Deafness cunnot 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. Deaf ness is caused by an inf tmed condition of the mucous lining of the Eustachian Tube. When this tube is inhlmed you have a rumbhng sound or imperfect hearing, and when it is entirely closed. deafness is the result, and unless the in dammation can be taken out and this tube restored to it's normal condition hearing will be destroyed forever, nine cases out of ten are caused by catarrh, which is nothing but an inf4med con dition of the mucous surfaces

No doubt the most striking of modern developments in electricity today IS the manner in which adj djacent water powers are heinz harnessed to furnish power for manufacturing and other power pur' noses. The recent transmission of power derived from the Niagara Falls ls but one episode in a great development which has but Tn small measure at tracted that attention that it deserves. Instances have already become numerous, but if the work goes on at the present rate. power transmission plants will soon be among the commonplaces Of electrical enterprise. What is more particularly noticeable is that distances ot 2O or 3U miles no longer count, at least in this country. Perhaps the best instance Tn Eurone is the l9m1le transmission from the Falls of Tivoli to Rome, while in thls country, examples of this kind and mag nitude multiply. The American cities and communities that have absorbed dls- tant water powers are by no means few
 Ruffalo has reached out electrically 22 miles to Niagara; Fresno, California, 8 miles to the San Juaqlln river; Portland IA miles to the Willamette; San Bernar- dino. zJ miles to the San Antonio noun tains; Hartford a dozen miles to the Pennington river; Salt Lake City good dozen miles to the Big Cottonwood can von and the Wahsatch lakes; Sacrament to more than p miles to Folsom. Sup
 elementary to these come dozen or more in Texas, California, Minnesota, and here at home in Montana. Two very important enterprises are now In course of construction in thIs state. One near Helena to furnish power to the city of Helena and surrounding country and the other being built on the Madison river by Butte and Colorado parties to supply Butte with power for manutac turing purposes as we'll as that Of mining The latter line will probably be from fifty to sixty miles in length. So far all this has depended on the utilization O. water power, but those who are prnHe tc predict for the future may see the e4ergy of coal transformed at the pits mouth in the same way, and sent a long dis tance over aerial wires instead ot hauling the coal over the railroads. There is nt good reason why cities should burn coa and remain dirty, when the coal nigh just as well be burned somewhere else for if it were not cheaper to resort t' electricity, it might pay to get out thu gas and pipe that. People do not us' milk or cheese CT butter any the les nowadays because the COWS are kept II the country Western Mining World.

The old, cruel check rein has stittened up the fore legs of more livery horses than all the work they have done. So, too, of many track and driving horses in the country. The check rein Injures the muscles of the neck, and the fore legs are affected. Often the shoer is blamed when it is the check rein. The humane societies have the cooperation Of the city horse owners, who have taken ott the cruel check rein from the carriage horses and work horses. Aside from the cruelty, this affection of the usefulness of the horse should induce the thought less, kind hearted people who drive horses to forever banish the torturous check rein as d savage relic that is pain ful to the horse and painful for most peo ple to see. In behalf ot the horse, we entreat you to abolish the check rein l you still thoughtlessly torture your horse with it.-Western Agriculturist.

most peculiar circumstances of obtain

cured money on a judgment note about

owned real estate The real estate

Juror James alone voted for acquittal.

by informing them that he was the &C

: Kansas Home Made Laws.

The little town of Andale, in Sedg-
wick county, Kansas, which has pop
ulation of about 800, has no regular
city government, but Justice Hine has
promulgated unique series of home
made laws for the government of the
three joint keepers who are doing busi-
ness there. The population OF Andale
is made up largely of German Catholics,
who are not very radical prohibition
lists, but, as the code of laws indicates,
they do not propose to have the joints
open while mass is being celebrated.
following are the laws
1. All joints or saloons must keep off
the main streets and must be kept de
cent.
2. They must not sell liquor to habi
tual drunkards nor to Minors unless
by their parents.
8. All joints and saloons must close
at 10 o'clock at night except on Sun
day.
~-4. No joint must be kept open DUR
ing mass from 9 o'clock, a. M, to 10 a.
m., and must close during vespers.
5. No joint or saloon can sell liquor
to habitual drunkards when their wives
object to the same, nor to minors.
8. Any joint or saloon keeper violat-
ng any of these rules will be prosecut
ID to the full extent of the prohibitory
liquor law.
z. When any OF the joints or saloons
Violate these rules it shall be the duty +,
II the signeis hereto to swear out a
for the county attorney and
lelp to prosecute them to conviction.
These laws are closely followed and
q consequence there is but little trou-
lie.

Guard the Spanish Sovereign.

One OF the most curious customs in
connection with the court of Spain is the
provision made for the safety of the SOW

little king are watched over throughout
the night by a body of picked men, who

distinction in the army. 1t is by them
that the palace gates are locked at mid
night with ceremonious solemnity and
reopened at 7 o'clock in the morning.
Their affectionate fidelity to the person
OF the sovereign is as transitional as their
strange and time honored privilege.

Steel Track for wagon Roads.

The Department of Agriculture is
taking an interest in the use of steel
tracks on ordinary roads, the idea be
ing to have a steel track some eight
inches wide in the place of the rut that
marks most roads. This track is in the
form of a steel trough. bottom up, with
suitable joints and a small lip to guide
the wheels. 1t is about seven sixteenths
OF an inch thick and weighs 65 pounds
to the yard. Such, at least, is the
weight of track devised by General
Roy Stone, of New York, in connection
with the Cambria Iron Works. Sample
sections have been built in New Bruins
wick, N. j.; Geneva, N. Y and Lenox,
III. Other experiments will be made
with the steel track at Agricultural
Experiment Stations. The track is
imbedded in the gravel of the road and
is not above its general surface. The
cost per mile is about So, 500.
