A Mother's Loss. The Red Cross Society in Portland has received from Captain Wells, at Manila, a letter written to him by Mrs. .Jennie Field, dated Centaur Station, Mo.. Aug. 15th, as follows : "Would you be kind enough to in form me if my boy, William Field, is etill in your company ? I have not heard fnun him pi nee just before his regiment left for Manila, and now it is important that I should hear what he intends to ' do in regard to our future home before I make any definite arrangements for the winter." Letters have been written from this city t Mrs. Field, and papers sent which contained notices of the death of hereon, fur whom the mother made such inqui ry. She no doubt fully realizes by this time fiat her home for the winter must be made without reference to her boy, , wnosB presence cannot cheer it, for he h parsed to that home where the sea- e 'no do not affect him, but where is one continual spring.

Deafness Cannot be Cored by local applications, as they cannot reach the diseased portion of the ear There is only one way to cure deafness and that is by constitutional remedies. Deafness is caused by an inflamed con dition of the mucous lining of the Eus tachian 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, and unless the inflammation can be taken out and this tube restored to its normal condition, hearing will be destroyed for- ever; nine cases out of tea are caused by catarrh, which is nothing but an in flamed condition of the mucous sur faces. We will give One Hundred Dollars for any case of Deafness (caused by catarrh) that cannot be cured by Hall's Catarrh' Cure. Send for circulars ; free. . F. J. Cheney & Co., Toledo, O.
