Deafness Cannot Be Cured

by local applications. as they cannot reach
the diseased portion of the ear. There is
only one way to cure deafness, and that IS
by constitutional remedies. Deafness is
caused by an infamed condition OF the 1nu-
cons lining of the Eustachian Tube When
this tube is inf1amed you have a rumbling
sound or imperfect hearing, and when it Is
entirely closed, Deafness is the result, and
unless the Inflammation can be taken out
and this tube restored to it's normal condl-
zion, hearing will be destroyed forever; nine
cases out of ten caused by Catarrh,
which is nothing but inf1amed condition
Of the mucous surfaces.

AS announced elsewhere in this
issue, the proposition Of erecting
hospital in Ladysmith has again been
taken up and a strong effort will be
made to push the matter to a sue
cessful conclusion. The Sisters have
secured Messrs. Harry Ballou, F. l..
Hughes and R. M. Sensenbrenner as
a committee to take charge Of the
raising of funds and to supervise
the erection of the building. This
will insure an energetic prosecution
of the preliminary work and also
economy and efficiency in the hand
ling of the funds. The necessity Of
a hospital for Ladysmith is appar-
emit to all who give the least thought
to the matter. The proposition
should have general and generous
support from all, regardless of re-
Iigious utilization. All will be treat
ed alike at the hospital, an institu-
ton that will save thousands Of dol
lars to people of Rusk county and
vicinity and often lives that would
otherwise be lost on account of the
long journey to distant hospital.

Every Member Canvass.

The Every Member canvass of the
congregational, Methodist and First
Baptist churches which WAS carried on
Sunday, were very satisfactory as far
as can be judged by reports thus far
made. Tho Congregational church sent
ont 10 teams consisting of two persons
each and they reported that the pledges
Tor the local work were increased five
per cent and the pledges for the
henevolcnces were increased 40 per
cent over the year 1916.
The Methodist church sent out 10
teams, five Of men and five of wo-
men, who report that pledges were in
creasing rather than decreasing, and
that people seem to realize there are
many calls but feel that through il all
the church must be maintained at any
expense.
The First Baptist church sent out
:? teams of two persons each who
found the responses to the appeal very
readily met. About $4,000 was pledged
which will cover expenses and benevo-
lenceS. IT was said tn be the best
church canvass yet made
