A BOYS STRANGE HEAD.

Powder Blown Into One Ear Comes Out Of
tho Other.
"You have heard the saying, "In one ear
and out the other" said young Boston
specialist to Herald man. OF course. the
adage was familiar, and without waiting
for a reply, the doctor continued, Eve
seen many strange things in my practice,
but the most startling was practical dem
onstration OF that ancient saw. treat dis
eases of the eye and ear, and although You
may know very little about physiology. you
probably do know that tho ear drum is
the instrument of hearing. There are
strange peculiarities of that same ear
drum. For instance, I once had man
come to me who could hear very little
and had pain in his head. He did not
know what the trouble was, and when, after
an examination, told him it would be nee
es5ary to make an opening in his ear-drum,
ne SAID that he supposed he would never be
able to hear again. You see, he held the
popular notion that when the drum head is
broken it gives no sound.
After some persuasion he consented to
the operation, and QUITTING both ear drums
removed the accumulation from be-
hind them. The effect was magical, as he
could then hear perfectly. The organs
grew over, but the internal trouble contin-
ued and the operation was repeated several
times with perfect success. Another pa
tient of mine suffered from Disease Of the
| ear which had almost destroyed the drum.
Only the merest shred of the tissue re-
manned on either side, and yet his hearing
was good.
"Ihese are queer cases, and rather under
mine the popular theory in regard to the
hearing. but the one I started in to tell you
was more wonderful. About two years ago
a boy came to me for treatment for a dis
ease of the head with long name, that
don't suppose you care for. All the open
ings in his head were of unusual size. His
mouth and eyes were large, he had big
nose, with wide nostrils, and his ears were
in proportion. performed the necessary
