A Mica Cartridge.

The uses OF mica are manifold
One Of its latest developments is
distinctly novel. An ingenious
Australian has invented and intro
duced a mica cartridge for sport
ing and military guns. The fill.
ing inside the cartridge is visible,
and a further advantage is that
instead of the usual wad of felt a
mica wad Is used. This substance,
being a non.conductor unaffect-
ed by acids or fumes, acts as a
lubricant. When smokless pow
ders, such as cordite or other nitro
glycerine compounds are used,
mica has distinct advantage over
every other material used in cart
ridge manufacture. Being tran
sparent, any chemical change in
the explosive can be at once de-
tected. The peculiar quality it
has of withstanding intense heat
is here utilised, the breech and
barrel being kept constantly cool.
The fouling of the rifle is also
avoided, the wad actually cleaning
the barrel.

DEAFNESS CANNOT BE CURED

By local applications as they can not reach
the diseased portion of the ear There is on
one way to cure deafness, and that is by
constitutional remedies. Deafness is caused
by an infiamed condition of the mucous lining
of the Eustachian Tube. When this tu be is
infiamed you have rumbling sound or i'm
perfect hearing, and when it is entirely
closed, deafness Is the result, and unls So the
inflammation can be taken out and this tube
restored to its normal condition, hearing will
be destroyed forever; nine cases out of ten
are caused by catarrah, which is nothing but
an infismed condition of the mucous sur
faces.
We will give One Hundrt Dollars for any
case of deafness caused by catarrh) that can
not be cured by Halls Catarrh Cure. Send

pwsllers in the Arctic.

In 1918 Sir John Ross discover
ed an isolated race of human
beings, numbering about two hun
dred souls, living on the inhospi-
table shores of North Greenland.
To this community he gave the
romantic name OF "ArtIc High
landers"-a name which unfortu-
nately is misleading; for they are
a littoral people and cannot in
habit the Arctic highlands, as it
is an everlasting cap, and, more
over, they will not even visit it,
for this inland ice is to them a
region OF terror, land where
abide their demons and evil spirits.
AT the present day they number,
as near as can be estimated, about
the same as when the knowledge
OF them came to the civilized
world; nor have they increased
their territory, but live on the
narrow strip Of mountainous
coast, which is left bare during
the summer months by the retreat
Of the winter SHOWS. They could
not = be more cut off from other
human beings did they live on
some small oceanic island. Prac-
tically, they do live on an island,
for they are surrounded by water
by great expanses Of solid water ;
for they never pass the ice barrier
of the great Humboldt Glacier,
with its sea face of 60 miles.

There is one medicine which
every family should be provided
with. We refer to Chamberlain's
Pain Balm. When it is kept at
hand the severe pain of a burn or
scald may be promptly relieved
aad the sore healed in much less
time than when medicine has to
be sent for. A sprain may be
promptly treated before inflamma-
ton sets in, which insures cure
in about one-third the time other
wise required. Cuts and bruises
should receive Immediate atten-
ton, before the parts become swOl-
len, and when Chamberlain's Pain
Balm is applied it will heal them
without matter being formed, and
without leaving a scar. A sore
throat may be cured in one night.
A piece of flannel dampened with
this liniment and bound on over
the seat of pain, will cure lame
back or pain in the side or chest in
twenty-four hours. 1t is the most
valuable, however, for rheuma-
tism. Persons afflicted with this
disease will be delighted with the
prompt lelief from pain which it
affords, and it can be depended
upon to effect a complete cure. For

There is revival of gossip in regard to
the sale Of the Georgetown and Tenleytown
railroad While there seems to be an i'm
preston that some sort of negotiations are
in progress looking to a change in the
ownership Of that property, there seems to
be nothing definite known. The officers of
the company, as we'll as those who own the
controlling interest in the road, while not
denying that sale of the road is prob
able, at the same time assert that no def
mite proposition had been made which could
be accepted.
this property. 1t is claimed by some that
the Washington and Georgetown would like
to acquire this road as a feeder to their
own and that this corporation is behind the
proposition to buy, When this rumor was
called to the attention of director in the
Washington and Georgetown corporation
he said that he had not heard that his
company desired or intended to buy the
Tenleytown railroad. 1t Is also asserted
that representatives of the Metropolitan
railroad are among those who desire to
purchase this road, but this rumor is also
contradicted by those who are in a position
to know about the affairs of the Metropoli-
tan road.
1t is also said that outside parties would
like to secure the control Of this property
and manage it as is being done at present
as an independent road The various ru-

The New York Herald recently discovered
what was intended to be a carefully
guarded secret-namely, that the HERE
SHOTS have signed contract not to build
cup defender for any one outside the

is some maneuvering going on over the
sails. too. Hathaway who formerly
worked for Clifford of FALL River, is MAX

diagonal, after the patent of Ratsey of
Cowes, so there may be some bother about
Mr.. Howard Goulds new twenty-rater be-
ing allowed to use them on the other side.
The cup defender will be a Reef boat,
with possibly a centerboard forward to
check her falling off in light winds. She
will not be composite built, either, but will
be OF plate Tobin bronze: She will have
quite a good draught, and in order that

the ways In the south yard; and a stone
wall will be planted, which will form a
foundation for her to rest on while build

down. The. formersslaid down" the Nava-

and the men haveaheen instructed to keep
their mouths shut. This order was given
out last week. That the new boat will be

be no doubt whatever for iron platers,
who have been working in Nyack and on
the Delaware, are turning up there every

iron workers. The angle iron frames will
be bent up in the old boiler. shop. but no
work has been begun on them yet.
From good authority, the statements
that the new boat will not be an extra
wide keel, but will be Of medium beam
and will depend on her weights low down
for her power. 1t is said that the differ
ence in price between building keel and

being addicted to drink.
In passing sentence Judge Cole referred
to the previous good character of the de-
PENDANT remarking that in his case, as in
that of nine-tenths of all criminals. liquor
