Catarrhal DEAFNESS CaBno be Cured
by local applications, as they canno,
reach the diseased portion, of the ear.
There is On.y one way To cure deafness,
and that is by constitutional remedies,
Deafness IS caused by an inHamed con-
ditionof the mucous lining of the Eusta-
chan Tube. When this tube Is inflamed
you have rambling sound or imperfect
hearing, and when il Is entirely closed,
Deafness is the result, and unless the in
flammation can be taken out and the
tube restored to its normal condition
hearing will be destroyed forever. Many
cases CT deafness are caused by Catarrh
which is an infiam9d condition of the
mucous surfaces. Halls Catarrh Cure
acts through the blood on the mucous
surfaces of the system.
We will give One Hundred Dollars fol-
any case OF Catarrhal Deafness that can
not be cured by Halls Th Cure.

Ira and Julia Brown, one of a family

Few years spent IN Pennsylvania, she
has made her home here the greater
part of the time. After the death
OF her husband ten years ago she
went to live with her son. Charles B.
Goodenough at Lake Park and re-
manned there until coming to her
daughters about five weeks ago.

she was brought to Newport that
the change might do her good, but

thought that there might be help for
her and everything possible was done
that she might recover AT home she
was biven the best care and many
physicians were consulted, but there
was no remedy.
She was a womman of most un-
selfish disposition and her life was
full of kind deeds. She lived for the
hely she might give to family friends
and to the suffering and needy. She
was member of the Baptist church.
