RUSSIAN CLAIMS OF HALTINC

London. July !, 1909 P. M.-Petro-
grad claims that distinct check has
been given the Austro- Hungarians
near krasnik, in southern Russian
Poland, where the invaders are threat
ening one of the most important rail-
road connections with Warsaw This
claim directly contradicts the Vienna
official report that the Russians have
suffered a defeat in this section. The
Russian and Austro- German reports,
however. agree that quiet prevails
along the remainder of the Eastern
front where for the first time in sew
eral weeks, the Austro- German armies
have ceased to win daily successes.

Deafness Cannot re 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
innamed condition of the mucous lin
ing of the Eustachian Tube. When
this tube is inhamed you have a
rumbling sound or imperfect hearing,
and when it is entirely closed. Deaf
ness is the result, and unless the in
lammation can be taken out and this
tube restored to its normal condition,
hearing will be destroyed forever;
nine cases out of ten are caused by
