Deafness Cannot be Cared
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.
Peafnese is caused 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 itisentirely
closed Deafness 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. in
flamed condition of the mucous surfaces.

WILD HOGS IN ARIZONA.
Iaxga Droves of Degenerate De
scendants of Tamo PorKers.
The Thrilling Experience of an Over-Confident
Hunter "Who Went Ont to
Bag a Tender' Voanjf Sucker
. A Bad Old Boar.
The wildest of wild hogs live both
above and below, Yuma, on the Colorado-
river, says the San "Francisco
Chroniele. While the steamer was ly
ing at Castle Dome landing a few days
since, loading with ore, a fine band of
thera onhe opposite ' shore came down
to the river to feed on the banks, where
the grass and weeds were green, and to
get a drink of water. They paid no
attention to the boat or to the Indians
at work. After loafing around for
awhile an old boar came out of the
brush, and, on spying us, gave a
"swish," and away they all went.
Hardly a day passes that the Indians
and cattlemen do not run upon them.
These bands seem to be more timid
than ugly. When the late' Thomas
Blythe was trying to settle a colony at
Lerdo, forty-five miles below Yuma
on the Colorado, he set down a large
number of very fine full-blooded Berk
shire and Poland-China pigs, and turned
them loose on the banks of the river
near Lerdo, where tbey lived on the
roots, grass, weeds, tules and mesquite
beans; bred, multiplied, kept fat and
filled the low and tule lands with a
large number of fine porkers. Never
seeing a human being, except now and
then a lone Indian, they soon became
wild, and wilder still, and scattered
until the low lands and woods were
full of them. Notwithstanding- th::t
the coyotes slaughtered the little ones
in great numbers, they have increasoi
until it is estimated that at the pres
ent time there are more that ten thou
sand of them roaming up and down
the Colorado and Hardie rivers, from
their mouths up as high a3 tide runs', or
from sixty-five to seventy miles this
side of the gulf.
They go wherever they please; noth
ing stops them in their course. When
the Colorado is at its Hood they will
cross it from shore to shore, even near
the Hardic, where it is four miles wide
when at its highest gauge. Their range
gives them the finest, of feed wild,
sweet potatoes, tules, stray fish, clams,
dead turtles and seaweed along the
river bank at low tide. They are un
molested, except now and then by a
hunter who finds his way down the
river. Most of the hunters give the
wild swine a.wide berth, except now
and then as they happen to spy a nice
little roaster on the bank and within
easy rifle shot.
A few years ago a man and his family
were living a few miles below the col
ony on the bank of the Colorado. He
had a pair of very fine, large stag
hounds, which the owner claimed could
run down and kill any wild hog in that
region. One day he took dogs and rifle
and went for a nice little one, just right
for the oven. He had not gone far be
fore he found a large band of hog's, and
turned his dogs loose on them. No
sooner had they started when out of
the tules near by jumped an enormous
boar, a monster, who, with mouth wide
open, paying no attention to the dogs,
made for the hunter. The latter drew
up his rifle and fired,, but on came the
boar, the dogs nipping him at every
jump. The hunter fired a second shot,
but on came the beast. The hunter
turned and ran for a mesquite tree a few
yards distant, the hog close to his heels.
He dropped his gun and jumped for
life, grasping a limb of the tree just as
the hog grabbed his pants and tore one
half of them from him, but he was safe,
just out of reach. The dogs nil this
while ran grabbing the hog by the hind
legs, to which the beast paid no atten
tion. The mad boar seized the bark of
the tree in his great tusks and tore it
into shreds. Finally he turned upon
the dogs, instantly killed one and
wounded the other so that it died soon
after. He then turned his attention to
the tree where sat the hunter. lie
guarded him until it was dark. Twice
did the man get down and try to get
his rifle, but his foe was on guard and
drove him back up the tree. During
the night the boar left. Daylight came
and so did help. The men had hardly
reached the river and got in their boat
when down came the old hog after
them in vain pursuit.
, Napoleon as a Nlmrod.
An- anecdote of the first Napoleon
is told in a story, forming part
of the recollections of the two
uncles of the writer, described as
"favorites" of Napoleon III., runs as
follows: Once, hunting with the em
peror, they wcra consoled by him for
their bad shooting, with the assurance
that the first Napoleon was even a
worst shot than they. It seems that
whenever a stag was brought to bay,
it was usual to leave the animal .to be
killed by Napoleon. On one occasion
Napoleon could not be found, and the
master of the hounds did the busi
ness. Suddenly Napoleon arrived,
and the stag was hurriedly propped up
on his legs with tree boughs. The gun
was handed to him and he fired at the
stag, which, of course,' feU to the
ground, while a piteous whine from a
hound showed that something different
from a dead stag was hit. Napoleon
was completely deceived, and observed:
"After all, I am not so "bad a shot as
they try to make out-"
More Frills Than Comfort.
- "If they make my home much more
attractive and comfortable." said Mr.
Glimmerton, "I shall have to leave it
altogether. They have taken there
lately to making sofa and . chair cush
ions of lovely materials, and very soft
and comfortable, which they scatter
around on the chairs and sofas, but it
seems that these are for visitors only
and to look at; they are not for mem
bers of the family. If I forget and sit
down on one of them I hear Mrs. Glim
merton or Miss Glimmerton say: 'Oh,
don't do that!' and then they come and
pat it ' and smooth it and fix it over
again, but I know that its invitation is
not for me."
THE SERPENT'S GAZE.
Strange Bluneular Power That Assists
Them In Fascinating Their Victims.
The power of continuing motionless,
with the lifted head projecting for
ward for an indefinite time, is one of
the most wonderful of the serpent's
muscular feats, and is one of the high
est importance to the animal, both
when fascinating its victim and when
mimicking some inanimate object, as,
for instance, the stem and bad of an
aquatic plant; here it is only referred
to on account of the effect it produces
upon the human mind as enhancing
the serpent's strangeness. In this at
titude, with the round, unwinking
eyes fixed on the beholder's face, the
effect may be very curious and un
canny. Ernest Glanville, a South African
writer, thus describes his own expe
rience in the Fortnightly Review. When
a boy he frequently went out into the
bush in quest of game, and on one of
these solitary excursions he sat down
to rest in the shade of a willow on the
bank of a shallow stream; sitting
there with cheek resting on his hand
he fell into a boyish reverie. After
some time he became aware in a vague
way that on the white,, sandy bottom
of the stream there was stretched a
long, black line, which had not been
there at first. He continued for some
time regarding it without recognizing
what it was, but aU at once, with an
inward shock, became fully conscious
that he was looking at a large snake.
"Presently, without apparent motion,
60 softly and silently was it done, the
snake reared its head above the . sur
face and held it there erect and still,
with gleaming eyes fixed on me in
question of what I was. It flashed up
on me then that it would be a good op
portunity to test the power of the hu
man eye on a snake, and I set myself
the task of looking it down. It was a
foolish effort. The bronze head and
sinewy neck, about which the water
flowed without a ripple, were as carved
in stone, and the cruel, unwinking eyes,
with fhe light coming and going in
them, appeared to glow the brighter
the longer I looked. GraduaUy there
came over me a sensation of sickening
fear, which, if I had listened to it,
would have left me powerless to move,
but with a cry I leaped up, and, seizing
a fallen willow branch, attacked the
reptile with a species of fury. Probab
ly the idea of the Icanti originated in
a similar experience of some native."
The Icanti, it must be explained, is a
powerful and malignant being that
takes the form of a great serpent and
lies at night in some deep, dark pool,
and should a man incautiously ap
proach and look down into the water
he would be held there by the power
of the great gleaming eyes, and finally
drawn down against his will, power
less and speechless, to disappear for
ever in the black depths. "
ANGLO-INDIAN WOMEN.
There Are More Sorts Than Mr.
Bias Introduced to Us.
Kipling;
The Anglo-Indian woman is a more
varied type than ever Mr. Kipling's
versatile pen has made her. Accord
ing to the description of one sojourner
in the land of the Hindoos, says the
New York Recorder, the Mrs. Aauk
shecs are no more common than the
women burning for a desire.'f or knowl
edge and parading views on the educa
tion of the native women. She goes
about armed with a notebook in which
she dots down the information she re
ceives. She insists upon visiting "Pur
dah" ladies and gives them advice
about the abolition of child marriage
and the necessity for intellectual de
velopment for women. She always
wears a solar "topee," with a gauze
veil around it, even at afternoon par
ties, where everyone blossoms like the
rose in gorgeous apparel. She con
verses with the native butler concern
ing the status of his people and quotes
him largely among the people who dis
play a shameful indifference on the
subjects which interest her.
The athletic young woman does not
flourish to quite the same degree in
India as in England. The climate is
against it. But a modified form of the
athletic girl in the "man's woman" is
a prominent feature of society. She
rides well and has a graceful seat and
a pretty figure, but long rides and long
walks tire her. She dresses beauti
fully, whether in tailor-made gowns at
the meets, or sheeny baU gowns, or
graceful tea robes. It is in these hist
that she is mast herself. In them site
manages to seem more cordial, more
hospitablo, almost more tender than in
anything else.
But the commonest type is the simu
lated simpleton. She cannot ride her
own pony. She is afraid of him; he
once shied and she fell off, but she
thinks she . might manage to mount
that dear little Arab of Capt. Ward's if
he would take her for a short and very
quiet ride. She feels the heat dread
fully. Madras is such a trying climate,
but she could not possibly undertake
the ' journey to the hills alone. She
never traveled alone but once, and
then her traveling bag and ticket and
all her money were stolen by some
"horrid native, and Jack was so cross!"
She would rather wait until she could
find some manly escort. It is so much
pleasanter to have a man to look after
you and your luggage, and she even
shrinks from the care of her own purse.
The simulated simpleton is not so
simple as she seems, and she has one
great ' advantage . over her sisters a
considerable knowledge; innate dr ac
quired, of the weakness of man. . Not
for her the toil and trouble of daily life.
A Temple Made from a Single Stone.
Mayalipmam, India, has seven of the
most remarkable temples in the world,
each of these unique places of worship
having been fashioned from solid gran
ite bowlders. Some idea of their size
and the task of chiseling out the in
terior may be gleaned from the fact
that the smaUest of the seven is
twenty-four feet high, seventeen feet
long, and twelve feet wide. Travelers
who have carefully examined them are
of the opinion that it took centuries of
work to carve these graceful edifices
from native rock.
CLOSE OF THE CRIMEAN WAR.
Date of the Treaty of Peace and How
Brave Deeds Were Kecordcd.
' The formerly ratified treaty of peace
was brought to Londen by William
Stuart, first attache to" the Brit ish em
bassy at Paris, on April 28, Sun
day May 4, was observed as a day of
general thanksgiving to almiy h ty God
for the preservation of peace; and an
Monday the 5th, it was formally pro
claimed in London, with the usual
solemnities. Addresses to the crown,
approving of the peace, were carried
in both houses of parliament on the
evening of that day; and on the Sth
both houses cordially voted "thanks to
the army, navy and marines employed
in the operations of the late war."
The "feelings entertained toward the
men who fought and "bled in the Crimea
by the queen, the government and the
people of England are also placed on
record in an excellent dispatch of Lord
Panmure's, which will be perpetuated
as long as the language exists.
"Since the period," said the noble
secretary of war, "when the army first
quitted the shores of England, there
has been no vicissitude of war which it
has not been called upon to encounter.
It was assailed by cholera shortly after
its arrival in Turkey. Then was proved
that moral as well as physical courage
pervaded its ranks. Led to the field,
it triumphed in engagements in which
heavy odds were on the enemy's side.
It carried on, under difficulties almost
incredible, a siege of unprecedented
duration, ' in the course of which the
trying duties of the trenches, priva
tions from straitened supplies, and the
fearful diminution of its numbers from
disease neither shook its courage nor
impaired it discipline. . Notwith -.landing
that many a gallant comrade fo.ll
in their ranks, and they were called to
mourn the gallant commander who led
them from England, and who closed irr
the field his noble career as a soldier,
her. majesty's troops never ilinched
from their duties, nor disappointed the
sanguine hopes of their country."
