A. G.. Morey: Il noticed that the
only one among the judges last year
who seemed to know what he was
doing was the Oregon man. l don't

deep. The so-called 'old guard" had

even the leaders were out of har-

begun to manifest itself, especially in
the western part of the state.
But insurgency was in the air. The

Mr.. Higgins. who. although Of Irish extraction,

house at Gowanus. Miss Frazers attention was
first called to the house by painting executed
by Louis CRUDE In 1886 at the order Of George An.

However. all misgivings to the contrary. Mrs
Taft was enabled to enjoy n thoroughly quiet and
restful summer at Beverly. and this program will
be repeated this season. for the health OF the
first lady of the land continues anything but

for the securing Of the breezes which have

the house is located only about a hundred yards

and the fact that the cottage may be approached

DEAFNESS CANNOT BE CURED

Ivy local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion Of the ear.
There 10 only one way to cure deaf
ness, and that is by constitutional
remedies. Deafness is caused by an
inflamed condition of the mucous lin
ing Of the Enstachian Tube. When the
tube is inflamed you have a rumbling
sound or imperfect hearing, and when
it is entirely 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 forever; nine cases out of
ten are caused by Catarrh, which is
nothing but an inflamed condition Of
the mucous surfaces.
