Catarrhal Deafness-Hay Fever-A New
Home Treatment.

Sufferers are not generally aware that
these diseases are contagious, or that they
are due TO the presence of living parasites
in the lining membrane Of the nose and
eustachian tubes Microscopic research,
however, has proved this to be q fact, and
the result of this discovery is that a simple
remedy has been formulated whereby
Catarrh, Hay Fever and Catarrhal Deafness
are permanently cured IN from one TO three
simple applications made at home BY the
patient once IN two weeks.
n B.-This treatment is not snuh or an
eminent: both have been discarded by
reputable physicians as injurious. A pamph-
let explaining this new treatment is sent on

HOW DIMES ARE MADE
How the Little Coins Are Turned Out by
the San RrancMco Mint.

the san Francnco Mint
The silver dime is useful little coin,
and just at present they seem to be In
demand; so much 50 that the San Fran
cisco mint is turning them out at
great rate.
The process OF dime-making is an
interesting one. The silver bullion is
FIRST melted and run into two-pound
bars. These in turn are run through
immense rollers and Aattened out TO
the thickness of the coin These sill
yer strips are then passed through a
machine, which cuts them into proper
size for the presses. the strips first
having been treated with a kind OF
tallow to prevent their being scratched
In their passage through the cutters
The silver pieces are then put into
the feeder OF the printing presses, and
are fed to the die by automatic ma
chinery at the rate Of 100 per minute,
$4,000 dimes being turned out In q
regular working day Of eight hours.
As the smooth pieces are pressed
between the ponderous printing dies,
they receive the lettered and figured
4, apression in a manner similar to that
paper pressed upon a form OF
tyg gaAt the same time, the piece Is
expa,B.ed in slight degree, and the
small corrngations are cut into its rim.
The machine, drops the completed
coin into receiver, and it is ready for
the counters hands. The instrument
used by the counter Is not a complicat-
ed machine by any means, as one might
suppose. II is a simple c0pper-colored
tray, having raised ridges running
across its surface at distance apart
the exact width OF dime.
From the receiver the money Is
dumped on the board or tray, and as 1t
Is shaken rapidly by the counter the
pieces settle down into the spaces be-
tween the ridges. All these spaces be-
ing filled, the surplus coin is brushed
back into the receiver, and the counter
has exactly 1880 dimes, or S125, on his
tray, which number is required to fill
the spaces. The tray is then emptied
into boxes, and the money is ready for
shipment.
The dime does not pass through the
weigher's hands, as does the coin Of q
larger denomination. One and one
half grains is allowed for variation, or
tolerance" in all silver coins from q
dollar down, and the deviation from
the standard in the ten-cent pieces is
so trifing that the trouble and expense

STYLISH PARAsoLs.
Novelties Produced for the Coming Spring
and Summer Seasons.

Novelties Produced for the Coming Spring
and Summer Seasons.
The new parasols for spring and
summer are covered faille or armure
silk in plain colors or richly brocaded,
or with striped silks. plaids or bord-
cred patterns. and very dressy para
soils have thin gauze, silk muslin or
net covers brocaded with tinsel in de-
signs like embroidery. The handles
are Of natural woods holly, acacia,
bamboo, cherry or ebony-with curl
ously twisted hoops or large hooks or
knobs at the end. or else they are
quantity carved and tipped with silver
or gold. Coaching parasols and those
for general use have handles that ex-
tend fourteen inches beyond the edge
of the silk cover when closed. The
Directoire parasols to be used with
walking toilettes have much longer
handles, like walking-stlcks, extend
ing eighteen inches beyond the cover,
and these handles are now put to-
gether with screw joint so that they
may be taken apart and doubled
small enough to go into a very
small trunk. Rich brocades of the
last century in dull colors and with
metallic designs are appropriate COW
ers for these parasols when meant for
dress, while for morning walks the
striped and bordered silk covers are
used. A novel feature inside the new
Cleopatra parasols is ribbon trim
ming winding around the stretchers
that hold the parasol open as they ra-
diate from the stick; when the parasol
is closed these ribbons show beyond
the tips, and cluster of loops is
formed around the stick, giving full,
bunchy effect that Is considered very
stylish.
Faille parasols OF green or Of gray
shades are made to correspond with
many Of the spring stuffs for dresses.
Striped parasols must be striped
around irGtead Of down the breadths,
and those with wide stripes are pre-
ferred. The ferule at the top is very
long, and is pointed in parasols that
have cane handles Black parasols

The Flag with Forty.two stars.


Various arrangements have been pro-
posed for the new United States flag
when the four additional states come In.
The present flag contains upon the blue
union the thirty-eight stars arranged In
five rows across the field, three rows con-
tanning eight stars each and two rows
with seven stars each. In arranging the
forty-two stars it has been suggested
that there be six rows containing seven
stars each. Another suggestion is that
there be three rows containing eight
stars each, as at present, and two rows
with nine stars. But this would neces-
state changing the proportions Of the
blue field. which must not be done A
third proposition is to change the ar
rangement Of the stars altogether, and
instead Of in rows place them In the
form Of a six pointed star. This is the
suggestion Of the editor of The Youths
Companion.
