rendered several pleasing selections
during the program.

Deafness Cannot be Cured.

by local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear !.
There is only one way to cure deaf
ness, and that is by constitutional
remedies. Deafness Is caused by an
infamed condition of the mucous
lining of the Eustachian Tube. When
this tube is inflamed you have a
rumbling sound or imperfect hear
ing, and when it is entirely closed,
Deafness Is the result, and unless the
inflammation can be taken out and
this tube restored to its normal con-
|dition, hearing will be destroyed for
ever; nine cases out of ten are caused
by Catarrh, which Is nothing but an
infamed condition of the mucous
surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dol
ars for any case of Deafness (caused
by Gatarrh) that cannot be cured

Pierre. s. D., Nov. 2S.-The disaa
p%Carance of Editor j. r. Mckinney, OF

August becomes more of a mystery as
time goes py. Mckinley went to OF
tumwa early last summer and started d
paper and after being there a short
time, married a young woman claim
holder. He conducted his paper up to
August and appeared 10 be prosperous.
While there were a few debts against
the plant, the business would easily
have paid them in a short time.
Beside the paper he was interested
i'm the townsite, and had other inter-
ests, all of which were bringing him
money. The day before he disappeared
he paid several bills which he owed,
and said he would have to go to Mid
land to look after some business on
Saturday and might not be back until
Monday.
Saturday morning he and his wife
drove from their claim near Ottumwa
going toward Midland, and that was
the last seen or heard of them by
auyon who knew them. They never
reached Midland or any other town
along the railroad so far as can be
learned, nor can IN trace be secured
of their having stopped at any place
within a radius Of Ottumwa either at
noon of that day or that night. Rela-
tives of the wife have in the past few
days written to Ottumwa to learn il

When the discovery of the pictures

of photographs of some Of the babies
of a score of years ago.
Max Fishel led a lonely life, one OF
the strongest characteristics of which
was his passionate devotion for babies.
Back in 1892 when the photographer,
Grabil, who had taken the pictures,
left the Hills, Fishel bought up his
whole stock and hid them in his base
ment. There, it is said, he made daily
trips to pore over his treasures. Offers
of money for any Of the pictures never
tempted him to sell.

and contracted before shipment 20 the
Sioux City Linseed OIL company, was
in every way most satisfactory.
