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 an intiamed con-
dition of the mucous lining of the
Eustachian Tube. When this tube is
inflamed you have a rumbling sound
or imperfect hearing, and when it IS
entirely closed, Deafness is the result.
and unless the inflammation can be TAX
en- out and this tube restored to its
normal condition, hearing will be de-
stroyed forever; nine cases out of ten
are caused by Catarrh, which is moth
ing but an inflamed condition of the
mucous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars
for any case of Deafness Caused by
catarrh) that cannot be cured by

ANNUAL REPORT OF ST. CLARE HOSPITAL.
FORT BENTON, MONT,
For the Year Ending January L, 1909.

The Sisters of St. Glare Hospital have kindly furnished us with a copy of
the annual report for the year 1905, which W consider of much interest to the
public.
During the past year upwards of $4,000 were expended in adding to and
beautfying the hospital. A new surgery was built and furnished according
to the most modern and upto-date methods; new operating table, sterizers,
and the other paraphernalia called for by modern surgical science. The
exterior of the building has been painted and many other noticeable
improvements made about the grounds, which give the institution a pictur-
esque aspect. The interior has been completely remodehd, painted and arus-
ticaly decorated, to give the sick room and ward a comfortable and cheerful
appearance.
The hospital has accommodations fol about fifty paients.i nIuiveo
private rooms set apart for the more serious cases.. The nursing faculty is
made up OF Sisters who AVE devoted their lives to ministering to the sick,
assisted by two lay nurses, all holding certificates from schools where nurs-
ing is treated as a scientific study. The institution lis under the immediate
s been associated for a number of years with the best hospitals of the
United States and Canada.
During the year POI patients, suffering from the various diseases which
the human frame ish heir to, were received in the hospital for treatment, and it
speaks volumes for all concerned that only five deaths occurred. OF this
number % were surgical and 12s medical cases. Those who so desire arc af
forded the opportunity of receiving special atention-speciany selected
nurses, Sisters or graduates from Columbus hospital training schools are
always available. The Rev. superioress daily visits all patients to see that
every want is attended to.
In the past, owing to the number of county charges cared for, the accom-
modations were no. so extensive, but now that only the sick poor ar treated
here, more commodious appointments, where perfect quieness is maintained,
will be at the service of patients.
