DEAR Mrs. PINKHAM:-I have suf-

A Backsliding Princess.

Like all the royal family of Hawaii,
from the days of the missionaries
down, Princess Ruth was nominal
Christian, or at least church mem
Der, But about thirty years ago there
was a lava flow from Mauna Loa
which threatened to engulf and de-
stroy Hilo. Continuous prayer meet
ings were he'll in the foreign church
in Hilo to avert the threatened de-
struction. But steadily nearer the
white-hot stream of melted lava came.
At last Princess Ruth, throwing
aside all her pretensions of Christian
ity, made pilgrimage to Hawaii,
forced her-,way to the very edge OF
Kilauea's burning lake, and there
made sacrifice and prayers to Pele, the
goddess of fire. At the very hour of
this act of devotion the lava flow
stopped and Hilo was saved. This
had the effect of securing great popu-
larity for Princess Ruth among the
natives, and very near the effect of
undoing fifty years work of the mis-
sionaries. Chicago Record.

Curb and snafiie Combined.

A Canadian has designed a single
rein for use Cd brides which has all
the advantages both of curb and snaf-
de reins. The single straps are at
tached to the bit by springs, with
chains running to the ends Of the
curbs, which will not operate until the
pull on the springs becomes strong
enough to stretch them. The springs
are stiff enough to withstand any or
binary pull, preventing the use of the
curb until it becomes absolutely
necessary.

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 CON
stitutional remedies. Deafness is caused by
an inflamed condition of the mucous lining
of the Eustachian Tube. When this tube
gets infamed you have ruinbling 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 it's normal condition, hearing will
be destroyed 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 for any
case of Deafness (caused by catirrh) that
cannot be cured byrHall's Catarrh Cure.

The Irony OF Fate,

1t is said that the favorite hymn of
Abraham Lincoln was one beginning
Let not the spirit Of mortfl be
proud" and he illustrated in his fate
the sentiment of the hymn. AT the
moment of his triumph, when the
south was PROSTATE under his feet as
theresult of five years of anxiety and
extraordinary effort, he was struck,
down by an assassin, while Mr.. Jeffer-
son Davis, the Representative of the
lost cause, outlived all the prominent
leaders opposed to him on the union
and died peacefully inhis bed. an old
man, honoreds yby his people and rec
'spected by his enemiess . He had suf-
fered defeat and years of captivity, but
his last years were spent, happily, under
circumstances congenial to ma OF his
cultivated tastes. ths
The American fleet achieved great
victory over Admiral Cervera at Sam
tiago, but not one of the vanquished
ships of the Spanish fleet remains to
be made spectacle for the gratifica-
ton of the triumphant nation. The
Maria Teresa, wrecked on the coast OF
the island on which Columbus is said
to. have landed, tells story Of disap-
pointment for the victor. A like feel
ing, but more bitter, attends the re-
moval by the Spanish from Havana OF
the remains of Columbus. His discov
cry of new world gave Spain wealth
and empire for 400 years, but the
pride Of conquest ends in disas-,
ter, and the return of the dis
coyerer's ashes to the peninsula coin
cides with the close of SPANS
colonial career. Should storm
swallow Up the vessel that bears back
to Europe all of Columbus that is
mortal, what an ending Of the great
romance that began in 1892 ! The
moral is, of course, the futility Of
human hopes, the brevity of human
greatness. Empire won by violence
and administered with injustice is an
insecure possession. We seize the
Philippines, but what will be the Sc
quel of this high handed proceeding
when the drama Of fate is played out
to the last act? Might makes right.
