Deafness Cannot he Cured

Deafness Cannot ne 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 inflamed con
dition OF the mucous lining OF the Eo
stachian Tube. When this tube is in
famed you have rumbling sound or
imperfect hearing, and when it is en
tirely closed, deafness is the result, and
unless the inflammation can be taken out
and this tube is restored to its normal
condition, hearing will be destroyed for
ever; nine cases out OF ten are caused by
catarrh, which is nothing but an in
famed condition of the mucous surfaces

The words are Spanish, but the same
motto was inscribed on sword blades
III the days Of chivalry in most of the
languages Of Europe. Its meaning Is
the knightly rule for all who bear the
sword: DO not draw me without rea.

The weapon was taken from the
abandoned camp Of Wad Bishara, the
derviSh general. after the battle OF
Eatir (Sept. %. 1906. How came a
blade with such a motto to be found
IN Il Moslem bivouac in the heart of
the Sudan?
The presence Of these crusader
swords in the Sudan is not so difficult
to explain. In the thirteenth century
the Mohammedan caliphs Of Egypt not
only carried on successful wars
against the crusaders in Syria. de-
stroying the last vestiges of the Latin
kingdom Of Jerusalem. but also de-
tented two attempts Of the Europeans
to invade Egypt itself. one Of them

Enormous quantities Of western
arms and warlike equipments must
have thus passed into the possession
of the Mohammedan conquerors.-

In fret class conpition. The soil in
that section is the ideal wheat soil OF

and only possible to equal in Montana.
The crowds Of people seeking homes,
as seer yesterday, leave no doubt IN
my mind but that every foot of gov.
eminent land in Teton county will be
taken up before another year, and
that it will be but q short time before
the stretch between this city and
