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 constitution
al remedy Catarrhal Deafness is
caused by an infiamed condition OF the
mucous lining of the Eustachian Tube.
When this tube is infiamed you have
gumbling sound or imperfect hearing
and when Ii is entirely closed Deafness
Is the result. Unless the Inflammation
can be reduced and this tube restored
to its normal condition, hearing will be
destroyed forever. Many cases of deaf
ness are caused by catarrh, which is
an infiamed condition of the mucous
surfaces. Halls Catarrh Medicine acts
through the blood on the mucous sur
faces of the system.
We will give One Hundred Dollars
for any case of Catarrhal Deafness
that cannot be cured by Halls CRtarrh

Governor Milliken's announce

has created no great stir in republi-
can circles in Hancock county. II
has long been expected, and so lost
the element of surprise. Aside from
the prejudice against establishing a
third-term precedent. there is a
strong Parkhurst sentiment in this
county which the governor will find
it hard to overcome. Hancock

pretty solidly behind Governor Mil

Ellsworth needs new high school
building. That has been said so
many times that Ellsworth people
have. got callous to the appeal. They
nod affirmatively. and then talk
about something else. Much has
been said, the need recognized. but
nothing done. Now something is
going to be done. There is no need
of campaign of education as to the
need of a building: the inadequacy
OF the present building. with the
makeshift additions that have mere
