Deafness Cannot be Cured

by local applications. as they cannot
reach the diseased portion OF the ear.
There is only one way TO cure deaf
ness. and that. is by constitutional
famed condition Of the mucous lining
Of the Eustachian Tube. When this
tube is infiamed you have a rumbling
sound or imperfect hearing, and when
# is entirely closed, Deafness Is the
result. and unless the Inflammation
can be taken out and this tube re-
stored to its normal condition, hearing
will be destroyed forever; nine cases
out OF ten are caused by Catarrh, which
is nothing but an inhamed condition
Of the mucous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars
for any case Of Deafness (caEsed by
catarrh) that cannot be ured by Hall .

Chapman street it is understood that
Alderman Sullivan Is to petition for
the installation OF q new fire alarm
box on that street. The system now
requires frequent repairs and in view
of the fact that more new boxes must
of necessity be installed from time to
time, the chief believes that the in
stallation of the new system at cost
of approximately $1,000 would mean
money saved to the city and insure
to the citizens a fire protection that
