Deafness Cannot be Cured .y lo•,al applications, as they cannot reach the diseas- ed 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 rnucoua lining of the Eustachian Tube. When this tube is inflamed you have a rumbling sound or im- perfect hearing, and when it is entirely cloeed, Deft- ness is the result, and unless the inflammation can be taken out and this tube restored to its normal condi- tion, hearing will be destroyed forever; nine cases out of ten are caused by Catarrh, which is nothing but an inflamed condition of the inucouS surfaces.

Where Local Option isTyranny Charlottetown, the principal city of Prince Edward Island, is a thriving agricultural community of Here is a cotninunity in which twelve thousand people it has the prohibition law over - been under the sway of the total- turns every principle abstinence extremists for years of law. To-daythe peopleofCharlotteto•.vn openly deride the value of all pro- hibition legislation. They KNOW, by experience, that prohibition docs not merely fail to prohibit the tnuSuse of liquor, it promotes it, and it adds perjury to the commonplaces of life in a community. Under the prohibition law, as the power of the extremists applies it in Char- lottetown, these things are commas CHARLOTTETOWN, P.E.I.

People with private grudges to sate have used the •' prohibition.' law to get private revenge, and have deliberately used perjury to get that revenge. Pals. swearing. in liquor cases. has become so commot: as to be to -day a j.st among the people. The citizens of Cha.lottetown have long since refused to appear as prosecutors in liquor cases; and smport d informers have be - ram. familiar units of court proce- di:re th^re. Has this stopped liquor selling ? Has this advanced the cause of temperance in Charlottetown 1 It has c'.ene no such thing. Last year, in this quiet little commu- nity, 193 men were arrested for drunkcnnass on the streets. The trade in ardent spirits is steadily en the increase in th.s city, ard all through the island. The leading Church of England clergyman of Charlottetown openly declares that the law is tyrannical, absurd and futile. Men of the highest standing there denounce it publicly. Its only defen•:crs are the fanatics who prefer to force a people to drink grossly by stealth, instead of openly in moderation. When any community has well -regulated bars, it drinks in moderation of mild beverages. When the law becomes sumptuary and oppressive, th/drink evil grows and people use adulterated liquors and in greater quantity. Prohibition in Prince Edward island is tyrannical, is grossly useless,- since the drink evil, as an evil, is act ,ally increasing, and serves no other purpose than to transfer the liquor traffic from the grip of the law to the caprice and greed of the individual. If the fanatics have the:r way with your community, you can expect tyranny, perjury, cowardice to grow there You cannot expect, in reason, the drink habit to lessen ; for wherever prohibition has had a fair test, it has lessened the proper USF of liquor and increased its ABUSR. ,.e Save it Anyway Hibbert: Thomas Geary has sol his tine farts ou the Lith concession t ' Charles Young, of the satire townshi This farm contains 11(1 acres and wa sold for 87,I01IIt.

Honest Physician is Anxious to Cure and Uses the Best Available Remedies. The proposed legislation through the Dominion Parliament for the reg- ulation of tho manufacture and sale of patent or proprietary medicines is of the utmost importance, and it is receiving a great deal of attention, not only by the proprietary medicine manufacturers, but also by the leading doctors and druggists. Every manu- facturer of reliable anti high class remedies welcomes the bill as a step in the right direction. Tho discussion has brought out the fact that the best physicians in Canada and on the con- tinent approve of and prescribe I'sy- chino in cases of the most difficult character. Int a recent instance of very serious throat and lung trouble the patient had been using Psychine. Two leading United States specialist* were consulted, in addition to two eminent Canadian physicians. Upon Learning what the patient wag using, a sample of Psychine was taken and analyzed, with tho result that the physicians advised its continurnee. They proscribed no other medicine but Psvchino, with the result that the pa- tient bas fully recovered and is s splendid walking and talking adver- tisement for the wonderful curative pourer of a remedy that will ''stand up" before the keenest professional criticism and analysis. As a builder up of the system and restorer of all wasted conditions, Psychine has no equal, and the best and most earnest physicians recognize this fact. " At the ago of 25 my lungs were In a terrible state. I had la grippe the year before; it settk'.t on my lungs and I kept steadily growing worse till I got down so low I was in bed for six weeks I hada consultation of doctors, and they said they could do nothin > more for me.

Psychine, pronounced Si -keen, is the greatest of tonics, building up the sys- tem, increasing the appetite, purify- ing the blood, aids digestion, and acts directly upon the throat and lungs, giving tone and vigor to the entire system.
