ARTIFICIAL seeming of Flowers.

Flowers that have lost something Of
their perfume are now scented arti-
ficially by watering them with an alco-
holic solution of essence, using little
rlvcerihe to fix the odor. Thus, for
violets, the liquid is composed of 100
grammes of glycerine and ten grammes
of essence of violet. In many places,
while scented violets are very rare, the
unscented kinds grow wild in great pro-
fusion. These are now brought up IN
large quantities, scented artificially and
nut into the market in advantageous
competition with the perfumed violets
crown by the horticulturists. Cut
flowers which have wilted from time OF
transportation are revived by being
nlunged into weak solution of sal am
, moniac. Flowers which have little OF
NO scent are also perfumed for sale by

Deafness Cannot Be Cured

by local applications, as they cannot reach

only one way to cure deafness, and that is
by constitutional remedies; Deafness Ia
caused by an infamed condition Of the mu.

this tube gets infamed you have rumDiing
sound or imperfect hearing. and when it Is
entirely closed deafness is the result, and
unless tho inflammation can be taken cut
and this tube restored to its normal con
dition, hearing win be destroyed forever

and the steamer Pentz has taken good
crowds to the View on both her morning
and evening trips. The chute" again

her last trip home at 1920 O'Clock. Those
