Deafness Cannot be Cured

by local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
There is only one way to cure deafness,
and that is by constitutional remedies.
Deafness is caused by an infamed con-
dition of the mucous lining of the Eus-
tachian Tube. When this tube is infam-
ed you have rumbling sound or imper-
feet hearing, and when it is entirely
closed, Deafness is the result, and un-
less the Inflammation can be taken out
aud this tube restored to its normal con-
dition, hearing will be destroyed forev-
er; nine cases cut of ten are caused by
Catarrh, which is nothing but an inflam-
ed condition of the mucous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars
for any case of Deafness (caused by
catarrh) that cannot be cured by HALL s
Catarrh cure. Send for circulars free.

Honesty Has Higher Value.
Chicago Post.


Today a higher value is placed
on honesty in this country than
has been placed on it since before
the time when in foreign coun-
tries America and millionaire
came to mean the same thing.
In the past men who wrote OF
manhood as above money were
called dreamers. It was an
easy way to dismiss and to dis
credit them. Theodore Roose-
velt refused to be dismissed, and
the people would not let him be
discredited. 1t was a hard gos-
pei that the President preached,
but the country heard it willing
ly and believed it. The United
States in the last seven years
has had a revival experience of
the kind which teaches the last
ing lesson.

DIR. H. G. Hill preached two
able sermons to very large con-
gregations Sunday morning and
evening. His discourse in the
morning was a description of
the New Jerusalem, the home of
the Redeemed, his text being
taken from the twenty-second
chapter of Revelation. His talk in
the evening was about the mis-
slonary convention, which met in
Birmingham, Ala, recently. DR..
Hill first gave us a graphic de-
scription of the convention itself,
then of pressing needs of the
heather world; and lastly he told
US in impressing manner and
words what our duty is in regard
to the heather. The congrega-
tlons listened attentively to both
sermons and we feel sure that
much good was done by his COM
ing among us.
