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 infamed con-
dition of the mucous lining of the Eus-
tachian Tube. When this tube is in
famed you have d rumbling sound or
imperfect hearing, and when it is en-
tirely closed, Deafness is the result,
and unless the inflammation can be
taken out and this tube restored to its
normal condition, hearing will be des-
trOyed forever; nine cases out of ten
are caused by catarrh, which is nothing
but an infamed condition of the mucous
surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars
for any case of Deafness (caused by
catarrh) that cannot be cured by Hall S
Catarrh Cure. Send for circulars free.

Lightning, the dread demon

intent only upon spreading death
has been metamorphosed into an
errand-boy and brings us ill

Inventive genius has multiplied
the power of a human arm and
supplied the masses with COM
forts of which the rich did not
dare to dream a few centuries
ago. Science is ferreting out
the hidden causes of disease and
teaching us how to prolong life.
In every line. except in the line
of character-building, the world
seems to have been made over,
but the marvellous changes by
which old things have become
new only emphasize the fact that
man, too, must be born again,
while they show how impotent
are material things to touch the
soul of man and tronsform him
into a spiritual being. Where

The atheist and the materialist
must confess that man ought to
be able to produce a better book
than man. unaided, could have
produced in any previous age.
The fact that they have tried,
time and time again, only to fail

earnestness that is pathetic-they
have employed in the worship of

fossil and decaying skeletons
that are strewn around the house
to absorb their thoughts to the

and the light that emanates from
