Deafnes. Cannot BE cured

by local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
There is only n way to cure deafness,
and that is by constitutional remedies.
Deafness is caused by an inflamed ron
dition of the mucous lining of the
Eustachian Tube. When this tube is
inflamed you have rumbling sound or
imperfect hearing, and when it is closed
Deafness is the result, and unless the
Inflammation can be taken out and this
tube restored to it's normal condition,
hearing will be destroyed forever; nine
cases out often are caused by atarra b,
which is nothing but an inffamed con-
dition of the mucous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars for any
case of Deafness tcaused by catarrh) that can
not be cured by Halls Catarrh Cure. Send
for circulars, free.

1t happens in the greatest and
most spectacular dance hall
scene that has ever been project
ed OH the screen. Men in the ev-
eryday walk of life sometimes get
so anxious about the contents of
bottle that they refuse to use
the opener for the patent top and
Jam it in the crack of the door,
but r.. A. Walsh, the director OF
this gigantic spectacle, has re-
called in a single touch the rock
lessness OF the men of The min
ing camp days.
I The old test of a regular army
soldiers teeth was not to bite
bareback, but to pull a bulle>
from Springfield AS cartridge
with his teeth. And the ole
Western test of toughness was tt
bite the patent top off a beef
bottle.

By Briggs

The closeness of the struggle for

tween the Chicago and Boston clubs
has focused the attention of the base
ball fans upon the struggle for PEN

While there is wide divergence CT
opinion regarding the ultimate win.
ner of the flag with its attendant par
ticipation In the worlds series, II 10
conceded that the battle for first place
will be fought out by the While So1
and tho Red Sox.
At the present time the margin OF
advantage between the two teams Is
SO slight that the loss Of a game or
two while the other club Is winning
Is likely to cause shifting of places
and the resultant strain will surely be
felt by both combinations II tho race
continues with 80 slight a leeway for
another few weeks. Under tho cir
cumstances II Is not unexpected that
the adherents OF the rival teams
should predict that the other will be
Of the daily effort to hold the pace.
The situation is being considered
from every angle by tho volunteer
boards of strategy with constant ref
erence to the skill and ability Of pitch
ing stans. hitting, outhelds and all
the other forms OF argumentative am
munition used In baseball tanning.
With due allowance for accidents and
other untoward possibilities. II would
appear that the two clubs arc com
paratively evenly matched and that
the answer regarding the winner must
be sought in the final days of the race
