Deafness Cannot be Cured

By local applications as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
There is only one way to cure deafness,
and that is by constitutional remedies.
Deafness is caused by an inaamed con-
diti0n Of the mucous lining Of the eus-
tachian tube. When this tube is inflamed
you have a rumbling sound or imperfect
dearing, and when it is entirely closed,
deafness is the result, and unless the in
flamation can be taken out and the tube
restored to its normal condition hearing
will be destroyed forever; nine cases out
of ten are caused by catarrh, which is
nothing but an inflamed condition Of
the mucous surfaces.
We will give one hundred dollars for
any case Of deafness(caused by catarrh)
that cannot be cured by Halls Catarrh
Cure. Send for circular; free.

A large conconrse of people gathered
last Thursday at the NJ. E. church
to pass their respects to one whom
all loved. Joe Oakley was born
March is, 1875, and died Tuesday morn
ing, October |, 1895, at o'clock. He
has been in poor health for some time,
with but little hope of his recovery, but
all hoped that something might be done
to stay the hand Of death; that he might
be spared to his family and many
friends. To know him was to love him.
He was naturally Of a happy disposition
and always had bright smile and
cheering word for both old and Young.
Six Of his girl friends rObed in white,
mostly of his graduating class acted as
pail bearers. School was closed during
the services and the scholars marched to
the church. The business places were
also closed. The flowers were lovely,
given by the Christian EndeavOr Society,
his Sunday-schOol class, Sunday-schOol
teacher and others. Rev. Gray Otliciated
at the services, taking from Mark these
words as a foundation to his remarks
"And Jesus, behOlding him, loved him"
Also from Hebrews: Though he bt
dead, he speaketh." Thus ended a shOrt
but useful life and one cannot but fee
that the world was made better by hi,
having been in it. Though anxious t
live, in conversation with his mother {
few days before his death he said. "You
boy is all right" He was member o
the +. B. Church and was faithful an,
active worker in the Sunday-school.
THUS one by one they pass away,
From earth's unfriendly shore,
To that bright world of endless day,
Where partings are no more.

School Savings Banks as Means of
Teaching Children Economy.
Recently at Fremont O., the Catholic
knights, OF Ohio, amended their cOnsti-
tuition to read thus: "NO application
for membership shall be received from
any person who is employed in busi-
ness or occupation where the death.rate
exceeds twenty per thousand, as shown
by the statistics of the best insurance
societies" This was understood to be
passed for the purpose of excluding
saloonkeepers and bartenders, the extra
hazardous nature Of their business being
unfair to other members insured.
Il
School savings banks in this country
were first instituted in Long Island City,
N. j., in 1885. About one hundred
schools in Eastern Pennsylvania have
adopted it and many Others in the West
ern and Central States. The plan,
which occupies about fifteen minutes OF
school time per week for its administra-
tiOn, is as follows:
Collections are made once week, or
Monday mornings, the roll being called
for the purpose from a book especially
adapted, that the amount of deposits
may be credited with the stroke of pen.
When the names are called by the teach
er each pupil who wishes to deposit
stops up with his money and school card,
naming the amount as he hands them to
the the teacher, "5 cents" or whatever
it may be. She, with figure, credits
the sum on the rollboOk and the child
card, returning the card, which he
holds as memorandum and receipt.
The first collection in the school is de-
posted in a bank aS general school
fund. When pupil has deposited SO
cents or 81, as may be agreed, he is Civ
en- a bank book and the money is placed
to his personal credit by the bank.
When he has 50 he is allowed an interest
of 3 per cent. by the bank, and has the
advantages of an adult depOsitOr, acting
through the bank.
The money collected by the teacher il
placed in an envelope. SO printed as to
require at her hand but the number o.
school or class. No envelopes in which
the teachers send the money to the prin-
cipal are sealed, and deposit slip &C.
companies. The principal sends the en-
velope to the bank, where the amounts
are counted. The children's bank books
have individual credits made in then
monthly by the bank, and the books are
9 allowed to be taken home once month
for family inspection. The cooperation
I of bank is readily obtained, and they
1 sometimes et'aside special securities t,
: protect the fund.
1t is believed by many that the instruc
t ton the children receive in the valuC
and accumulative power of money, il
honesty and care, and in the delights O.
individual possession and distribution
prepares children for stronger ant
=, more self-reliant manhood and woman
hood.

of the bank charged Williams with tn,
forgery he admitted it and secured TIL
bank for the amount its due. Williams
