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 inflamed condition of the
mucous lining of the Eustachian Tube
When this tube gets inflamed 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
FORMAL condition, hearing will be de-
stroyed forever; nine cases out of ten are
caused by catarrh, which is nothing but
an infamed condition of the mucous sur.
faces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars fol

The jubilee exercises, celebrating
the sixtieth year of Queen Victoria's
reign, has passed into history. The
world contributed, in fulsome praise
and otherwise, toward making it a
success. Praise of the good Queen
has been on the worlds lips and the
press has echoed and re-echoed it un-
til it has become stale and nausea
ting. 1t would i'll become us to say
differently but the truth will never
hurt the good. During the sixty
years reign of this good Queen
scarcely one has passed that did not
see her empire engaged in armed
conflict. OF the scores of wars
waged in this time hardly one could
by any straining be called one Of self
defense, and not one was waged in
behalf of human rights or for the
furtherance of human liberty. All
were instigated by the grab-all spirit
and had for its prime motive the ac-
QUESTION of territory-the enlarge.
ment of the good Queens dominions.
Ordinary piracy is not popular from
the fact that sooner or later the pirate
is caught and ropes end follows by
common consent. The greatest land

The Commissioner of Patents is max.

The origin of yankee Doodle. >

" Yankee Doodle" is claimed by
many nations. 1t was known in Eng
land as g Nankee Doodle in the time
of Charles l. The Hollanders had an
old song to this air called Tanker
Dudel." 1t is said to be also an old
French vintage song, native Hungar-
ian air, and the ancient music of the
sword dance of the Biscayans. In
June, 1855, Dr. Richard Schuckburgh,
regimental surgeon under General
Braddock, thought to play joke on
the ragged, battered Continentals by
palming off the Nankee Doodle " of
the time of Cromwell upon the Colonial
soldiers as the latest martial music. 1t
at once became popular, but a quarter
of century later the joke seemed
turned when the Continental bands
played this same 9 Yankee Doodle as

Attention to babys food is the most essen

have yet to hear of single instance Of
cholera infantum where the child enjoyed
the advantage Of an exclusive diet Of lactated
food.
Not only is lactated food the SUI rest known
preventive of all bowel and stomach dis
orders, but it is the one perfect substitute
for healthy, vigorous mothers milk. Its
ability to ward Off disease is due to the same
nourishing qualities that make itso perfect a

If a child is being weaned this best Of all
food should certainly be used. The closest
/ investigation has shown that babies are
/ stronger and grow faster, and that fewer fall

food than upon any other diet. Frail, sickly
children get fat and sturdy. Their steady,
healthy growth is due to the complete
nourishment of every part of their small
bodies, and the ease with which their diges
tive organs convert lactated food into solid
flesh and bone, even in the hottest days OF
summer.
Lactated food is, indeed, triumph in in
FAINT feeding.
The best physicians prescribe it, intelligent
mothers recommend it and use it; and babe!
living on it prove its worth by their healthy
