Deafness Can't be Cured

by local applications, as they cannot reach
the diseased portion of the ear. There is
only one way to cure deafness, and that is
by constitutional remedies. Deafness is
caused by an inflamed condition of the mu-
cOus lining of the Eustachian Tube When
this tube gets inflamed you have arumbling
sound or imperfect hearing, and when it is
entirely closed, Deafness is the result, and
unless the Inflammation can be taken out
and this tube restored to its normal condi-
ton, hearing will be destroyed forever;
nine cases out of ten are caused by catarrh,
which is nothing but an inflamed condition
of the mucous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars for
any case of Deafness (caused by catarrh)
that we cannot cure by taking Halls Ca
tarrh Cure. Send for circulars, free.

Automatic Manners.

Society recognizes from time to time
many things, which, il seen and heard
by our ancestors, would have brought
CONSERVATION among it's select.
But time changes minds as well as
manners, though even now when making
changes from one circle to another, it
often requires that adaptability which
could be said found in one who has au
tomato manners. However, such radi~
cal changes not only appear in drawing
room repartee, street dress, ETC., among
people, but also IN the conveniences and
luxuries afforded mankind. Railroad
travel is one instance. A few years ago,
comp aratively, one had to consume much
valuable time in an uncomfortable way

geance went up against the Irish people.
Victims there should be, ana in hot haste
twenty-eight Irishmen were arrested.
among them being Allen, Larkin and
O,Brien. The latter we're tried by a
sprejudiced jury on suborned evidence
and were condemned to die. After being
asked If they had anything to say why
sentence of death should not be pro
nounced upon them. each OF the con-
demned men delivered manly and patrl-
otto addresses, declaring their innocence
IN the most solemn language. They
went to the scaffold with a prayer for
Ireland on their lips and offered up their
voung lives as sacrifice to liberty.
Notwithstanding the fact that the Man
chester victims belonged to the Fenian
society-a conspiracy which had not the
sanction of conservative Ir1shmen-yet
after the execution of three innocent men
who took neither hand, act or part in the
accidental death of the English police
man, all Irishmen denounced the savage
act of vengeance. All over Ireland the
clergy prayed for the repose of their
souls to weeping congregations. and
funeral professions were held in the
principal cities. A monument to their
memory has been erected in Glasnevin
cemetery and all Irishmen throughout
the earth venerate their memory. Their
names are embalmed in song, T. D. Sui
llvan having immortalized them IN the
national poem of 'God Save Ireland. .
The twenty-third anniversary of the
martyrs will be observed in many Ameri-
can cites, and Irish PATRIOTS everywhere
will offer up heartfelt prayer for the
eternal repose of their souls.

ARCHBISHOP KENRIUK.


The st. Louis Republican of last Sun
dav had a leading article on Archbishop
Kenrick upon whom. it is said, cardi-
nails hat will be conferred in the near
future. In the course of long and we l.
merited eulogium on the Archbishop
the Republican says: But the benefcent
works among us due to this eminent
prelate and no less eminent philan-
thropist multiply with the telling. In
his long episcopal administration OF q
half century he has been unremltting in
his care for the orphans; has fostered
the erection of school houses. churches
and converts; has founded hospitals.
established industrial schools. To his
foresight the city owes tue beautiful
calvary Cemetery. In fact. there are
among us few avenues of human we'll
doing which do not bear the marks OF
his benevolence and Christian zeal.
Millions IN money and in property are
said to have passed through Archbishop
Kenrick's hands in the course of his long
and busy administration. This IS easy
TO believe. But what has become OF it?
The answer is already written above.
It reaches MS from the helpless orphans
in the asylums, from the unfortunate In
sane. from the wretched outcasts whom
A pitiless world had driven out to starve.
but for whom he founded the model har-
bor of concealment and rest. The answer
lies in the monumental school establish
1nents. the church ed,fces, the hospital
buildings. Few people in our COM
mun1ty had given thought to the i'm
portance of an organized charity for the
aged poor among Us, when again the
Drovident Archbishop invited the Little
Sisters of the Poor to establish home
and system OF support for them, coun-
selling, directing, and never unce halt
ing in his aid of them until the 1nstltu-
tion had been firmly established on an
enduring footing. Those who have had
the opportunity of visiting this unique,
interesting home. and Of converslrg with
it's well.fed, weli-cIad septuagenarian
and octogenarian inmates, speak OF it as
A picture of most touching and most
noble charity. The well-dolug Arch
bishop OF st. Louis belongs to this en-
tire community, irrespective of religious
creed, for to his admirers of dissenting
faith, his broad philanthrophy takes
precedence OF his distinguished HER

IT may not be generally known that
one of the royal palaces of England
was built by the money of Irish Cath
ollcs. This interesting fact was men
toned some time age bv Most Rev. DIR.
Moran, Bishop of Dunedin, New Zea
land, IN a discourse on education in bis
cathedral church. The history of the
matter as given BY the bishop is briefly
as follows: Among the Catholic church
property seized and contiscated in
France during the revolution was the
property of two or three colleges found.
ed in France by Irish Catholics for the
education of their children at time
when British penal laws prevented
them getting Catholic education in
their own land England claimed from
the French government, and got com
pensatlon to the extent Of So 500, 900 fol-
the property of British subjects seized
bv the revolutionists. In this sum was
included $l $50 900 in lieu of the Irish
Catholic college property, Irish Cath
oics being British subjects, although
banned by British law. Instead of paw.
ing the money over to the Irish Cath
Ole owners of the property thus com
pensated for. or to their heirs or repre-
sentatlves, the British government used
every cent of 1t IN building Bucklng'
ham Palace, which is now one OF the
Queen OF England's royal residences
Many efforts have been made from time
to time by irish members of Parliamen:
to induce the government to make res
titution, but these efforts have been all
in vain. Not dollar OF the money has
been restored. What is the proper
term with which to designate this! The
answer will suggest itself to all minds
that recognize common honesty and
common decency.
