Married Fifty Years Ago.

Mr.. and Mrs. William p. Smith OF
East Bethel were married fifty years ago
Dec. 49, lie then lived in Northheld ana
worked in machine shop. Soon after
wards the couple removed to Brandon,
where Mr., Smith was engaged In the
same business till his health was affected
by the dust, when he came 10 East Bethel
and established himself as merchant
and held at the same time the office OF
postmaster.
lie built upa good trade and his wife,
true helpmeet, carried on the hoop.
skirt business. BY their united industry
and executive ability they were successful
and their means were freely used to
benefit the poor OF their vicinity. Their
business career lasted for over forty years.
Mr.. Smith purchased the Wedgwood
house and fitted up all the buildings in
modern style and comfort. But they
were struck by lightning and burned TO
the ground. He then bought the brick
house, formerly owned by William Wight,
where he still resides with his wife and
adopted daughter, Margaret.
Mr.. and Mrs. Smith have both been
upright and true, wronging no one by
word or deed, and, laboring in quiet,
modest way, have made the world bet. er
for their having lived in it. 1t is what
we do that shows what we are.
One pleasing incident of the return OF
bread cast upon the waters may be mem
toned. When the home of Henry
Clifford OF Rnyalton was burned, Mr..
Smith sent him a sum OF money as token
OF sympathy. In after years Mr.. Clifford
went South and amassed fortune.
When Mr.. Smith had the misfortune to
lose his house by fire, Mr.. Clifford had
not forgotten his kindness but sent to
him the principal and interest of the sum
he had received from him.
The one great sorrow OF the venerable
couple occurred when diphtheria ran its
race in East Bethel and their adopted
daughter, May, was one OF the seventeen
who died in Il distance of one and hall
miles. They have still two adopted
daughters living, Mrs. Erwin Perrin and
Miss Margaret before mentioned. Such
lives as those led by Mr.. and Mrs. Smith
are OF value to the world. not only for the
work accomplished by them, but as ex-
amples to others of right living.

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 inflamed condition of the
mucous lining of the Eustaehian Tube,
When this tube Is infiamed, you have a
rumbling sound or imperfect hearing. AMI
when it is entirely closed deafness is the
result, and unless the Inflammation can be
taken out and this tube restored to its
normal condition, hearing will be de-
stroyed forever; nine cases out OF ten are
caused by catarrh, which is nothing but
an inflamed condition OF the mucous sur
faces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars for
any case OF deafness (caused by catarrh)
that cannot be cured by Halls Catarrh
Cure. Send for circulars free.
