purchased them from my druggist, and obtained
almost immediate relief. began to notice the
scaly eruptions gradually dropped of and disap

UPON THE HEARING.
Showing the Connection and the Signs Of
Progress.

Showing the Connection and the Signs Of
Progress.
A large proportion of the troubles of the
ear may be traced to catarrhal affections.
Many sufferers from catarrh will testify to
the peculiar effect that the disease seems to
have even in its early stages upon the hear
ing. The roaring and buzzing in the ears is
one of the most familiar symptoms to ca
tarrhal sufferers.
Sometimes the sound which they hear in
their ears is described by them as "steam
going out of pipe, ''the sound of a great
waterfall, )" sounds of water overhowing," f"
or ''steam from locomotive" as buzzing,
singing, ringing and cracking; sometimes like
the sounds in a shell held at the ear or the
bursting OF bubbles.
Sometimes the sounds are Of a beating,
pulsating, throbbing character. in cases keep
ing time with the regular beating of the heart.
Sometimes there are several different sounds
such as pulsating and buzzing together, in some
cases the sounds are so intense as to render life
a burden, and there are instances on record
where the distracted sufferers have resorted to
suicide to rid themselves of them.
There can be no more important predispos-
ing or exciting cause in producing ear diseases
than catarrh in the nose and throat. The symp-
toms of catarrh itself can hardly be mistaken.
In many cases the patients have pains about
the chest and sides, and sometimes in the back.
They feel dull and sleepy; the mouth has bad
taste especially in the morning. A sort of
sticky slime collects about the teeth. The APP
petite is poor. There is a feeling like heavy
load on the stomach, sometimes faint. all
gone" sensation at the pit of the stomach,
which food does not satisfy The eyes are
sunken, the hands and feet become cold and
clammy.
After a while cough sets in, at first dry, but
after few months it is attended with green
ish-colored expectoration. The patient feels
tired, all the while, and sleep does not seem to
afford any rest. After time he becomes ner-
vous, irritable and gloomy, and has evil fore
bodings. There is giddiness, a sort of whirl-
ing sensation in the head when rising up sud-
denly. The bowels become costive, the skin is
dry and hot at times; the blood becomes thick
and stagnant; the whites of the eyes become
tinged with yellow; the kidney secretions be-
come scanty and high-colored, deposltlng sed-
iment after standing. There is frequently
splitting up of food, sometimes with sour taste
and sometimes with sweetish taste, this IS fire.
quently attended with palpitation OF the heart
and asthmatic symptoms.

A GREAT SURPRISE.
The Pee uIiar Story Told by Mr.. B.
Loudar.
A SENSATION IN THE EAST END.

"Mine was a trouble of four years stand
ing, said Mr.. Loudar, "and I never ex-
pected to be free from it.
The speaker was Mr.. B. Loudar, who
lives on Homes avenue, McClintock's plan,
East End. He is gardener for Mrs. Will
lam Carr, whose beautiful residence is sit
uated at the intersection Of Penn and Fifth
avenues, at what is known as Point Breeze.
Gas is usual" continued Mr.. Loudar,
/ "my trouble came on with cold, and soon
developed, through lack of care, into a
chronic case of catarrh.
"My head became stopped up, first one
nostril would clog up and then the other.
My head ached constantly. A dull, heavy
pain over the eyes. There was constant
ringing and buzzing sensation in my head.
Ny eyes were weak and discharged watery
substance. There was constant dropping
of matter into my throat
Gradually the disease extended to my
throat and chest. My throat became sore,
and was often so liberated that 1 could not
swallow my food. had terrible pains in
my chest and side extending to the shoulder
blades. These would be accompanied by a
burning heat, and the pain would often ex-
tend around to the small of my back. My
heart would beat rapidly and then slowly.
This would always be followed by feeling
of dizziness and faintness.

bade him kindly farewell, as he was push
ing on to Quebec with the early morning.
The house was closed-nearly all the houses
were closed. The place was quiet-except
for the eternal thunder of the falls; and
that sound seemed somehow to make the
silence elsewhere more deep. 1t was night
of autumn.
Hugh began to mediate over the continual
change in the shape of the falls; over the
frequent landsllps and the crash of table
rock and all the other phenomena of which
the old man had told him. His mind tried
to form picture of the scene when after the
lapse of long generations there were to be
no more falls, and of the various changes in
the landscape which would have to be gone
through first. The subject had sort of
strange fascination for him. 1t entranced
him; it appalled, him. He flung himself on
the ground, near enough to the edge to have
a good view but not near enough to be In
any apparent danger. The air was soft and
warm and he became drowsy. Delightful
visions of his engaged wife came floating be-
fore him. He had been travelling for some
little time, had been seeing sights with
pleased and busy but now rather tired eyes,
and the thought of his coming happiness
helped to wait him still further into dream
Iand-and he fell asleep.
Not for long, certainly; but it was sleep,
and he was travelling in his dream-and he
was aroused, he thought, in an uncomfort
able way by the rushing motion of the rail-
way car in whose sleeping berth he had
fancied himself embedded. He opened his
eyes, grumbling rather, and looked heavily
up, and he almost smiled at his notion when
he saw the moon still shining on the falls
and rapids. But that sound SO near at
hand-close under him it seemed-that was
not the thunder of the fallsi That sudden,
strange movement, as if an earthquake were
heaving under him, what could that be?
He jumped to his feet, but only to stagger
and tumble about, and the terrible truth
was borne in upon him-some of the earth
on which he had been resting had given
way, a new landslip was taking place and
was bearing him along with it-down,
down, down to the headlong rush of
the arrowy rapids below the falls, where
the life of the strongest swimmer that ever
breasted river or sea would not hold its own
for one poor second of time. Yes. be was
borne down and down, with a sickening
