CROWN POINT MERCHANTS
VIEW WITH ALARM

The merchants in Crown Point are
viewing with alarm the invasion of
commercial interests from other towns
in their efforts to get a parcel of the
trade here. and have taken the first
steps to combat the intrusion and keep
the trade where it beIongs-at home
and at the same time making an ap-
peal and catering to the farmers
trade. One store here has instituted
business on a strictly cash basis,
and it is said that others Will soon
follow in his footsteps in their efforts
to meet the outside competition. What
Crown Point Jas long needed is an
organization OF merchants to take up
these problems of protecting home in
terests, meeting outside competition
with prices that are attractive to the
home consumer. No one merchant can
do these things alone, but an organiza-
ton can accomplish wonders in trade
getting Who will make the first move
toward this end?

Deafness Cannot Be Cured.

There is only one way to cure deafness,

Deafness is caused by an infamed con-

Eustachian Tube. When this tube is
inflamed you have rumbling sound
or imperfect hearing, and when it Is
entirely closed, Deafness Is the result,
and unless the Inflammation can be
taken out and this tube resi- pred to its
normal condition, hearing will be de-
stroyed forever; nine cases out of ten
are caused by Catarrh. which is moth
