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 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
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.
We will give One Hundred Dollars for
any case of Deafness (.caused by catanh

SPANISH TREASURE TROVE.
Natives Wno Know Where It Is Eager to
Tell Their Secrets. I
The inhabitants of Stonehaven,
Eng., have been not a little excited ol
late by the receipt of communications
from benevolent Spaniards offering' -tc
point ? put the spot where a large
amount of buried treasure is to be
found. The last of these letters, which
is "' signed "Cesar de Cordoba," and
dated Barcelona, is . really a remark
able "document. ' Cesar offers to re
ward the "troubles" of the gentleman
addressed-a bailie of Stonehaven
with "the third portion of the money
hided" on certain conditions. - -
To begin with, he must "never make
to nobody the least revelation con
cerning the secret which I am trusting
you." Secondly, "you must come tc
Spain to take my, daughter and a re
spectable lady, who . ought to ac
company her till your country, where
my daughter will give you a topo-
graphic plane of the spot where the
money is hided." The payment ol
traveling expenses for the daughter
and duenna is insisted upon as a pre
liminary, as Cesar is not in a position
to carry his philanthropy to such a
pitch. In fact, his position seems to
be somewhat peculiar, for he adds: "I
cannot receive your letters directly be
cause I am too watched, you must
have the goodness to answer me at the
address of a friend of mine whom I
fully trust." The writer adds that the
treasure amounts to 840,000 pesetas
(33,600) in gold money and French
bank notes.
We cannot honestly say that the
offer sounds altogether reassuring. It
amounts practically to this: That the
speculator has to plant down some
200 on the chance of clearing 11,000,
and take a journey into Spain into the
bargain. The investment might pos-
sibly appeal to those sanguine ama-
teurs who plunge into theatrical man-
agement.
TO TURN BACKS ON ROYALTY.
Emperor William Devises a Scheme of
Protection Atrainst llomb Throwers.
1 a- fashins m everything, in-
eluding the protection of prominent
persons when they are on parade.
The most recent regulation .concern- ,
ing the protection of life m Europe,
says the New York Sun, is that of
Kaiser William. Some time ago there
was a good deal of socialistic agitation
ia Berlin and it was claimed that the
anarchists would attempt to throw a
bomb at the emperor as he drove
through the city on his way to a re
view. The route of the carriage was
lined with policemen, and back of
them was the customary mob of sight
seers on either side of the way. The
kaiser gave orders that as the royal
coach approached the police, who had
heretofore' always stood with their
backs to the crowd, so as to salute the
celebrities as they passed, should turn
their ' backs to the street, face the
mob and step back two paces from the
front line of the crowd. It was further
ordered that the crowd should be kept
on the sidewalks, so that the carriage
would be at some distance from the
line of sightseers on either side. These
orders were carried out, and they ap
pealed so strongly to the Russian am
bassador that he communicated them
to St. Petersburg and they have now
been adopted by the Russian police.
By keeping the crowd well back from
the carriage considerable motion was
made necessary on the part of an an
archist to throw a bomb successfully,
and, as the police were numerous, his
actions would be seen by one of the
guards if those functionaries were at
all wide awake. The Russian police,
in addition to adopting these measures,
absolutely surround the carriage of the
emperor with horsemen.
HE CHANGED HIS MIND.
A Man Who Once Thought He Would Be
Brave In a Train Hold-Up.
"I used to think that it was a mar
velous exhibition of cowardice for a
train load of passengers to quietly sub
mit to being held up by one or two
train robbers, and I used almost to
hope for the chance of showing what I
would do if the command 'hands up!'
should be given on a coach in which I
was traveling," said a Louisville drum
mer, recently.
"The chance came, and my ideas un
derwent a rapid change. It was a
Little Bock & Fort Smith train. It
was near Ozark, I think, when a man
appeared at the door and sang out:
'Hold up your hands, everybody!' Be
fore I had time to do what I thought
I would do two shots were fired almost
simultaneously. The first came from
the pistol of the conductor, John Kane,
of Little Bock, a brave man, who drew
and fired the moment he realized w'hat
the trouble was. The second shot was
fired by the train robber, and Kane
fell dead. The brakeman then fired,
and a second later he fell with a bullet
through his loins, which crippled him
for life. Since that experience I think
a man is a fool instead of a coward
who does not promptly throw up his
hands under such circumstances. Pro
vided all the passengers were armed,
one or two robbers could not fight the
whole lot, but as a rule only a few are
armed, and even the first man to take
hostile action would probably bite the
dust. One of the robbers was wounded
by either Kane or the brakeman and
his companions were captured by the
trail of blood. I was happy to attend
their hangingat Clarbsville, Ark., a
few months later." St. Louis Globe
Democrat. A ferocious Bird.
The enormous strength of the condor
is only -equaled by his voracity and
boldness. This immense bird often
pounces upon small animals, but, from
the shape and bluntness of his claws,
he is unable to carry anything very
heavy, so he contents himself with
fixing it against the; ground with one
of his claws, while with the other and
his powerful beak he rends it to pieces.
Gorged with food, the bird then be
comes incapable of flight and may be
approached, but any attempt at. cap
ture is furiously resisted. . " w- .
CHINESE NEWSPAPERS.
'
Printed on Bice Paper Without Wasting
an Inch of Margin.
Lpaid a visit yesterday to the big
gest Chinese newspaper in the empire
to make inquiries as to the employ
ment of a Chinese artist to do some
native illustrations for me,' and had ;a
most interesting1 talk with the man
ager.. The paper is called the Shun
Pao, and it is the best-paying1 and most
widely circulated of the three native
newspaper dailies 01 Shanghai.. It is
an eight-pag-e sheet of about the size
and shape cf Frank Leslie' s newspaper
or Harper's Weekly, says a letter by
Frank G. Carpen ter in the latter paper,
printed on the thinnest of rice paper.
It is so light that it does not weigh
more than a man's handkerchief, and
so thin that the paper can be printed
on one side only. The paper goes to
press in big sheets, which are so folded
that the blank side is turned inward
when taken in hand by the subscriber,
and so that there is neither cutting nor
pasting. Owing to the thinness of the
paper, it has a greasy, yellow appear
ance, and it is printed so closely with
Chinese type that not an inch of space
seems to be wasted. The headline or
title of the paper consists of two
Chinese characters, taking up a space
not wider than one of the columns of
our newspapers, and not more than an
inch in length. It is a one cent sheet,
its price being ten cents cash, but as
China is on a silver basis, this should,
in our money, now be divided by two,
and its price would then be only half a
cent. . r
THE ARGENTINE GIRL.
A Pretty Plctnre of Ueauty in Early Life
The Ueauty Gone Before She Is Thirty.
" A pen portrait from a foreign corre-
spondent of a typical Argentine girl
presents a very charming picture. In
the bloom of youth, and maturity as
well, for she is fully developed at fif-
teen, she is beautiful to look upon,
with her erect and splendidly propor
tioned figure, perfect oval face, hair as
! dark as night, and lustrous eyes shaded
. with long, curling lashes. A tinge of
daint7pink of a amask rose. And as
her red u part b a OTer
teeth of that j perfection rarely
Khe s a -htot n-
wtv. To m,ptl thp n.
suous beauty. To complete the en
chanting picture she must be clad in
some soft, clinging material made in
the latest Parisian styles, with here
and there a gleam of diamonds, and .a
coquettish hat to frame her dainty face.
A woman in the highest sense of her
peculiar nature, and yet a child with
all the vivacity of youth. She capti
vates with her beauty, but in mind and
soul there is something wanting which
physical perfection does not satisfy,
and the charm is soon gone,' for at twenty-five,
when the American girl is just
at her best, the Argentine girl is passee,
growing corpulent and -coarse very
rapidly as sho approaches middle age.
Her habits are indolent,. and she is ad
dicted to the use of .rouge and powder
to such an extent that her original
complexion is entirely concealed.
EVEN CHILDREN SMOKED.
A Period In English History "When School
Boys Carried Their Pipes.
Everyone has read that Hawkins in
troduced tobacco and that James in
veighed against it. Elizabeth liked to
sit on a low stool and watch Sir Walter
Raleigh puffing away. Once she bet
him that he could not tell the weight
of the smoke in his pipe, but the phil
osopher won. In Anne's reign almost
everyone smoked. In, Charles II.'s
reign "children were sent to school
with their pipes in their satchels, and
the schoolmasters called a halt in their
studies while they smoked."
In 1702, says the Westminster Review,
Jorevin spent an evening with his
brother at Garraway's coffee house,
Leeds, and writes: "I was surprised to
see his sickly child of eight years old
fill its pipe of tobacco and smoke it as
audfarandly as a man of three score;
after that, a second and third pipe
without the least concern, as it is said
to have done above a year ago."
There were about four hundred and
seventy coffee houses in London, be
sides five chocolate houses, in Anne's
time. Smoking was general in them,
and intoxicants could be also obtained
as well as coffee. Bishop Trelawney
was much hurt because Bishop Barnett
had accused him of getting drunk in
one of them on the 30th of January a
day of grief to tories and all good
churchmen. -
INSURANCE ON ROYALTY.
PoUcles for Millions Taken Out by Roy
alties Dead or Alive.
The crowned heads of Europe seem
to take a good deal of stock in life in
surance. It is announced by the Bos
ton Herald that the king of Portugal
has just taken out a $200,000 policy on
his life, but that is an insignificant in
vestment compared with those of some
of the other potentates. The late Em
peror Frederick of Germany was in
sured for 84,000,000. . The queen regent
of Spain has her life insured for a large
amount, in behalf of her two little
daughters, following the example of
her husband, whose death mulcted the
various companies in which he was in
sured for $5,000,000. King Leopold of
Belgium's life is heavily insured, as ia
also that of Queen Victoria. The queen's
husband, the late prince consort, was
insured -for close upon $5,000,000, the
income of which has been enjoyed by
his widow. About the only sovereign
in Europe who is not insured is the czar
of Russia, the companies regarding him
as too unsafe a risk on account of the
nihilists.
King Asked for Sugar.
There is some uncertainty as to the
date of the introduction of sugar, but
it would appear that it was considered
a luxury in 1326, when Henry III.
asked the mayor of Winchester to get
for him three pounds of Alexandria
sugar, if so much could be had, and also
some rose and violet colored sugar. Be
fore the year 1400, however, it became
more plenty, and was sold at what
would be equivalent to from thirty
seven and one-half to seventy-five cents
per pound in American money.
SPIDERS' THREADS.
Shown by Tests to Be Correspondingly
stronger xnan cast iron.
Some interesting experiments were
made last summer on spiders' threads.
A thread having been obtained, one
end was carefully fixed with gum to a
support, and to the other end small
weights were gradually attached till it
broke. In order to compare,- from
these tests, the strength of the thread
with, say, steel thread of the same
thickness, it was necessary to deter
mine its diameter. This was done by
means of a-powerful microscope, and it
was found that it would require twenty-five
thousand threads to make a
sheet one inch broad.
"When it is remembered, says Cham
bers' Journal, ' that each of these
threads is composed of some four thou
sand strands the tenuity is seen to
be almost inconceivable, as it would re
quire one hundred million to make
one inch. As a result of these tests it
was found, incredible as it may seem,
that spiders' thread is, thickness for
thickness, actually stronger than cast
iron, nearly as strong as copper, gold,
platinum, silver, and about one-fifth
as strong as steel. It may not be gen
erally known that spiders' threads are
nsed to support small weights in sev
eral delicate scientific instruments, and
for this purpose they are much more
suitable than any other material.
