Deafness Cannot Be Cured

by local applications, as they can
not reach the diseased portion of
the ear. There is only one way
to cure deafness, and that Is by
by constitutional remedies. Deaf.
ness is caused by an lnhamed con
dition of the mucoused lining OF
the Eustachlan Tube. When this
tube Is inaamed you have a rumb
ling 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 lnflamed
condition Uf the mucous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dol.
lars for any case of Deafness
Caused by catarrh) that cannot
be cured by Halls Catarrh Cure.

Last Thursday was a pleasant
day especially IN the forenoon,
one such as Lowell spoke of when
he said; "Ileaven tries the earth
If it be in tune, And over 1t softly
her warm ear lays" On that
day number of persons carry
ing small bundles might have
been seen euterlng the home of
John W. LaIdig, and the mem
bers of the family had donned
holiday attire instead of the every
day working clothes. And why?
Well, because Mrs. Laldlg for the
first tune in her life could look
back upon a half century of a
busy and useful life, and the
members of her family had in
vlted a mum Der of relatives and
friends to help celebrate the day.
AS 1t was a genuine surprise
there was an absence of chicken,
cakes, and pies for dinner, but
plenty of other nourishlng and
digestible food. Mrs. Laidig re
celved number of presents both
useful and ornamental, also a lot
of post cards. During the day,
besides, the numbers of the fam
lily, there were present the follow
ing persons:

He had enlarged his business, he cojd us, and wanted a bigger line than usual, but before making his se- lecsi0ns he wanted Us to give him ref srences. We expressed surprise at such an unheard of demand, but he said. My two brothers-in-Iaw have gone in with me, and they're very par ttcular as to whom they do business with So we sent him to our banks, and he came back, said we were all right, picked out a big line of goods, and in sixty days he busted We couldn't collect dollar.

Few people who know mistletoe only es desirable feature of Christmas decorations understand that the plant is parasite dangerous to the life of trees in the regions in which it grows. Ii is only question of time after mistletoe once begins to grow upon a tree before the tree itself will be killed. The parasite saps the life of the infected branches. Fortunately it is of slow growth taking years to de velop to large proportions. but when neglected it invariably ruins all trees 1t reaches The only method of exter- imitation is the cutting down of dis. eused trees.-EXchange

SPRING GAM Es.:

The games that we are playing at
our school this spring, are Flying
Dutchman, Blackman and Gray Wolf.
The boys mostly play marbles
:, The way that Flying Dutchman IS
played is as follows: All get in q ring
and take hold Of hands. Then
two run around the ring and hit two
persons hands that are standing to-
gether. Then the ones that they hit
run clear around the ring and the
pair that gets where the others run
from get to stay there and the pair
that lost have to run around and hit
somebody else. ~
Blackman is played with two bases
and stander The stander stands be-
tween the two bases and when the
people on the bases run from one base
to the other the stander trys to eaten
them. If he pats them three times on
the back they are caught and they help
him stand and so on until they are all
caught.
Gray Wolf is played something sins
liar to, Blackman, only they, play 1t by
running around building. There ",
one stander and one base The stander
stands in front Of the base and when
some of the players run around the
building the stander runs after them.
If he catches them he goes on the base
and the one he has just caught has to
be the stander. Our school will not be
out until Nays.

my OPINION OF THE SPECIAL
EDITION."

I think the Courier Junior is a very
good paper in several ways. | Will
now endeavor to mention some OF my
reasons why I think this to be true:
1t trains the children in the art OF
story and letter writing. And TINS
is one of the special arts of the world,
and one that everyone should cult
vate.
It forms many acquaintance for
the children, and l think every Child
as soon as he learns to write, hKes
to have friends to write to.
It also helps to keep the mind fresh
in geographical knowledge as in some
recent contests we have had about,
"a trip around the world and The
good things that. grow In our state, :"
and many other contests.
In a recent contest of Little 30
Peep" several children showed their
skill in poetical sayings.
I think l have given enough rea-
sons for this time, but there are
many other reasons too numerous
to mention.
Wishing the Junior as much sue
cess in the future as it. has had In the
past, remain,
