Deafness Can't be Cured by local ak>plications, as they cannfot reach the diseased portion of the ear. There is only one way to cure Deafness, and that is by constitutional remedies. .Deafness is caue.d by an inflamed con .dition of the mucous lining of the Eustachian Tube. When this tube gets 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 de stroyed fooever; nine cases out of ten are caused by catarrh', which is nothing but an inflamed condition of the mnucous surfaces. We will give One Hundred D)ollars for any case of Deafness (caused by Catarrh) that we can not cure by tak ing Hall's Catarrh Cure. Send for circulars, free. F. J.

Mli-s Mattie MCIntosh began a pri vate school for boys and girls in New -berry, now near three years ago. Dur ing this time, the brick building in rear of the Crotwell Hotel, on Pratt t street, has been used ly the school. Dur ing the present year she has had built on the vacant lot in front of the resi dence of Dr. James Mcintosh a neat frame strue:ure for her school., with all the modern appliances. Her school, during the past three years, has been quite successful and has grown in pop ular favor, and during the present ses sion sixty-three pupils have been en rolled. Miss Fannie Baxter has taught with Miss Mcintosh from the begin ning of the school. During the present session Miss Hennie Robertson has also been engaged in the school. These are talented young ladies and much he t loved by their pupils. On Monday of this week the school - occupied the new school building men tioned above, and a pleasant and enter. taiiing programme was arranged for the oc'-asion. The patrons of the school and a few invited ge'sts were r present to witness the exercises. Prayer was offered by Rev. W. C. I Sehaeffer. A short address was then delivered by Rev. U. W. Holland, D.D., who ex - plained what a good school was for, and said there was danger of forgetting one of the important elements of a well rounded education, and that was or i the moral side of the education. All scholars should desire that which is . best in an education. There should t be a development of the heart side by side with the mind. Above all, the . teachers should seek to teach and tc learn unselfishness which is the sub stratum of all education. In order to promote this education, first seek to teach and to learn the principle of courtesy-an old-fashioned word but a splendid one. Second, there is a higher phase of this subject, which is reverence for place and holy things. There is a sad want of this feeling among our young people, and some of the older ores too. The teacher should seek to enforce the command of the Bible, "Honor thy father and thy mother." Along with this should be inculcated that esteem for truth that will make n'o excuses for evasion of duty. At the conclusion of this talk by Dr. Holland, Miss Beulah Girardeau, one of the pupils of the school read a well prepared essay, giving a history of the school from its organization. We give herewith a full text of Miss Girardeau's paper: LOOKING BACK, OR THE HISTORY OF OUR SCHOOL. Almost three years ago, on a bright September morning, a little company of young people gatbered together to begin school life. I myself was there, -a little girl of twelve, but the scenes of that morning and the events of the succeeding years rise clearly before me, and for the benefit of my fellow pupils especially, and ou red h feel an intres inus I illrecllsome inci dents of our school life. It seems to nme that a school is but a .miniature nation, and while we confess the vast good resulting from the study of history and strive to fill our miinds with the records and achievements o1 the Greeks and Romans, or acquire the knowledge of government from the study of the development of the En glish people, we might, wixth more in terest and equal profit study that which is daily happening around us, and which is history though unwritten. At the beginning of this school there -were ten scholars present. This numi ber has increased steadily and this yeai sixty-three p)upils have been enrolled. Some of our former schoolmates have gone far away from us, but their miem ory will be ever dear~no matter how many ion g miles lie betwveen. So far we have been vecry fortunate in regard to the health of the school. 9 During these three years there has been but one death. Julia Aull, a dear little girl of sis summers, died on the :30th of January, ,I1889. Though young, she had a very r sweet and amiable disposition, and is sorely missed by both companions and teachers. It is h]ard to realize that in a single momen t this gentle little maider s who had just b)egun to climb the bilh r of learning, passed from the domaic wvhich our narrowv wisdom boui.ds, tc the possession of thbe mnfinite knowledge - of the angels. It is strange yet true, that though my class has succ-essfully passed the d rea' ed examinations of each term, fromi bein~ the first class at the opening of the i. school we are now the fourth. The explanat ion of this steady retrograde Slie in the fact that so many older and more advanced scholars have entered ,the school, but I am glad that we are now firmly established inl tihe line 01 .promotion and will soon rise to the dignity of third. We think we have -fairly learned this, for in three years we have waded through the perplexi. ties of English Grammrar and Algebre and conquered our Arithmietics, besides much work in other branches. In regard to the attainments of the young ladies, the Geometry, Trigononm -etry, \Virgil and Philosophy classes, mnemrber of the fourth class can searcel.3 dare to venture an opinion; she can only say, their recitation:s seem very satis. Sfactory to t heir teachers. Indeed it seemns to me that most o: us realize that we came to school t< work, and that our school days hav( been filled with studv. A t the end oIf the first year we had closing exercise in the school hous< from which we have just moved, al 'vwhich ti me, by hard study, we wver< ena bled to recite t wo) French p)ieces, Om. being the Lord's prayer. I say b) - hard study because whlen we begar none of us could speak one word o. f French. WVe, though glad of a change, leav< with regret tihe house in wvhichi we ha~v( lpent three very p)leasant years, anc will always look back to that time anc recall the miany happy days there.] hope, with a new house, we will all be gin anew, and try to implrove each da~ and each minute as it passes. .Rev-. John Stout, who was present nxt gave a short talk to the school Hie said. he was very happy to ba presen't on this occasion, and thati was~ a happy accident that his visit t< New berry was just now. This was not the opening of a schoo * but the enlargement of a school, an< it was an auispicious event. We rarel; alppreciate the oppIortunities affordet by, and the blessings of, a good school Hie spoke of the flight of time and th. nxecessity to improve each fleeting nmo Sment. He said it had been twent' yevars5 siice he wias in Newberry, am it did not seem near so long. Some c those who were girls when he was her were represented in the school by thei daughters. He protested against th Sidea that education was the training s -as to be able to earn a living It wa U oin od n ie n. i getting ready to live. It was right an honorable to earn a living, but ther was somletling higher in life than earn ing a living simply. Living and righ living was the thing to learn. Live a= to lift up others. All other living i worthless. Our life is not bounded b; the grave. At the conclusion of tfv. ir Stout's remarks four little boys an( seven little maidens gave a recitatiol in French in concert, which we did no understand. Then thirteen b,ys an< girls marched upon the plat form an< gave a calisthenie exhibition whiel was very good. Both these exercise showed careful and thorugh training The whole exercise lasted about on hour, and was much enjoyed by al present. No Extra Court. Jadge Izlar caine up on lMonday t hold the extra term of court ordered t be opened on Mlonday of this week The Jurorswere present, but it wa found that there was an irregularit; and the court was not a legal oi owing to the fact that no notice wua given in the newspapers as required b; the Act of the Legislature providi,: for such terms of court. On Tuesday morning, however, b fore this question was raised, a stron petition was presented to the .Tudg signed by most of the Jurors asking t be excused, as it was very important t their farms that they be at home, an it is likely their petition would hav been granted even if there had been a other reason for not having ajury cour The order for this extra terni did no specify that advertisement of the sam should be had, and the matter wa overlooked. No special blanie seen to attach to any one. It is just one < those things that will sometimes har pen to the best of officials. This ml: take, however, does not cost the count anything, inasmuch as the clerk < court, feeling that he was sonewht responsible for not giving the not ici has paid the jurors himself out of h: private funds. Section 211S of the Gene-al Statute providing for extra terms does not sa anything about advertisement. Section 2S of the Cade, however, say the Clerk of Court shall give fiftee days notice of such sxtra term. Thi section, however, was amended in 188 and the amended section says such nc tice shall be given as the Jude orderin the same may direct. It also says tha the Clerk of Court shall at least fiftee days before the holding of such cour cause the time and place to be notifie by publishing it for at least two week in a newspaper published nearest th place where such court is to be held. The Judge decided the defect wa fatal, and he returned home on Tues day. Even the most vigorous and heart peop)le have at times a feeling of wear ness and lassitude. To dispel this fee) ing take Dr. J. H. McLean's Sarsaps rilla; it will impart vigor and vitality A Runaway. On Tuesday afternoon MIr. F. I Bynum and MIiss Cecelia Bauknigh were out driving behind a pair of Dr Trribble's horses. Just as they wer coming up Nance street in front a the Opera House the horses becam frightened at the band engine of th fire department standing by the side < the street and gave a sudden turn u the street in front of Law range an overturned the buggy, throwing bot: the occupants to the ground. Neithe was seriously hurt, but both considerr bly bruised. The horses ran with the upturne buggy in front of the bank and ove Mir. Burton's Texas pony. Turning u Caldwell street they, ran on throug Graveltown and were stopped abou the branch. Strange to say neither tb buggy nor the horses were badly hurl It was fortunate that it was no worst Remember that John F. Speck doE all kinds of Watch, Clock, .Jewelry an Spectacle work.

John Stout of Society Hit who was on a visit to Newberra preached last Sunday morning an night at the Baptist church. The se: mnon in the evening wvas from Romar 1 : 16. Notable men, said the speaker,woul go up from the provinces to Romei order to achieve greater fame and su< cess, to entrance listening senates, ort enjoy the luxuries of the great city. Paul was minded to go, also, th: he might declare the "Gospel of Chris for it is the power of God unto salvi tion to every one that believeth." But unheraldled and without retinu did lhe go. In humility, rather, to te of "the righteousness of God reveale from faith to faith." Science, philosophy, et c., had faile to up-lift fatllen humanity. And lhe wr constrained to preach the Gospel in th metropolis of the world, that he mrigh declare its p)otential force-its breadt and universal salvability--its powert cleanse, transform and elevate "ever one that betieveth.". Mir. Stout thought that Paul's affrn ation that lhe was ''not ashamed,'' covert rebuke to many who go up fr oi rural places to the centres of civiliz: tin and who, in manner at least, (d< ny their discipleship; nay, are mort tied when it becomes known! Paul was not only "not ashamed, butt '"gloried" in thie effcacy of t11 knowledge and power revealed in th Gospel of Christ, declaring the secrt to bie founid in the simple act of "be lieving"' anid accep)ting.
