There is only one way to cure deaf
ness, ard that is by constitutional
remedies. Deafness is caused by an
infamed condition of the mucous lin
ing OF the Eustachian tube. When
this tube is inhamed you have a
rumbling sound or imperfect hearing,
and when It is entirely closed, deaf
ness is tn eresult and unless the in
fiammation can be taken out and this
tube restored to its normal condition,
hearing win be destroyed forever;
nine cases out OF ten are caused by
catarrh, which is nothing but an in
famed condition Of the mucous sur

catarrh) that cannot be cured by

BROTHER

El Dorado (Kan.) Republican,: When
the civil war broke out Mrs. T. B.
Murdoek, then Miss Marie Antoinette
culbreth, lived with her parents on
the eastern shore Of Maryland; in the
family was one brother named John,
who in the first OF the trouble between
the states, ran the blockade-with
some companions these youths were
called BY the papers those days the
Flower OF st. Marys they joined
Stewards artillery, and John Culbreth
ives swallowed UP, like many others,
who were never heard from.
After all these years of silence man
registered at the Commercial hotel
here in FL Dorado, Tuesday. as -
Culbreth H. and inquired as 10 the
whereabouts Of the late Alfred Redden.
who was a cousin Of Mrs. Murdock
Some one suggested that Mr.. Culbreth
see T. A. Kramer, which he did, said
be was a relative OF Mrs. Murdoch, as
well as Alfred Redden. and told many
incidents Of his life that tally with the
early history OF John Culbreth Mr..
Kramer suggested he call at the Re-
publican Office as Mrs. Murdoch was
not we'll; but here is the trouble, he
failed to call or make himself known
Ia any way. possibly because he
thought his sister was not well and the
shock would be too much. After stay
ing around the hotel all day he left,
he said for Oklahoma to spend the
winter. Mrs. Murdock heard of the
strangers appearance and believing
him to be her brother is anxious to
hear from him. Telephone and tele-
graph were unayailing, SO she is now
calling on the press Of Southern Kan
sas and Oklahoma to help her to find
J. Culbreth-be he brother or any re-
lation. She wants to hear from him.
