"A WORD
In REGARD
TO OUR BUSINESS.

About five years ago, when Nf.
HOratiO Staples sold OUT, our
store was about One-thlfd OF HIS
present size. Every year m
creasi1lg business has made IL
necessary for MS to increase our
space and force Oh clerks. ana
we now have three cOmpiete
and connected SalesrOOms. eacn
larger than the entire store was
1--WE years ago.
This increase i'm our business
is due largely to the fact tnaI
we huy and sell for cash only
and that we try to give our Gus
toners the greatest value for the
least money.

The drum or tympanum OF the ear Is
a small air chamber, with hard, bony
surroundings, ventilated by an air pas
sage about 11a inches long, called the
eustachian tube, which passes forward
and inward from the anterior part Of
the throat bebiu1 the nostrils The at
mospheric pressure required on the in
ner side of the drum to counterbalance
that of the outer side Is provided for by
the communication of the eustachIan
tube with the throat in tile acts of
breathing and swallowing. Lining the
hollow Of the drum and forming the in
nermost layer of the drumhead is IA deli
cate nucus membrane, which also lines
the interior of the eustachian tube. Ii
we have a cold in the head the vessels
supplying the nucus membrane from
the nose to the mouth expand, the blood
within them flows slowly Or stagnates
and that in the mucus membrane be-
comes congested.
As result there is more or less swell
ing, with augmentation of the natural
secretions. The congestion is apt to be
continued into the mucous membrane of
the eustachian tube, which Is thus OBJ
structed This causes the air III the
drum to be raretied. the drumhead and
the little chain of bones connected with
1t are forced inward, and by causing ex-
cess of pressure of the internal ear pro-
