Deafness Cannot Be Cured.

by local appliances, as they cannot reach
the diseased portion OF the ear. There Ia
only one way to cure deafness, and that Is
by constitutional remedies. Deafness Is
caused by an inflamed condition Of the mu.
cous lining Of the Eustachlan Tube. When
this tube is inflamed you have a rumbllng
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 con-
dition, hearing will be destroyed forever
nine cases out Of ten are caused by Catarrh,
which is nothing but an inflamed condi-
tion OF the mucous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars for
case Of Deafness Caused by catarrh) that

Electric Road Activity.

Dayton, Wash.-The latest move in
the electric road situation in this val
ley is the dispatching of engineers
representing the Washington Traction
company, to the headwaters of the
Touchet river above Dayton. In the
party are DR.. n. G.. Blalock and Pro-
fessor w. d. Lyman OF Walla Walla,
and e. Tappean Tannatt of Spokane.
According to DR.. Blalock the object
is to locate a power site on the Touch
ct. The Wala Walla g. Columbia
Traction company has already COM
pleted final estimates for a power
plant on the Tukanon. With engi-
neers of both companies in the field
people of this region are elated over
the prospects of construction COM
mencing soon.
That one of the two companies will
be crowded from the field when the
fight which Is about due is precipi-
tated, is evident, as the valley will not
support two electric lines in addition
to the two steam roads. The present
move of the Washington company is
considered the most important yet
made.
