 Dead Bodies.

Miss Mabel Parrish Likes to Be Around
 Dead Bodies.
 Il naSo aIways naG .. uos4lo ,O Do among dead people. I can rememb Der, when l was a little girl, I would beg my mother to take me to funerals. When 1 grew older, I would go to the house where one was ly- ing dead and offer to lay the body out. Nv spare time was spent at the morgues and undertaking establishments, and l made my friends among the dead When I was a nurse in the Detroit sanitarium, would always lay out my patients when they died"
 Thus spoke Miss Mabel Parrish, an at tractive young woman of San Antonio, Tex, who has just taken her diploma at the Chicago College of Embalming. Her work in Chicago was mainly at the county morgue, and whenever body was brought in she was glad of the opportunity to prac- tice on it, whether it was in the middle of the night or at any other hour. Her cour- age and nerve are unlimited, and, most remarkable thing, she has lost none of her womanly bearing or natural tender ness of heart.

DEAFNESS CANNOT BE 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 infiamed condition 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 it's nor nal condition, hearing will be destroyed forever: nine cases out of ten are caused by catarrh, which is nothing but an intiamed 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 Cure. Send for circulars, free.

 She was dainty little thing, and the old gentleman appeared to be prepos- sessed in her favor right from the start, but there was evidently something that made him pause.
 Look here. he said in his blunt fashion. ''I like you and your references are all right. You run the typewriter as II you knew all there is to know about It, and you don't look like a girl who would be sick every third day and want to get away an hour or two early all the rest of the time, but before en- gage you l want to have a clear under standing with you on one subject.''
 "Yes, sir. she replied, looking at him inquiringly.
 'Of course" he explained, "I expect you will be perfectly satisfactory, but If you are not there must be no doubt about my right to discharge you.'
 Certainly not. ,"

 Young woman," said the old gen. tleman impressively, 'I've been ill busi ness here for 50 years, and up to the time woman got good foothold in the business world 1 was ill the habit of en- gazing and discharging clerks as seemed to me best from the standpoint of my business. h all unguarded moment, however, was induced to hire young woman to run a typewriter for me, and l after l found that she wasn' t satisfac- tory to me it took me over eight weeks l to discharge her. l left note on her desk and she promptly came in and wept on mine. l turned the job over to various subordinates, but each time she | came into my private office to do her | weeping, and inside of week she had | the whole force wrought up to a point where business was being neglected, and she was still drawing salary just the same.
