DEAFNESS CANNOT BE CUBED
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 constitu
tional remedies. Deafness is caused by an in
flamed condition of the mucous lining of the
Eustachian Tube. When this tube gets in
flamed ton have a rumbling sound or imper
fect hearing, and when it is entirely closed
deafness is the result, and unless the inflamma
tion can be taken out and this tuba restored to
its normal condition, hearing will be destroyed
forever; nine cases out ot ten are caused by
catarrh, which is nothing but an inflamed
condition of the mucous surfaces.

If the blood is in good condition at the beginning of the warm season,
yon are prepared to resist disease and are not apt to be troubled with boils,
pimples, blackheads and blotches, or the itching and burning skin eruptions
that make one's life a veritable torment and misery.
' Now is the time to begin the work of cleansing and building up the
Diooa ana strengtnenmg tne weak
places in your constitution. During the
cold winter months we are compelled
to live indoors and breathe the impure
air of badly ventilated rooms and of
fices. We over-work and over-eat, and
get too little out-door exercise, and our
systems become clogged with, impuri
ties and the blood a hot-bed of germs
and humors of every kind, and warm
weather is sure to bring a reaction,
and the poisonous matter in the blood
and system will break out in boils and
pustules or scaly eruptions and red,
disfiguring bumps and pimples. Make
a good beginning this season by taking
a course of S. S. S. in time ; it will not
only purify your blood and destroy the
germs and poisons, but promotehealthy
action of the Iyiver and Kidneys and
give you a good appetite at a time
when you need it most. .
S. S. S. improves the digestion and
tones up the Stomach, and you are not
continually taunted by the fear of
indigestion every time you eat, or
troubled with dizziness, nervousness
and sleeplessness. There is no reason
to dread the coming of warm weather if you have your system well fortified
and the blood in a normal, healthy condition. It is the polluted, sluggish
blood that invites disease germs, microbes and poisons of every kind and
bring on a long, train of spring and summer ailments, break down the con
stitution, and produce weakness, lassitude, and other debilitating disorders.
Eczema, Acne, Nettle-rash, Poison Oak and Ivy, and other irritating skin

"Tell me the symptoms," said Treves.

"Never you mind about the holes In

about It. They are the most useful
things In a coat. If there were no
holes in a coat, how the devil could you

Senator. "I certainly did," was the
reply. "May I ask you what you

ejaculated Jones. The young Senator's
face lighted up with pleasure at the
compliment as h resumed, in a con

youngest child, and I should like to
ask your advice. Having heard my
speech, you can see what I am capa

would be good enough to tell me
whether, In your opinion, It would be
better for me to speak frequently or
hold myself in reserve?" "Young

take my advice you won't make any

THE TUNE IS OUR OWN.
A Few Remarks Concerning onr Pat
riotic Books.
Many Americans In visiting England
have been surprised and flattered when
a British military band has played the
air of "America" and the English
crowd has risen to its feet and doffed
its hats. Similarly, English visitors
to this country have got up and bowed
as to a compliment when an American
band has blared the same tune. It has
taken time In each case to convince
the hearer that "God Save the King"
and "America" have the same air. ji
course, the Briton has become indig
nant over the theft of a national air,
forgetting that the colonies, with their
allegiance to a British king, had a
claim to the melody and on their re
volt could fairly set their own new
words to it.
The charge of theft and of musical
poverty In America has inspired a
patriotic association In little Rhode
Island to offer a gold medal to any
body who shall compose a new and
"a better" air to Dr. Smith's inspir
ing words. Rhode Island denies that
Great Britain Is musical, and affirms
that our own country (whose coon
songs as played by Sousa's band have
captured King and Queen, and become
the burden of every whistling news
boy, coster and clubman in London)
has a degree of musical talent and cul
ture which even Germany cannot rival.
Therefore it is Impatient under the
charge of stealing the most venerated
of British melodies.
It Is vain, however, to hope for a
popular acceptance of a new tune for
"America." The present air has been
sung on too many glorious and signifi
cant occasions to the words of our
heart-filling hymn to be surrendered 'to
the British. When we were forced
to break loose from that oppressive
mother we retained the common law,
the language, the absurd system of
weights and measures and whatever
seemed to our sires to be desirable. We
retained "Yankee Doodle" and the air
of "America," putting our own words
to each More than a century and a
quarter has endeared to ns these tunes,
and we shall keep them. When Gen
eral Sherman visited Ireland he found
that the melody of "Marching Through
Georgia" belonged to an old Irish song,
but it has been hallowed to us by the
camp-fires of thousands of Grand
Army posts and is ours beyond sur
render. ( "
Cultured musicians have complained
of, the quality of our national airs,
I which 'inciuAw "America," "Hail Co
lumbia." "Tne glte-Spangled Banner,"
"Columbia, the Gt'it the Ocean"
(which suggests that Columbia Is an
isle) and several war songs. Still, they
have not been able to produce a mel
ody of such conspicuous merit as to
win instant popular admiration. It
may be association alone which en
dears "America" to us, but there is
no escape from the fact that we all
love It and are stirred by It; and we
shall cling to it In .spite of any com
plaints from the unnatural mother
country which undertook to spank us
without provocation and lost us in con
sequence. Philadelphia Record.
INSTINCT TEACHES THEM.
Tounjr Birds and Animals Have Habit
Bora in Them.
There is a school of the woods, just
as much as there is a church of the j
woods, or a parliament of the woods,
or a Society of United Charities of the
woods, and no more; there Is nothing
in the dealings of animals with theii
young that in the remotest way sug-'
gests human Instruction and discipline.
The young of all the bird creatures
do instinctively what their parents do
and did They do not have to .be
taught; they are taught from the.
jump. The bird sings at the propei
age, and builds its nest, and takes its
appropriate food without any hint at
all from its parents. The young ducks
take to the water when hatched by a
hen as readily as when batched by a
duck, and dive and stalk Insects, and
wash themselves just as their mothers
did. I
Young chickens and young turkeys
understand the various calls and sig
nals of their mother the first time they
hear or see them. At her alarm note
they squat, at her call to food they
come, on the first day as on the tenth.
The habits of cleanliness of the nes
tlings are established from the first
hour of their lives. When a bird comes
to build its first nest and to rear, its
first brood It knows how to proceed,
as well as It does years later, or as
its parents did before it. The fox is
afraid of a trap before he has had any
experience with it, and the hare
thumps upon the ground at the sight
of anything strange and unusual,
whether Its mates be within hearing
or not It is true that the crows and
the jays might be called the spies and
Informers of the woods, and that other
creatures seem to understand "the
meaning of their cries, but who shall
presume to say that they have been in
structed in this vocation?
JMr. Long would have us believe tbat
the crows teach their young to fly,
writes John Burroughs in the Atlantic.
He might as well say that the rooster
teaches its young to crow or that the
cock grouse teaches the young males
to drum No bird teaches its young
to fly. They fly Instinctively when
their wings are strong enough.
BEETLE DIGS GRAVES.
How and Why It furies Dead Birds
. and Insects. -
The gravedigger beetle was the sub
ject of an Interesting experiment that
a young Philadelphian, a student of
the biological department of the Uni
versity of Pennsylvania, recently con
ducted, says the Philadelphia Record.
He secured four healthy gravedigger
beetles and put them In a wooden box
filled with earth, along with a very
small dead sparrow. The beetles no
sooner perceived the bird than they
began to dig alongside of it. For four
hours they dug, and at the end of that
time they had a hole made that was
six or seven Inches deep and three
inches square.
Now thy went around to the other
side ot the sparrow and gave, all to
gether, a good, strong push. The bird
dropped into the grave nicely and the
beetles covered it over with loose soil.
The young -experimenter kept the
beetles for a month. During the month
they buried fivebirds, three grasshop
pers, two butterflies and a young
mouse. Their box came to resemble a
cemetery.
"Why are these beetles gravedig
gers? What is their motive?"
To this question, which was put to
blm by many visitors, the student
would reply:
"Gravedlgglng is their way of prop
agating their species. They get hold
of some little dead thing, dig a hole
beside it, lay their eggs in its flesh and
bury it. The eggs, after a time, hatch
Into larvae. ' These larvae must de
velop under ground, and during their
development they must eat. Well,
thanks to their thoughtful parents,
they are born in the midst of food
they have on all sldes'bf them the car
rion in which, as eggs, they were laid
and buried and thus they feed boun
tifully, and grow big . and strong, so"
that on their emergence from the soil
they are beetles to be -proud of. And
as soon as they emerge they become
grave-diggers in their turn.
Broke Them of It.
Mr. Bilby's children, the youngest
nine and the eldest fourteen years of
age, besought his permission to raise
bantam chickens, pleading that there
was plenty of room in the barn for that
purpose.
"You have bothered me a long time
about that," he said. "Now I'll agree to
let you do It on condition that you quit
calling your parents papa and mamma.
You are old enough now to begin call
ing us father and mother Us you
should. If you will do that, you may
go ahead and turn the barn Into a
chicken house."
They gave the promise readily enough;
but It was harder to keep than they had
foreseen. ,
The next day, while a neighbor was
calling on Mr. Bilby, the children came
rushing from the barn into the house.
"Papa," they exclaimed, "come out
and "

CLEANLINESS AND GODLINESS.
Whatever You Do, Wise Brothers Advise
Good Teeth.
"Cleanliness is akin to Godliness,"
is a quotation from the greatest book
known to man, and it is as widely
quoted as any saying ever used. The
reason is found in the impressive truth
of the assertion.
At the present time when this coun
try is passing through an unprecedented
period of prosperity, more and more
attention is paid to the refinements of
civilization every day. If a man, or
particularly a woman, is slovenly now
in dress or personal care, they are im
mediately noticed and severely criti
cised. It U not hard as a rule to gain an in
come beyonl immediate wants, and the
majority of people in the United States
are accumulating a surplus. The peo
ple as a whole are better dressed and
better groomed than they were twenty
years ago. Even the luxuries of fash
ionable society are becoming the ne
cessities of the masses.
This is the result of a great commer
cial age with all its benefits.
Nothing is more conspicuous than a
person's teeth. If they are good and
white and clean then we are pleased.
If they are discolored or missing then
we are repulsed. The tremendous
blessing to humanity conferred by ad
vanced methods of dental surgery is
best illustrated by such an office as
that of the celebrated Wise Brothers, in
the Failing building, Portland, Oregon.
Here teeth are filled or extracted abso
lutely without pain. You can be sup
plied with an entire new set of teeth at
a very moderate cost. There is no
more trouble about getting your teech
put in perfect order here than yon have
at a restaurant in getting your dinner.
The offices are a model for anybody in
point of daintiness and cleanliness.
Let it be strenuously urged that, if
you want to get a.ong in the world and
be respected and desired by your ac
quaintances, have your teeth in good
condition. There is no excuse for any
one to delay when there are such per
fect places as the establishment of
Wise Brothers at hand.
