Her ears will be large, but her head

And she will be big where her lungs

Her pin-bones will be level, with hips

And a barrel so big hold a ton in

You ask me what color? O, I don't

But she must have velvet skin and

At all the fairs I'll show to you
My Jersey heifer. She'll wm the blue.

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 catarrh
al deafness, and that is by a constitu
tional remedy. Catarrhal Deafness is
caused by an inflamed condition of
the mucous lining of the Eustachian
Tube When ths tube is inflamed
you have a rumbling sound or imper
fect hearing, and when it is entirely
closed, Deafness is the result Unless
the inflammation can be reduced and
thi tube restored to its normal con
dition, hearing will be destroyed for
ever . Many cases of deafness are
caused by catarrh, which is an in
flamed condtion of the mucous sur
faces. Hall's Catarrh Medicine acta
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 )0
cured by Hall's Catarrh Medicine. Cir
