SCHOOL NEWS

serious epidemic of measles in the

quite ill.

has been invited to every home in her
district at least twice, ., so far, this

dinner with Mr. and Mrs. Ed. Flattow;
Saturday ' afternoon was spent with
the Kesterson family, who live in the
little cabin across from Anderson's.
Saturday evening supper, at the An-
dreson home; Saturday, night and
Sunday breakfast at Lundeen's. Sun
day dinner at Max Woenche's; Sun
day afternoon, was spent at the Hasel-
wander home: and supper was served
for her at the Sitz home! Quite an

Catarrhal Deafness Cannot B Cured
by local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
There is only one way to cure catar
rhal deafness and that is by a con
stitutional remedy. Catarrhal Deaf
ness is caused by an inflamed condi
tion of the mucous, lining of the Eu
stachian Tube..- When this tube is in
flamed you have a rumbling sound or
imperfect hearing, and when it is en
tirely closed, Deafness Is the result, '
Unless the inlfammation can be re-
duced and this tube restored to its
normal condition, hearing will be des
troyed forever. Many cases of deaf
ness are caused by catarrh, which is
an Inflamed condition of the mucous
surfaces. Hall's Cattarrh Medicine
acts through the blood on' the mac-:
ous surfaces of the system.
We will give One Hundred Dollars
for any case of Catarrhal Deafness
that cannot be cured by Hall's Ca
tarrah Medicine. Circulars; free. All
