Using Straw for Fuel.

Information comes from the far
west that much suffering from cold
may be averted by the knowledge Of
how to construct such stove as is
used largely in Dakota. The stove
saves the purchasing of fuel, and can
be used in any district where straw
or hay is plentiful. The device can
be made by any tinsmith. 4 drum
is constructed of sheet or stove. pipe
iron, two feet in diameter and four
feet, or more, high. This is placed on
a stand, which may be roughly and
lnexpensively made, with a top of
sheet iron, trimmed to hold the drum
in place. The legs are of hoop iron.
riveted. The top Of the stove is cone
shaped, sliding into the stovepipe
just tightly enough to insure the car
rying away of the smoke and yet to
enable the drum to be removed for
the purpose OF emptying and replen-
ishing. The draught is a hole at the
lower part of the drnm with a sliding
door by which the draught can be re-
gulated. The drum should be filed
with straw, hay or any material of
like nature, and the fire started at the
top. One filling will last about six
hours. The introduction of this
stove into Dakota is said to have been
veritable godsend, and it is so
cheaply and easily made that there is
nothing to prevent it's use in many
districts throughout the country
where the price of coal is too high

Deafness Cannot he Cured

by looai applications as they cannot
reach the diseased portion OF the ear.
There is only one way to cure deaf
ness and this is by constitutional
remedies. Deafness is caused by an
inflamed condition OF the mucous
lining of the eustachian tube. When
this tube is inflamed you have "a
rumbling sound or imperfect hearing
and when it is entirely closed, deaf
ness is the result, and unless the in
Hammation 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 ia nothing but an in

William Taylor, OF Carson, who
was on his way to Chicago to attend
a meeting of the Supreme Board of
Relief, A. o. U. W., in place of the de-
ceased, stated to the Reno Journal
that Mr.. Huntoon was the member
chosen to attend the meeting at Chi
cago, and Mrs. Huntoon did not have
the least suspicion that anything was
wrong when her husband placed the
sack OF money n her keeping and
told her to pay any warrants drawn
by the secre caries of the orders of
which he WAS treasurer. That while
he was absent there would probably
be more or less money drawn and she
could act in his stead. She put the
sack away until such time as he would
conclude his county official duties
and start on his trip. After he had
killed himself a request was found
that Mr.. Taylor should be appointed
a delegate in his place. The circum
stances go to show that he had doubt
less considered self -destruction for
several days, but had carefully con-
cealed any such lintent from his fam
lily and friends
Mr.. Taylor says that the general
opinion is that he did not use any Of
the money for his personal use, but
had loaned small MOUNTS FROM time
to time to different ones until the ag-
gregate had gotten beyond his con-
troll and that many 0? these loans were
a dead loss and could not be collected.
He was not drinking man nor did he
have any inclination to speculate or
gamble, and lived very economically
Much sympathy is expressed for him
and his family in this terrible misfor
tune.
