tribute TO R. n. BOND
Officers and Employees of Courthouse e
Presented Memorial TO the Widow

Mrs. II. H. Bond, widow of
the late sheriff of this county,
was presented with a beautiful
tribute to the memory of the
deceased yesterday. The oftic-
ers and employees of the court
house secured the services of a
Fargo artist to prepare beauti-
fully engrOssed resolutions of
coincidence and respect and
these were signed by the nine
teen county officers and EN-
ployes and appropriately fran
ed.
The tribute to the memory
Of Mr.. Bond is a work of art
and something that his family
may we'll cherish as a me1nento
of the high esteem in which
the late sheriff was held by
those who knew him best.

You will also find clerks to
wait on you experienced in
every other line but with little
knowledge of groceries. Again
in our up-to-date grocery, we
have things so arranged that
one man can put up more
orders than two can in a de-
partnent store, and as he
handles nothing else b II t
groceries he should know his
business.
The new member of this firm
Mr.. A. Q. J h II, is we'll
known here, having lived here
for fifteen years, so needs no in
PRODUCTION. He will devote all
his time to the business and we
know will add much to the bus
mess of The Sanitary Grocery.
We thank you very much for
the good patronage we have re-
ceived last month which puts
us in a better position to serve
you in the future.

anCe. He made this statement
following the victory for his
side in their contest against
making free wool part of the
democratic tariff plan as was
urged by Mr.. Bryan. He fell
into the error that many other
men have fallen victims to by
talking too much in the hour
OF temporary success.
Another decade will not have
passed before the men who
voted for the wool tariff will be
making apologies to the coun-
try. The tide is on for free
trade and removal of tariff
duties from the necessities of
the middle classes, as was
evidenced by President Taft S
speech in Chicago recently.
Old time republicans sat in
the hall listening to Mr.. Taft, $
words in support of free trade
with Canada and applauded as
heartily as they did the protec-
ton sentiments expressed by
the Mckinley following a few
years ago.
1t matters little what course
a few congressman take on this
question as tie rising tide in
favor of social Justice will soon
sweep away the last vestiye of
the selfish and ruinOus tariff

necessities Of the civil war.

Deafneaa 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 constitu-
tionai remedies. Deafness is caused BY an in
famed condition Of the mucous lining of the
eustachian tube. When this tube is infaned
you have a rumbiing sound or imperfect hearing,
and when il is entirely closed, deafness is the
result and unless the inflammation can be taken
out and this tube restored to its normal condition
the hearing will be destroyed forever; nine cases
out of ten this deafness is caused by Catarrh
which is nothing but an inlamed condition Of
the mucous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars for any case
of Deafness lcaused by catarrh) that cannot be
