Deafness Cannot by 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 infamed condition of the
mucous lining of the Eustachian Tube.
When this tube gets inllamed you have a
rumbling sound or imperfect hearing, and
when it is entirely closed deafness is the
result, and unless the inflammation can
be taken out and this tube restored to its
normal condition, hearing will b destroy
ed forever; nine cases out of ten are
caused by catarrh, which is nothing but
an inhamed 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

BLACK CLOTHES AND HEALTH.
Physician Arrives at a Sanitary Con-
cICsiOn.

PhyS1ctnn arrives at a SANITARY Coh"
cIUsion.
A physician said recently to a pa
tient of his, woman of wealth in this
city, that he would refuse to treat her
further if she did not give up wearing
black. 1t was not, however, until dis
cussion ensued that he found out how
much he was asking. Not only were
her gowns black, but her underwear
throughout was of the same color.
The doctor then remarked that he had
considered the alternative he offered
her, to abandon black gowns or find
another physician, an extreme meas
ure, and only justified because of her
peculiarly nervous and neurotic state,
but when it came to discovering that
she had nothing but black clothes upon
her person he would refuse to treat
anybody so dressed. The peculiarly
nervous and neurotic state" he con-
,sidered largely explained by this dress
alone. He succeeded in effecting a
ichange in his patients attire through
out, insisting on white-all white un.
.derclothes and as much use. of white in
tID6 outer RdEuGnlS DIS was JOSSiDlC Civ
practicable.
There are hundreds of women SINH
tlarly ill and dressed as she was who
have no idea that anything but ques.
.tion of taste is involved in the color of
their garments. They would not ex'
,pect plant covered up from the sun
by repeated layers of black cloth to
flourish, but they do not seem to know
that light and sunshine are necessary
for their bodies. AS this wise physician
told his wealthy patient, the whole
body needs light and sunshine, as both
have healthy and healing properties
Especially upon the nervous system dc
light and sunshine act, and with es-
;pecial force in cases of sleeplessness
nervous headaches, and prostration.
But physical ills can be prevented by
simply wearing light clothing. The
outward dress it may be impracticable
ito always govern with an eye single
to this one consideration, but the un'
iderclothing can and always should be
white. Every instinct to the incest
taste leads to the came conclusion

WOMAN IN THE HOME.
The Workers Who Go Not Out Into tn
World.

The Workers Who Go Not Out Into the
World.
'tIt's glorious to be independent
ats grand to be able to stand alone
?''It's worth labor, toll and care to react
ones hand out and take what one will
from among the gifts for which strong
men are striving. To make ones own
place, to work so well that work brings
recognition and remuneration-all that
is good" So say the women who never
tried to do these things by way of en-
couragement to those who have been
forced to try. But faint and small the
echo of such words from the ranks OF
the workers themselves. If we could
hear their heartbeats in the stiffness
of the night, in their little country
homes from which they take the bust
ness trains for their days of labor in
the city; in their boarding houses; il
their tiny apartments which they try
to make like homes, we should find them
!throbbing out different tale.
They are out in the world, out of thei1
homes. Yes, but not of their own wish
or will, driven out by such demons as
intemperance, misfortune, or poverty
land in nine cases out of ten working
with the heart still clinging to the
home. Then in nine cases out of ten
there's always somebody else for whom
they work. 1t may be a father, kind
but inefficient and unfortunate. There
lis mother well stricken in years.
There are invalid relatives to be taken
gently down to the grave side, and
money smooths even that weary way.
There are brothers to be helped through
college. There are sisters to be in.
istructed and trained, not in order that
they can go out into the world. Oh!
no, but so ''that they can do something,
too, to add to the income and yet stay
at home"
This is the kind of burden they carry;
these are such utterances as We should
hear if we listened to their heartbeats
in the night. So the nobiest class of
working women, even like men, would
keep their little sisters in the home

The midland journal., 1897-10-22

An eminent French critic said in a
lecture recently in New York that ''To
!distrust what we like is the first re-
quisite of progress in art and in life"
He did not mean that books that are
ldisagreeable are the only books worth
reading. But he did mean that book
which opens up a new field of knowl-
edge, new outlook upon literature or
life, is not at first likely to give the
pleasure that comes from one which
simply reflects the old familiar ideas of
which we say complacently: How
good and true that is, for I've felt it or
said it myself" A book that pats you
on the head or heart all the time is apt
to be little more than a reflection of
your own narrow experience, and you
will not learn anything from it. A book
that makes one feel ignorant is as morti-
flying to ones pride as a superior per-
son.-.Ladies' Home Journal
