Men Past Fifty in Danger

Men past middle life have
found comfort and relief in
Foley's Kidney Remedy, espe-
cially for enlarged prostate
gland, which is very common
among elderly men. L. e.
Morris, Dexter, KY, writes:
Cup to a year ago my father
suffered from kidney and blad-
der trouble and several physi-
clans pronounced it enlarge
ment of the prostate gland and
advised an operation. On &C
count of his age we were afraid
he could not stand it and re-
commended Foley's Kidney
Remedy, and the first DO tie
relieved him, and after taking
the second bottle he was no
longer troubled with this ccm-
plant"

Deafness Cannot be Cured

by local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the car.
There is only one wayto cure deafness,
and that is by constitutional remedies.
Deafness is caused by an iniamed con-
dition of the mucous lining of the
Eustachian Tube. When this tube is
infiamed 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 restored to its
normal condition, hearing will be de-
stroved forever: nine cases out Of ten
are caused by Catarrh, which is moth
ing but an inHamed condition OF the
mucous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars
Tor any case OF Deafness (caused by
catarrh) that cannot be cured by Hall 5
Catarrh Cure. Send for circulars, free.

reported to The Commonwealth


The many friends of Rev. and Mrs.
G. A. Jones deeply sympathize with
them in the death of their little
daughter, Ethel Louise, which oc-
Cured in their home Tuesday morn
ing at three o'clock. Sick only few
days her death came as shock.
Not quite nine months did God
leave her with them, but in that
time she had entwined herself around
their very hearts and lives; she was
the light" of that mothers heart.
Their home is saddened wit sorrow
now and their very heart-strings
seem almost torn asunder.
But they with unfaltering faith,
know that God makes no mistakes,
that what he does is for the best.
Some day We'll understand
Gods plans like lilies pure and
white unfold,
We must not tear the close shut
leaves apart;
Time will reveal the calyxes Of Gold. "

ed at the home by the Presiding
Elder, w. S. Rome, Tuesday after
noon at five o'clock, and the remains
