Catarrhal Deafness Hwy Fovcr-A Now
~ ar Homo Treatment. g.,...n.I'
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
afact, and the result Of tho discovery is
that a simple remedy has been tormu-
lated whereby catarrh, catarrhal deafness
and hay fever are permanently cured in
from n to three simple applications
made at home BY the patient once in two
weeks. .lf .0.ayIgG
N. B.-Thia treatment is not a snuff
or an ointment; both have been dis
cardcd by reputable physicians as inju-
rious. A pamphlet explaining this new
treatment ia sent free on receipt OF stamp

The waters and ice of almost the
whole Antartic Ocean are literally
embrOwned with tiny animalcules.
To the ~unscientific these little Great
ures are merely specks of mud or
dust, but when magnifed they are
seen to be animals. Very insignifi-
cant animals, you will say. But
what are they doing? Simply ShodI-
ing The Antartic Ocedn-laying the
foundation of a great island or per-
chance a continent. Recent eXplora-
tions in that region show that they
have already a submarine bank four
hundred miles in lenghth by one
hundred and twenty in breadth.
Small as these creatures are, they are
engaged in a vast business.
A large portion Of every soil is
composed of particles which either
are or have been alive. Some years
ago the inhabitants ola district in
Sweden were threatened with FAM
inc, and in the hope of staving off
the evil while the crops were grow
ing, they eked out their scanty sup
ply of grain with earth. They found
this mixed diet almost as nOurishing
as the unmiXed meal. Animal life,
it is well known, cannot be sustained
by inorganic matter. How then
could mere dirt be nutritive? The
microscope solved the MYSTERY. The
"dirt" was found to consist of shells
Of infinitesimal Great ures, which un-
der chemical analysis proved to be
formed of nutritious elements.
The Arabs, we are told, sometimes
relieve the pangs of hunger during
their desert wanderings by eating
clay. Doubtless this clay contains
animal matter.

cept, "Despise not the day of small
things"

Upon the whole, mUderL toilers-
in civilized and Christian lands at
least-can well afford 10 pity the fate
Of their brethren of long ago. Mod
ern toilers are not sightless Samsons,
working in the dark and treated with
scorn. They work understandingly,
and live in an age where exertion is
honorable and idleness d%isgracefpl.
Furthermore, mechanical power
scientifically applied, is the slave that
does most of the hard jobs, and saves
muscle, no end OF lifting, pushing,
striking and hauling. 1t has been
we'll said that no Illustration could
more aptly show the difference be-
tween the Old Times and the New,
than the picture Of the ancientgalIery,
onward with tiers of flashing oars
welded by the sinewy arms of UNI
willing servitors, and the modern
steamer propelled by the fire and
water that science has made the vas
sails of man.
Still, all of us, if we would be hap
Ply, must perform fairly and squarely
the work given us to do. Shirkers
find little favor on earth, and less in
heaven. There is only one step be-
tween laziness and perdition-

We have a strange incident to re-
port this week. Early Wednesday
morning the clouds assumed a leaden
gray color and lowered gloomily over
the earth. Soon a peculiar substance
began falling and continued until it
had covered the earth to IA depth of
about three inches. 1t was perfectly
white, light in weight and soft to the
touch. Being of scientific turn of
mind we cautiously tasted some of
the stuff. The taste, what there was
of it, was not unpleasant, but it was
very cold, and melted in the mouth
like those who eat it that way say
butter does. Some thought il was a
new brand of mama, while others
believed it to be la grippe microbes
or the indus of some new epidemic.
Being of a scientific mind, as before
modestly intimated, we have inves-
tigated the matter and have conclu-
ded that the substance is what we
scientists term star-dust. 1t is pro-
duced by the earth running amuck
Of the meteorOids and crushing those
little amateur worlds into atoms the
friction caused by the collision pro-
duces a large amount of caloric which
is 50 great that it acts as a crucible to
the fragments which are bleached
and as the heat is so great as to have
the same effect as cold the atoms are
frozen, and being denser than the at
mOsphere gravitate toward the earth's
surface and cover it as with a shroud,
or to speak more cheerfully, as with
a bridal robe. The sur having passed
her perihelion and being almost
ready to give her annual spring open
ing or equinox, and being nearest the
earth or the earth being nearer the
sun as before stated, or as might have
been stated, and the meteoroids hay
ing become bewildered by their jux-
Imposition to the earth's orbit, and the
asteroids having been i'll conjunction
with the cuboids and the aphelion of
the rhambOids being, as previously
stated, ear the milky whey, the
moon at the same time having passed
from a quadrature to a statu quo con-
dition, and the nebul& family being
more or less disturbed by the sideral
antics of Venus because of the mark
ed GOODNESS of Mercury toward her,
and Mars being in a fury over the
schemes of the political rings of Sat
urn, you see, by Jupiter, it naturally
follows that-er-er-of course it does,
Hence the phenomena of Wednesday
morning.

When You grasp the hand of fortune,

The hours glide on like the numbers

Your pathway is lined with faces
Where smiles and pleasure blend,
All the world will offer service
When you don't need a friend.
You may Sneer at fair discretion,
When solid at the bank,
Your ruleness is mere pleasantly,
And quite the thing for rank.
Men will thuSt upon you @favors,
And fawn and condescend,
Till you wonder at your kingship,
When you don't need Il friend.
They will shout your name in meeting,
And vote you into fame:
They yjllload your board with presents

They will strain themselves in showing
What Kindness they intend,
When sunshine floods your atmosphere.
And YOU don't need a friend.
