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. Deaf
ness is caused by an intiamed condition
Of the mucous lining Of the Eustachian
Tube. When this tube is intlamed you
have rumbling sound or imperfect hear
ing, and when 1t is entirely closed, Deaf
ness is the result, and unless the intamma-
ton 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 infiamed condition OF the
mucous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars for
any case of Deafness (caused by Catarrh)
that cannot be cured by Halls Satarrh
Cure. Send for circulars free.

Vermont Enjoying BIG Boom.

The rate Of increase in manufactures in
Vermont as shown by the last census OF
manufacturers is 22.5 per cent. This Is a
record OF which the state may well be
proud and one which as soon as 1t be-
comes general knowledge is sure TO turn
the ever wakeful eye of capital TO this sec
ton OF New England to seek for the cause.
The state OF Vermont shows a greater
percentage of increase than any other one
Of the New England States thus far re-
ported, among which are New Hampshire,
Connecticut and Rhode Island. The rate
OF increase is in excess Of that shown by
the city of Boston, but the state OF Massa-
chusetts has not yet been reported. Re
ports are in from 81 States and but few
equal the record OF Vermont.
The census shows marble and stone
work as the heaviest products, the next IN
order being lumber and wooden goods.
Dairy products take the fifth place and the
day has evidently come when the develop
ment OF the states resources will readlust
its products in such a manner that II VIII
become known for several pursuits other
than its dairying and maple sugar work
ing. The greatest increase Is shown IN
stone and in cotton goods.
