Operation is Successful.

James Peterson underwent q
successful operation for appen-
dicitis, at st. Anthony's hospital,
yesterday and is getting along
nicely since the use OF the sur.
geon's knife.
Peterson was brought from
Akeley to Bemidji a month ago,
suffering with appendicitis which
had been allowed to develop to
the serious stage. He was ex-
amined by a local physician and
placed in st. Anthony s hospital.
It was thought best not to per-
form an operation at that time
as it was feared that in the man s
weakened condition he would
not survive the shock. He was
dieted and brought to a condition
that would allow the performance
of the operation, which was ac-
complished yesterday with most
excellent results. Peterson is
doing very we'll since he was re-
lieved Of his appendix.

Deafness Cannot Be Cured

by local applications, as they
cannot reach the diseased por-
ton of the ear. There is only
one way to cure deafness, and
that is by constitutional rene
dies. Deafness is caused by an
infamed condition of the mucous
lining of the Eustachian tube.
When this tube is inaamed you
have rumbling sound or imper-
feet hearing, and when it is en-
tlrely closed, deafness is the re-
suit, and unless the inflammation
can be taken out and this tube re-
stored to its normal condition,
hearing will be destroyed for
ever; nine cases out of ten are
caused by catarrh, which is moth
ing but an infamed condition of
the mucous surfaces.

Dollars for any case of deafness

R J. Albrant, who is now at
Rochester, Mimi, writes his
brother, G. E. Albrant of Bemid-

physicians at the hospital there
relative to a stomach trouble with
which he has been afflicted for
some time, and that it will not be
necessary for him to- submit to
an operation; that the physicians
are giving him treatment that
will relieve him within a month.
He states that the operation per
formed on M. E. Carson was very
successful, and that the latter
will be able to leave the hospital

presidential bee buzzing in his hat. He
would have the people of this country
believe him to be a philanthropist. His
stock has been ascending down in

dangerous to other peoples presiden-

not ring true.
William Randolph Hearst owns a

In New York he has the American.
