Clever Seamanship of a Captain In a Landlocked Harbor. “The greatest piece of seamanship ( ever saw,” said a rroveler, “was on a trip to Hal 1¢ was a marvel, and this is how it happened. “We were steaming along about twelve hours out from our destination one summer afternoon. It bhad been clear all day, and the sea was beauti- fully blue. but about ¢4 o'clock the fog began to shut down—one of those swift, dense fogs that come on that coast and shroud a boat from sight in less time than it takes to tell of it. Of course the fog whistles began to blow, and many of the passengers got nerv- ous under the strain of its continued bellowing. “After dinner I went up on the bridge and was permitted to stay. The captain would not enter into any con-. versation—that is, I could not talk to him, but in his restless pacing up and down the bridge he would frequently make a remark to me. It went on that way for hours, the fog as thick as steam and the whistle reiterating its mournful warning. “At length the captain gave a sharp order. ‘Two points, northwest by north,’ he said. ‘No, a little more— that’s right.' he finished as his com- mand was executed. 1 was bewilder- ed, and my face must have shown it as he passed me, for he vouchsafed the explanation that he wanted to pass within a few hundred feet of a cer- tain whistling buoy near the harbor. I said nothing, but I did not under- stand. Why, the night was so thick that it was hard work to see from the bridge to the rail. and what could he mean by making a buoy? “On and on we went, and always the fog seemed to me thicker. I could not sleep, and most of the night 1 was on the bridge. When it must bave been nearly morning a new whistling began to sound on our starboard bow, as nearly as 1 could judge. It was a fearful fog siren, and kept getting nearer and nearer. We had stopped whistling, and the passengers were ter- ribly frightened. I looked at one ex- naval officer who stood with me on the bridge, and his face was like a dead man’s. Mine must have been also. “Then, just as it seemed that some glant steamship must strike us, so close was the whistling, the fog lifted like a veil, and there, not 150 feet away, was the buoy that the captain had mentioned. “Almost at once the fog closed down again; but, do you know, he took us past two warships, into the landlocked harbor and up to the dock'in it. It was magnificent. and, though we really could not put our admiration in tan- gible form, we got together and gave him a gold watch on the return voyage as g little souvenir.”—New York Post.

The Face of the Bill, Not the Back, In- dicates Its Value. Despite the careful scrutiny given every bill that leaves the bureau of engraving and printing, a number of “freak” npotes find their way into cir- culation from time to time. Such a one was a note that once came to the subtreasury at New York. It had the imprint of a twenty dollar note on one side and of a ten on the other. But, in- asmuch as the face showed the tigures 20, $20 was the legal value of the bill. In most cases the “freak" bills that bave escaped the vigilance of the bu- reau’s officers are national banknotes, which, like the regular treasury notes, are printed there. As intimated al- ready, the face value is always recog- nized when the “freaks” come to be cashed at any branch of the treasury. The imprint on rhe back bas no lawful status whutsoever. The wnotes are printed in sheets. Usually therve will be one twenty and two tens ou a sheet. They are print- ed one side at a time, so it can readily be seen that the printer in turning over the sheet might get it upside down and thus put a ten dollar back on the twenty dollar note or a twenty oo the back or one of the tens. When errors are discovered the mis- printed sheet is laid aside to be de- stroyed. 1t cannot be torn up at once, for every xheet has to be accounted for. After some formalities it is ground into pulp. Almost all the “freak™ bills that have been issucd in the past bave found their way vack to the treasury, there to be destroyed. It is thought that very few ot them are now scattered about, and these are for the most part in the bunds of curio hunters.—Har- per's Weekly.

There is only one way to cure deafness, and that is by con- stitutional remedies. Deafness is caused by an inflamed condition of the mucous lining of the Eustachian Tube. When this tubeis in- flamed you have a rumbling sound or{m- perfect hearing, and when it is entirely closed, Deafness is the result, and_uniess the inflammation cau be taken out and this tube restored to its normal condition, hearin, will be destroyed forever: nine cases out o ten are caused by Catarrh, which is nothing but an inflamed condition of the mucous sur- aces. We will give One Hundred Dollars for any case of Deafness(caused by catarrh)that can- not be cured by Hall’'s Catarrh Cure. Send for circulars, free. F.J. CHENEY & CO., Toledo, O.
