Deafness Cannot Be Cured by local applications, as they cannot reach the dis eased portion of the ear. There 1s only one way to Cure deafness, and that fs by constitutional remedies. Deafness 1s caused by an inflamed condition of the mucous lining of the Eustachian Tube. When this tube fs inflamed you have a rumbling sound or im- perfect hearing, and when {t {s entirely closed, Deat- ness is the result, and unless the inflammation can be taken out and this tube restored to its normal cond!- tion, hearing will be destroyed forever; nine cases out of ten are caused by Catarrh, which ts nothing but an inflamed condition of the mucous surfaces.

Edward King, bishop of Lin- coln, who is now nearly eighty, was once taking an airing at the seaside when he found some difficulty in- rising from his low chair. Seeing his predic- ament, a young fisher girl hastened to his assistance and helped his lordship to his feet. Dr. King was profuse in his thanks, but the girl, who had no idea of his identity, begged him not to mention it. “That’s all right, sir,” said she with a laugh. “I’m used fo it.

The greatest drawback to the hog industry which breeders in this coun- try have to contend with is what is known as “hog cholera” and “swine plague.” Hog cholera is a highly contagious disease and unless checked is liable to carry off a great number of hogs in a very short time. Mr. A. P. Williams, of Burnetts Creek, Ind., tells of an experience which he had with some hogs that had the cholera. “Five years ago,” says Mr. Williams, “I was in the em- ploy of Mr. J. D.

Great Building-Is a World in Itself |. and Able to Supply Its Own Needs—Little Cells Used as Offices. The more one finds out about the capitol at Washington the more one realizes that no other building in this country approaches it in interest. There are other buildings which are big or beautiful or historic. But for size, beauty and constantly growing historical importance, all rolled to- gether, the grand old capitol sits su- preme. Any one who has tried to find out things about the building has had con- vincing proof of its complexity. The number of things which any one of- ficial does know about it is surpassed only by the number of things he does not know. The place is a labyrinth in more ways than one. There are out of the way corners, queer little rooms, winding stairs, dusty attics, and a vast underworld of which even the congressmen them- selves never dream. As for the tour- ist, he gets a crick in the back of his neck by taking a groundhog view of the dome, acquires another crick—this time in his artistic perception—by viewing some of the ornaments of Statuary hall, plunks himself—though it is generally herself—into the vice- president’s chair, if the gentleman himself is absent, and gulps a few facts about Uncle Joe’s domain in the house. But there are volumes of history and acres of space which he does not suspect, much less inspect. There are over 430 rooms in the capitol. They range in size from the hall of the house of representatives, which is 139 by 93 feet, to mere scraps of rooms hardly large enough to hold a table and a couple of chairs. Some of these little rooms are prac- tically within the great walls which form the foundations of the rotunda. They are mere cells, circular in shape, but have served nevertheless as the private offices of congressmen. Just what will be done with them now that the representatives have their offices:in the new building is not definitely decided, but the whole capi- tol is so crowded that every inch of space will be needed. Another cubbyhole of importance is just inside the entrance to the ground floor of the house wing. It is tucked in under the stairs, and probably not one in a hundred of those who pass so close to it knows of its existence, This is the key room. It is fitted up with all the paraphernalia of a locksmith’s shop, that being precisely what it fs. When in his absorption in the cares of state a representative ‘has left his | desk key in his other clothes, or has lost it- outright, the locksmith comes to the rescue. He has complete sets of duplicate keys not only for the house desks but for committee rooms as well. If the emergency is only temporary he opens the desk with a duplicate key. If the original is actually lost he makes another to take its place. As ‘this service is entirely free per- haps the congressmen are more care- less than the ordinary individual who has to pay for a similar job. At any rate they do say that the locksmith is one of the busiest men in the building. Washington Not “Fast.” Is Washington somnambulistic? The pink cravat third-year-university- turned-up trousers youth, who decor- ates the country’s summer resorts with Washington as his residence and his father the honorable Mr. So and So would have it so, according to his tales of midnight revels—hor- ribly, beastly fast and “everything is deliciously quiet, you know, too.” Such stories also may be heard from tem- porary winter residents hailing from down east or across the Susquehanna. Here’s the testimony of one, how- ever, who, in many respects, might speak with authority. Some weeks ago a police reporter of a well-known New York newspaper was in the city covering a murder trial. He was in the habit of taking his dinner at an upper well-known Pennsylvania ave- nue hostelry, and the first evening he entered the dining room he was greeted from behind his chair: “Good evening, Mr. Smith.” “Why, where did you come from, Louis?” replied the re- porter, recognizing in his waiter a fa- miliar face. “From the Bozart, sir. Two weeks ago, sir.” “What's the mat- ter—lose your job?” “No, sir. Came down here, sir, to get some sleep, sir. I can’t stand it more than three weeks, sir, so I'm going back and I’m going to stay, sir.” Department’s Distinction. Among the numerous applicants tc Representative Bartholdt for a job was a young St. Louisan, who was not dis- couraged by the statement that gov- ernment jobs do not go by favor any more, but by the appointment of the civil service commission. He took the examination some time ago and recent: ly was notified by the forestry de partment to report for duty. He felt somehow under obligations to Con greSsman Bartholdt and called upon him to give the glad tidings of his jot and to thank the representative. Mr. Bartholdt disclaimed having done any: thing in the affair, but said that he congratulated the young man. “You are peculiarly fortunate,” sai¢ Mr. Bartholdt. “The forestry depart ment is the only one in which grafting is regarded as a legitimate occupation.’ | CURED HER CHILDREN. -/ Girls Suffered with itching Eczema— Baby Had a Tender Skin, Too— Relied on Cuticura Remedies. “Some years ago my three little girls had a very bad form of eczema. Itching eruptions formed on the backs of their heads which were simply cov- ered. I tried almost everything, but failed. Then my mother recommended the Cuticura Remedies. I washed my children’s heads with Cuticura Soap and then applied the wonderful oint- ment, Cuticura. I did this four or five times and I can say that they have been entirely cured. I have another baby who is so plump that the folds of skin on his neck were broken and even bled. I used Cuticura Soap and Cuti- cura Ointment and the next mornitie the trouble had disappeared. Mme.

The report of the Salvation Army anti-suicide bureau started in London a year ago shows that 1,125 men and 95 women applied to the bureau during the last twelve months, says Medical Record. Most of these belonged to the mid- dle classes, and more than 50 per cent of the men attributed their distress to financial embarrassment or poverty; 11 per cent to drink, drugs and dis- ease, and 21 per cent to accidents, sickness and other misfortunes. Two-thirds of the women were suf- fering from melancholia, caused by poverty, and the remainder from drugs and drink. The bureau was founded for the purpose of giving advice and encouragement, but no direct financial aid. Its managers estimate that about threé-quarters of those who applied were diverted from their purpose.
