Peafness is caused by an inflamed con

inflamed you have a rumbling sound or
imperfect hearing, and when it is entirely

the inflammation can be taken out and
this tube restored to its normal condi

nine cases out of ten are caused by

GEEAT GRIZZLIES.
The Immense Bears That Roam
the Woods of Manitoba.
Larger Titan Any Others of the Same
Family in the United state Though
Still to Be Found They Are Not So
. Numerous as Formerly.
Fifteen years agp, says a Manitoba
pioneer in the Chicago Times, the
grizzly bear was so plentiful among
the Manitoba Rockies that the Hudson
Bay company annually secured many
hundra Js of their skin3 from the army
of hunters and trappers that ha4 its
range in that wild region. But to-day
this fierce and ponderous beast no
where so fierce or of such enormous
proportions as among' the Manitoba
fastnesses is quite a rarity in its old
haunts, and I doubt if one can now be
come, upon without a difficult and
tedious journey of at least three hun
dred miles into the interior wilderness
of the province. The grizzly has met
with almost as hard a fate as the buffa
lo, although, from the nature and isola
tion of its present retreats and the
diilijultios attendant on hunting and
trapping for it, the grizzly: bear, like
the Manitoba moose, will never be
come extinct in that country.
1 know no reason why the grizzly
baar of the Manitoba Roakies should
prow so much larger than the grizzly of
tlia r-.ma mountains in the states, but a
lon and varied exparience in hunting
thesa animals in tiieir respective lo
calities has proved to me that such i3
the fact. No grizzly bear that I ever
captured, or that I ever knew to ba
captured south of Manitoba measurcJ
mora than seven feet and a half from
muzzle to tail or weighed more than
twelve , hundreds pounds. But it was
no uncommon thing in the palmy days
of grizzly bears in Manitoba for the
hunter or trapper to be confronted by
one of tfcese monsters nine feet in
length and with a bulk of fifteen bun
dred pounds or more. I have seen
Manitoba grizzlies that, when they
threw themselves on their haunches
and rose erect, towered five and six
feet above me, and I want to tell you
that it takes a man with large quan
tity and the best quality of nerve to
stand in that tremendous presence and
prepare to do battle coolly and with a
level head. Grizzly bears, like all the
rest of the bear family, have the curious
habit of rising against a tree, and,
reaching up as far as they can with
their forepaws, making marks in the
bark by digging in with their claws. I
have more than once come across these
measuring marks of a grizzly, as the
marks on the bark are called, twelve
feet above the ground. Imagine com
ing suddenly upon a beast like that in
some deep ravine or isolated spot al
most impassable owing to the down
timber heaped and tangled on the
ground and surrounded by rocks and
thick underbrush. The sight of his
great jaws, open and red, and his eyes
flashing in fury at you from the enor
mous head that towers so far above
you, is something only to be appre
ciated when once seen.
When there were buffaloes on the
plains Manitoba grizzly bears were
keen and persistent hunters of them.
When a grizzly and a buffalo met there
was sure to be a fearful contest, al
though it seldom lasted long, and the
buffalo was usually the victim. The
buffalo bull when confronted by a bear
would invariably charge ferociously
upon its big and ugly foe. This was
just 'what the bear desired and he
waited erect on his haunches the onset
of the buffalo. As the latter rushed
forward with lowered head and was
almost upon the bear, the immense
grizzly threw himself quickly to one
side and with a blow as quick as light
ning with one of his great forepaws
seldom failed to break his antagonist's
neck. A Manitoba grizzly has been
known to engage in rapid succession,
four and even five infuriated buffalo
bulls, and kill every one of them. It
sometimes happened though that a bull
younger and more agile than his com
panion succeeded in evading the fatal
blow of the grizzly's terrible paw long
enough to give in turn a deadly thrust
of his horn into the bear's side, punc
turing the vitals, and making the con
test a mutual slaughter.
In general characteristics, of course,
the Manitoba grizzly is not in any way
different from others of the family.
While I believe that a grizzly bear will
sometimes wait and precipitate a fight
with a man, and take pains to put him
self in the way of one, in the great ma
jority of cases he will take a second
thought about the matter and back
out. A queer instance of this disposi
tion came to my knowledge once where
a famous Manitoba guide courageously
advanced upon three grizzlies, an old.
she one and two half-grown cubs, and,
by a series of ridiculous monkey shines
and acrobatic maneuvers within a rod
or two of the threatening bears, filled
them with such astonishment and ap
parent fear that they retreated to the
woods as fast as they could go.
The hunter's gun had snapped in
both barrels, he having drawn on the
old bear before' the young ones came
upon the scene.' It was in a fit of
desperation that he tried the turning
of a handspring and "jumping up and
down, clapping his hands and resorting
to other unhunterlike measures. He
had been told once that a hunter had
frightened a mountain lion away by
similar absurd movements, and he
found that it worked to perfection in
the case of the three grizzly bears, but
he never, even in the face of thatfact,
advised 'or encouraged anyone to go
hunting Manitoba or any other kind of
grizzlies .armed with nothing more
than a capacity to turn . grotesque
somersaults.
Senator Harris' Plain. laving;.
Senator Harris, of Tennessee, is not
one of the' "bon vivants of the higher
body of national legislation. , He is
very democratic in his gustatory tastes;
a pair of hard-boiled eggs and a bottle
of beer oft the ice is his favorite lunch
in summer, and during the R months he
eats raw oysters covered with red pep
per, never forgetting the cold bottle of
beer. '.".'-,
AN ALL-NIGHT TOWN.
The Stores of Hamburg; Are Open Every
' Hour In the Twenty Four.
Hamburg Ihay be suitably described
as an all-night town. The cafes and
beer saloons do not shut until two in
the morning, while some of them, by
paying an additional license, are al
lowed to remain open all day and all
night. Many of the shops never close.
At three a. m. the tobacconists are still
open, and at this hour there are several
shops at which you can procure hot re
freshments sausages, so dear to the
German inner man, and the like. At
various points men station themselves
thronghout the night with the little
stoves on which they fry pork sausages
One may often see swell folk, ladies
included, chatting with these itinerant
vendors, and regaling themselves with
a somewhat odoriferous sausage at
three o'clock in the morning. The
bakers' shops seem to be always open,
says c a writer in Pearson's Weekly. I
visited one of the largest cafes at Ham
burg at the unearthly hour of three
thirty in the morning and there found
about three hundred respectable peo
ple calmly drinking their -coffee as if
it were broad daylight.' There was not
a single vacant table. Remember, it
was not a night club, but an orderly
cafe, where no unseemly scenes are
permitted. There are some curious re
strictions regarding the opening of
shops on Sundays in Hamburg. After
two-thirty o'clock a tobacconist may
only sell one cigar to one person;
should you require half a dozen smokes
you have to visit half a dozen shops or
take five friends with you to one estab
lishment and each of you buy one ci
gar. There is a heavy penalty for
breaking this rule. With the excep
tion of the restaurants and ( tobaccon
ists, only the dried fish shops arc to be
seen open after n two-thirty o'clock. As
the clock strikes midnight on Sunday
hundreds of shops are immediately
opened, and a brisk trade ensues. Be
tween midnight on Sunday and two
o'clock on Monday morning many
tradesmen do their best business of the
week, notwithstanding the fact that at
this hour nothing that cannot be
bought at any other time is really re
quired. .
PAPER CARPETS ARE COMING.
They Will Be Welcome in a Land Where
Dust and I&oth Prevail.
We have had a great variety of car
pet materials, first and last, and a good
many uses have been made of paper,
but the two have never before been
identified. Now, However, we are in
formed that carpets are being made of
paper, and the fallowing description of
the process is made public:
The stock used must be of long fiber,
says the Paper World, in order to give
strength to the paper. All such as are
to be colored must be dyed in the pulp
to obtain uniform color throughout.
Colors must be fast.
Every lot of the same color must
match to shade, as it cannot be
changed when once done. The paper
must be of uniform thickness thr ough
out the width and length of the rail, for
though color may be right, coarse yarn
will not shade alike. As the
yarn is twisted on a long frame,
the utmost cleanliness must be ob
served not to stain 'the yarn
with oil or dirty fingers, for,. ' un
like the otheryarn, it is not cleansed,
hence, if dirty and not discovered by
subsequent handling, it goes into the
carpet and to the consumer. . . . When
the rolls of cut paper are the desired
height, the shaft, is taken out, the
nut removed and the shaft drawn
out, leaving the paper, each strip with
its ring to be separated from the other
by a knife for that purpose. After
separation these little rolls are soaked
in water until thoroughly impreg
nated, then taken out and left to drain,
when " it is ready for the spinning
frame, and it is twisted like any other
yarn. The yarn is then dried, wound
into cops, and is then ready for the
loom.
Had Faith In His Watch.
The pride which a man takes in a
good watch rarely is carried to the limit
reached by a Chicagoan who has come
to the notice of the Record. He was a
man who had faith in his watch. This
was partly because he had paid a large
sum for it and partly because he was a
man who believed that things which
belonged to him must be good. because
they did belong to him. His friends
joked him about his faith, but he re
mained firm. When he went to take
the train from his -suburban home in
the morning he did it by his watch, and
when he left the big station downtown
in the morning he compared it with
the great clock in the tower to see if
the tower clock was right. When the
train pulled into the station one morn
ing the other passengers got up to
leave the car but the man remained
seated, "What's the matter. Mason?"
said one of his friends. "Aren't you
going to get off?" "No, sir," said Ma
son, consulting his timepiece. "I'm
not not until we arrive, at least. This
train doesn't get into the city until
8:16, and by my watch it's only 8:12."
The Speedy Moose.
. To one who knows nothing of big
game, it is amazing to see how fast a
moose can run, his stride being much
longer than a horse. . A light freight
train was running on the Northern
Pacific, in the upper part of Minnesota,
when the engineer saw a big moose
standing directly on the- track, and as
soon as the animal saw the engine he
took to his heels down the track.
There was a perfectly' straight run for
four miles, and the engineer deter
mined to test the speed of the moose,
of which he had frequently heard. At
first the gait of the moose was a sort of
trot, and even when the ' engine gained
speed the animal did not seem to exert
itself. ' Faster and faster sped the
engine, but still the moose trotted
ahead, and all the power of steam
could not prevail over this monarch of
the forest. . At last, after covering
four miles and turning a curve, they
came upon a gang of section, hands,
and the victorious moose leaped the
tracks and was lost to view in the
forest.
THE MATURE GIRL'S DAY.
At Last the Intelligence of Thirty Charms
Men. ,
There was a time our mother's day
when a girl over twenty-five was
looked upon as passe and unattractive.
She hated to tell her age, and it was
only under pressure that she could be
forced to admit that the twenties had
been left behind and the more ad
vanced period of life entered upon.
This was at a time when physical at
traction the bloom of youth was ihe
sole magnet that drew men to her
shrine, according to the Philadelphia
Times. As days have passed and men-,
tality has taken precedence over the
more evanescent qualities, it is 3iscov
ered that the riper mind, the richer in
telligence that belongs to the woman
of thirty is far more attractive than
the coy grace of the girl of eighteen or
twenty.
The charm of youth cannot be gain
said; the freshness, the naive, undevel
oped quality of experience still to be
gained is an attraction that will hold
sway as long as the world stands, but
its stronger and more definite foe is -to
be fonnd in the experience, the mental
quality and ripe understanding of a
woman who has passed through the
period when ingenuous simplicity is
the charm, and a new, warmer and
richer element has taken possession of
her personality.
PLENTY OF CABS IN LONDON.
The Withdrawal or Five Thousand of
Them Makes Ko Disturbance.
The recent withdrawal of five thou
sand cabs from the streets of London
on account of a strike of the cabmen
against the owners of the vehicles was
talked about with apprehension before
it occurred. When the cabmen finally
struck, it was found that the vast pas
senger traffic of London could be
handled easily by the cabs still in serv
ice. These figures give some idea of
the enormous number of cabs in the
English metropolis.
Pat Sheedy once remarked that there
were more cabs in London than there
were men in New York. The cabs and
horses are nearly all owned by the big
stables, and the cabmen pay about
three dollars and seventy-five cents a
day for the use of a cab and one horse.
The driver must feed his horse three
times a day, and it is by no means easy
for the cabmen to make a profit, since
one may travel two miles in any direc
tion in a cab in London for a shilling.
The public does not bother much about
elevated or underground roads in Lon
don. It is claimed there that they have
solved, the rapid transit problem by
having perfect pavements throughout
the city, so that the cabs run easily,
and the fares have been brought down
to a minimum.
