Catarrhal Deafness Cannot Be Cured

Catarrhal Deafness Cannot Be Cured
by local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
There is only way to cure catarrhal
deafness, and that is by constitution
al remedy. Catarrhal Deafness is
caused by an infamed condition of the
mucous lining Of the Eustachian Tube.
When this tube is inflamed YOU have
a rumbling sound or imperfect hear
ing, and when it 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 deafness are caused by
catarrh, which is an inhamed condi-
ton OF the mucous surfaces. Halls
Catarrh Medicine acts through the
blood on the mucous 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

LOND0N's NARROW ESCAPE
News Agency Says Oxford Circus
Miqht Have Caved In.

London has just narrowly escaped a
great peril, the possible caving in Of
Oxford Circus, the shopping center Of
the West End, says a story circulated
by news agency. The danger Of the
disaster was known only to contrac
tors and workers underground. They
were altering an exit from the oxford
Circus tube station so as to make an
entrance into business building
Of little unknown tributary of the
Thames river which was covered over
when Regent street was made.
They also found, to their amaze
ment and CONSERVATION, that they were
meeting the direct Zines of vibra-
tion" Of the two underground tubes,
the Central London and the Bakerloo
The news agency says that they
realized that If the excavations con-
tinued the whole of Oxford Circus
might be literally precipitated under
ground. There were perilous days and
laborious nights occupied in under
plnning the buildings above ground
and overcoming the side pressure
which was being felt.
In place of the shifting sands of the
old river bed there was constructed
a retaining wall of cement, which, 1t
is declared, has made the great shop
ping center more secure than at any
time since the river flowed down the
slopes of the present Regent street
