cases they will be like escaping steam, and in

The bark Chase, which has recently re-
turned to Baltimore from cruise to Ber-
muda, will be held until the completion of
the examination and all vacancies have
been filled, when she will proceed to sea
again, with two classes, for an extended
cruise to Europe, the West Indies and the
Madeiras. On this trip the youngsters will
be instructed only in professional subjects,
such as seamanship. gunnery and target
practice. and after two years of this duty
Will be commissioned third lieutenants.
The Treasury Department has appointed
the ten cadets on the Chase as third lieu
tenants, and they will soon take duty on the
revenue cutters of the service. The newly
designated young men are Thomas l..

WHERE DEAFNESS BEGINS.

The disease that causes Interference with the
flee passage of air through the Eustactan tube
usually begins In the throat and extends from The
throat into tt. tube.
The threat is exposed TO every change Of weather,
to particles of dust fCatiI in the air. TO nOxious
gases and E:tle germs which live in the atmOs-
in this part.
Tie little tube which leads TO the cars from the
throat is lined with 4 sort Of v"lvcty structure
called mucous membrane. This is a continual ion

THE TREATMENT THAT CURES.

THIS Treatment bc"ause it is healing and
soothing and luieting ana because in removing the
disease it does away with the swelling and in-
ILLUMINATION that blocks the tubes in the and
prevents the entrance Of sir behind The car drum.
The TOW treatment Of deafness is simply a matter
of science coupled with the laws Of the higher
'hantcs, combined with common ordinary, every
day scrsc.
In treating deafness the length Of time required
Tor depends cHtir'ly on three things. First,
how mach Of the Eusta,hian tube Is diseased and
closed up. Second. how long the deafness has
lasted. Third, how faithfully the treatment Is
carried out by the patient

THE CAUSE OF EAR TROUBLES.

What Is necessary for the people TO know in
regard to ear trouble is, first, that deafness and
roaring and buzzing sounds heard in the head come
from disease that begins within the head and
back part of the throat They must understand
that the disease that causes these conditions Is
situated deep down and back of the ear drum, and
that no treatment that is applied from the outside
can each II or ever cure deafness rid the
pa tlent of the annoying sounds that accompany
this condition.
The ear consists Of tube leading from the out
side of the head to a little curtain which blocks
this tube up entirely. Then there is another little
tube that begins in the back part of the throat
and extends up the other side of this same little
curtain This curtain that prevents the two ear
tubes from joining Is called the car drum. In
health the drum stands straight up, being
kept in this position by the pressure of the air
in the tube the outer side, and by the pressure
Of the air in the tube on the inner side Of the

Doctor McCoy's clerical force has
been utterly unable to supply the de-
mand through the mail for copies of
the Monograph on Deafness. In re-
spouse, therefore, to many unanswer-
ed inquiries, and for the benefit of
The Star readers, the full text of the
monograph is herein reproduced. In
spite of its absence of technical os-
tentation, its mastery simplicity and
directness, sometimes its almost
homely frankness, it will be regarded
for many years to come as classic
in medical literature, and is worthy
of being carefully preserved by those
who are interested in the history of
the advance of medical skill.

THE ARTIFICIAL EAR DRUM,

And then cert;in 9th II individuals, who were
greater fools than any who went before them, in
vented artificial ear drums, and claimed that 10y
putting these in The they could make deaf pco-
pie hear. This practice is Thar foolish II is
criminal in its deception drum, artificial
or otherwise has any value unless 1t is supplied
by the special nerves OF hearing that carry the
unds to the brain. and scarcely think that
those who sell the drums would Ice bold enough to
claim that ther drums cont lined auditory nerves.
The fact is that trel- Incnt was ever discuv-
cred that did reach the Of deafness and
