Just for Convenience. Entirely apart from the many other advantages of a Personal Checking Account at the Bank, the convenience of it is no small consideration. The .... , i i ability to make purcnases ana pay bills after banking hours without the necessity of always having a pocketful of money is worth a great deal. With a Check Book in your pocket, you are taking no risks * of losing money and yet you ^ always have all of your money on hand and ready for use. One is as liable to need money W before nine in the morning or after three as between those hours. The Personal Check Book settles the matter. BANK OF WILLIAMSBURG KIN6STREE. S. G. C W Stoll, Pres.

Office J Deafness Cannot Be 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 condition of the mucous lining of the Eustachian Tube. When this tube is ir.Hamed 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 destroyed forever; nine cases out of ten are caused by Catarrh.which is nothing 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 Cure. Send for circulars, free, F J CHENEY & CO. Toledo, 0.
