M town is always judged by its
general appearence. A few hun
dred dollars spent in cleaning un

houses would greatly add to the

saving to the property owner.
No amount of money spent in
any other way would add as
much value as th* painting of
all the houses and fences.

place, went to Atlanta last Mon
day and come back on train on

IHE above picture of the
man and fish is the trade
mark of Scott’s Emulsion,
and is the synonym for
strength and purity. It is sold
in almost all the ciyilized coun
tries of the globe.
If the cod fish became extinct
it would be a world-wide calam
ity, because the oil that comes
from its liver surpasses all other
fats in nourishing and life-giving
properties. Thirty years ago
the proprietors of Scott’s Emu]-
sion found away of preparing
cod liver oil so that everyone cai
take it and get the full value d)
the oil without the objectionabl
taste. Scott’s Emulsion is th»
best thing in the world for weak
backward children, thin, delicate
people, and ad conditions oi
wasting and lost strength.

Deafness Cannot Be Cured
>y local applications, as they
annot reach the diseased portion
f the ear. There is only one way
■o cure deafness, and that is by
constitional remedies. Deafness
is caused by an inflamed condi
tion of the mucouslining of the
Eustachian Tube. When this
tube is inflamed you have a rum
bling sound or imperfect hearing,
and when it is entirley closed, |
Deafness is the result, and unless :
the inflammation can be taken ’
out and this tube restored to its 1
norma condition, hearing will be
destroyd forever; nine cases out
of ten are caused by Catarrh,
which is nothing but airi:*fiamed
condition of the mucous surt&ce.
We will give One Hundred
Dollars for any Case of Deafness
caused by catarrh) that cannot
re cured by Hall’s Catarrh Cure
