Catarrhal Deafness Cannot Be Cured

BY local applications, as they
cannot reach the diseased portion
of the ear. There is only one
way to cure catarrhal deafness,
AMI that is by a constitutional
remedy. Catarrhal Deafness is
caused by an intlamed condition
of the mucous lining of the
Enstachian Tube. When this
tube is inflamed you have u
rumbling sound or imperfect
hearing, and when it is entirely
closed, Deafness is the result.
Unless the Inflammation can be
reduced and this tube restored to
it's normal condition, hearing
will be destroyed forever. Many
cases of deafness are caused by
catarrh, which is an inflamed
condition of the mucous surfaces.
Halls Catarrh Cure acts thru the
blood on the mucous surfaces of
the system.
We will give OneHundred Dol
lars, for any case of Catarrh Deaf
ness that cannot be cured by
Halls Catarrh Cure. Circulars

LET MELIVE OUT IN
THE COUNTRY.

Let me live out'in the country
Where the air is fresh and pure
And the fragrance from the flow
ers,
Seem to lure and welcome you.
Let me scan again the woodland
And the fields of growing grain
Like the sky so blue above me,
When there ism sign Of rain.
Let me pluck again the dalses,
Growing in the unkept fields,
Bowling to you as you pluck them
As thru them the "Zephyrso
a. steal.
Let me watch the dartingmartin
As he sweeps down on his prey.
And the cunning wren and spar
row.,
When they build their nests in
May.
Let me eat fried ham and chicken
Scrambled eggs and custard pie
So let me live out in the country,
And stay right there until / die.

One dark night three friends
were crossing a deep, dry ravine,
the banks of which were very
precipitous. AS the party had
been imbibing little too freely,
one of the three had to be assist
ed up the incline. When, think
ing him safe at the top his friends
turned him loose, he fell to the
bottom. He, lay very still, and
the other two supposing him Sc
verify injured, rushed down to
him. AS they leaned over to dis
cover his condition, the fallen one
exclaimed: ''For Gods sake
