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 in
famed condition of the mucous lining of the
Eustachian Tube. When this tube is fnfiamed
you have q rumbling sound or imperfect hear
ing, and when 1t Is entirely closed, Deafness is
the res ult, and unless tina Inflammation can be
taken out and this tube re, toIed 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 can
not be cured by Halls Catarrh Cure. Send for

More Boil WeeviI.

In addition to Miller, Lafayette and Columbia counties, other counties in the southern part of Arkansas are re- ported to be infested by boll-weevils, according to a letter received lately by the Little Rock Board of Trade from the Bureau of Entomology of the Department of Agriculture. The map being prepared. according.to the letter, will include parts of two other eoun- ties, but the map was not available at the time the letter was written and the names of the counties were not given. but they will be furnished by the. bureau as soon as possible. The letter states that there can be no possible doubt as to the correctness of the report. as agents from the Bureau of Entomology. who are per fectly familiar with the boll-weevil, have visited the infested localities.

Is lt a New One?

Much interest has been caused by the report that men excavating in the rear of the Rector bath house on Cen tral avenue, Hot Springs, had dis covered new hot water spring, un- earthed good quality of slate, md found good indications of coal. The property is owned by Col E. w. Rec. tor, who was having the excavations made to install a new house heating plant for the Rector bath house. It is the general opinion that the spring Is not genuine. but only from leak In the hot-water pipes leading into the bath house. The fact that it is just across Central avenue from the othe hot springs leads other people to te- lieve that after digging deepar. a gen. uine hot spring will be opened. The temperature of the water is 100 de- grees Fahrenheit

Didn't Hurt Him Much.

Jesse Evans, a negro living near Newark, accidently struck himself in the head with an axe few days ago. and split a considerable gash in his skull. He was in the yard chopping some wood, and in making an over handed lick the axe struck clothes line just in front of him. causing it to rebound and strike him on the head. The axe was q double -bladed one. and one blade struck him full in the forehead with such force that his skull was split and a part of his brain was exposed He didn't think he was hurt much, and walked to q neighbours to get something done for 1t. The neighbor advised him to have doctor, and Evans rode to Newark to see Dr. Poe. The negro was some what surprised when Dr. Poe told him that his skull was split and that he could see his brain.

Struck Natural Gas.

A flow of gas was struck In the prospect we'll on the Nugent farm in Washington county near Prairie Grove recently. The strike was a great surprise to the prospectors, as the we'll was only G feet deep when the pocket of gas was encountered. A piece of paper was lighted and dropped into the well, when the gas took fire and the paper was blown out several hundred feet above the we'll The noise from the escaping gas was heard a considerable distance. The well is now 70 feet deep and the drill is pounding on very hard lime stone rock. A stream of water was struck at depth of 10 feet, which is interfering with the work, as a pump has not yet been put in. Men of eX- perience are at work on the well and are confident of securing a good flow of gas before drilling many more feet

More Work For the Courts.

Three officials of Chicot county have been suspended pending trials on charges of malfeasance in office, and Governor Davis has appointed men to fill the positions pending the trial Of the cases. The trouble grows out of the recent mandamus suits brought against County Judge W. G. Street. and Sheriff NJ. c. Strong. in which 1t was alleged that Sheriff Strong was s4s,O00 short in his account with the county.
 Official notice came to Governor Davis to the effect that indictments had been returned by the Chicot County Grand Jury against County Judge w. c. Street. and County Treas urer Abner Gaines, charging malfeas- ance in office. Circuit Judge z. T. Wood at once suspended the two men, and the notice was forwarded to Gov Davis. The suspension of these two officials follows directly on the sus- pension from office recently by Judge Wood of Sheriff NJ. c. Strong. Acting on the official notice of the suspen- sion of these three officials, Governor Davis appointed men to hold the po- sitions pending the hearing

They Got Damages.

conclusion reached at Helena re centIv in the two damage suits for s50 o00 each that were instituted by Adelaide Vitt and Marian Emmons' both of Sf. Louis. against Thomas h. Musgraye. d well-to-do Arkansas iarih- er of Garfield. Mississippi county. The iurv assessed damages at s6zo in favor of Miss Witt and at sl'oVo in favor of Miss EDlmons. MusgraFe : counsel stated. after the verdict was rendered, that he would not prosecute an appeal. and that he would terml- nate the proceedings by paying the amounts assessed against him. The young women claimed damages on the allegation that they were lured to Musgrave's place in Arkansas and held there against their will. Mus grave. on the other hand. ayerred that he went 10 St. Louis and secured Miss Witt to come 10 Garfield to act as housekeeper for him.

NEWS OF
 ARKANSAS
A Family Monument.

A. Y. Swaty, in charge of the gov ernment demonstration farm works Arkansas, has sent out invitations to farmers of Columbia county to meet with him october 27, at Waldo. The meeting is for the purpose primarily of securing the cooperation of the farmers in establishing demonstra. ton farm in Columbia county, but 1t is expected that some action will be taken by the farmers in attendance regarding the boil weevil investigation. The reports of the government ex. perts show that the weevil has not extended as far north in Columbia county as Waldo, but the farmers in that section are deeply interested in the investigations now being made, because if the weevil migrates far ther north 1t will be in their felds by the middle of the winter. It is probable that a committee will be se- lected at the meeting to ascertain what steps can be taken, if any, which will tend to check the spread of the weevil to the northern part of the county.

HAD CONSIDERED THE POINT.
Juryman's Explanation Somewhat of a
 Joke on Judge.

A lawyer in the western part of Massachusetts having a rather des- perate case to defend, called the courts attention to the wording of the statute, empowering the jury to judge of the law as well as of the facts" and requested him to instruct accordingly. The judge somewhat re- luctantly did so, adding, however, that the jurymen should accept his inter pretation of the principles involved unless they were fully satisfied that they knew more law than he did.
 In spite of this, an outrageous yer dict was brought in, utterly contrary to tie instructions of the judge, who severely rebuked the jurors.
 The foreman, horny handed farm CT, rose to reply. "Jedge," said he, weren't we to jedge the law as well as the facts?'
 Certainly" was the response. but I told you not to judge the law unless you were satisfied that you knew the law better than l did.
 Well, jedge," answered the farmer, as he shifted his quid, we considered that pint"

4 FOOD CONVERT.
Good Food the True Road to Health

The pernicious habit some persons still have of relying on nauseous drugs 10 relieve dyspepsia, keeps up the patent medicine business and helps keep up the army of dyspeptics
 Indigestion = dyspepsia -is caused by what is put into the stomach in the way of improper food, the kind that so taxes the strength of the di- gestive organs they are actually crip- pied
 When this state is reached, to resort to stimulants is like whipping a tired horse with a big load. Every addi- tional effort he makes under the lash increases his loss of power to move the load.
 Try helping the stomach by leaving off heavy, greasy, indigestible food and take on GrapeNuts-light, easily di- gested, full of strength for nerves and brain, in every grain of it. There's no waste of time nor energy when Grape Nuts is the food.
 T am an enthusiastic user of Grape Nuts and consider it an ideal food" writes a Maine man:
 T had nervous dyspepsia and was all run down and my food seemed to do me but little good. From reading an adv. l tried Grape.Nuts food, and after a few weeks steady use of it, felt greatly improved.
 Am much stronger, not nervous now, and can do more work without feeling so tired, and am better every way.
 q relish Grape-Nuts best with cream and use four heaping teaspoonfuls at a meal. I am sure there are thou sands of persons with stomach trou ble who would be benefited by using Grape-Nuts."
