Deafness Cannot toe Cured
By' local applications, as they cannot

There is only one way to cure Deafness,
and that 19 by constitutional remedies.
JDoafnees is caused by an inflamed con
dition of the raucous 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 condi
tion, hearing will be destroyed forever;
nine cases out of ten are caused by
catarrh, which is nothing but an in

WITH THE WHIP.
Be Flicked the Revolver From the Stage
Kobber's Hand.
"There is quite a difference between
staging in the early days of the- state
and now," said William Miller, the
owner of ' the stage line running- from
Cazadcro to Ukiah, to a San Francisco
Cull man. . -. . "
"When I came here i from Boston in
1854, I drifted about, a bit. and finally
went into the service of Charles Mc
Laughlin, the man who was afterward
killed by Jerome Cox. He was the
owner of the longest stage line at that
time. It ran with relays from San
Jose to Los Angeles. '
"I remember once, in a lonely coast
range canyon, through which the road
wound, we had a little experience that
was thrilling- for the moment. It was
about ten o'clock and a moonlight
night. I was just putting the horses
through.- The stage was full of pas
sengers, and there was a heavy treasure
box. .
"Just as I got around a bend in the
road I saw the figure of a man on
horseback standing by the side of the
road. He yelled to stop, and I saw a
gun barrel gleam in the moonlight.
The horses were going at a speed that
might be called breakneck, and I just
made up my mind to take the chances
of getting through. I saw the gun
raised to the fellow's shoulder as we
approached. I had my long whip in
my hand, and with a desperation born
of peril of the moment I made a vicious
swipe at him.
"I don't know how it occurred, but
the lash wound itself around the gun,
and as we dashed by the whip was
drawn taut, and I knew it had caught,
so held fast. I was nearly pulled out
of my seat, but the gun wis dragged
from the robber's hand and fell to the
ground, at the same time it was dis
charged by the shock. It rattled along
the road for quite a distance before the
whiplash unwound itself. I don't know
what the highwayman thought, but
IH bet he was surprised."

BELIEVES IN MAGIC.
The
Indian lias Some Carious Notions
About Plants and Animals.
Very reluctantly do civilized Indians
give up their ideas of magic. The idea
of worshiping growing objects is quite
a settled one among the . tribes, and
some of the stories which connect corn
and flowers with beneficent tieities are
very pleasing and attractive. Animals,
too, says the St. Louis Globe-Democrat,
are spoken of in a very singular and
superstitious manner, and the different
sizes of beasts which are hunted is ac
counted for in a story of the creation
which is even more realistio and prac
tical than the one told in the first chap
ter of Genesis. This story, which is
frequently repeated with variations, is
that at the time of the creation all the
beasts of the field and forests clamored
for priority in size. Each was vain
gloi ious and dictatorial, and one after
another was being humbled by being
made smaller than a hated enemy, the
idea being that everything human and
otnerwise tnat was born bad a prior
existence and came into the world with
the benefit of experience thus derived,
The doctrine of the transmigration of
souls is so general among Indians of
various tribes that there was nothing
at all peculiar about this, and it is very
probable that some of the early writers
on this subject got their 'ideas from ex
ceptionally intelligent exponents of In
dian iiuddhism, or something very 6imi
lar to it.
Chinese Mourning.
The monthly bills of the Washington
Gas Light company are printed on paper
of a peculiar, dirty yellow tint which
happens to be the exact hue. of the Chi
nese emblem of mourning. The long
strips are left regularly at the doors of
all houses in the city, and at the Chi
nese legation among the rest. Just
after the change in ministers the strip
was left as usual in the vestibule of
the legation, and, being carried to the
new minister, affected him profoundly.
It was evidently intended, ke thought,
S . notifes.t:r.r: cf cmsbody'o dcuih,

WIVES EASILY OBTAINED.
How Charity Oirls Are Given In Marriage
to Deserving Italian Feasants.
At the far end of Naples lies the lit
tle church of Santa Maria Annunziata,
which, once a year, on the day of Our
Lady, wakes up into a brief life and
excitement. In a silent row before a
high altar kneel thirty girls, all in
black garments, with folded hands,
and eyes fixed on the picture of the
Madonna before them.
These are orphans from the neigh
boring foundling asylum, says the Chi
cago, Inter Ocean, and once a year
those who have reached the age of
eighteen are brought here to the church
and may be chosen in marriage by any
honest man whose papers are in order
and whose character is good. At the
door leading to the sacristy leans, a
gray-haired priest, the head of the asy
lum. By and by a young man makes
his way from the back of the church and
hands him a packet of papers. These
the priest reads carefully, and, being
satisfied, he gives them back and leads
the candidate toward tfiie row of girls.
Their eyes are fixed more steadfastly
than ever on the altar, their hands are
clasped tighter together, their faces
turn a shade paler, their hearts beat
quicker as the young man walks slowly
along the row. At last he stops; his
choice is made. He stretches out his
hand with a little smile.
The girl rises, casts a long look, half
thanks, half entreaty, at the picture
of the Madonna, puts her hand into
that of the stranger, and together they
.disappear -into the sacristy. The ice
being thus broken, other suitors come
forward.
VALUE OF ALFALFA.
The Wonderful Vitality of
liar Growth.
This Feeu-
The desert wastes of New Mexico
and Arizona may yet be broad fields of
pasturage covered with herds of fat
tening cattle if the hopes of the men
who arc deeply interested in certain
experiments are realized. The expec
tations of these men. says the San
Francisco Call, are based upon the won
derful vitality of alfalfa or Mexican
clover, the growth of which is aston
ishingly rapid and a field of which will
yield several crops in a season. Its
l-oots are said to go far down in search
of moisture, sometimes to a depth of
eighteen to twenty feet, and its nutri
tious properties and the avidity wita
which stock cat -it are well known,
The large land and live stock invest
ment companies which are now operat
ing in Jiew Mexico and Arizona have,
as an essential part of their schemes of
utilizing the desert lands, the growing
of large tracts of alfalfa with which to
feed their range cattle and other stock.
At one ranch alone, the La Cuoca, in
Mora county, N. M., one thousand head
of range cattle are now being fed and
fattened for market on alfalfa. The
Mexican clover is grown by aid of mod
ern irrigation, and the ' lands laid
down to it tend to improve in fertility.
Stockmen down in that country have
lost all faith in the prowess of modern
rainmakers and their schemes; and they
are running their efforts into more
practicable channels.
INGENIOUS SMUGGLING.
False Bank Notes Carried Into Russia in
Holloiv Fencils.
"One of the. most ingenious devices
for. smuggling was detected it Russia
not long ago," said O. L. EatoVitcb,. of
St. Petersburg, as recorded by the" St
Louis Globe-Democrat. '
' "A great number of false bank notes
had been put into circulation within
the dominions of the czar. They could
only have been imported, and although
the strictest search was made habit
ually over every vessel entering a Rus
sian port, no trace of the smuggling of
false notes was discovered. Accident
however, at last brought the mystery
to light. It happened that several
cases of lead pencils . arrived one day
from England, aiid while" being exam
ined one of them fell Out from a pack
age, and the custom house officer, pick
ing it up, cut it to a point and used it
to sign the orders which delivered up
the pencils to the. consignee. He kept
the loose pencil for his own use, and a
few days afterward, because, it needed
a good point, he cut it again and found
that there was no more lead. He cut
still further, and was surprised to find
a thin roll of paper nested in the hollow
place where the lead was supposed to
be. : The paper was. one ; of the false
notes, and in this, way they had been
smuggled into the country."
The House ol Ilapsbura;.
Rudolph von napsburg,' riding to his
Swiss home from hunting, came upon a
priest carrying the sacrament to a sick
man. The priest on foot was stopped
by a river. Rudolph immediately dis
mounted, set the priest and sacrument
on horseback and led the steed by the
rein to the sick man's house. He de
clined to take the horse again to daily
use, but gave it to the priest for ihe
service of the church. Remembering
this deed, Werner, archbishop of Mainz,
in 1273, procured the election of Ru
dolph as king of the Romans and Kais
er. Hence we have : the source and
fount of the proud imperial house of
Hapsburg. Schiller enhances the le
gend in one of the best of his ballads.
"Der Graf von Hapsburg.". It may be
mentioned that the late heir to the im
perial throne of Austria was named
after his illustrious ancestor, Rudolph.
He Knew the Law. '
A certain justice-of the peace from

your honor pleases," counsel pleaded,
"I should like to cite a few authorities
upon the point." Here he was sharply
