Hoods Sarsaparilla and began to feel
better from the first few doses. l could

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
md that is by constitutional remedies.
Deafness is caused by an inflAmed con-
ditiou of the mucous lining of the Eus-
tachian Tube. When this tube is in
faped you have a rumbling sound or
imperfect hearing, ann when 1t is en-
tirely closed, Deafness is the result,
and unless the Inflammation can be Ia
ken out and this tube restored TO its
nornalocondition, hearing will be de-
,troyed forever, nine cases out Of ten
ire caused by Catarrh, which is moth
;ng but an infiamed condition of the
mucous surfaces.

uuge plies of snow in New York city
Furnish an Opportunity for the
Thenters and the Funny Man.

The mountains of snow in New York
streets assumed such an uir of perma-
nence after the recent storm that thea
ters and other concerns used them
for advertising purposes. % Every
huge pile of snow nlong Broadway
and the side streets crossiug bore
aloft n board covered with the 'litho-
graph of some favorite actor oractress.
Some of the snow piles settled into
yeritable glaciers and it was expected
that the medicine anu tobacco sign
pninters would soon be displaying their
art on them.
Downtown wags were at work.
South William street, which extends
from Broad to Beaver street, is one OF
the shortest streets in the city, being
only about 700 feet long. 1t is also
narrow thoroughfare, hedgedi in by tall
buildings on either side. Moreover,
South William Is II busy street. For
nearly n week this business street was
hurried under snow nearly three feet
deep. For two days the merchants in
the street bore the discomfort with for
titude. Then the strain becarne un-
benrable, and one morning there ap-
peared before the house of William IL
Fearing mountain of snow piled near
the sidewalk. Upon its crest was placed
a board upon which was written this
legend;
White wings, we've grown weary;
o, come with your wagons and cart US
| away.
auAt intervals of 20 feet along the
street arose other mountains of snow
each crowned with its legend. One
read as follows
"If not removed before the Fourth
of July will be stored at government
expense"
In front of 35 South William stree
was q continuous chain of snow noun
tains, literally covered with inscrip
tions. But the one which caused ever,

with small flag, which waved defiant

Cuba as a Market,

1ne proposition of the Chicago
meat-packing houses to erect storage
ware rooms in Cuba for the distribu
tion OF American meats is but a sug-
gestion of what Cuba may become in
the future as market for tne products
of the United States. In the past the
West Indies have bought what they
must from this country, but that was
not what they might have used were
the possibilities Of the island coaxed
or the trade turned this way. Cuba
is a fertile section, aud -sf the ad-
yantages are carried to a good account
nature has so endowed the rich terri
tory that every acre is a fortune.
Since the American troops landed in
Santiago a new experience has COM
meneed: The Cuban now is being
taught the lesson of industry. If he
will work he will have money. Under
a new dispensatlon the natural re-
sources. of Cuba will be developed and
there is no DOUBT that the wants of
the islanders will expand rapidly with
the contact of the people with ener-
getic Americans The Cuban will find
when he works that he can procure
= many things that in the past he has
lived without, and, as it is human ma
ture to want all we can get if we know
1t is to be had, the, growing demands
OF an industrial Cuba are not to be
considered lightly. t.
AS the Island is permitted to use its
energies 5e bountles Of agriculture
and industry, Cuba should become one
of the best customers OF the American
producer and manufacturer; aAHtbe
movement of the big Chioat 10 lufeAt
packers toward Cuba emphasizes, the
conjecture that in the near future the
United States should find there one of
the best markets within reach. Com
merce with the West Indies should in
crease decidedly from this time on

Sailors and Soldiers Will Make OuI
New Possessions Secure and

There is no use in asking what we
are going to do with the Philippines
when we get them, for we practically
have them now. ro
Expansion has been going on very
rapidly of late. We have "taksn on
great deal of territory, and a large
population. The grim pesSimist pre-
diets that we are going straight to the
bow vows, but the poor fellow forsets
that this is not .he first time we have
had square meal. and digested 1t
without any disastrous consequences.
True, we shall have large number
of people who don't speak our lang
uage, and whose habits and customs
are not like ours. But what of that?
AS for Cuba and Porto Rico, why, cap
italists have already had plans made
for winter resorts, and syndicates can
get all the money they want for in
vestment That means something.
MC2ey is not generally rash. The be-
lief is widespread that American col
onization will change the complexion
of these two beautiful islands in a
couple of decades. Who can doubt it?
And the same thing will happen in
the Philippines, though more slowly.
II we keep them, they will very soon
whip themselves into shape. Ameri-
can sailors and soldiers will render
property and life secure, and tie pio-
n er will do the rest.

Admiral Dewey Would Not Object to
a Leave Of Absence. ~.

The correspondent of the Inter
ocean is in position to say chat for
physical reasons sAdmiral Dewey ought
to go hcme. Itiwould lie inexact to
say that he is sick man, but to those
who haze seen him frequently during
his hard campaign here since May last
it is evident that the long strain is be-
ginning to tell gpn him. ,The effect of
the worry and. The high nervous ten
sion to which the Admiral has been
subjected throughout the summer Is
becoming appStentse' AT the same time
the necessity for keeping him here is
practically ended.
When Admiral Dewey was summon
ed to return to the United States a'few
months agoihe informed the Govern
ment that lie thought there was still
important work here for him to do and
the orders for his return were count
ermanded, the Washington authorit-
les realizing, that he was the best man
to deal with any questions that might
arise in the Philippines, r9.4s,l q
AS the situation develops, however,
it becomes more and more apparent
that the part of the work that the
navy has yet to do here will be large
ly of routine character, and Admiral
Dewey, feeling that this is so, would
We satisfied to go home. At the same
time he breads somewhat the recep-
ton which thousand of letters he has
received assure him awaits him on his
return.
Throughout the fleet, as well as
among Americans generally here, there
is a strong feeling that the Admiral
is entitled to take the Olympia home
by way of the Suez canal. 1t would
undo6b, ,edly greatly please the Admir-
al to X I'eive an order instructing him
to rettirn to the United States by that

Two Kinds Of Trusts.

The following intelligent presenta-
ton of the trust question is from the
pen of Hon C. p. Taft, member OF
Congress and editor of the Cincinnati
Times Star Mr.. Taft points out the
fact that there are two kinds of trusts
la kind that succeeds and kind that
fails. The. first kind performs some
indispensable service to the people,
which without its existence could only
be performed in a halfway or unsys-
tematic manner. This is generally the
way of cheapening the cost of somel
product, through improved methods
of manufacture and economical man
agement. The trusts that fail are
those that bfndly attempt to fight
some economic principle by corneripg
some article of universal use and EN-
deavoring to bring about a reversal
of the laws of supply and demand.
Idr. Taft S article is as follows:
The impetus to trade, as was to be
expected, has been the cause of sew
eral new vast organizations of capi-
tai commonly known as trusts. The
most formidable of these is the report
ed -four trust, with capital of $780,
100000 largely subscribed for in Eng
land. Most of these trusts are due not
as free traders have said to the rob
ber tariff" but to the new science of
trade organization. They are the bug
bear of the poor man and furnish capi-
tai fer Socialism, Populism and most
other political isms.
In some cases the formation OF
trusts is temporarily burden upon
consumers, but it must be borne in
mind that there is no trust anywhere
that can absolutely kill competition OIL
its methods bring eXhorbibant profits
The only trusts that are tolerably Sc
cure are those that by reason of econ
omy, scientific research and improved
methods can materially cheaper the
price for the consumer. If anyone
will examine the history of trusts fol
the past ten years he will find in every
case where the organization has at
tempted ITO perver the laws of nature
and to maintain unreal prices, tha
another trust with similar evil designs
has arisen. Between the two fighterI
the public in every instance has beer
the gamer. rffs
Legislation is sometimes needed fol
protection against illegal combination
..of oap8tal, but it will be found that thu
safest protection of the public lies il
the fact that illegal profits are tot
tempting a bait and that no trust il
safe from Jealous competition.
Take two. notable examples Th'
Standard Oil Company, which has beer
the means. of. supplying homes witt
goSdsand safe soil at one-sixth the price
,ofu&rly hhatgeda is perhaps the
strongest of all so-called trusts, but it:
strength lies in the fact that it gives
consumers tthe benefit of its great cap.
ital. The sugar trust on the Other
hand at times attempted to obtain
a false price upon a commodity uset
by everyone, has been fought at every
step by rival organizations and at the
moment that it seems secure a com.
petitor will appear and the price will
go tumbling, to the grief of the mag
mates and the JOY of the consumer
Thus both in the success and failure oi
large organizations of capital the pub
lie is generally ultimately the gamer.

About all Spain realizes as the re-
suit of the late war is the ashes of Co.
Plumbus. All the earthly reminants of
vhe great explorer have beet trans
fered from theff repository at Havana,
and are now ON The broad Atlantic on
1.-THE way to Cadiz. She likewise saves
the Alfonso XIII, that mysterious
warship which was reported at various
times in different parts of the world
during the progress of the war. The
Alfonso, the Conde de Venadito and
the Infanta Isabel sailed from Havana
Monday evening. Our treatment of the
yanquished country has been most
magnanimous. There was nothing in
the past precedents that would have
justified US in demanding the surren-
der of all the Spanish arms, munitions
of war and battle ships in Cuban wat
ers. But we have permitted Spain
to abandon her possessions on this
side of the Atlantic, so to speak, with
colors flyin. The event is unparal-
leled in the history. of the nations.
We have spared bhe grand.c3e dons
a rcat deal of humiliation, but It is
ioubtful If they appreciate the fact.
Still every act of ours has been in ac-
cord with the principles laid down at
the. beginning of the war. 1T was not
a war OF conquest On our part On
the contrary, wa We're content with our
possessions, and ordered Spain to
evacuate Cuba in the interests of COM
