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 indamed con-
often of the mucous lining of the
Eustachian Tube. When this tube ia
lnfamed you have rumbling sound or
imperfect hearing, and when it is en-
urely closed, deafness is the result. and
unless the inflammation can be taken
out and this tube 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 sur
faces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars
for any case of deafness Caused bv
catarrh) that cannot be cured by Halls

To the Officers and Members of
the Farmers Union:

the Farmers Union:
/ have the honor to report to
you the results thus far of the
most remarkable and significant
conference in the history of the
Farmers Union = the National
legislative conference of officials
and representatives that has been
in progress the last few days in
Washington City.
The conference was called by
myself to consider specifically
means to curb gambling in farm
products of the nation, and many
other measures of Congressional
Importance.
From the earliest days of this
organization, we have been striv-
ing to expose AMI rout that ele-
ment of gamblers using National
crops as pawns in game to beat
down prices tn the producer and
demoraiize business and trade
conditions at large in this coun-
try. We also have been laborine
to secure other measures, such as
the Parcels Post and many others
of interest, to cut membership.
We have long recognized that
to insure victory it would be es-
sential to bring pressure upor
Congress, pressure of such an
order that the Representatives
and Senators would realize our
determination and busy them
selves in cooperating with US
towards tn e materializing Of
many important lawsuits re-
port is intended to show you the
receptive attitude of our law
makers.
The conference of the last few
days has achieved signal success
along these lines.
Congress is awakened to the
power and the determination OF
the Farmers Union as never be-
fore in my recollection.
Republicans and Democrats,
Senators n d Representatives,
faom East and West and North
and South. they crowded into our
meeting. Frequently. as you
will see by the subjoined Min
sutes. whole State delegations at
teaded in a body. other State
delegations were represented and
still others adopted ringing res
olutions favoring the crusade OF
the Farmers Union and pledgine
their utmost aid in making them
effectual.
At the outset, want to give
full credit to the devotion and
the energy of your committee to
assist me in the work of this con-
ference. To a man, thev were
on duty night and day. frequent
ly laboring until the small hours
Of the morning in the prosecu
tion of the details assigned them.
Without hesitation or intermis
sion they approached Congress
men, ascertained their positions
on reform legislation and urged
their attendance at our sessions.
Not a man Jagged; all of them
were faithful. industrious, will
ling and eager to be of the great
est possible assistance.
As consequence of their en-
deavors we are gradually lining
up the Congress of this country.
committing them by word of
mouth and by public expression,
separating the sheep from the
goats and paving the way for
such legislative results Az no
farmers organization has ever
attained.
In this connection. l should In
justice say tnat there are Con-
gressmen who will work sincere
