Deafness Cannot Be Cured

by local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ar.
There Is only one way to cur deal
ness and that is by constitutional
remedies. Deafness is caused by an
infiamed condition Of the mucous
lining of the Eustachian Tube.
When this tube is inhamed 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
inlamed condition of the mucou
surfaces.

and Amelia Wilson, and the year
following her birth, her parents moved
to Muskingum county, Ohio, where
she was married, May 10. 1S45 to J..
II. Henderson. They moved westward
to Illinois shortly after their marriage
this county, settling in this city. The
rest of their lives was spent here, with
the exception of nine years in Jewel
county, Kansas, they having moved
there in 1884 and returned again to
Washington in 1893. Mrs. Henderson
was one of the few who grew up with
the town and watched it develop from
its early pioneer infancy to its present
size. Mr.. Henderson preceded his
wife in death in 1897. and since that
time she has made her home with her
daughter, Mrs. Steck. The deceased
Is survived by three daughters, Mrs.
II. A. Burnside. of Oskaloosa; Mrs. II.
F. Steck, of this city and Mrs. &. M.
Buchanan, of Fairfield. and one son,
r. X. Henderson, of Chicago. A
daughter, Mary W.. died in infancy.
Two sisters, the last of a family OF
eight children, also survive. Mrs. Van
Dyke, of Ohio. Mo-. and Mrs. Sarah
Findley, of Chautauqua. Kansas. Mrs.
Henderson was one OF Washington
well known and highly respected
women, her long residence here hav-
ing giving her an opportunity of build
ing up a wide acquaintance through
out the community. From this ac'
quaintance Mrs. Henderson could
claim host of friends. She was a
faithful member and regular attendant
of the First United Presbyterian
church in this city, until her health
made it necessary for to give up. her
active work with that denomination
She was a woman of good Christian
character, and one who exercised a
wide felt influence upon those who
were privileged with her acquaintance,

quite a different appearance and is
edifying to pupils, teachers and pa
irons. A neighborhood ought to keep
its school house, buildings and grounds
in good order.
