Deafness Cannot be Cured

by local applications, as they cannot reach the diseased portion of the ear. ', There IS on- ly one way to cure deafness and that is by constitutional remedies. Deafness is caused by an iniamed condition of the mucous lin. ing of the Eustachiaa Tube. When this tube Is nfiamed you have rumbling sound or inn perfect hearing. and when II is entirely closed, Deafnness is the result, and unless the inflammation be taken out and this tube restored to it's normal condition, hearing will be destroyed forever Nine cases out of ten are caused bycetarrh, which is nothing but an infiamed condition of the mucous sur faces.

that the Venezuela government had
maintained good relations with foreign

The government had acceded to the
desires of the respective representa-

justice, equity and the dignity and
honor of the nation permitted On the
other hand Venezuela had duly paid
the allies the amounts peremptorily
demanded by them and had then paid
them 80 per cent of the customs du-
ties collected at LaGutra and Puerto
Cabello. When the claims of the al
lies had been paid the 80 per cent of
the customs duties of LaGura and
Puerto -Cabello would be devoted to
the payment of the claims of the other
powers, which had presented pacifical-

powers, previously referred to, the gov

All censorship is now removed from

appalled, at the horrible stories of the
slaughter on board the Russian ships
The Admiralty has not yet been able
to estimate even approximately from
the foreign advices the loss of men
but as the ships were over rather
than under manned. the total will bel
greater than the ordinary complement
of the vessels would indicate anGl
probably will exceed 10000, if only
about 1000 were saved.
