in Few Years.
The history Of pair OF trousers that
have been around the North Pole, ac-
cording to scientists theories, enlivened
the subject of the Arctic problem, as
handled by Prof. Angelo Heilprin be-
fore large gathering of Geographical
club members at the Century clubs
hall. The garments, it seems, were the
property of a sailor who accompanied
an expedition to the north by way of
Bering sea. How the apparel got into
the current presumed to set in some dis
tance above the frigid line did not ap-
pear, but Prof. Heilprin described the
way in which it travelled day after day,
as geographers believe, far to the inn
penetrable north, swept around the
pole, crossed it, perhaps, until it entered
the northern ocean boundary Of Green
land and came down its snow-lined
coast into the comparatively beaten
track that made it's discovery easy. The
professor illustrated his remarks with
map of Greenland, thrown on a can
vas from stereopticon, one of the first
correct geographical representations of
that icy land, perhaps, ever made. With
| long cane he traced the progress OF
the sailors trousers from point to point,
triumphantly establishing in the opin-
ion of many learned men the theory OF
a current sweeping in circular path
through the Arctic regions.
Prof Heilprin went on to tell of an
| expedition that will start from Norway
in February of 1898, and followed as far
as possible in the wake Of the sailor IS
neither garments, the idea being that
the waters will carry the ship almost
without guidance clear to and around
the North Pole. The vessel is to be
built with view to an effectual resist.
ance of the crushing effects of great ice
masses. Another expedition will set out
in June of next year with the same OBJ
| jective point in view, but by different
route. The way pointed out by Parry
in 1929, by way of the northeastern
coast of Spitzbergen, will be traversed
and Prof. Heilprin was inclined to thinl
that Parry's views of the proper way tc
get to the North Pole We're sound.
The chief result of Peary's work, from
a geographical standpoint, the lectures
declared, was the final settlement O

The American Humane association at
its recent annual meeting in Philadel-
phia made the following appeal to the
people of the United States:
In view OF the hideous forms of cruelty which
prevail in our beloved country, and of the indif-
ference and ignorance which exist not only
among the lowly and illiterate, but among the
wealthy and influen tial of our people, we would
earnestly call public attention to the following
forms of cruelty in our midst, notably among
others:
/. The abuse of horses by docking and the
overchecl rein, and the abuse of other domes-
tic animals in our Cities and throughout the
country.
.. The systematic starvation Of cattle on
western farms and ranches, and the inhumnn
treatment of mules and burros in mining dis.
tricts.
8 The transportation OF animals for long dis
tances under conditions Of horrible barbarity.
4. The prevailing evil OF vivisection for al.
legged scientific investigation.
CRUELTY TO CHILDREN.-To awaken whole
sale public sentiment, and to scatter intelli.
gence on this subject we earnestly request the
aid and cooperation OF the following:
Parents, and especially, mothers of children
who are asked TO instruct their children in hu.
name principles, and to procure humane ltera.
ture for their families.
Teachers of secular and Sabbath schools to
also inculcate these principles among their
pupils and in their classes.
Clergymen, who are requested to preach ai
least one sermon year on humane work.
All men and women everywhere who
have sympathy with suffering and
hatred of wrong are asked to gather to-
gether and organize humane societies
in the localities where they reside, and
to aid by their time, their in pfiuence and
their money the advancement of our
noble work

The total number received to date will
aggregate about 1000. There are now
about 1880 on the rolls of the home,
about o5 of them being colored. The
number steadily increases from year to
year. OF these 751 receive benefits as
resident inmates, 492 being absent on
outdoor relief. OF the resident inmates
4S5 participated in the late war. The
inmates are of all ages from twenty
four to ninety odd years Eight hun
dred ana forty of the inmates are pen
sioners, and the law allows their PEN
sions or parts thereof to be paid to
their relatives. Otherwise the pension
money is drawn by the treasurer of the
home, the pensioners receiving only a
part, the balance being paid to them
when they leave. This trust fund now
amounts to about $4,000.
A few of the inmates have been in
the home continuously for twenty years
and over, but the average stay is very
much shorter than this. Some of them
are educated, cultivated gentlemen with
whom fortune has dealt harshly. These
were attracted to the army by the love
of adventure. The old soldiers ought
to feel independent here, for the home
is maintained out of their own earn.

Why shouldn't the government
attend to the peoples banking as well
as their mailo
Would anybody deposit money in a
private bank if there was government
bank in the same town?
Would anybody borrow money from
a private bank at present rates of inter-
est charged if they could borrow from q
government bank for one per cent per
annum or less?
Wouldn't officers who transact the
bushes of the present private banks

government just as faithfully and
honestly for similar salaries?
Wouldn't the people who pay the In
terest which divides up among stock
holders of the present private banks
from ten to twenty per cent and up
wards, not prefer to keep that interest
in their own pockets? Can any per-
son tel why small number of persons
should be paid ten to twenty per cent
on money which does not belong to
them, by the owners of that money
for distributing when the government
could do the same business for them
for one half of one per cent per annumY

The Happy Family.

Congressional conventions of the
Republican party in this State for the
past quarter of century have been
managed not for the purpose of
nominating candidates to be elected
but candidates to be defeated. For
some reason unknown to the Repub-
licans of Maryland defeated candidates
for Congress have been designated by
Republican officials at Washington as
the dispensers of Federal spoils, and
the office holders deem it necessary to
manipulate Congressional conventions
in order to have the nominee act for
their interests at Washington and
assist in retaining them in the govern
ment service. Just so long as this
system of office brokerage is kept in
vogue just so long will the party be
dishonored and defeated by reason of
the men and methods used in controll-
ing the conventions.-Appeql.
This system with slight variations
to suit circumstances, has been in
vogue twenty-five years. You are slow,

Deafness Can't Be Cured

By local applications, as they cannot

There is only one way to cure deafness,
and that is by constitutional remedies.
Deafness is caused by an inflamed con-
dition of the mucous lining of the
Eustachian Tube. When this tube gets
infiamed you have q rumbling 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 condition, hearing will be des-
troyed forever; nine cases out of ten are
caused by catarrh, which is nothing
but an inflamed condition of the
mucous surfaces.
