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
infiamed condition OF the mucous
lining of the Eustachian Tube.
When this tube Is infiamed you have
u rumbling sound or imperfect hear
ing, and when It Is entirely closed
Deafness is the result, and unless the
Inflammation can lie taken out and
this tube restored to It's normal con
dition, hearing will be destroyed for
ever: nine cases out OF ten are caused
by Catarrh, which is nothing but an
inhamed condition of the mucous

Verdi Girl Is Swept To Death

With one despairing shrek, Eta
Pixley, "a years old, a resident of Verdi
since childhood, was swept away to
death Sunday afternoon by cloud
burst that came Gown upon the lumber
camp of the Verdi Lumber company in
Dog Valley, IA miles northwest of
Verdi. ALI afternoon it had been rain
ing hard and there had been ominous
signs of a flood, but a cloud burst is a
rare thing in the mountains of this
coast on the eastern slope, and it was
never imagined that any serious damage
would ensue. The people of the camp
were resting, for it was Sunday after
noon. Miss Pixley with her friend the
school teacher, Miss ODE Souchereau
were in the Office cabin and four men
were standing nearby. An unusual
sound impelled Miss Pixley to go to the
door. 1t was a shrill, shrieking call,
now and then punctuated by deeper
note. She spoke hurriedly to Miss
Souchereau and with the men they
stood for moment outside the cabin,
just as wall of water, on whose crest
great logs tossed in a frenzied dance of
death, bore down upon them, grasping
them in it's clutch, together with the
cabin, which was wrecked in an instant.
The men managed to get the young
women to trees, but Miss Pixley could
not retain her hold in the face of the
torrent and presently calling aloud, she
was carried down into the seething
turmoil. Next, when they found her,
her bruised and 1ifeless body lay amid
a mass Of wreckage near the mouth of
the canyon. ST..
Reports of the loss of other lives,
among them Luke Smith, go years old
were not confirmed last night. Twenty
eight of the valuable horses of the camp
were washed down the canyon by the
rushing waters, while cabins in great
number were swept before the rest
less, resistless flood, which rolled
along, it's crest ten feet high, carrying
the greater part of the camp and nearly
everything else before it-Virginia
