Deaf.e.. Ca.,s be Cured

by local applications, as they cannot reach the diseased portion of the ear. There Is only one way to cure deafness, and that is by con- stftutional remedies. Deafness Is caused by an infiamed condition of the mucous lining of the Eustachian Tube. When this tube gets inf1amed you have a rumbling sound or i'm perfect hearing. and when 1t Is entirely closed, Deafness is the result, and unless the inflammation can be taken out and this tube restored to it's normal condition, hearing will be destroyed forever. Nine cases out of ten are caused by catarrh, which is nothing but an inflamed condition of the mucuous sur faces.
 We will give one hundred dollars for any case of deafnees (caused by catarrh) that we cannot cure by taking Halls Catarrh Cure Send for circulars, free.

An Unlucky Shot.

''I am not very good shot, " said R. B. Coleman, land this fact gave me a great deal of trouble at one time. bor- rowed valuable dog from friend and went hunting. The animal became rat tied when he found that I knew noth- ing about hunting. Rabbit after rabbit was started up, and missed them as fast as they came. Finally the dog grew tired and concluded to catch them on his own hook. He soon started another, and as 1t jumped the dog jumped after it just as fired. The shot went into the head of the dog, and he died without a groan. The rabbit ran short distance and then stopped and looked back, as if to mock me. Of course paid for the dog, but my friend has never forgiven me, and have not gone hunting since. !" Cincinnati Enquirer.

In Tine of Peace Prepare for War. :
 While we sympathize most deeply with those whose property was destroy ed by the two recent fires, we feel it our duty to point out that those two fires are object lessons for the people of the village of Canaan. It has been shown If anybody doubted it) that this village has TO adequate means of de- fence against fire. There are not hy- drants enough. and those we have are seldom opened and flushed out and thus kept in working order. consequently at the last fire it was found that the near ct hydrant could not be used because the cap was 80 rusted on that the wrench was broken in the attempt to open the hydrant
 The people of this village should call meeting without delay and appoint 8 committee to determine how many more hydrants are necessary and where they should be located and then have them put in. The committee should also investigate and report on tho con- dition of s1e hose. The hose cart should be taken. out and the hose tested to see if tEere is enough of 1t and whether what there is is in good work ing order. The recently organized hose company should do this at once. And kha nooulo ahould hack kba hoao company up with their encouragement and sympathy and with pecuniary help If necessary. There should be no lack of hose in good order, and the hose cart house shouldsbe made comfortable for the meetings of the company. It would be we'll for the hose company to get their cart out at least once . month for drill and practice.

THE GRAPEVINE SWING.

Blithely whistling, with agile swing, Leaps the farmers boy to the grapevine swtno To and fro, high and low, Up where the winds the branches blow, Flying down to lightly pass Where bare feet ripple the blue eyed grass Up again h the sunshine free, Back, in the shade of the maple tree, Spurning the ground with supple foot At the we'll worn spot at the naples root Higher; the branches strike his breast, There are three blue eggs in the robin's ncsu Dropping, dropping, swiftly down, With a flying glimpse of the distant town, Back and forth in the noontide glow. Swinging slower and still moro slow, Idly rocking in sun pierced gloom To tremulous pause in the vtne's perfume. Springing at length where the grasses yield, He follows the men to the hayfng fielS

ACID FOR MAKING SUGAR.

Curious Process Which Has Met With
 Some Success In France
 A very novel method of making sug- ar has been patented in Franco by NJ. Pellegrini. Sugar is chemically com- pound of carbon, oxygen and hydrogen in such proportions that if carbonic acid, water and certain kinds of illpmi- mating gas could be persuaded to unite in the proper quantities the composition of sugar would be exactly initiated Hitherto no one has been able to make sugar by mixing water with two kinds of gas, but NJ. Pellegrini claims to have succeeded. The apparatus he uses con- sists of largo block of pumioe stone, cleansed by soaking first in sulphuric acid and then in water, which is set in an iron box plated with nickel inside. The length of the box Is three times that of the pumioe stone block, which is tightly fitted in the middle, and pipes are arranged to convey the ingredients to the empty ends of the box. as requir- ed. Two of them enter from the sides and servo to bring carbonio aoid and hydrocarbon gas, while another pipe from above branches so as to reach both empty portions of the box and conveys steam. All the pipes are fitted with valve and pressure gauges
 Another pipe at the bottom of the box serves as an outlet At first this pipe is closed, as Is also the steam pipe from above, and oarbonio aoid is forced into one end of the box, while ethylene gas is forced into the other under equal pressure and in equal volumes A few minutes later the steam valve above is opened and the steam forced in under the same pressure. As the gases unite the pressure falls, so that the supply of each must be kept constant At the end of half an hour the supply of gas Is shut off, the outlet pipe is openeds and one of the chambers Is found to be filled with sirup containing 25 per cent of sugar.
 The sirup is drawn of for refining, and as soon as the apparatus is cool it Is ready for fresh charge The ethy- lene gas can be obtained by roasting rosin or grease, but M. Pellegrini's pat ent covers other hydrocarbons, such as petroleum products The explanation is that the three gases are condensed in the pores of the pumioe stone and there unite. Architect

Mrs. Pepys' Temper.

Being at supper, my wife did say something that caused me to oppose her in. She used the word devil, which vexed me, and, among other things, I said would not have her to use that word, upon which she took me up most scornfully, which. before Ashwell and the rest of the world, I know not nova days how to check, as would hereto fore, for less than that would have made me strike her. So that I fear without great discretion shall go near to lose, too, my command over her, and nothing do it more than giUing her this occasion of dancing and other pleasures, whereby her mind is taken up from her business and finds other sweets besides pleasing of me, and so makes her that she begins not at all to take pleasure h me or study to please me as heretofore.
