    THE CORVALLIS GAZETTE, FRIDAY, MARCH 21, 1S90.
THE HUMAN EAlt.
Few people realize what a won
derfully delicate .structure the
human ear really is. That which
we ordinarily designate so is, after
all, only the mere outer porch of a
series of winding passages, which,
like the lobbies of a great buildi
lead from thp world without to the
world within. Certain of these
passages fre full of liquid, and their
membranes are stretched like
parchment curtains across the cor
ridor at different places, and can be
made to tremble like the head of a
drum or as the surface of a tam-
bourine does when struck with a
stick or with the fingers. Between
two of these parchment-like cur
tains, a chain of very small bones
extends, which serves to tighten or
relax these membranes, and to com
municate vibrations to them. In
the innermost place of all a row of
white threads called nerves stretch
like the strings of a piano from the
last point to which the tremblings
orthrillings reach and pass inward
to the brain A wonderful piece
of mechanism indeed.
PEOPLE AND FACTS.
There is no substitute for leather.
Americans smoke 40,000.000 of
cigars a year.
When the rats leave a portion of
the coal mines an accident happens.
The inventor of the slylographic
pen is, said to have made $1,000,
000 out of it.
Central park contains 840 acres,
of which 143 are occupied by the
two reservoirs.
Medical students can tell a fe
male liver by the marks of the cor
set steel on it.
Buenos Ayrs has twenty-three
daily papers, more than .New
York or London.
Pennsylvania has two Arbor
days each year, one in the spring
and one in the fall.
There are over 4.000 working
maids and widows in the depart
ment of Washington.
The Missouri runs 1,000 miles
through Dakota and is navigable
the entire distance.
A man living near Pottstown,
Tenn., has attended 4.000 funerals
in his eighty years of life.
Eighteen hundred and ninety-
two is also the anniversary or tne
admission of Kentucky into the
Union.
The pronunciation of the word
"envelop" as if spelled "onvelope"
is probably reminiscent of the
French.
Hubbard T. Smith, of the war
department in Washington, sold
his song "Listen to My Tale of
Woe," to a Washington publisher
foi$15. A few days ago a British
house offered him $10,000 for the
exclusive right to publish the song
in Europe.
The household of Mr. Brackett,
governor-elect of Mass., is arbi
trarily ruled by a daughter of the
ate of 14 months. The rest of the
family are Mr. and Mrs. Brackett,
and a bright boy of 10 years; bu t
they are of no account when Miss
Brackett is about.
Julius Baxter, of Nashvilb, the
probable democratic candidate for
governor of Tenn.r says .he would
like to see the so-called Solid
South broken. "It would be bet
.ter for the south commercially,"
he said, and better for the whole
country to have party lines
changed."
Senator. Hampton comes from
an old and fofflnerly wealthy south
ern family. Hi3 grandfather, "the
old general," was quite prominent
in American politics, and Senator
Hampton, at the outbreak of the
war, was .probably the largest
slaveholder in the United States
There were between 2,500 and
3,000 slaves on his plantation at
one time.
. Henry F. Vallance, a London
lawyer, has been disbarred - for
telling his client to what country
he should flee after committing a
crime, without danger of extradi
tion. The court, in striking his
Children Cry for
name from the roll, took occasion
to draw a sharp distinction be
tween a lawyer's duty to his client
in defending him when on trial
and his duty to the court when
appealed to by an offender to aid
his escape before trial.
WAKED UP EFFECTUALLY.
- A lethargic, dormant condition of
the liver is hardly tcrbe overcome with
drastic cathartics ana nauseous cliol
agogues. A gentler, pleasanter and far
more effective means exists of arous
ing the organ when somnolent. This
is Hostetter's Stomach Bitters, vouch
ed lor by the medical fraternity, tested
by the public for many years. A re
sumption by the biliary organs organ
of its secretive fiffltion, with the ac
tivity attendant upon health, a return
to regularity of the bowels, aud a re
newal of digestion, are the no less
happy and certain results of using the
Bitters systematically. Its laxative ef
fect is never painful and drenching, its
tendency being rather to perpetuate
regularity than to produce a copious
action. Malaria, nervousness, debility,
kidney troubles and neuralgia it sub
dues effectnally.
An authentic list of the princi
pal subscribers to the democratic
campaign fund of 1888 has been
published. Next to W. L. Scott,
the coal monopolist, Havemeyer,
the head of the sugar trust, is the
largest subscriber. The list is as
follows: President Cleveland,
$10,000; Secretary Whitney, $20,
000; Secretary Vilas, $10,000;
Postmaster-General Dickinson,
$10,000; Secretary Fairchild, $10,
000; Secretary Edicott, $10,000;
Secretary Bayard, $10,000; W. L.
Scott, (coal monopolist), $75,000;
Cal. Brice (in ninety nine other
things), $50,000; W. II. Have
meyer (sugar trust), $60,000;
A. P. Gorman, $20,000; W. H.
Barnum (pig-iron monopolist),
$10,000; Herman Oelrichs, $50,
000. What kind of a showing
does this make for a "tariff reform,"
"anti-trust" and "anti-monopoly"
party. .
MOTHERS!
Castoria is recommended by physicians
for children teething. It is a "purely vege
table preparations, its ingredients are pub
lished around each battle. It is pleasant to
the taste aud absolutely harmless. It re
lieves constipation, regulates the boweis,
quiets pain, cures diarrhoea anil wind colic,
allays feverishness, destroys worms, and
prevents convulsion, soothes the child and
gives it refreshing and natuaal sleep. Cas

When Baby was sick, we gave her Castoria,

A great discovery of zinc ore
has been made near Field, Mani
toba. A Canadian Pacific railway
tunnel is driving right through the
lode, whichN is simply one solid
body of ore. This ore has always
been mistaken for red granite,
but it turns out to be a very rich
body of zinc. It is at, least 100
feet wide. The ore assays 65 per
cent, zinc, 10 per cent, iron, $250
in gold and $150 in silver to the
ton.
It is estimated that The ocean
steamers running out of the port
of New York received in passenger
fares alone, last year, over $30,
000,000, and not a dollar ofHhis
vas sum wis earned by a vessel
carrying the American flag. The
big subsidies granted by foreign
governments to their ships ac
counts for the decay of America's
foreign commercs.

There is a marked difference, be
tween the harbors of the Atlantic ceast
and those of the Pacific. In the- first
place they are much more frequent as
there are more large iivis emptying
into the sea and the indentations in
the coast are numerous. Few of them
are what would be called b.irred har
bors. If there are bars they do not
shift- much and the water" is always
very deep even over theie. There is
a reason for this condition, or freedom
from serious obstructions. The moun
tains in the east are not . near the. sea
board. Nearly all of the rivers that
empty, directly into the ocean flow
through long areas of comparatively
level country and do not take the sar;d
and debris along with them that they
would were they mountain streams.
Then the country has been so long
settled and cleared that the amount of
surplus material in the form of drift
wood and other refuse matter is very
small. Considering then how tittle
has been done to improve, on nature
in our western harbors, while millions
have been spent in the east with not
so many obstacles as here, certainly
every effort should be made to gain
and use appropriations well for aiding
navigation. Astoiian.
It. is estimated that the cost of
collecting statistics to settle the
question of the mortgage indebted
ness of the country will amount
to at least $1,000,000. This sum,
properly used, will bring out infor
mation on the subject, that is com
plete and reliable.
Hot a Pimple on Baby
Baby one year old. Bad with Eczema.
Hair all gone. Scalp covered with
eiuptions. Cured ly Cuticura. Hair
splendid and not a pimple on him.
Cured by Cuticura
I cannot say enough in praise of the
CcncuRA. Remedies. My .hoy, when one
year of age, was so bad with eczema that he
loaf all of his hair. His scalp was covered
with eruptions, which the doctors said was
scaJl head, and that his hair would never
grow again. Despairing of a cure from
physicians, I liegau the use of the Cdticura
Remedies, and, 1 am happy to say, with
the most perfect success. His hair is now
spleudid, and there is not a pimple on him.
I recommend the Cuticura Remedies to
mothers as the most speedy, economical,
ant sure cure for all skin diseases of infants
aud children, and feel that every mother
who has an afflicted child will thauk me for
so doing.
