Deafness Cannot Be Cured by local applications, as they cannot reach the diseased portion of the ear. There is only one way to cure deaf ness, and that is by constitutional remedies. Deafness is caused by an inflamed conditon of the mucous lin ing of the Eustachian Tube. When this tube is inflamed you have a rum bling sound or imperfect hearing, and when it is entirely closed. Deafness is the result, and unless the inflam mation can be taken out and this tube restored to Its normal condition, hear ing will be destroyed forever; nine cases out of ten are caused by Ca tarrh, which Is nothing but an in flamed conditon of the mucous sur faces. We will give One Hundred Dollars fer any case of deafness (caused by ca tarrh) that cannot be cured by Hall's Catarrh Cure. Send for circulars free. F. J. CHENEY It CO., Toledo, O.

NO SMALLPOX IN MILLS. Only Case Was That of Wife of Watch man at Clackamas Heights. There was a report current on the streets Monday that smallpox had broken out in the woolen mills of the Oregon City Manufacturing Company, but investigation has proven the re port to be without apparent founda tion.

(Editor the Courier.) Without any desire pnter Intn anv controversy over the affairs of the Co-operative store, I wish, in Justice to Mr. junKin, to say that the statement published In your Issue of January 10th and reflecting Mr. Junkin's honesty, is entirely wrong. For the seven months I was man ager of the store. I settled with Mr. Junkin each month and know posi tively that his bills were either taken out of, his wages each month or paid by personal check, which his voucners 111 show. The statement that Mr. Junkin may know where the profit went Is too foolish to be considered. As far as my honesty Is concerned, will leave that to the people with whom I have done business for the last eight years. Respectfully, J. A. MCGLASHAN. Suit to Determine Owner of $700.

First Child Born In That Town Is Pre sented With a Town Lot. In the office of County Recorder Ramsby, last week, was filed a deed transferring lot 4, block 2, First Ad dition to Estacada, to Lucy Adaline Livingstone, to be held in trust for William H. Livingstone, until he shall reach the age of majority. Behind the transfer lies the story of the birth of young Livingstone, who came into the world September 21, 1904, at Es tacada, not long after the town was Incorporated. G. W. Morrow was president, and A. F. Campbell, secre tary, of the Oregon Water Power Townslte Company, and they conclud ed that It would be a graceful act to give to the first child born in Esta cada a lot of ground from the tracts they were developing, and on Decem ber 8, 1904, they executed the deed to the boy's mother, and who sent it to the Clackamas County Recorder of Conveyances, but neglected to send the filing fee until last week, when it was placed oh record. Stomach Trouble Cured. If you hava any trouble with your stomach you should take Chamber lain's Stomach and Liver Tablets. Mr. J. P. Klote, of Edina, Mo., says: "I have used a great many different med icines for stomach trouble, but find Chamberlain's Stomach and Liver Tablets more beneficial than any other remedy I ever used."

There are 375 acres in the tract. The buyer will transfer the property to a syndicate and the tract will be platted and placed on the market. WHAT IS MORE BEAUTIFUL THAN MOTHEll LOVE? A mother's worries are many. She sometimes forgets her own bodily dis comforts because of her overpoworlng love for the child. She becomes broken down, sleepless, nervous, irritable and feels tired from morning until night. Many mothors of experience can toll you that at such a time they have been re lieved, benefited and strengthened and put Into proper health by taking a pre scription which their mothers had told them was the only woman's tonto to be taken at such times.' Dr. Pierce's Fa vorite Prescription has enjoyed an envi able reputation for over a third of a cen tury. In all that time it has sold more largely In the United States than any other tonic for woman's needs, and to day its sales are greater than ever. In favor of Dr. Pierce's medicines is the frank, confiding, open, honest statement of their full composition, fetvlng evory In gredient In plain English, without f oar of luccesstul criticism and with confidence that the good sense of the afflicted will lead them to appreciate this honorable manner of confiding to them what they are taking Into their stomachs when miking use of these medicines. AL0OHOLI0 TONICS. A great many women feeling the need of a tonlo take a cocktail, whisky, or what is Just as bad, some widely adver tised compound, containing a large per cental of alcohol. Doctor Pierce's medicines are guaranteed to be entirely free from alcohol or narcotics mode of roots which cannot harm the most deli cate system but have a wholesome, llfo glvlng, tonic-effect upon the system. Tonics made largely of alcohol Interfere with the digestion of certain foods, and as doses Increase the alcohol absorbed gets Into the blood and shrinks the red blood corpuscles. As the blood feeds the nerves the nerves get Improper nourishment and the mother becomes nervous. As the nerves sudor so does the skin. Better stick to a health-giving tonlo that has In the past third of a century sold mors widely than any other. OPKH AS THE DAT. What Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescrip tion Is made of. Its Ingredients are: Golden Seal root, Lady's Slippitr root, Black Cohosh root, Unicorn root, Blue Cohosh root, Chemically Pure Glycerine. Ilobart A. Hro, M. D., University of Pa., says of Golden Seal "Good In all catarrhal conditions, as uterine catarrh, leucorrhoja, etc." Prof. John King In the American Dispensatory says of Black Cohosh root another Important Ingre dient In "Favorite Prescription:" "By Its special affinity for the female organs, It Is an efficient agont In suppression, In dys menorrhea It la surpiuKed by no other drug, balng of grnatetit utility In Irrita tive and congestive conditions of the appendages, characterized by dragging pains, etc. Prof. King says of Unicorn root, "have found this plant to possess a docldedly beneflcal Influence in cases of lassitude with we&knoss or dull pain In the renal, or lumbosacral (small of the back) region. It Is one of our moat valuable agents, acting as a uterine tonic, and gradually removing abnormal conditions, while at the same time It Imparts tone and vigor to the reproductive organs. Hence, it Is much used In Icucorrhaea, ameiunrhaa, dytmerwrrhwa. A PARTICULAB PHASB ' removed by It Is the Irritability and de spondency that often attends these troub les. In those cases In which there Is pelvlce fullness, the aching, bearing down organs feel at If they would fall out of the body. Its action hers Is very decided." Dr. Pleree's Pleasant Pellets cure bili ousness, sick and bilious headache, diz ziness, costlveness, or constipation of the bowsls, loss of appetite, coated tongue, sour stomach, windy belchlngs, "heart burn." pain and distress after eating, and kindred derangements of the liver, stomach and bowels. Persons subjected to any of these troubles should never be without a-vial of the "Pleasant Pellets at hand. In proof of their superior excellence It can truthfully be said that they are always adopted as a household remedy after tne first trial. One little "Pellet Is a laxative, two are cathartic. They regulate, Invigorate and cleanse the liver, stomach and bowels. As a "dinner pill," to promote digestion, take one each day. To relieve the distress arlBing from overeating, nothing equals one of these little "PellnU." They're tiny, ingnr-coatod, antl-nlllnns granules, scarcely larger than mustard seeds.

The de lay of the Senate In confirming Schue bel gives people a chance to express their opinion of the practical work ings of the system of "public office a private snap" system of politics. That the appointment was made as the re sult of a pre-election deal It would be useless for any of the parties con cerned to deny. Those of us who know Schuebel know that selfishness is his ruling passion and that he would no more think of making a political campaign without hope of reward than ' of well, comparison fails to do jus tice to the subject. The experience of the majority of the Congressional del egation and of the State Grange com mittee proves that Bourne cares noth ing for popular opinion now, so the remaining alternative for those of us w ho object to political treachery as a basis of political promotion and to mediocrity in high places should del uge Fulton, Hawley and Ellis with letters showing the real opinion of the people regarding the consumma tion of this deal.
