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 cartarr-
hal deafness, and that is by constitu-
ional remedy. Catarrhal Deafness is
caused by an inflamed condition of the
mucous lining of the Eustachian Tubes
When this tube inflamed you have a
rumbling sound or imperfect hearing,
and when it is entirely closed, Deafness
is the result. Unless the inflammation
can be reduced and this tube to its nor
NAL condition, hearing will be destroyed
forever. Many cases of deafness are
caused by catarrh, which is an infiamed
condition of the mucous surfaces.
Halls Catarrh Medicine acts thru the
blood on the mucous surfaces of the
system.
We will give One Hundred Dollars for
any case of Catarrah Peafness that can
not be cured by Halls Catarrh Medi

Notice Of Change of Policy Of this
Paper Regarding Writ-Ups, Etc.

Notice is hereby given by the
manager of this paper, that be-
ginning with August Ist there
will be charge on all matter sent
here for publication except purely
news.
All papers. Obituaries. Pro-
grams. Resolutions. Essays, Ser
mons. Personal Write-ups. etc.
There will be charge of 81 90
for the above named for Is lines
and all articles containing mere
than IS type lines Ioc will be
charged for every additional line.
This does not apply to news o
the churches.
We are compelled to do this for
financial protection. Our more
than 3 years of experience in
the newspaper world has taught
US that we have been giving
away hundaeds OF dolIrrs annually
paying for setting type for such
things in which the general public
is not interested ia. and most of
the time the persons writing are
not subscribers and not Interested
in and have no Race pride or
Race Loyalty. they make long
and loud speeches to the galleries,
preach great sermons and write
fine papers on patronizing Race
enterprises and that . is as far :, it
goes with them. as nine times out
ten they give their job work what
little they have. to other persons
other than race papers and are
withholding the support from the
men Who are fighting mob and
lynch law and the many other in-
equalities and evils which contain
mate the race fifty two weeks in
the year. while these would be
race lovers find excuses in giving
their work to-others claiming they
are too high priced or the work Is
inferior to others. when at the
same time these same papers that
they refuse to let do theirs are do
ing work for Negroes who do not
pose as Race leaders, and toe,
these same race papers are doing
job work for some OF best busi-
ness firms and individuals OF the
white race. The papers are great
so long as they boost this class OF
individuals for naught and let him
help the fellow who does not need
his financial assistance. There
seems too much racial jealousy
and envy among the majority
OF our great leaders and that ac-
connts for slow progress along
race enterprises,
Therefore we have taken the
matter Under careful advisement
and have concluded to place a
small charge on all matter except
purely news. All Associationai.
Conventional matter we expect
the officers OF the Bodies to take
care OF in a more Systematic way
hereafter at quarterly and annual
meeting. Our experience at the
meetings in the past forces us to
make this request.
No one who believes in a lust
compensation for honest work
will object to this requirement.
