Deafness Cannot le Cared
By local applications; as they cannot
leach the diseased portion of the ea.
There is only one way to cure Deafness,
and that is by constitutional remedies.
Deafness 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 it is entirely
elosed Deafness is the result, and unless
the inflammation can be taken out and
ihis 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.
We will give One Hundred Dollars for
any case of Deafness (caused by catarih)
that cannot be cured by Hall's Catarrh

"I SPY STRANGERS."
A Cry That Will Clear the Galleries In
- the House of Commons.
As is well known,it is only through
courtesy, and in violation of strict
rules, that anyone is allowed to wit
.ness the proceeding's of the English
parliament. If an ill-natured member
choses to call out at any time, "I spy
strangers," the galleries must be im
mediately cleared. This custom, of
course, has become obsolete, and of
late the ladies, who can go anywhere
else in Westminister where visitors are
allowed, through their especial
champion, Mr. Byles, have endeavored
to secure the same privileges relative
to admission to the members' gallery as
those accorded to men. '
In a recent declaration before the
house of parliament, says . the New
York Advertiser, Mr. Herbert Glad
stone stated that the exclusion of
ladies from this place' was ' based on
the rule enforced by successive speakr
ers that women cannot obtain admission
to the house. "In former times," he
said, "between 1079 and 1778, the occa
sional presence of women in the
gallery below the bar was permitted.
Notice having1, on February 2, 1778,
been taken that strangers were pres
ent, the strang'ers, who were men,
withdrew in obedience to the sergeant-at-arms.
The ladies who filled the
gallery exhibited such persevering1 re
luctance to comply with the order that
they interrupted the business of the
house for two hours. Since that ladies
have never been allowed, to 6it within
that part of the house." .Mr. Herbert
Gladstone's statement ' has filled the
English newspapers with columns of
letters on the subject, the general
trend of which goes to show that the
British maid and matron propose to
assert that they have equal rights to
witness the doings of the lawmakers
with their husbands and sweethearts.
GHOSTS OF THE MAORIS.
They Scratch on Walls and Make Their
Presence Known by Whistling.
The Maoris, it appears, have a rooted
belief in ghosts, which they called
"Kehuas," and in various manifesta
tions from the spirit world. They do
not profess to hear the raps by which
European spiritualists suppose that the
presence of spooks is manifested, for
the reason that Maori houses, being of
reeds, rushes or grass, raps would not
be heard; but the ghosts ingeniously
accommodate themselves to circum
stances by scratching instead of rap
ping, which is, of course, very thought
ful . of them. Maoris believe that
ghosts speak in shrill, whistling voices,
and a recent traveler states that for
that reason the Maoris hate to hear
anyone whistle. The Kehua, accord
ing to native tradition, is generally
found lying across a path, and to step
over him is to die. If the traveler
goes round by another path that leads
to the place for which he is aiming he
will find that the Kehua is on the new
path before him. The one way to
avoid disaster js to turn back and go
home,, or, at least, to the place last left.
A chief, described as "very intelligent,"
assured Mr. Tregear, who, according
to the New York Advertiser, has lately
been investigating Maori superstitions,
that he saw the spirits of two of- his
uncles on each occasion before they
died. His father, mother, brothers or
sisters did not see, and it is not stated
why he supposed that his uncles
specially desired to visit him in this
fashion. The explanation of this and
the rest probably is that the Maoris
are a remarkably superstitious and
imaginative people, who can make
ghosts out of nothing or nothing
more substantial than dreams as eas
ily as an old Scotch wife of the last
century. v
THEY SLEEP THROUGH SUMMER.
Animals That Lie Dormant Daring the
Heated Term. .
When the heat of a tropical or semi
tropical summer dries up every pool
and parches the ground to such an ex
tent that it is difficult for animals not
endowed with great powers of locomo
tion to obtain water, they compromise
with nature by sleeping off the season
of heat and scarcity. The winter
sleepers, says the Brooklyn Eagle, are
pretty well known, but, owing to the
summer sleepers being - for the most
part inhabitants of. tropical countries,
far removed from the path of trained
observers, we are less acquainted with
the species practicing that means of
escaping the heat and drought of sum
mer. Indeed, at present only one
mammal, the tenec, a hedgehog-like
beast of Madagascar, is known to do
so. In South America and Africa va
rious reptiles estivate. In the plains
of Venezuela the alligator, the land
and fresh water tortoise, the boa con
strictor and several sorts of the smaller
kinds of serpent lie motionless during
the hottest period of the tropical sum
mer. But their dormancy is not so
perfect as that of some hibernators. In
Brazil, Australia and Cape Colony liz
ards, frogs, tortoises and insects pass
months of the rainless season inclosed
in hard earth, and in India many spe
cies of fishes live during the hot season
in a torpid condition, embedded in the
hardened clay.
It Needed Trying.
Judge Shipp, of the North Carolina
bench, was presiding over a trial which
had been protracted till midnight, and,
as a consequence, everybody was tired.
The plaintiffs lawyer was addressing
the jury, and suddenly said: "Gentle
men, I will tell you an anecdote." ' In
stantly the judge, the jury and the few
spectators were all attention, as the
lawyor was an admirable story teller.
But this time he proceeded to . tell one
of the dullest, prosiest and most point
less jokes possible. Everybody looked
disappointed. The judge, leaning
over, said in an unmistakable tone of
disappointment:"- "I don't see the point
to that joke." . "Neither do I," replied
the witty counsel, "but your honor
told it to me on our way down here,
and, I thought the lack of apprecia
tion must be due to my obtuseness, I
concluded to give the joke a trial by
jury." -
SLEEPING IN CHURCH.
It Is a Sign, for One Thing, of the Ap
proaching Old Ago.
Dr. Chalmers went to preach for Ed
ward Irving, the erratic genius who
asked the privilege of making a few
preliminary remarks and spoke an houi
or so in a crowded building, says tht
Christian Advocate. Chalmers, 'refer
ring to it afterward; said: "Whatcould
I do in an exhausted receiver?". There
are many cases justifying sleeping in
church; the mother who has been
watching two or three nights with a
sick child; the father who has been
thoroughly overworked, and invalids,
are not to be condemned if they doze
in the sanctuary unwillingly. The car
bonic acid gas resulting from crowds,
and especially from gas jets, old air
heated by steampipes, the effects of
furnaces with red hot firepots, through
which not only carbonic acid gas, but
a far more dangerous gas, . can perco
late, make the most devout and atten
tive drowsy.
Sometimes the first signs of old age
are a tendency to sleep in church. The
philosophy of the nod and of the atti
tudes of the head is this: Unconscious
ly we hold our heads in position by an
effort of the will. When sleep begins
that is relaxed; gravity takes charge of
the head and also of the under jaw,
but as the head slips back it produces
an uncomfortable feeling that slightly
awakens the sleeper, who spasmodical
ly exercises his will and straightens
himself up, and relaxes it immediately
afterward. This may continue in some
cases, putting the man in the attitude
apparently of bowing assent to
every succeeding sentence. No wom
an will voluntarily sleep in church
if she has the ordinary desire
to appear well. It must, however,
be conceded that in many instances
the minister is to blame. If he suc
cumbs to depressing influences, and es
pecially if he drones or is prolix, or
preaches only "words, words, words,"
or has a canting tone, so that on what
ever he says the same stress is laid
at regular intervals; if he turns his
face to the wall and does not look
at the audience, or fixes his eye upon a
point and never removes it, or is very
long, or makes the same gestures fre
quently, he may lull the people. Some
preachers have to preach half an hour
or so to become interesting. It was
well said to one of them: "If you had
delivered the first thirty minutes of
your discourse in the adjoining grave
yard before entering the church the
effect upon the living would have been
greater." "
NAPOLEON'S DAINTY TOILET.
After His Morning Shave His Valet Scoured
, Him with. Eaa 'He Cologne.
One of the most interesting articles
found among the recent numerous es
says upon tho private life of Napoleon
is on the toilet of the emperor, which,
it appears, was a most important mat
ter and regulated down to the smallest
details with mathematical precision.
When awakened it was Na poleon's cus
tom to glance over the paper while the
fires were lit. He was sensitive to cold,
and a fire was prepared in every room
even in midsummer. Then of distin
guished people awaiting an audience
he would designate those whom he
wished to see, after -which he would
rise and take a hot bath, lasting about
an hour. The daily shaving was the
next duty. Ordinarily his physician,
Corvisart, would be present, chatting
and securing favors, for his friends.
Napoleon's greeting was usually some
badinage, such as: "Ah, charlatan!
How many patients have you killed this
morning?"' And the physician would
reply in kind. Two valets were neces
sary for shaving, one holding the basin
and another the mirror.. The emperor,
in a flannel robe, de chamber, then
covered his face with soap and began
to shave. Throwing off his robe, No
poleon was next deluged with eau de
cologne and subjected to a thorough
scrubbing with a rough brush. The
valet then rubbed the whole body with
linen rolls saturated with eau de col
ogne a custom that Napoleon had ac
quired in the east. The scrubbing was
none of the lightest, either, for he
would call out from time to time:
"Harder rub harder." Wrhen the
scrubbing was over the emperor
dressed himself. A curious detail of
his custom was the religious care with
which he kept hung around his neck
the little leather envelope, shaped like
a heart, which contained the poison
that was to liberate him in case of irre
trievable reverses of fortune. This poi
son was prepared after a recipe that
Cabanis had. given to Corvisart, and
after the year 1808 the emperor never
undertook a campaign without having
his little packet of poison.
Origin of the Word Honeymoon. "
It was formerly a custom among
Teutonic-nations to drink a liquor made
of honey, and called hydromel, for a
moving age (a month) after the wed
ding feast. Hence the name "honey
moon." The Teutons knew very little
about treacle, as we learn that the n-me
Teutoni was given, 230 B. C, to a race
of people who had long been settled
in the country," and in' the provinces
which are now known respectively as
Denmark and Schleswig-Holstein, but
which were then known collectively as
the Chersonesus Cimbrica. The Teu
tons may even have brought the custom
to England with them when they came
over the Kimmerian Bosphorus about
680 B. C.
S " 'Japanese Soldiers.
A British officer, who apparently
knows, says that it "would be as rea
sonable to charge brave men armed
with pitchforks against ' brave men
armed with rifles as to pit,, man for
man, the Chinese in their present con
dition against the Japanese. Of all
native and colonial troops I have seen,
and I have seen most of them," says he,
"I would, next to Goorkhas, .prefer a
regiment of Japanese. They are brave,
temperate, patient and energetic, and
at this moment the Chinese, whatever
might be done with' them, are two
hundred years behind.". There is a
gymnasium in every Japanese bar
racks. .-'-.
