A Cure For Siam nerins.

4 gentleman who st4mmered from
childhood almost up to manhood gives a
very simple remedy for the misfortune:
Go into room where you will be quiet
and alone, get some book that will in
terest but not excite you and sit down
and read two hours aloud TO yourself.
keeping your teeth together Do this
every two or three days, or once a week
if very tiresome. always taki1se care TO
read slowly and distinctly, moving the
lips, but not the teeth. Then, when con-
versing with others, Try to speak as
slowly and distinctly as possible and
make up your mind that you will not
stammer.
Well, l tried this remedy, not having
much faith in it, l must confess, but
willing to do almost anything TO cure
myself of such an annoying difficulty.
read for two hours aloud with nv
teeth together. The first result was to
make my tongue and jaws ache-that is,
while was reading-and the next to
make me feel as If something had loos-
ened my talking apparatus, for could
speak with less difficulty Immediately.
The change was so great that every one
who knew me remarked it. / repeated
this remedy every five or six days for a
month, and then at longer intervals IN
I'll cured.-Good Health.

YOUR HEARING.
Is it Gradually Growing Duller?-
Catarrh Causes it-Stop
il Now
it Now.

Mr.. Peterson's case illustrates the
danger of allowing these troubles to
run on, and should be carefully read
by everyone.
very large per cent of these cases
of deafness and roaring noises is due
to the extension of catarrh to the
eustaehian tubes and inner ears.
Many of the most remarkable cures
that have been accomplished by the
physicians of the Scott Medical In
stitute have been in the restoration
of hearing lost or dulled from ca
tarrhal extension. 1t is folly to wait
for a trouble like this to get well it
self. 1t don't get swell, but always
gets worse, until frequently the hear
ing is entirely destroyed. 4 thor
ough course of treatment with ca
pable specialist, who goes right at
the cause of the trouble and removes
it, is the only hope.
DR.. Wilson and his medical asso-
ciates cure all cases of deafness
caused by catarrh.

AFTER all the years Of oppression
to which they have been obliged for
years to submit, relief Is in sight for
all Irish people at last through the
efforts Of that grand old man, William
f. Gladstone, whose bill for home
rule in the emerald isle has passed the
peoples law-making branch of the
English government-the house Of
commons - and now goes to the
house Of lords. The measure is one
to which the great statesman has
given the best part OF his public life;
it may be said. the issue being the
one on which on Aug. y. 1892. he
carried the elections and was again
made prime minister with a MAORI
ty Of 10 made up Of many factions.
With such a gallant and intrepid
leader, with such n power behind
their cause, the Irish people must
win this time

Ones respect for the accommodations
at Buckingham palace is considerably
enhanced TO read that over zoo women
waiting to be presented to the queen
were gathered in the apartment adjoin-
ing the throneroom on the last drawing
room. When it is recalled that each of
these women was accompanied by her
court train, or rather that each accom-
panied her court train, it is seen how
noble must be the dimensions of room
to accommodate 200 women and 200
court trains.-Exchange
