State Board of Health of New Jersey
which contains many interesting and in
st,uctiyc features. Hunterdon county
shows the number OF marriages for 1898
to have been Sl5, born. 5ll, died, 4S5.
The list of deaths for the past five years

fewer deaths 10 this county than any year
since 1889. The estimated population OF
this county for '93 is S5,Sl5, and the
death rate per 1000 Inhabitants is 1878
which is lower than any other county in
proportion to its population, another fact
of importance to be placed before the peo'

The cold wave last week appears to
have swept the whole country, the mer-
curry reaching the freezing point even in
Florida. In some parts of the Northwest
ii was accompanied by a heavy fall of
snow, and much injury to wheat is re-
ported from some sections. The greatest
damage frem the severe cold, however,
was to orchard and garden crops which
had been prematurely advanced by the
previous warm weather. New York
grapes, Delaware peaches, and early
fruits and vegetables through the States
east Of the Mississippi are supposed to
have suffered an aggregate loss Of a mil
lion dollars or more. 1t was the severest
cold in March since the blizzard of 1888,
and the weather bureau reports that the
last days of March, 1904, have been char
acterized by the most remarkable temper
ature extremes recorded in that month
since the establishment of the bureau.

Deafness Cannot be curel

by local applications, as they cannot reach

only one way to cure Deafness, and that
is by constitutional remedies. Deafness
is caused by an inflamed condition of the

When this tube gets inhamed you have

and when it is entirely closed Deafness is
the result, and unless the inflammation
can be taken out and this tube be restor
