HAD INTERESTING
RUNAWAY

Mr.. Neil and family had a
very interesting runaway Sun
day afternoon. They were in
front of the National bank when
the team became little bit
frightened and jumping, broke
the tongue. OF course they were
badly frightened then and began
to run. In turning the corner
by DR.. Miller's Office the buggy
ran into the ditch which broke
. the double trees and in fact
saved the occupants of the car
riage from serious injury. The
straps on the double trees pulled
the rig across the street and in
to the ditch on the other side.
By this time every wheel on the
rig was broken down and the oc-
cupants were piled out rather
quietly. The ladies were badly
bruised but not seriously while
Mr.. Simmons had his wrist
severely sprained.

PAVING PROBLEMS CONSIDERED

It seems to be the consensus Of
pubic opinion that in comparison Of
the several materials for paving
brick offers the best Investment,
though the initial cost is higher
than the other forms of pavement.
On the question OF maintenance
sitter the pavement is once installed,
on life of the pavement when sub
jected to heavy traffic and under
climatic conditions such as prevail
in this valley, conditions seem large
" TO favor the use OF brick
The fact that bitulithic and as
phalt pavements are under the con-
troll OF monopoly and that when
they are laid are the source of heavy
expense for materials and expert
labor In making the necessary re-
pairs in case of bad composition in
the compounds, Or for reason that II
was necessary to tear up the pave
ment for the laying Of mains OF
sewer connections are arguments
against their use in small citles
where the small area Of the district
paved does not justify the employ,
ment Of an expert repairing depart
ment.

Deafness Cannot Be Cured


by local applications, as they can
lot 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 inflamed condition of the mu-
,cous lining of the Eustachian Tube.
When this tube is inflamed you have
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 it's normal
condition, hearing will be destroyed
forever; nine cases out of ten ere
caused by Catarrh, which is NOTHING
but an infiamed condition of thu
mucous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars
for any case of Deafness (caused by
catarrh) that cannot be cured by
