There Is only one way to cure deafness and that is by constitutional remedies, Deafness is caused by an inhamed con dition of the mucous lining of the EustaChtan Tube. WheE this tube is tnfiamed you have a rumbling sound or imperfect hearing, and when 1t is en- tirely closed deafness is the result, and unless the inflammation can be taken out and thls tube restored to its nor mai condition hearing will be destroyed forever; nine cases out of ten are caused by CataTrh, which is nothing but an infamed condition of the mu- cOus surfaces.

good citizens out of convicts. She urged the obilition of contract systems in jails and prisons and cited New Haven jail as an example of the con tract system which is used to bad eff feet. Many of those in our jails are not actual criminals but drunkards Of the 10000 persons in the jails and prisons of Connecticut, one-half are confined for drunkenness. Instead of sending such persons to jail, establish inebriety farms where men can be kept for long terms and their wages given to support their families, as their wives and children often become pub lie charges. It is dangerous to pur- chase prison-made goods on account of prisoners often being infected with contagious diseases.

The annual town election of Vest erly will be held the first Tuesday in June, and indications are that the present town officers will be re-elect- ed practically without opposition. The present board of town officers are all republicans and 1t is believed they will receive united party support in caucus, while democratic nominations in Westerly are merely a matter of form, as that party is practically with out organization, and the party is held together by faithful few. Following is a list of the offices to be filled by
 ballot and the present incumbents:
 George B. PendletOn, moderator: Ev-
 erett E. Whipple, town clerk; William l.. Clarke, Albert H. Langworthy, C. Clarence Maxson, Wayland A. Saun
 deTs, William Culley, Maurice w Flynn, John T. Edmond. councilman:
 James M- Pendleton, town treasurer; one assessor; Ellery Barber, Overseer
 of the poor; school committeeman.
 The offices to be filled by the incom- ing council are: Judge of probate
 town sergeant, auctiOneers, fence viewers, field drivers, pound keepers. surveyors of lumber, coroner, cOrdar of wood, sealer of weights and meas ureS, peTintendent of health. inspec- tor of milk, surveyor of land, measur-
 CTS of grain, cOnstables, gaugers of casks, policemen, sealer of leather. packers of fish, weighers of coal and other merchandise, officer to care for
 burial of deceased soldiers, inspector of buildings.
 The republican town committee will soon hold a session to prepare for the June election, and, as customatry, will recommend to the caucus candidates for town officers to be banoted for on election day. There is vague ru- nor that some of the committeeman are in favor of emitting from the rec ommendauon the name of the oldest and most prominent member of the town council, but it is believed that such action would not receive caucus approval

storm, which cleared the atmosphere.
Many farmers are in the midst of

deter operations, but to some extent
cause damage. High winds accom-

limbs of trees and telephone and cleo
