Mrs. Liz zie Glenn, of Littleton, is visiting her-mother, Mrs. Martha Vinson, this week. Misses Lila, Annie Louise and Ag nes Willis have returned from their schools, and are enjoying a much needed rest. To the delight of his friends, Mr. Thomas C. Taylor has returned from Richmond where fo a month or more he has been ur.der the treat ment of a skilled specialist and is greatly benefitted. May his noble, useful life be spared for years to come. The death of Mr. W. E. Mabry, which occurred on last Wednesday, removes from among us one of the best known and most universally loved men among us. He was one of the best men I ever knew, as near the embodiment of sinless perfect ion as it is possible for man to at tain in this life. Like his Lord and Master he went about doing good, and whenever there was suffering in his reach there he was to help. He loved his Lord his church, his bre theren, his pastor, and attended every service unless providentially prevented. He entered in the Civil War at the beginning and followed Lee for four years, was taken pri soner a month before the end came and confined at Point Lookout for two months. He was happily mar ried to Miss Mary Lee. Four chil dren blessed this union, three daugh ters and one son, Mrs Andrew Har dy, Mrs. George Sexton, and Mrs. Jimmie Ellington survive him. His wife and son preceeded him to the Spirit world, havirt; died several years ago. His funtrd was preach ed by his pastor. Rev. A. P. Mustian, at his church in the presence of a large crowd of sorrowing friends and loved ones, and from thence to the old family burying ground where we laid him away to rest, the burial sarvices being conducted by his old friend, and former pastor, Rev. A. G Willcox. May God comfort those who weep, and may this beautiful life and happy death be a stimulus to all to follow in his steps as he fol lowed his Lord. Oak City Items. Oak City, May 20.

Deafness Cannot bs Cured by local applications, as they cannot reach the diseased portion of the ear. There is only one way to cure deafness, and that is by constitutional remedies. Deafness is caused by an inflamed con dition of the mucous linine of the Eustachian Tube. When this tube is inflamed you have a rumbling sound or imperfect hearing, arid 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 tie stroyed forever; nine cases out of ten are caused by Catarrh, which is noth ing but an inflamed condition of the mucous surfaces. We will give One Hundred Dollars for any case of Deafness (caused by catarrh) that cannot be cured by Hall's Catarrh (Jure. Send for circulars, free. F. J. Cheney & Co., Toledo, O.
