Deafness Cannot be Cnred

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. constltu-
tional remedies. Deafness is caused by an IN
Eustachian Tube. When this tube is infamed
you have a rumbling sound or imperfect hear"
ing, and when it is entirely closed, Deatnessl Is
the result, and unless the Inflammation can be
taken out and this tube restored to its normal
condition, hearing will be destroyed forever;
which is nothing but an in6amed condition OF
the mucous surfaces.

The Hawaiian gazette., 1896-08-04
MONUMENT TO KATE FIELD.

1t now seems foregone conclusion
that Kate Field S remains will find their
last resting place in Hawaiian soil.
This seems to be the idea of her near
est relatives, and unless Miss Field in
her will that has yet to be found eX-
pressed wish as to the final dispo-
sition of her body, there can be no
other alternative. 1t remains, then, for
the people of Hawaii to pay the last
tribute of respect and love. At the time
of Miss Fields death our people would
gladly have claimed her as their own;
but feeling that there might be those
bound by family ties who would wish
to care for her earthly remains, they
have kept silently and respectfully in
the background, awaiting the bidding
of other friends of the noble woman.
In the minds of those in these Islands
with whom she came in contact the
memory of Kate Fields life and work
will never grow dim. She was doing a
great work for this country and it's
people, and not until she was on the
very brink of death did she withhold
her hand or think of giving up. 1t is
highly fitting, then, that a monument
should be raised over her grave that
shall not only in a proper manner give
expression to the aloha of those of to-
day, but also recall to those of future
generations the beautiful character of
one who was a true friend of Hawaii.
Already this question has been quietly
agitated, and there is no doubt that
several hundred dollars could be raised
by subscription in a few hours. 1t
would be much better, however, if in
raising a monument fund some method
could be selected which would allow a
more popular and a less directly-mer-
cenary response. 1t has been suggest
ed that her literary and musical friends
prepare program for memorial con-
cert to be given in Kaumakapili church.
Such a move would undoubtedly meet
with general favor and result in liberal
financial return, and we trust that the
plan may receive serious consideration.
