only one way to cure Deafness, and that is
by constitutional remedies. Deafness is
caused by an intiamed condition of the
mucous lining OF the Eustachian Tube.
When this tube gets int1amed 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 it's nor

There were grown in Brevard county

apples that is what the number mar
keted amounted to, and they were sold
for 1926, 400 90. We have not been in
formed as to the amount and value of
the 1894 crop, but presume it was much
larger than for the time mentioned. The
crop for this year will be considerably
less than for 1898 on account of the late
cold spells. The Brevard county crop of
pineapples more than doubles that ofany
other county in the State, Dade coming

THE OLD TUNLEY CLOCK.
Silent for Years in a Garrett Except
When 1t Announced Calamity.

Among the. household goods that Joseph
Tunley brought to America with him from
England more than ninety years ago was a tall
wo oden clock, which had been In the Tuney
family for generations. Joseph Tuniey settled
in WHAT is now the town of Sodus, this country.
He died years ago.. The clock was loud
ticking, loud striking timepiece, six feet high,
ana required to be wound but once week.
1t bad run without stop. variation, or repairs
of any kind for eighty years. when one day it
suddenly ceased going. Expprt clock-tinkers
wer called in TO find out what allied the ancient,
clock and to fix Ii. so the timepiece would run
again, for it was thought fondly of by the
1unley family, the head OF which, in whose
possession The clock was, was Joseph iunley,
son OF the emigfan Joseph.
None OF tie clock makers and members could
discover anything wrong with the old clock.
There was nothing out of repair with its
machinery and there was Doreason they all
said. why it should not tick and strike just as
we'll as it ever had. But Ii wouldn't. Swing
its pendulum as much as they might, no sound
would issue from the clock, and at last the
family reluctantly slowed the stubborn heir
loom In the garrett. This was twelve years ago.

MONTSERRAT AND KEWEENAW.
Captain Fidelius Believes he Saw
Them on December O. 1904.

Them on December 9, 1894.
SAN DIEGO, Jan. 1.-Captain Fldelius
of the schooner Azele. which arrived with
lumber yesterday from Tacoma. recalls
the fact that be saw two steamers off Cape
Flattery on the evening of December 9,
which it is thought we're probably the
missing Keweenaw and Montserrat. The
gale was at its height and it seemed that
the vessel be took to be the Keweenaw
had been outside the straits and past Cape
Flattery, but encountering the storm had
turned back and lay to under the cape.
About dusk another steamer, proba bly,
the Montserrat, passed down the straits
and saluted the Keweenaw with three
whistles, the latter responding with the
same number: The steamers approached
within speaking distance, and after some
talk between them both turned and went
to sea. doubling the cape and passing out
of sight forever.
The. AZalea went out couple of hours
later. The. gale was kicking up a terrible
seq, the decks were deluged. and water
flooded the cabin. The deckload shifted
and the schooner. drlfted helplessly until.
morning, when the captain made out that
he was seven miles from Cape Beale. There
were three distinct seas meeting off Cape
Flattery. according: to the skipper, one
from the northwest and one alongside from
the southeast the latter the. strongest.
and the current from the straits, which,:
meeting the southeast sea raised such a
.commolion thatit is IA wonder that any:
vessel lived through it. The Azalea
was taken. up. and thrown: down like a.
book upon the: floor by the sudden and I'M.
