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.
7eafness 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, aud unless
the inflammation can be taken out and
this tube restored to its normal condi
tion , hearing will be destroyed forever;
nine casns out of ten are caused by
.catarrh, which is nothing but an in
flamed condition of the mucous surfaces.

any case of Deafness (.caused by catanh)

THE TELEPHONE NUISANCE.
How a Man Got Bid of Neighbors Who
Wanted to Use Hi 'Phone.
"A business friend of mine has
finally succeeded in ridding' himself of a
great nuisance," said Earnest F. Ed
wards, of Boston, who was at "the
Southern, to the St. Louis Globe-Democrat.
"His office happens to - be on a
floor in a building ' where there are a
large number 'of 'tenants, but no other
telephones besides his own. The re
sult is lie has been for months bored to
death, by telephone deadbeats, " many
of whom have used his telephone a
great deal more than he has. The
nuisance got so bad at last that it was
quite usual to have two.: visitors wait
ing for each other at the 'phone. He
tried various devices for a long time,
but finally took, the company into his
confidence and got them to give him a
new number, but not to change the
plate on the 'phone. He specially noti
fied central on no account to connect
anyone who called up the old number.
The scheme worked like a charm. For
a day or two tHe nuisance was in
creased by the importunities of pa
trons of his telephone and their indig
nant protests when they failed to se
cure connection. It did not take long,
however, for them to realize that the
telephone was of no further use to
them, and the way my friend echoed
their protestations and lamentations
was most interesting. He has the tele
phone all to himself now, and is not
troubled in any way."
ANCIENT AZTEC RUINS.
Little Known Remains In the Mountain
Regions of Arizona.
An old-time prospector lately arrived
in Prescott, A. T., for a three months'
sojourn in one of the most interesting
and least-known portions of the terri
tory, says the St. Louis Globe-Demo
crat. The wonderland from which, he
has returned is the country lying be
tween the Mazatlan and Verde ranges
of mountains. Mr. Court thinks that
section contains more Aztec ruins than
any other portion of America, evi
dences of human habitation being
found from the highest peak to the
lowest valleys. In one place he found
a road or street of three miles in
length, -perfectly smooth and straight
and sixty feet in width. On either side
of the street, the entire distance, are
ruins. The road was evidently built
prior to some mighty earthquake, as it
ends abruptly at the brink of a yawn
ing chasm. He dug up and found ly
ing about a great number of skeletons,
which were in a fair state of preserva
tion, the heads of all being alike, very
large over the eyes and receding and
almost flat toward the back of the
head, jaws well developed, but front
upper and lower teeth short and sharp.
The ruins show the people to have
been workers in stone, some fragments
of work . in turquoise being found.
Every available foot of land had once
been cultivated. The region, although
little heretofore has been known about
it, is very accessible, and will no doubt
become an interesting resort for trav
elers.
ONE OF CHINA'S CITIES.
Canton, Where the Plagne Comes From,
and It Isn't Surprising.
A line or two from Mrs. Archibald
Dunn's new book . gives a striking pic
ture of the horrors of life in Canton.
'"The circumference of the city walls
measures from six to seven miles, and
within their inclosure there exist one
million Chinese people. I had been in
many oriental cities and had smelt
many oriental smells, but those of Can
ton," says Mrs. Dunn, "were giants to
them all. The passage-like streets are
open sewers, every description of refuse
being cast into them and forming con
tinuous heaps on either side of the way.
The water supply is raised from wells
in the streets, the mouths of which are
on a level with the ground, and a
shower of rain, or drippings from the
buckets in which they lift it must carry
back the surrounding filth in a way
horrible to think of. Through miles
and miles of these high, narrow alleys
did we travel, through the most fetid,
airless atmosphere that human lungs
could copd with, through the most evil
and noisome, odors that could assail hu
man nostrils, past the most loathsome
sights in the shape of abnormal butcher
meat such as dogs and cats, skinned
and dressed ready for cooking; rats,
both dried and hanging alive by the
tails; frogs and unnatural-looking fish
in tubs of water, alive, and awaiting
death and consumption."
Uncomfortable Corean nouses.
The "kang," the Corean house fur
nace, renders the atmosphere of the
inns where travelers take their rest,
almost insufferable. It is pictured as
a primitive, though effective, means of
heating the houses throughout the
kingdom. A small fire of brushwood
is lighted in the small furnace at one
side of the house, thence numerous
flues under the mud floor conduct the
smoke and hot air to an upright
chimney or hole in the wall at the op
posite end or side, and a little fire
suffices to thoroughly heat a large
house. Capt. Cavendish says he is not
surprised to find coughs and colds
common, for an indoor temperature of
seventy or eighty degrees and an
outdoor one of zero form trying ex
tremes. Moreover, the. constant
warmth seems to keep alive the numer
ous flies,, fleas, bugs and -cockroaches
with which most of the houses swarm.
Origin of the Chinese Cue.
It seems that it was not the custom
of the ancient Chinese to shave the
head and wear a cue. That was a cus
tom brought in by the Tartar invaders,
nearly three hundred years ago, and
they forced it upon th'e conquered
provinces. The result was that many
Chinese were driven into Corea, and
the inhabitants of that province when
they yielded to the suzerainty of the
Tartars stipulated that they should be
permitted to preserve their ancient
dress. So the Coreans do not shave the
head, but wear their hair as their an
cestors wore it four thousand years
ago, a manner which is seen in China
only on the stage.
HAD A POWER OF ETERNITY.
Mike Was Weak In Legal Lore But Strong
In Dog and Gun.
"Speaking of the term 'power of at
torney,' " said a well-known lawyer
the other .day. to a New -- York Evening
Sun man, "reminds me of a Tittle inci
dent that occurred to Judge - - and
myself last spring up in Sullivan coun
ty. We were out for a week's trouting
and determined to poach on the pre
serves of a fishing club which had se
cured control of the river for a distance
of several miles and where public fish
ing was strictly forbidden. We knew,
that part of the creek was guarded by
an old Irishman in the employ of the
club, , who patrolled the '"banks, accom
panied by a f erocious-lcrokhrg- bull dog
and a gun identified with -the revolu
tionary period, but we- decided to take
chances rather than return with empty
creels. So on the following- morning,
just at the peep of day, we sneaked up
the creek, - through the woods, and
struck in at a point just out of sight of
the " clubhouse. We had a glorious
time until about nine o'clock and had
filled our creels to the crowding point
when suddenly old Mike, with his dog
and gun, appeared on the opposite
bank. 'Hey, ye divils! Come out o
thot!' he shouted. We pretended not
to hear, meanwhile edging over toward
the opposite bank.
' 'At yez don't come out Oi'll sici me
dog on yez!' roared Mike. This time I
looked up, but pretended not to under
stand. ' 'Yes!' I shouted back, 'it's a fine
day!'
"A foine day is it?' bellowed the
irate Celt: 'Shure ye '11 think it's a
dommed bad day if yez don't come over
here out o' thot!' And Mike began to
finger the antique musket ominously.
I began to think it was time to tempor
ize.
"By what authority do you order us
out of this stream?' I asked as severely
as I could.
" 'Be what autoority is it!' screamed
Mike, 'be what autoority? Shure an'
I'd have yez know thot I've full power
av eternity over the creek, an' av yez
don't come out I'll blow the top o' yer
heads off!'
"This was too much. We didn't mind
the dog or the gun, but a 'full power of
eternity' was something we didn't Want
to contend with, so we yielded and left
tfce stream."
WHY HE QUIT GAMBLING.
A Virginian Who Was Ashamed of Him
self for Winning.
That a man should look after money
lost in gambling with penitent eyes
and vow never again to be tempted to
like sinful foolishness seems not so
strange. But Gen. Maury, in his "Rec
ollections of a Virginian," tells how
he was led to a similar decision by an
opposite experience. The occurrence
took place while he was an instructor
at West Point.
We had a very jovial and humorous
set of young officers at the academy for
several years after the Mexican war,
and great kindness of feeling prevailed.
We played whist, dime points, faro and
brag at the same moderate rate. It was
noted that at faro we almost invaria
bly broke the bank.
One winter I was laid up for many
weeks by an injury to my leg, received
while riding, and my room, during all
that time, was the gathering place
after dinner. The card table was
drawn up . to my bed, and I played my
hand until tired and sleepy.
One night we were playing brag, and
as I became drowsy, little Frank Clarke
said he would play, my hand for me
while I slept. When I awoke, the next
morning, I found under my pillow the
greatest amount I had ever won at
cards.
I reflected that it was a demoralizing
amusement; that avarice, the basest of
human passions was its moving im
pulse; that often, at the card table, I
observed some show of feeling that
left an unpleasant remembrance against
a comrade, and that none of us could
afford to win or lose even a few dollars;
so I ceased all play for money, and have
been glad of it ever since.
DO FISH FEEL PAIN?
Analogy Points to the Conclusion That
Hooking Is Mot Pleasant.
There is little doubt, remarks the
Pall Mall Gazette, that the talk about
fish feeling little pain when they are
hooked and killed, or hooked and lost,
is chiefly cant. All analogy points to
the conclusion that it must be extreme
ly unpleasant for a fish, however cold
blooded a creature he be, to be caught
on a hook and dragged out of his
element. At the same time it seems to
be an established fact that fish in many
cases soon forget the wounds inflicted
by a hook.
A pike struck - hard by a many
hooked minnow has been known to
come again at the bait in a few min
utes; and Mr. - Halford, in one of his
books, tells us that he once left a
wickham in a grayling of about three
pounds, which about a quarter of an
hour later he hooked and killed with
another fly. An autopsy having been
performed the wickham was discov
ered in the stomach of the grayling,
together with a great mass of partially
digested natural flies. A ' treacherous
hook broke in the mouth of a Wye
trout the other day. Yet the fish rose
again in about an hour's time, and was
duly brought into the creel a beauti
ful healthy pounder, with a wound- in
the mouth, caused by the broken hook,
it had managed to dislodge.
How Beetles Defend Themselves. -
Beetles have other defenses than
their cuirass, such as nauseous or caus
tic liquids which they expel on provo
cation, and an English scientist has
found that certain beetles actually
exude their blood, charged with nox
ious products. So far he finds the prac
tice confined to the chrysomelides, some
of the timarchse, adamonia, the coccine
lidce and the meloidss. The blood of
the eoccinelidse has a strong disagreea
ble odor like that of the whole insect;
that of the timarchse is odorless but
has an astringent flavor, and in the
case of the timarchso primeliodes is
venomous. The tlood of the meloidse
contains much cantharidine.
