he Did All He Could

Mr.. William Henson, being ac-
quainted with the lair of a large
grounding, went out on the first day
of February, smoked his hog ship out
ad deliberately killed him. But it
did no good. There we're other
ground-hogs and they saw their shad-
ows early on Sunday morning, and
could have seen them at any hour of
the day.
Early the next morning the predic-
ton was fulfilled; for the snow was
falling and Winter had commenced
in earnest. Even this day, not
withstanding the verifcation, or the
supposed verifcation of this sign has
been observed for about 200 years,
there are still some doubling
Thomases who boldly proclaim that
the ground-how knows nothing about
the weather. The probability is that
the sign will be observed as long as
Santa Claus makes his annual visits
to the homes of the children.

A Useful Invention

Mr.. M. ]. Bushong, formerly OF
this county, but now resident OF
Manassas, was granted patent. Dec.
81, 1912, for farm tractor. which 1t
is thought, will revolutionize the
tractor trade Instead of having
four wheels as the Old tractors have,
his machine has but two. Instead OF
having two men to operate the tractor
and the implement which it is draw
ing, this invention re tires out one to
operate both.
The Western Fiduciary Company,
of Denver, Colo, says OF Mr.. Bush
ong's patent: "From commercial
standpoint the invention is believed
to be worthy of investment to a large
degree and a manufact uring enter
prise based upon it is certain to pro-
duce extensive profit if exploited by
men who have pcoper business quail
fcations 1t can be sold more cheap
ly and will yield better results than
anything her etofore offered the pub
lie. 1t is simple in its construction
and inexpensive in its Makeup"

Cannot he Cured

by local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion OF the ear.
There is only one way to cure deaf
ness, aud that is by constitutional
remedies. Deafness is caused by an
ipflamed condition of the mucous
lining of the Eustachian Tube. When
this tube Is infamed you have rum
bling sound or imperfect hearing, and
when it is entirely closed, Deafness is
the result, and unless the lnfamma-
tisn can be taxen out and this tube
restored to its normal condition,
hearing will be destroyed forever;
nine cases out of ten are caused by
Catarrh, which is nothing but an in
famed condition OF the mucous sur
faces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars
for any of Deafness (caused by ca
