peainess Cannot be Cured

Bylocal applications, as they cannot reach

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 iufamed you have a
rumbling sound or imperfect hearing, and
when IL is entirely closed deafness is the
result, and unless the inflammation can
be taken out and this tube restored to its
normal condition, hearing will be destroy.

BOOTS HAVE HAD THEIR DAY.
The Trade Badly Affected by the Increased
War of Shoes.


The diminished use of boots is mat
ter of concern to the manufacturers of
them and to the producers Of heavy
leather and heavy calfskins. Twenty
years ago the calf boot industry was q
leading one in New England.
Whole towns were studded with fac
tories which produced calf boots exolu-
sively. For decade the sale has been
gradually falling off, and today it is Of
hardly any Importance.
A few manufacturers of shoes include
boots as a specially, but tho demand is
too light to amount to much. When
calf boots were more in vogue, manu-
facturers consulted the partialities of
the cowboys, to whom price was a sec-
ondary consideration.
The legs were frequently corded with
silk stitching. The star and crescent
and other fanoiful concentrations were
inlaid on the legs of the boots. The
soles were inlaid with copper, zinc and
brass nails. The cowboys no longer pay
$15 or $40 for a pair of boots. They
want substance instead of show. But
they were not the only wearers of calf
boots They were extensively worn.
Many men prefer them today, though
the number is growing less. The old
fashioned stoga boots were formerly
sold i'll large quantities. They are we'll
nigh obsolete. There followed demand
for lighter and more stylish article.
A kip boot of lighter texture was pro-
duced about equal in appearance to the
best calf boot, but this, too. has fallen
somewhat into disuse Where there
were 30 factories producing boots ex-
clusively, there is now but one. Even
the farmers are using heavy shoes in
stead of boots, and If it becomes ne.
cessity to wear long legged boots they
buy rubbers.
Twenty years ago the entire product
of Salem and Peabody was heavy boots
and brogan leather. Today there are
less than half dozen tanners making
it. Brogans and plowshares are indis-
pensable in many sections Of country,
but there are comparatively few exclu-
sive manufacturers of these now.
The Creedmore, Dom Pedro, English
ties and creole congress are supplanting
them. The decline in the consumption
of calf boots affects the tanners of calf
skins. 1t is question what Is to be
done with heavy skins. The tanners
must necessarily buy more or less of
them. They cannot select light and me-
dunn weights exclusively, and if they
tan them they feel no certainty Of be-
ing able to dispose of them in the fin
ished state. There is nevertheless use
in this world for whatever is good for
anything, and there will be some way
of disposing Of heavy calfskins, though
for the moment it appears difficult to
point out the direction into which they
will be moved. Shoe and Leather Re-

on Train Island, in the middle OF Lake
Hopatcong. He decided 10 have it moved
over the ice to the mainland. The ice
was thick and hard, and with the aid Of
rollers and sharpshod horses the house
was gotten out on the ice. When it got
too dark to work any longer the house
was about 100 feet from the shore. The
next morning the ice had thawed and the
building came near going to the bottom

New fork World.
Mr.. Charles J. Murphy. who went TO
Europe nine years ago in the interests
of American agricultural products. and
especially OF Indian corn, has issued a
statement briefly reviewing his work.
Until last January he was the accredited
representative of the department of agri-
culture.
When he began his work Indian corn
was regarded by Europeans as fit only for
animals. In Great Britain. where he gave
several exhibitions and practical lessons,
much has been done to increase the sale
OF American corn. Greater results were
obtained however. in Germany. Mr.. Muir
ply. after six months of experiments and
tests for the benefit OF royal commits
sion. succeeded in having corn introduced
for admixture with the rye used in the
army for bread. Corn is rapidly becom-
the German empire.
Mr. Murphy's success in Scandinavia
was even more marked. Prior to his work
II was impossible TO purchase even so
much as a grain OF corn in that northern
cline. Now varieties of corn food are to
he found everywhere. Nor was his sue
cess confined 70 corn foods. Almost every
shop sells today California wines, fruits

commodities. He also succeeded in get
