There is i only one way to cure deafness, and that is by constitutional remedies. Deafness is ’ caused by an inflamed condition of the mucous lining <4 the Eustachian Tube. When this tube is inflamed you have a rumbling sound or imperfect hearing, and I when it is entirely closed, deafness is the result, and unless the inflammation can be taken out and this tube restored to its normal condition, hearing will be de stroyed forever; nine cases out of ten are caused by Catarrh, which is nothing but * an inflamed condition of the mucous sur ( faces.

It seems from tin. table that the circii a'ion >1 mom ■. bus increased 50 percent i-ime 1 "*>. --. -I . little over 25 per cent, since 'he fir-t of July. 1 896 Th* etat'-mei t sb. a- That on July 1, 1579 tl • m nut in circula ti<;n was SBIB 631 < e.i. Jul y 1 1889, $1 379 964 770, and n Apri; 1 1899 $1 927 846,942. For the pa«t three y-ara in our bis tory the figures show a remarkable in crease in the money in circulation On July 1 1896, the beginning of the new year, the amount in circulation was $1,509 725,200. By July 1, 1897, it reached $1,646,028,246, On July 1, 1898, it was $1,843 435,749, an increase for that year of $197,497 503, and at the beginning of the present month it was $1,927,846 942, an increase in the nine months of the present fiscal year of $85,411,193. The increase since July 1, 1896, has been at the rate of nearly half a million dollars fur each business day, and during the past year has averaged considerably more than half a million dollars for each business day. The per capita circulation on April 1, 1899, was the largest shown at that period of the year in the history of our country. At that date it was, according to the official statement ol the treasury department, $25 45 per capita, while that of April 1, 1898, was $23 69; April 1, 1897, $23 01, and April 1, 1896, s2l 53. Another feature of great interest is the increase in the amount of silver in circulation since 1878, In 1888 there was practically no silver in circulation. It is estimated that at that time the amount ol silver in circulation, mainly on the Pacific coast, was $25,000,000, The official figures show that on the first of April, 1899, there was in circu lation in silver in this country the sum of $475,193,942. This is nearly one-fourth of the entire amount of money in circulation of all kinds. It may be added that the increase cold coin in circulation the past few years has been remarkable. On April 1, 1896, the gold coin in circulation was, according to treasury figures, $445,612 256' on April 1, 1987, $517.- 127,757; on April 1, 1898,5582,120742 and on April 1, 18s9, $694,855,942. These figures form a most interest ing study to the business world.

A majority of the ills afflicting people today is traceable to kidney trouble. It pervades all classes of society, in all cli ipati - . regardless of age, sex or condition. The mptoros ofkldney trouble are un mistaka! : ■. each as rheumatism, neuralgia sleeplessness, pain or dull ache in the back a desire to urinate often day or night, pro fuse or scanty supply. Uric acid, or brick-dust deposit in urine are signs of clogged kidneys, causing pois oned and germ-filled blood.
