Effect Of Sea Wa ter in The Ears.

AS 1t is the season for sea bath.
ing, and the surf at the favorite
resorts is full of swimmers, it is
timely to talk of possible i'll effect
of the salt water. If you don't
wish to run the risk of becoming
deaf, take handful Of cotton with
you and when you go in bathing
put plugs OF cotton in your ears.
This may save you from ear-ache
and perhaps from more serious
trouble. DR.. Samuel Sexton, Sur
geon.in. Chief to the New York
Ear Dispensary, in a recent COM
munlcation to the Medical Record,
estimates that thousand people
of New York city are sent to their
physicians, to be treated for ear
diseases, every year, whose trouble
has arisen from getting water in
their ears while bathing or from
catching cold at such times from
exposure or neglect.
1t appears from the DOCTORS re-
searches that salt water is pecul.
iarly irritating to the delicate
structures of the inner ear. Very
cold water Of the freshest kind
may, however, be equally harmful,
and there is q short list of cases re-
sulting from the Russian bath, two
of the patients being themselves
physicians. A few instances are
cited where the trouble came from
using the so-called "nasal douche;"
water having penetrated TO the ear
by the passage from the back of
the mouth. But those are uni m
portant compared with those
where trouble has come from salt

water bathing. In all of 65 OF the
lastsnamed cases Inflammation oo-
Cured; in 81 1t was acute. A va
riety of subsequent damages may
accrue when the trouble spreads;
permanent deafness IL not among
the least OF these AMI life itsolf
may be endangered.
Surf bathers are especially ex-
posed to such injuries, since O
breaker may strike them on the
side of the head and drive the water
into the ear; the same result may
ensue II the bather gets u sudden
mouthful from an unexpected wave,
the water then being forced from
the mouth to the inner ear. Man,
the doctor thinks, is not naturally
amphibious. Animals fitted for
aquatic life are provided with va
rious arrangements for keeping the
water out; seals, for instance, have
a movable membrane In the ear,
which closes and shuts out the
fluid. The muscles of the water
shrcw are competent to shut the
ear-passages. People who are
blessed with very small openings
of their ears run the least risk in
bathing. A man should never dive,
says lhe doctor, IL he wishes to
preserve his hearing: When in the
surf, he should take the wave on
his chest or back, closing his
mouth and nostrils;" though how
o man can close his nostrils, the
doctor does NOT state Rut the
pledget of cotton for the ears is es-
sential and every bather should be
provided with it.

COURTSHlP MADE EASY.
A Germans Plan for Courting BY Wholesale.

A German has hit upon plan by
which large number of girls can
be courted at the same time In one
room, and thinks parents with
many daughters will hail him
benefactor. The invention Is based
on the theory that "courtship re-
quires a parlor, a sofa, subdued light
and seclusion." The inventor con-
structed in his house retiring
room styled "the lovers retreat"
This apartment Is exquisitely fur
nished. Soft velvet pile carpets
cover the floor. Elegant couches
are placed here and tharo, aud as
you sit down, the soft swelling
tones of a musical box ascend from
below, and agreeably startle you.
At one end of the room is q bay
window, filed with all kinds of
plants, exhaling delicious odors,
and presenting a rare picture of
loveliness. Around the room are
placed three statuettes-one Of
Psyche, one of Cupid, and one of
Venus.
Through o small window in one
corner of the room, filled with pale
pink glass, a flood of softly tinted
light falls upon the statuettes, and
gives them q life like coloring. In
the centre of the ceiling, which is
beautifully frescoed, is u magniti.
cent blush rose, to imply that all
that happens there is SUB rosa. A
silver fountain in the csntre of the
apartment scatters odoriferous
spray on the air, a gold basin re
eeiving it as u falls. Sentiments
from Schiller, Goethe, Shakespeare,
and other famous poets, are scat
tered among the fresco work.
These "thoughts that breathe and
words that burn" are arranged ac-
cording to their intensity. All
bear on the subject of love. The
negative sentiments are painted on
black ground, the next in order
on a purple, and so on, until the
glowing utterances of intense afec-
ton are imbedded in q setting of
warm crimson. These sentiments
are numbered.
At one side of the door stands a
statue of Venus, and at the other
a statue of Adonis. On the ex-
tended right hand of each rests a
plate, and on that plate are EN-.
bcssed cards, bearing numbers to
correspond with the sentiments on
the walls. By means of these cards
and sentiments, O dozen mute low
ers may converse at o time, with
cut disclosing their secret thoughts
to stran gers, or interfering with the
love making of others. AS proof
that the Germans plan is practi-
cal, it may be stated that his eldest
daughter was married the other ~
at the early age of nineteen. Some
of the other girls are betrothed,
and there are scores of applicants
for the hands of the rest just as
soon as they get old enough.

DR.. Walters, Of Boston, author Of
the alkaline treatment for burns,
recently said in an essay read be-
fore medical society: "Apply to
the burned surface bicarbonate of
soda, if it is a wet surface, in fins
powder; but If it is q dry burn, use
a paste of bicarbonate of soda and
water, or q strong solution of the
bicarbonate of soda in water, and
apply to the burned surface. This
relieves sun.burns as we'll as burns
from hot Goals, melted sulphur, hot
iron and steam. Always dispose
the burned surface so that the
blood can gravitate toward the
heart, If possible, as otherwise q
continuous pain may be felt, due to
the dilatation of the blood vessels
from the weight OF the contained
blood"

DEVELOPMENTS in cur oil terri
tory are reported from every side.
The MACPHERSON strike, near the
Pico, is highly interesting and en-
cages attention. The outcome in
the Sespe also promises to be graft
flying. Daring the late cessation
of work in the claim of The Los An
geles Oil Company, in the Sespe,
the oil rose from height Of eighty
five feet to one hundred and forty.
We should not be surprised If we
were called upon to record reg

FEW people of Judgment have
ever di sputed the political sagaclty
of Mr.. Wendell Phillips. He has
been extreme and uncompromis-
ing, but 1t has often been re-
that he has always been
about a year in advance of his
party. Mr.. Phillips, in "The Out
lookn series which he is contribut-
ing to the North Am erican Revie,o,
says that, while he is aware that
there may be slip between the
cup and the lip, the chances are
about three in four that the Demo-
Gratis will elect the next President.
We think that Mr.. Phillips, In
this estimate, exhibits his usual
sagacity. We are inclined to go
further, and to express the opinion
that every intelligent, self-respect-
ing Republican should hope that
this would be the case. We can
think Of nothing so fatal to the fu-
ture of a party and Republic as
the establishment of the doctrine
that no excesses of political dishon.
esty and arbitrariness are suffi-
cient, in the United States, to re.
tire a party from power. When We
have reached such a pass that q
game of political thimblerig, play
ed unblushingly for thirteen years,
in the face of the world, fails to
disgust free people, it is time
that, asa Republic, we should be
tucked into our little bed, to sleep
forever.
