[SEE Deafness Cannot be Cured by local applications . an they cannot reach the disease portion of the ear. There is only one way to cure deafness, and that is by constitutional remedies. Deafness is caused by an inflamed condition of the mucous lining of the Eustachian Tabe. When this tube is inflamed you 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 normal condition, hearing will be deatroyed forever; nine cases out of ten are caused by Oatarrh, which is nothing but an-inflamed condition of the mucous surface.

Mrs. Thomas Russell, whose hasband . dropped ont of sight last, Wednesday. evening as suddenly and effectually as though the earth had opened and swallowed him, is alarmed beyond expression at the continued absence of the missing man. She says any stories to the effect that he and she were in the habit of quarreling, or that their relations were anything but harmonious, are made out of whole cloth. “He bands,” she remarked tothe TRaNnscriPT :. Man this morning. “He was uniformly kind to me. He was sober and was eager to obtain employment although his health was far from good. He was afflicted with asthma, and had been quite feeble of late. Wednesday after.}moon he visited his cousin, Ephriam Rassell of Piety Hil. He told him that he was feeling poorly, but did not appear down-hearted. As the five o’clock train whistled he looked at his watch and saying be must go back to the hotel to dinner left with the remark that in the evening he would see. Ephriam down town and give him the address of Thos. W. Jones to whom Ephrian desired to send a letter. *,hat,” sad Mrs Russell this morning with tears in her eyes, “is the last trace-I can get of the poorman. I do not be. lieve he has mude away with himself, because it was not his nature to give up easily. Iam certain he has not deliberately deserted:me, becanse he thought too much of me, for that; I fear that something terrible must have happened to him—that perhaps he has fallen into an old shaft or over a bank ‘Somewhere, and has perished.” , Mr. Russell was born at Camptonville, Yuba county, his parents. being highly respected people of that place. A year ago he and his wife, who had been residing at Granite Basin and other parts of Plumas county, where Mr, Russell was a hydraulic miner, thought théy might better their condition by going where work was more plentiful. They came first to Camptonville and then to this city, arriving here last spring. Their hard luck followed them. Since coming here they have seen hard lines, being able to get but little employment and being out of money most of the time. Mrs. Russell says her husband had on dark pants and a light brown coat and vest when he left her. He is about 85 years old, of medium hight, weighs 161 pounds, has brown hair and asa ndy mustache. -_ 0? 0-8 School Contract Let Last Night.
