Deafness Can Not BE Cured

by local applications, as they can not reach
the diseased portion of the ear. There is
only one way to cure Deafness and that is
by constitutional remedies. Deafness is
caused by an infamed condition of the
mucous lining of the Eustachian Tube.
When this tube gets inflamed you have a
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 nor
NAL condition, hearing will be destroyed
forever; nine cases out of ten are caused
by catarrh, which is nothing but an in
famed condition of the mucous surfaces.

WOMEN ON SMOKING cans.

+
PersistentIy Invading the Reserva
tion Intended for Long-sufrerinK
AIons
A few months ago Philadelphia
street car companies began running
smoking cars in response to popular
demand for them, says the New York
Evening Post. It has been found al
most impossible to keep women out of
these cars, and to make matters worse
the smokers. unable to resist the claims
OF politeness, have been cheerfully sur
rendering their seats to the women.
Things have now got to such pass
that the latter have become masters OF
the situation. DAY by day." says an
observer, "the feminine travel upon the
smoking car has increased. That man
is lucky who can now cling to the edges
of the car and fondly hope that he may
smoke in peace, after the long journey
is over and he has reached the secluded
precincts OF his office or home, The
women not only claim the smoking
cars as their own. but they have begun
to stare coldly at such men as now VEN
tlre timidly into the cars, which We're
prepared especially for them" The.
question whether the men have a right
to smoke in smoking car In the pres
ence of women has been settled by the
latter in the negative, and an offender
was actually elected from one of these
cars the other day by man accom-
panying an indignant woman. What
makes the persistence of the women
singular Ia that that the smoking cars
are much less comfortable and attrac-
tive than those provided for general
use. The Philadelphia newspapers are
courageously supporting the men in
this emergency, and urging them to
stand on their rights. 1.-The women"
one newspaper makes bold to say,
must yield the cars to men or they
(the women) must learn to smoke"

THE NEW NAVY.
A Gratifying Progress I'm the Con.
structiOn of Ships.


struction of Ships.
Attention is called to the report Of the
secretary Of the navy, which shows very
gratifying progress in the construction of
ships for our new navy. All the vessels now
Dang e 81 I'M the three torpedo boats
and excepting the first-clasS battle-shiD
Iowa, will probably be completed during
the coming fiscal year.
The estimates for the increase of the navy
for the year ending June go 1885, are large,
but they include practically the entire sum
necessary to complete and equip all new
ships not now in commission, so that un-
less new ships are authorized the appro-
priations for the navy service for the
fiscal year ending June 80, 1897, should
fall below the estimates for the coming
year py at least ST., 600, 600.
More Ships Needed.
The secretary presents with much earnest
ness plea for the authorization of three
additional battle-ships and ten or twelve
topedo boats. While the unarmed vessels
heretofore authorized, including those now
nearing completion, will constitute feet
which 1t Is believed is sufficient for ordinary
cruising purposes in time of peace, we have
tion but four first-class battle-ships and but
Few torpedo boats. If we are to have a
navy for warlike operations, offensive and
defensive, we certainly ought to increase
Doth the number OF battle-shfps and tor
pedo boats,
The manufacture of armor requires ex-
pensive plant and the aggregation of many
skilled workmen. All the armor necessary
to complete, the vessels now building will
be delivered before the first of June next
Ii no new contracts are given out, contract
ors must disband their workmen and their
plants must lie idle Battle-ships, author
lied at this time would not be well under
way until late in the coming fiscal year,
ana at least three years and half from
the date OF the contract would be required
Tor their completion. The secretary states
that not more than Is per cent of the cost
OF such shipments need be included In the
appropriations for the coming year
| recommend that provision be made for
the construction of additional battleships
and torpedo boats The secretary recon-
mends the manufacture not only of reserve
supply of ordnance and ordnance material
Tor ships of the navy, but also supply for
the auxiliary feet. Guns and their appur-
tenances should be provided and kept on
hand for both these purposes We have not
today single gun that could be put on the
ships Paris or New York, of the Interna-
tional Navigation company, or any other
ship OF our reserve navy. The manufacture
of guns at the Washington navy ward is
processing satisfactorily, and none of our
new ships will be REQUIRED to wait for theiI
guns or ordnance equipment

An Orators Checks ON HIMSELF.

Prof. Swings oratory when he let
himself loose was always at fault in
the matter of speed. When asked once
why he talked so fast in the pulpit,
he said that he was afraid to talk
slower for fear his congregation might
60 to sleep. Though he laughed over
his habit, it really annoyed him at
times. He always had to fight against
1t, from the beginning Of his minis
try. When he was a young man he
never used to preach without having
some one demonstrate with him after
wards on his delivery. His words fol-
lowed each other like lawless torrent.
They ran together and tHmbled over
each other; they were broken of and
snapped. Although he had not little
talent as an extemporaneous speaker,
he fell to writing out his sermons, so
as to be able to keep control of his
tongue, and some OF the older manu-
scripts used to show the marginal notes
In very pronounced hand: "Slow
up" go slow here" Look out" and
so on.-Kate Fields Washington.

Cure for BIear Eve.

Warm water, sea bathing, temperance
and outdoor life are curative for bleari-
ness of the eyes. In blear eye-'Iippi-
tudo"-there is an emulation Of puru-
lent matter from the margins of the
eyelids, which are red, humid and
somewhat painful, and frequently dur
ing the night are glued together by the
discharge. Clean water of medium
warmth is the best application. Excess
in eating and drinking should likewise
be avoided and some aperient medi.
cine taken.

Girls White Rugs.

There is nothing in winter that giys
such q sense Of warmth, comfort and
luxury as fur, unless, perhaps, it is q
glowing log fire. When these are both
combined, what can the heart Of man
desire more in the way Of decorative
comfort? When Bengal tigers and
white polar bear skins are very expen-
siye, there are large square and oblong
rugs Of white fur that are much used
in bed rooms and the popular white
drawing rooms Of the day. These are
also used as couch coverings by the
aesthetic young women, and she may

NEW CURRENCY SCHEME.
A Plan Suggested by Secretary Car
Isle Is Endorsed.


Questions relating to our banks and cur
rency are closely connected with the sub
ject Just referred to and they also present
some unsatisfactory features. Prominent
among them are the lack of elasticity In our
currency circulation and its frequent con-
centration in financial centers when 1t Is
most needed in our parts of the country.
The absolute enforcement of the govern
ment from the business Of banking is the
ideal relationship of the government to the
circulation of the currency of the country.
This condition cannot me Immediately reach
ed, but as step In that direction and as a
means of securing q more elastic currency
and obyiating other objections to the pres
emit arrangement of bank circulation, the
secretary of the treasury presents in his re-
port scheme modifying present bank laws

The secretary explains his plan so plain
ly and its advantages are developed by
him with such remarkable cearness that
any effort on my part to present argument
In its support would be supercillious. !

unqualified Endorsement of the secretary's

features.
