aused by an inflamed condition of the mu-
cous lining Of the Fustachian Tube. When
this tnbe gets inflamed you have a rumbIing

entirely closed, Deafness is the result,
and unless the inflammation can be teken out
and this tube restored to its normal condi-

A we'll known New York firm has
introduced what is termed the fold
ing bicycle. The wheel differs slight.
ly from the ordinary style except
that the upper and lower bars of the
frame are crossed by a light bar
that works on a pivot, so that when
a person has finished a ride and
wishes to convert his bicycle into a
shape suitable for transportation, he
merely unscrews a bolt and the
bicycle folds up, turning by the
cross bar. The durability of this
type is not lessened by the fact that
the bar il interchangeable. The ad-
vantages of this folding bicycle are
evident to all who have OCCASION to
transport wheels on railroad trains.
There are a few in use, by reason of
the fact that the demand for the Orr
dioary type of machine this year has
been 30 great that the manufacturers
are able to devote little time to nov.
