are no longer compelled to drag the
old frame gate back and forth, but
find instead this gate which very
properly guards the entrance to the
last resting place of many of those
whose remains have been sleeping
beneath its consecrated grounds for
centuries. Certainly the brick posts

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, and that is by a
constitutional remedy. Catarrhal
Deafness is caused by an inf1amed
condition of the mucous lining OF the
Eustachian Tube. When this tube is
inf1amed you have a rumbling sound
or imperfect hearing, and when it is
entirely closed, DeafD ess is the re-
suit. 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 mu-
cous surfaces. Halls Catarrh Medi-
cine acts thru the blood on the mu-
cous surfaces Of the system.
We will give One Hundred Dollars
for any case Of Catarrhal Deafness
that cannot be cured by Halls Ca
tarrh Medicine. Circulars free. All

Sour stomach.

This is mild form of indigestion.
1t is usually brought on by eating
too rapidly or too much, or Of food
not suited to your digestive organs.
If you will eat slowly, masticate
your food thoroughly, eat but little
meat and none at all for supper, you
will more than likely avoid the sour
stomach without taking any medicine
whatever. When you have sour
stomach, take one of Chamberlain's
Tablets to aid digestion.-Adv.
