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 con-
dition of the mucous lining of the Eusta-
chan Tube When this tube is infiamed
YOU have a rumbling sound or imperfect
hearing, and when it is entirely closed
Deafness is the result and unless thc
inf1ammat ton can bo taken out and this
tube restored to it's normal condition
hearing will be destroyed forever; nine
cases out of ten are caused by Catarrh
which is nothing but an inflamed condi'

Marriage Not a Failure.

Ex-senator William E. Mason of Hi
nois, speaking of bachelors, says there
is the same difference between a mar
ried man and bachelor that there is
between an old soldier and. raw re-
cruit. He knows that married men are
honest, and he thinks most bachelors
are above suspicion, but the odds are
in favor of the married men.

Death OF Ira f.. Dodd.

Died, at his home, near Pendle-
ton, on August 30th, 1907, Ira e.
Dodd, in the Goth year of his age.
He was born and raised in Oconee
county. He is survived by fifty
grand children and fifty great grand
children, all living in Oconee and An
derson counties. He had been a
member Of the Baptist church for
fifty-five years, and had served as
deacon about thirty years. He is
well remembered by many of the peo-
pie Of Oconee, as he lived here until
three years ago, when he moved to
Anderson county.
p His death will be learned by hosts
OF friends here and elsewhere with
deep regret. He was an excellent
citizen and good man, and will be
missed, though his ripe years made
1t impossible, under any circum-
stances, for his life Of usefulness to
have been prolonged for any length
of time.

THE cHANGEABLIs MISSOURI.
Places Farms Wheresoever Its Fancy
May Dictate.
(From the American Magazine. !,

iFrom the American Magazine.)
There are rivers of all lengths and
sizes, and all degrees and wetness.
There are rivers with all sorts of pc
culiarities and with widely varying
claims to fame. But there is only
one river with personality, habits,
dissipations, a sense of humor and a
woman's caprice, a river that goes
travelling sidewise, that interferes in
politics, rearranges geography, and
dabbies- i'll real estate; river that
plays hide and seek with yon to-day
and tomorrow follows you around
like a pet dog with dynamite crack
er tied to Its tail. That river is the
Missouri. ttS
This thing happened in Kansas
City not many years ago. A party Of
men owned a strip OF land along the
Missouri River bank. 1t was not
handsome land, but 1t was valuable
for factory purposes. They were Of
serea portiy prices for il, out heid on.
One day they noticed that tne strip
was getting emaciated. They held a
hurried diagnosis with surveyors
tape and found that half of 1t had
been washed away. The next year
half of the remainder had gone.
The men wanted to sell then, but
the market seemed remarkably slug
gish. The next year the river ate so
vigorously that only tiny strip
about as wide as piece of baby rib
bon was left The men were much
depressed.
Suddenly the land began to in
crease. The Missouri had chosen the
late manufacturing site for a place
to deposit fine 16O-acre farm upon
which it had foreclosed up the river.
Inside of six months that strip of
land contained 200 acres. The men
were jubilant, but still they would
NOT sell. They wanted another 100
acres, they said. They strolled along
the bank each day and urged the
river, in proprietary tones, to build
faster. s,s. @,s@
Then the river changed it's mind
once more and not only wiped out
the extra 100 acres, but the original
100 acres, every foot of it. The next
year 1t built up 500 acres in the
same spot, but they all belonged to
the man who owned the ground be-
hind the original plot. They have
stayed there ever since that Is, up
to last reports. For high financing
and property Juggling the Missouri
makes crooked lawyer look like a
child. l hate to think what 1t would
do for a man If 1t had a personal
friendship for him.

boring dwelling, partially consuming H.
In rushing from their homes, many oc-
cupants of the building were knocked
down and trampled.
Great difficulty was experienced in

hremen went on the tracks and forced
trains 10 stop running The current was
then shut off.

JUDGE JONES
WORSE THAN
OLD BUSTED
Lieut.. Gov. Gray
Severe Araignment of
Alabama Federal Jur-
iSt for L. & N. Action.
-Eieuf. Gov. Gray

BIRMINGHAM. Ala. Aug. 16.-Speak-
ing of the Injunction granted by Judge
Jones against Alabama sherifIS and So
licitOrs to prevent indictment or arrest
of Louisville and Nashville officers and
agents in case Of violation Of the States
lower freight and passenger laws. Lieut.
Gov. H B. Gray expressed his OpinOin
OF Judge Jones action in the following
statement.
Il do not think Judge Busteed. in the
dark days Of reconstruction, ever issued
50 drastic an order as the one which
emanated from Judge Jones yesterday
1t IS TO be. regretted that the l.. &
n railroad, which was SO prominent in
the fight in Kentucky which resulted in
the assassination of Governor Goebel
should have the power in Alabama to
have such an order issued
Il do not believe the people of Ala
bama will submit to the assumption of
power on the nart of judge who holds
"a life time position and who feels that
he IS responsible TO neither God nor man
for his actions.
''As to what Governor Conner will do.
/ have no idea. but / do not believe he
can be bullicd or bulldozed into DOING 4
thing he does not believe 10 be right.
Alabama Is Southern State. and
though bound for the moment in fetters
Cf Jurisprudence she will reassert her
self and like truth crushed 10 earth
will rise again, resplendent in her
strength and beauty and throw off the
despotic heel Of this second Busted"
Busteed referred TO was the most Is-
nOrant, brutal, and tyrannical of car
petbag judges at Montgomery In recon-
structiOn days.
One of the leading attorneys for the
Southern announced the Louisville and
Nashville's action was unwise and cal
culated to provoke hostility rs we'll as
being incapable of enforcement.
Il was glad to get our road out Of
the wet he said, referring to the
Southern's compromise and agreement
10 put the lower freight and passenger
rates into effect in September.
