Deafness Cannot be Cured

by local applications. as they cannot reach
the diseased portion OF the ear. There is
only one way to cure deafness, and tina. is
by constitutional remedies. Deafness is
caused by an inhamed condition of the
mucous lining of the Eustachian Tube.
When this tube gets inaamed 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 DESTROY
ed forever; nine cases out of ten are
caused from catarrb, which is nothing blu,
an inhamed condition OF the mucous
surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars fol
any case of deafness Caused by catarrhI
that cannot be cured by Halls Catarrt
Cures. Send for circulars, free.

BALLADS OF TO-DAY.

With Debs and Co. a-kicking up fuss,
And getting all our railroads in a muss;
With men like PETER in the senate halls
To bring debates down to the plane CT brawls
With anarchistic AltgeId in high place
To plunge the state of Lincoln in disgrace;
With riba1d rebels in the Western states,
Pennoyers everywhere, and, worse luck,
Waites;
With sugar-coa ted pills to make our laws
Untrue to any but some selfish cause;
With Yankee Drawn laid low across the seas
BY Oxford athletes with apparent ease;
When our crack boat, our Vigilant, cen fails,
Knocked largely out by craft of Mr.. Wales
This year of '94, 1 sadly fear,
Is not in any sense Yankee year.
So haste then, ga, curse that you are
Speed your course; get off the ca1erdari
If I'd my way, there isn't any doubt,
I'd take sponge and wipe you wholly out,
But for the saving fact, vile year, that you
Must show what woes we people can live
through,
And again make other nations see
We're quite as great as we're cracked up to be.

WONDERS OF THE M1cRopHoNs.

One of the most curious instru-
ments which the development of
electrical science has brought into
being is the microphOne. 1t embraces
within itself almost the whole
principle of the modern telephone,
and with it may be performed Sc
ries of experiments which, aside from
their being interesting, are wonder
fully significant of what we may ex-
pect from its development in the
steps of a fly walking on the stand
on which it is placed are clearly
heard, and give the sensat ton of a
horses tread; and even a fy's
scream, especially at the moment of
death, is easily audible. The rustling
of piece of dress goods on the
board of the instrument. and COM
pletelv inaudible under ordinary cir
cumstances, are distinctly heard in
the microphone The ticking of a
watch is rendered very loud at quite
distance from the receiver. A mu-
steal box placed in connection with
the instrument transmits so much
sound as to make it impossible to
distinguish individual notes. A cur
rent of air blown sharply on the in
strument sounds like distant trickle
of water And the rumbling of a
carriage outside the house is trans
formed into very intense cracking
noise, not unlike the sound of the
burning of pine logs.
The instrument in appearance as
sumes various shapes, inasmuch Is
the very simplicity of its principle
admits of its being made of various
substances and in almost any form
All that is necessary for its simple
working is in having what is known,
technically, as loose contact
that is, an electric circuit whose con-
tinuity at some point is capable of
being varied. AS an instance, then,
three nails make one of the best of
microphones. Two of the nails are
laid on board parallel to each 9TH
er, and say one-half inch apart. The
other nail is laid across the first two,
the latter being meantime connected
to a battery cell and a telephone re-
ceiver. If fly, for instance, be con-
fined in small box, and the latter
placed on the board on which the
nails are laid, the slightest vibration
caused by the movements of its feet
will render the unstable contact of
the nails still more unsteady, and
by thus altering the force or amount
of the electricity which passes, will
in the telephone receiver
an exact but much magni6ed fac
simile of what is taking place in the
box.-[Harper's Young People.

should attend, where you can discuss
methods and manners with the most
noted and long winded men in the
country. Come, go to Junction.
Travelling in hot weather is excellent
practice in cultivating grace and pa
thence, especially when the strikes
may keep you eleven hours in Queer
town. But for you to miss that meet
ing of the American Institute of Con-
stitutions is objectionable. The ses-
sions are four hours long, l believe,
and it's rather warm place, but
anything is preferable to wasting
your time in just being comfortable.
Then you can rush across the
country and arrive in time at Beer
sheba for the United Pathological
Conference. You will not need to
carry a macintosh. There is no
moist weather where that society
meets. The N. Y. X. L. convention
comes before long. Such a fine chance
to study human nature in a crowd,
and then hear music too. l always

ballads, sung by your daughter in

BEST DIET FOR CHILDREN.
of Large Experience Say the
Only Security is in Lactated Food
Little MISS Krapf of Pennsylvania.

Babvhood cannot be trifed with.
Thousands die yearly in the months of
June, July and August from mistakes in
diet, and that means causes which could
be prevented.
When the baby is weaned a substitute
must be found for mothers milk, sufi
GENTLY nutritious to supply material for
the baby's rapid growth and develop
nent, agreeable to take, and OF absolute
purity All these conditions are perfect
" fulfilled in actated food. 1t is the
most nourishing, strengthening, readily
digested and palatable food that can be
given the baby.
Says Mrs. Charles A. Krapf, 351 West
Broad street, Hazelton, Penn: Our lit
tie girl has been using lactated food
since last year up to the present time,
and we think it is the best food for child
rem. 1t has built her up in solid flesh,
and could not do without it.
In recent letter Mrs. Susan Bartram,
2611 Tulip street, Philadelphia, wrote:
II have raised three babies OH lactated
food. l tried all kinds of foods for the
first one and none of them gave satisfac-
ton, for the baby was sick all the time.
The doctor advised me to use lactated
food, and in one weeks time after COM
mencing its use l saw an Improvement
in the baby and after that l never had
any trouble and have never used any
other kind of food. l commenced using
the food with my next baby when he
was three days old. He is now 20
months old and has cut II teeth with
out any trouble. l have another baby
only three weeks old tomorrow, and 1
have begun to give her the lactated food,
too. 1 have recommended the food to
many friends and they have used it with
great satisfaction"

"My-my Wife," was the reluct-

STEALING A CHRISTMAS TREE.
A Very Mean Performance in Deering
Friday.

Only the women were at home in this
Deering house last Friday, when the SER
want girl called their attention to man
in. the backyard, where there is small
grove of forest trees. They looked just
in time to see him hurriedly disappear
ing through the back gate, dragging be-
hind him the top of one OF their young
and ornamental fir trees. He had delib-
erately come into the yard ana sawed
it off, though whysshe should do it, when
there are plenty of wild forests in Deer
ing full of such trees, is something of
mystery. 1t looked good deal like spite
or wanton destruction.

A Native of Maine Honored.

Edmund Hayes, who has been selected
by Governor Morton as chief of engin-
GERS on his staff, with rank OF Briga-
der General, is a native OF Maine. He
was born at Pennington in 1s49, was
educated at Dartmouth College. and sub
sequently took a special course in civil
engineering of two years at the Massa-
chusetts Institute of Technology in Bos-
ton, class of 1878. His entire business
life has been spent as civil engineer,
and he has made bridge building spec
ialty. AS engineer and member OF the
Central Bridge Works he built the canti-
lever bridge at Niagara Falls. in 1883.
In 1884 the Union Bridge Company was
formed, and he became one of the part
ners, and still holds that relation. Dur
ing that time he has had charge of the
erection of several of the largest bridge
structures, among them being the
Haweksbury bridge, in New South
Wales; the Poughkeepsie bridge. across
the Hudson; the Cairo bridge across the
Ohio river at Cairo, ILL.,; the Merchants
bridge at St. Louis, across the MISSISSIPPI
pi river, and numerous other important
structures. In 1884 he was appointed
major of engineers on the staff OF the
Fourth Brigade, N.G.S. NY, and held
that position continuously until last
year, when he resigned. In politics he
is Republican, but not politician.
never having held any political office.
He is director in two of the largest
banking institutions of Buffalo, of the
Buffalo Musical Association, the Mer-
chants Exchange and the Buffalo Club.

PoRTLAND's ALuATioN.
The City Assessors Feel that the State AS.
SCISSORS Have Included Property which
Should Legally Be Exempt.

The result of the report of the Board of
State Assessors has been to add this year
about four million dollars to Portland's
valuation. The city assessors valus the
real and personal property OF the
city at $50, $50, O5O. TO this the state as
SCISSORS add the four millions i'll the
form of doom. 1t seems quite evident
what the cause is at the bottom of this
increase.
Some time ago the State Assessors
wrote and asked for return of the valu-
alton of the land and public buildings
in the city. The city assessors did not
do this, believing that it was net legal
for the state to tax such pr operty.
Last year the State Assessors added to
Portland's valuation $3.50 for the
land that the public buildings set on.
1t was evident that this amount had
been arrived at by taking the total from
the City Auditors report. The tax upon
this property was not considered legal at
the time, but was paid. This year the
State Assessors do not specify upon
what they make the increase, but it is
thought that it is undou btedly upon the
publicybuildings with the land going
with them.
The city assessors do not believe that
this extra valuation illegally placed on
that the extra tax of about $4,000 incl
dental to it, will be legal.
They wrote to the State Assessors,
asking for hearing, but the State AS.
SCISSORS have not answered the letter.
There are said to be decisions in this
state against such taxation of public
property. Of course it is well known
that the property of the state and Unit
ed States are exempt from taxat ion.

Biddeford,s opinion Of Bangor.

The Biddeford Standard has the fol-
lowing to say regarding Bangor's posi-
ton on football matters:
Thornton A academy tried for the pen
nant, and it is just as well she did not
win it, for with such big, blubbering
sluggers to please at the end of the sea-
son (overgrown children, who'll tell their
mother if. the pennant is given to the
victor), there is little incentive to pre-
pare for contest. Instead of playing
football, the Bangor winners should be
taken into. their nurseries, spanked, and
by most juvenile lullaby. At the end
of that time they would be old enough
to go out alone.
