Inteqer Vitae.

The man OF life upright
Whose guiltless heart is free
From all dishonest deeds,
Or thought of vanity;
The man whose silent days
In harmless joys are spent.
Whom hopes can not delude,
Nor sorrow discomfort;
That man needs neither towers
Nor armor for defense.
Nor secret vaults 20 fly
From thunder's violence:
He only can behold
With unaffrighted eyes
The horrors OF the deep
And terrors Of the skies.
Thus. scorninE all the cares
That fate OF fortune brings.
He makes the heaven his book.
His wisdom heavenly things;
Good thoughts his only friends.
His wealth a well-spent age.
The earth his sober inn
And quiet pilgrimage.

Deafness Cannot be Gu ed

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 inhamed condition of the mucous lin
ing of the Eustachian Tube. When this tube
is infamed you have rumbling sound or i'm
perfect hearing, and when it is entirely clos
ed, Deafness is the result, and unless the in
hammaton can be taken out and this tube
restored to its normal condition, hearing will
be destroyed forever; nine cases out of ten
are caused by Catarrh, which is nothing but
an nhamed condition OF the mucous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars for any
case of Deafness (caused by catarrh) that
cannot be cured by Halls Catarrh Cure

CURE AT BATH
More Proof, Near at Hand, of
the Value OF the Tonic
Treatment for St0m.
ach Trouble.

There are plenty of remedies by which
you can relieve for the time heartburn,
pain and gas ON the stomach and can
smother nervous sensations and induce
artificial sleep. But when you take
your next meal all your troubles begin
afresh.
Experience shows that these troubles
vanish just as soon as the stomach is
made strong enough to digest the food
In other words, it needs a tonic that
will rouse it to do the work of changing
the food into nourishment. The tonic
used ought to be one that will agree with
the most delicate stomach
Mrs. James n Gillis, of No. Tarbox
street. Bath, Maine, found quick relief
in DR.. Williams Pink Pills after seven
wears of indigestion. Upon their results
alone DR.. Williams Pink Pills deserve a
thorough trial by every victim of stom
ach trouble Mrs Gillis related her
case as follows:
"For seven years was in poor health

by overwork and grew worse each year.

The most successful remedy in this
country for the cure of all forms of
female complaints is Lydia E. Pink
hams Vegetable Compound. 1t has
stood the test of years and to-day Is
more widely and successfully used than
any other female remedy. It has cured
thousands of women who have been
troubled with displacements, inflam-
nation, liberation, fibroid tumors, ir-
regularities, periodic pains, backache,
that bearing-down feeling, flatulency,
Indigestion, and nervous prostration,
after all other means had failed.
If you are suffering from any of these
ailments, don't give up hope until you
have given Lydia E. Pinkham's Vege-
table Compound trial.
If you would like special advice
write to Mrs. Pinkham, Lynn,
Mass, for it. She has guided
thousands to health, free of
