THE DEACON'S DONATION.
And Why 1t Was Not Accepted by Il
Town Committee.

And Why 1t Was Not Accepted by the
Town Committee.
1t had been decided at a public meet
ing of the citizens they that would have
acombination library, reading room and
social club in Wampton. The commit
tee, made up of substantial members of
the community authorized to act upon
their own Judgment, was in session at
Deacon Closes, he having a site that he
wanted to sell for the proposed building
Il regard this movement as deserving
of popular approval and aid, p" said the
minister ''It aims to secure a wider
intelligence and better tone of morali-
ty among our people. Every one should
give according to his means. "
After the editor, the doctor and the
banker had talked in the same vein, the
lawyer proposed that they get down to
business deacon Close he contin-
ued, 'has a desirable lot for which he
asks So, 000 1t strikes me as a pretty
stiff price, but have no doubt that he
will make us donation of $500 and
make deed of the site for 81, $780,"
There was applause, in which the
deacon did not, participate, but rising
reluctantly he delivered himself as fol-
lows; Il must say, that 1 agree with
what has been said In praise of this en-
terprise. Our town needs it and there
is no place for it more desirable than
the lot l have offered. OF course 1 want
to bear my full share of the expense.
''Since 1 offered you this lot" the
deacon went on, ''there has been a great
Improvement III times. Money is easier,
prices are better and realty gets an en-
HANGED value because Of the general
prosperity. will let you have the lot
for $4,000 and throw off $500 as a do
nation. -
The minister muttered something he
was glad the rest did not hear. The
doctor laughed, the banker scowled and
the lawyer moved to adjourn i'll voice
that told the deacon he would have to
seek some other market for the lot that
had taken such long and sudden jump
in value. Detroit Free Press.

They Love Dante.

A magnificent upper chamber Of the
municipal palace (the Palazzo Vecchio)
in Florence is set apart in memory Of
the great poet Dante. To it each of the
SO provinces and all of the larger cities
and towns of united Italy have con-
tributed a banner in his honor. There
are over 800 of these banners in all, and
the donors, in eager emulation. have
tried to make each offering more beau
tiful than the others. The banners are
Of the differing colors of the provinces
and bear their arms in exquisite en-
brcidery or in paintings by the first liv-
ing artists
The fervor of the homage paid here to
the immortal Italian poet Stirs the heart
of even the passing stranger. Whatever
the jealousies or estrangement of these
people, beside his tomb they are united.

Mailing Candy Abroad.

A young man who apparently knows
a girl i'll London came into the office the
other day and asked whether candy
could be sent abroad through the mails.
So he was taken over to the postoffice
and the state of affairs was laid before
an official, who instigated an investiga-
tion. After long time he returned and
reported as follows:
II am very glad, l." said he, "that you
asked that question. Its answer shows
a curious state of affairs. In this coun-
try you can send candy up to pounds
as merchandise for l cent for each
ounce. If you want to send candy
abroad you only have to pay cent for
every ounces, but you can only send
IL ounces i'll each package. If it weighs
more than 10 ounces you have to pay
letter rates, or 10 cents an ounce for the
whole thing.
''That is to say, you can send 10
ounces to London for cents, but il
would cost you 10 cents to send it to
Brooklyn. So if you are thinking Of
sending a pound it will cost you 81. go.
The stamp department is right over
there. "
"Thank you very much" said the
young man. "I just happen to remem.
ber that the doctor has forbidden the
girl to eat candy. New York Mai

ICE CAVES.
In California With Their Product as Clear
as Crystal.

In California With Their Product as Clear
as Crystal.
In Modoc county, CAL, is an immense
field of lava covered with a beautiful
forest of conifers, which is inhabited by
deer, bear, panther, lynx, coyote, porou-
pine and numerous fur bearing animals
whose pelts are of value to the trapper.
1t was in these lava beds that the Modoc
Indians made their stand against the
government troops some years ago and
were with very great difficulty destroy
ed. 1t is here that the ice caves are
found, and from them the Modocs drew
their water supply while besieged by
the troops.
One never having been over lava
field can form but little idea of the
chaotic manner in which the ingenious
wOrkmen have left the products of their
labor. The only order observed is disor-
der of the most exaggerated kind,
wherein every mass of rock has been
twisted or raised or depressed or arched
over some cavern in different way from
! that of its neighbors. The caves scatter
| ed throughout these lava beds are of
very varying shapes and dimensions
Some are mere covert ways, with an
arch of stone thrown over them. Others
are immense chambers some yards from
the surface, another kind is sunk quite
/ deeply and may be in a series of cham
bers united by corridor that opens at
/ the surface, while another kind seems
| to go directly to the center of the earth
without stopping.
1t is here that the stores Of ice are
| found, which is formed from water that
filters i'll annually from the melting
SHOWS above. Every winter the lava
beds are covered with a fall of snow
which varies from two to ten feet in
depth. The temperature over this region
| in the cOldest weather is often 20 OF
more degrees below zero, so that any
water that might be in the caves is
frozen solid, unless the caves mouths
should be entirely covered with snow,
which is not often the case. Now, wheI
spring comes and the snow melts. the
water percOlates through into the colo
storage chambers beneath and is there
cOngealed by the prevailing cold. 1t il
in this way that the ice has been made
and stored for years. And were thest
caves accessible to market they would
furnish the purest of ice to many oitiel
for years to Ome.-Popular Scienct

Deafness Cannot be Cured

by local application, 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 inhamsd con-
dition of the mucous lining of the
Eustachian Tube. When this tube
gets inhamed you have a rumbling
sound or imperfect hearing, and when
it is entirely closed Deafness is the re-
suit, and unless the Inflammation can
be taken out and this tube restored to
its normal condition, hearing will be
destroyed forever; nine cases out of
ten are caused by catarrh, the mucous
sufaces.
