Deafness Cannot BE Cured

by local applications, as they cannot
reGch 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
inllamed condition Of the mucous lin
ing of the Eustachian tube. When
this tube is innamed you have rum
bling sound or imperfect hearing, and
when it is entirely closed, deafness is
the result, and unless the inhamma-
ton can be taken out and this tube
restored to its normal condition,
hearing will be destroyed forever;
nine cases out Of ten are caused hy
catarrh, which Is nothing but an in
named condition of the mucous sur
faces.

for any case of deafness Caused by

Laurens, Feb. 27.-Pleading with
the authorities to let him go back
to his mountain home, eight miles
above Walhalla, that he may admin
lister to the wants Of his sick and
lonely wife, alone in the hills with
the stock to feed and the crops to
plant, John Thomas Roper, convicted
as mOonshiner of the mountain
country and sentenced to serve six
months in the LaurenS county Jail.
says he will gladly return at the end
of the crop harvest season and serve
out his uneXpircd term of two months
if they will hut let him heed the pa
thetiC letters Of his wife in the noun
tain ,ountry. Roper las been in the

According to Jailcr Glynn, Roper
is a model prisoner, helps about the

courts to let moonshiners serve their
sentences after they have gone back
to their mountain homes and planted
their crops for spring. Their word is
usually 'law.' Ii moOnshiner
