient to necess
tate detailed mention of them in this connection 1t is
enough say, and say earnestly and emphatcay that
who hears him goes away disappointed but,
the contrary is after enthusiastic admrer of this
masterful musician and director Such will be the
with all who attend Creatores at the Spokane
