Deafness Cannot Be Cured.
By local applications, a■: fhey cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
There is only one way to cure deafness,
and that is by constitutional remedies. I
Deafness is caused by an inflamed con
dition of the mucous lining of the Eus
tachian Tube. When this tube gets
inflamed j'ou have a rumbling sound
or imperfect hearing, and when it is
entirely closed deafness is the result,
and unless the inflammation can be
taken out and this tube restored to its
norma condition, hearing will be des
troyed forever, nine cases oufof ten
are caused by catarrh, which is noth
ing but an inflamed condition of the
mucous surfaces.
We will'give One Hundred Dollars j
for any case of Deafness (caused by i
catarrh) that can not be cured by Hall's j
Catarrh Cure. Send for circulars, 1
free. F. J. Cheney & Cos., Toledo, O.

THE NEWS FROM LAX-
I Macom is Getting Ready for the
Possnm Hunt with Miss
Tattler.
1
Mr. Howell has got his gins
j started now and Lax is alive with
j folks bringing cotton in to be gin
| ned. The cotton crop in this sec
tion is very short, but the farmers
are rapidly gathering what they
have made during tin’s fine weather.
Our school here will close on next
j Friday, at the end of a three months
I term. We had to stop a month
| short on account of so many of the
(children being needed in the cotton
I picking.
) Miss Ella Boyd, our pleasant
little visitor for two weeks past left
us last Tuesday for Fitzgerald,
where she will spend a while with
her sister, Mrs. M. W. Howell.
All the time Miss Ella was with us,
Hiram Paulk seemed to be soaring
away up in the ethereal heights of
the seventh Heaven until he return
ed from Hebron big meeting and
found her other fellow here ; then
he soon learned that he was not
“The only pebble on the beach.”
He ordered, at once, from J. Lynn
& Cos, a hunk of Van-Stan-Strote
man wherewith to stick back the
pieces of his little broken heart.
He may recover, but he’ll never
look any how.
The infant child of Mr. and Mrs.
Charlie Woolard has been very sick
this week but is improving at pre
sent.
Mrs. A. T. Howell visited her
parents near Willacoochee yester
day. Ye scribe, spent Saturday
with her Grandmother and Aunt,
Nancy Paulk. John Tucker went
fishing Saturday, and caught a
quarters worth of snekers. John
suffers some uneasiness just at pre
sent, that he may have to go to the
Legislature yet.
Mr. Dan W. Paulk passed through
Lax Saturday ei: route to Ocilla,
thence to Abbeville, where lie ex
pects to re-enter shcool.
As “Macom” drives about over
the contry roads now, she views
with pleasure the persimmon trees
red with fruit in the fields here and
there, and is just in ecstacies over
the possum hunt she and Miss
Tattler are to take soon. Macom’s
last possum hunt turned out at the
end of the chase to be a polecat
hunt.
Air. Robert Lott, the clever sales
man of the Lott & Lewis Grocery
Cos. of Brunswick was on his usual
rounds last week and spent Tuesday
night with us.
Air. Qsa Harper and Mr. J. M.
Dent seem to think more and more
of eacli other. They are together
(at Lax) most every Sunday.
“AIACOM.”
Card of Thanks.
My thanks are due and hereby
gratefully tendered to the good
people of Douglas, who so kindly
and faithfully ministered to my
dear husband during his last illness,
1 shall ever remember their sympa
thy and kindness with gratitude.
Respectfully,

M. Tanner,’ F. Willis Dart,

Merchant’s and Farmer’s Warehouse.
The farmers of the county should
remember that the above organiza
tion was formed for their benefit,
and should give it their support.
If you need money and don’t care
to sell at present prices bring in
the cotton, store it, and take your
receipts to the Bank where money
will be advanced you at reasonable
rates. The Breeze advises you to
do this, as cents for short cot
ton and a high price for long cotton
is in sight, and the farmer deserves
all the profits on the sweat of his
brow, the toil of his children artd
the money he is compelled to pay
for labor. /"

Pearson, Ga., Sept. 36.—As
Miss Tattler says that the least said
!is often the easiest mended, and
! we will not say why we didn’t
- write to you last week.
Rev. S. M. Drawdy filled his
j regular appointment last Saturday
(and Sunday at Union Hill church,
jHe delivered an excellent sermon
from Is. 1 : 18, “Let us reason to
jgether.” Yes, come let us reason
together. We would like very
j much for the party that miscon
strued our last letter to the Breeze
in regard to Mr. 11. Sears using
the jug in his campaign to look
through another pair of “specs.”
He must be wearing “political
specs” anyhow. But that is O. K.
we would advise Mrs. Sears to
make Mr. Sears some big pockets
to his trouserloons “as lie is sure
to have to “tout” our money.
Our Sunday school is progressing
nicely. As last Sunday was “Tem
perance Day” with our Sunday
school we were highly entertained
lor two or three hours with tem
perance songs, essays and recita
tions, showing the evils of strong
drink.
Mrs. Goeta of Goeta’s mill is
very sick with typhoid fever at this
writing.
Our friend and neighbor D. A.
Smith, who has recently gone in
to the mercantile business at Pear
son will move his family to town
in a few days.
The voters of this section say if
they should have occasion to go to
jail, they want Dave Ricketson to
carry them.
The Waycross District Confer
ence will he held with Union Hill
Congregational church the first
Sunday in October beginning
Wednesday night before.
The Homerville Baptist associ
ation will be held at Millwood on
the fourth Sunday in Oct. and we
understand that our Sunday School
convention, will he on the same
time. Hope the officials of the
convention will see fit to change it,
as the two places (McDonalds Mill
and Millwood) is only three miles
apart. E. T.

was pleasant and as they chatted
and “spooned” each other the
hours slipped away in short order.
Cupid, however, got in his work,
as the party broke up, and a young
gentleman said something low and
soft to a young lady she replied
“I reckon so, dear.” No other
casualties.
