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 constitutional remedies.
Deafness is caused by an infamed con-
dition of the mucous lining of the Eus-
tachian Tube. When this tube is infam-
ed you have a rumbling sound or i1nper-
feet hearing, and when it is entirely clos
ed, 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 infamed condi
ton of the mucous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars for
any case of Deafness Caused by catarrh)
that cannot be cured by Halls Catarrh

Brownsville, Texas.
Dear Sirs: You know, diamonds
don't go by size. So with paint.
We make paint, one gallon Of
which goes as far as two of another
and last twice as long: that's four
to one.
You know it is true in diamonds;
they don't go by the gallon, do
they?
If you're going to paint your
house, you go first to your painter
and say: I'm going to paint; do
you want the job? and what'll it
cost"
If he happens to know. he'll say:
Depends on the paint. 1 can do
it sfor somewhere about 500 or
$500, whichever you like; 500
will make a good job; $500 a poor
one"
And you, if you happen to have
your wits, will say: I'll take the
good one, when Il you do it?'
Painters ought, all, to know
about paint; and jewelers. ought to
be able to get a good job. We do
what we can to help both.
One gallon Devoe is better than
two of average paint, goes as far
that is, your house will take about
20 gallons Devoe and 40 of average
paint-and Devoe will wear a long
time; the life of average paint is
very uncertain, it may be a year,
it may be FIVE.
Why is it that painters don't
know about paint? Do jewellers
know about diamonds? They know
more than they tell sometimes.
There are painters and painters; so
there are jewellers; SO there is
paint, and the least-gallons paint is
Devoe. Yours truly
F. W. DEvoE & Co.

TO MAKE THE HEART STRONG

The kind of exercise one should take
for his hearts sake is extremely i'm
portant. AS l have already said, ex-
ercise, to affect the heart sufficiently,
must be vigorous, though not too Wig
orous. Ordinary walking, while health
full falls short of this requirement.
That calisthenics and light exercises
generally also are deficient in this re-
spect is proved by the fact that, while
all humankind naturally indulge in
light exercises, yet heart ailments are
prevalent among them. Everyone that
is not beridden walks more or less and
l have read learned articles which try
to prove that walking is the only ex-
ercise man requires. But if a man
never runs he could not, if he would,
run fairly fast even a half mile. So
the argument is in effect that man
need not be able to run. 1 cannot agree
with this conclusion, for walking at a
moderate pace affects heart action only
Running, of all exercise for the heart,
is, 1 think, the best. OF course one
who has q weak heart cannot immed1-
ately run either fast or far; nor Is it
for the average individual to
learn to run great distances at high
speed. But everyone owes it to his
health to be able to run, without dis
tress, say half mile at fair pace.
Let him begin by jogging one-eighth
or one-quarter of mile, then half
a mile, which distance he may ulti-
mately run reasonably fast.-The Out
ing Magazine.
