Deafness Cannot Be Cured

BY local applications. as they cannot reach the dis
eased portion OF the ear. There Is only one way to
cure deafness, and that is by constitutional remedies.
Deafness is caused by an infamed condition OF the
mucous lining OF the Eustachian Tube. When this
tube is inhamed you have q rumbling sound OF Inn
perfect hearing. and when 1t Is entirely closed, Deaf
ness is the result, and unless the Inflammation can be
taken out and this tube restored to Its normal condi-
ton, hearing will be destroyed forever, nine cases
out of ten are caused by Catarrh. which is nothing
but an innamed coalition OF the mucous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars for any case of

If the labor unions OF the country

OF the country by refusing to eat meat
for thirty days, they will have earned

who continue TO eat meat. Indications
are that this unique boycott is wide

measur OF success. In Cleveland
where the number Of meat ~boycotters
Is thirty thousand, the wholesale price
Of beef has fallen off fifteen cents a
hundred pounds. This sudden drop
comes too soon to be accounted for by
any less price paid TO cattle raisers and
indicates that after all there may be
a margin between the producer M the

"LlTTLE JOHNNY JONES'"

Among the list of notable attractions
booked in this city for the coming
season, there is perhaps none that at
tracts more interest than Little John
ny Jones'" which is booked for the
opera house tomorrow night. Little
Johnny Jones' is a musical melodrama
which last season scored what was
unquestionably the biggest success of
all the new musical productions. Last
year it vas played in only a few towns
outside of New York City, therefore,
the fact that it is to be seen in this
city is probably one of the most inn

will be made by the local management
this year. Little Johnny Jones" is
