Deafness Cannot Be Cured

by local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
There is only one way to cure deaf
ness, and that is by constitutional
remedies. Deafness is caused by an
infiamed condition of the mucous lin
ing of the Eustachian Tube. When
this tube is infiamed you have rum
bling sound or imperfect hearing and
when it is entirely closed, Deafness
is the result, and unless the inf1am-
nation can be taken out and this
tube restored TO its normal condition,
hearing will be destroyed forever;
nine cases out of every ten are caused
by Catarrh, which is nothing but an
infiamed condition of the mucous sur
faces.
We win give One Hundred Dollars
for any case of Deafness Caused by
catarrh) that cannot be cured by

Use for Canal Machinery

Hutchinson, Kansas, February q
The United States government is TO
be asked to bring parts of the canal
digging equipment and forces from
Panama, when the big canal is COM
pleted, to dig ditch through western
Kansas and Nebraska.
J. G. Hooper, a prominent land
owner and liveStockman of Ness coun-
ty, and president of the Citizens
National Bank of Ness City, is at the
head of the movement which is being
organized throughout western Kan
and Nebraska to bring this about.
Congressman George A. NeeIey has
promised to do all he can to get an ap-
preparation for the purpose, and al
ready has prepared bill providing
for S50,0OO appropriation to investi-
gate.
Mr.. Hooper's plan is to construct a
canal or big ditch extending from the
Black Hills in South Dakota southerly
through the western parts of Nebras-
.ka and Kansas and terminating in
the Cimarron river in northwestern
Oklahoma.
A system of storage basins and later
ais would send the surplus waters
that now produce the annual inunda-
tions in the valleys of the Missouri,
Platte, Kaw, Arkansas and other
rivers down through a section of
these states needing this water for
irrigation
The canal suggested by Mr. Hooper
would be from 600 to 1000 miles long.
A system of damming the draws,
creeks and ravines, and storage of
water would accompany the general
project Stock Yards Daily Journal.
