Deafness Caunot be Cured

by local applications as they canot
reach the diseased portion of the
ear. There is only one way to cure
deafness. and that is by consti-
tutionaI remedies. Deafness is
caused by an lnfamed condition of
the mucous lining of the Eustachian
Tube. When this tube is inflamed
you have rumbling sound or
imperfect hearing and when it is
entirely closed, Deafness is the
result unless the inflmation 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 Catarrah,
which is nothing but an inflamed
condition of the ~ucous surfaces.

NEW YORK, June 23.-Speaking

cussed currency problems with espe-
cial attention to the national meme
tary commission reform plans. The
president first reviewed the disturb
ances to which the country has been
subjected owning to frequent agita-
tions over the currency banking plan.
The need of drastic reform was en-
phasized and the president continued:

the commission. has correctly stated
that a central bank In this country
would be impossible for political
and economic reasons. The people
Of the country would be unwilling
TO trust to any private banking or
ganization such enormous control as
must be vested In an agency which
is TO decide as to the concentration
OF cash reserves, and which is to de-
eide upon and provide for the neces-
sary increase and decrease OF bank
note currency as well as TO regulate
the liquidation Of commercial paper

out the country. He proposes and
