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 indamed con.
ditlou OF the mucous lining of the Eus-
tachian Tube. When tnir tube gets in
famed you have u rum bins sound or
imperfect hearing, and when it is en-.
tirely closed deafness is the result, and
unless the inflammation can be taken
out and this tube restored TO its norm
al condition. hearing will be destroyed
forever; nine cases out of ten are caus-
ed by catarrh. which is nothing but an
mia med condition Of tue mucous sur
faces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars
for any case of Deafness (caused bv ca.
tarrh) that cannot be curei by Halls
Catarrh Cure. Send for circulars free.

On the evening of November, 18th, 1873,
tfe broke out in the British ship Melanie,
loaded with 500 barrels of petroleum. An
awful mass of flames shot up from the main
hatch and the vessel quivered from stem to
stern with explosion of the barrels. Her
seams opened and the blazing petroleum
poured out into the river, spreading belt
of hre around her. The master and searnen
jumped overheard. Captain Sharp. whose
vessel was lying close.by, propelled a small
boat through the blazing river and after n
severe scorching and imminent peril, saved
the seamen from horrible death.
All over civilization there are thousands
OF men in more imminent danger than were
those seamen. They are threatened with
consumption or are already in the clutch of
that deadly disease. If they only knew il.
help is at hand. DR.. Pierce's Golden Med.
ical Discovery cures 90 per cent. of all cases
OF consumption. It also cures bronchitis.
asthma, throat and nasal troubles and ali
diseases of the air passages 1t is the great
od.maker, flesh. builder, and nerve tonic.
1t makes the appetite hearty, the digestion
perfect and the liver active. The Golden
Medical Discovery" is the product of that
eminent specialist DR.. R. V. Pierce, who,
during the thirty years that he has been
chief consulting physician to the great
Invalids' Hotel and Surgical Institute. at
Buffalo, has treated more cases than fifty
ordinary physicians treat in a lifetime.
Thousands given up by doctors, have tes-
tined to complete recovery under this mar.
velous medicine.
Constipation causes and aggravates many
serious diseases. 1t is speedily cured by
DR.. Pierce's Pleasant Pellets.

You go to drugstore with your pre-

story of the Cat OF rnc iia-.sa.

story of the Cat OF unc iia-sen.
Seldom was the name of cat on
board the old sloop of war Alaska. His
full name was Seldom Fed Its Signifi-
cation is sufficiently apparent without
further explanation. Seldom was, for
a cat, a most intelligent one. He be-
longed to the petty officers mess, hav-
that mess one night inside the shirt of
the tipsy boatswain' mate. Seldom was
nearly dead then, weak, starved kit
ten, but he soon got well and grew big
and wise on hard tack, salt horse and
plum duff. He knew his master,
hammock, and always stood watch
with him, sometimes walking up and
down the deck beside him, at other
times coiled on the tackles of the gun
by which the boatswains mate paced
up an down continually. Seldom rare
ly went on shore, but when he did go
there was high old time; his was al
ways rough liberty.
| remember once his going on shore
in San Francisco, after having been on
board ship for four months. 1t was his
first visit to the city-and his last. Yes,
he came back after a three days run.
One eye was closed and bleeding, one
foot he could not put to the
ground, something had bitten his
tail; all over he was scars and
bruises. Seldom was decidedly the
worse for wear. He got on board
ship noticing no one and no one
noticing him to speak to him; though
every one looked at him. He was
helped by his owner, the soatswain's
mate, up to the top of the engine hatch,
being too much bunged to jump up,
and there he lay, like any old drunken
sailor, for nearly twenty-four hours.
Then Seldom Joined his mess, ate his
meals, and In due course OF time got
well.
What became of him? He was
drowned. Seldom had a way of going
out on the muzzle of a great gun and
sitting near the extreme end to enjoy
the cool breezes of the tropics and
watch the side OF the ship as she
bowled along the sunlit seas. One
day the ship gave lurch and that was
the end of Seldom.

CAMP LIFE IN A NUTSHELL.

BY GEORGE BOYLE, OF FREELAND, PA.
Singing ballads, playing cards,
Eating sidemeat. running guards;
Marching, drilling, exercising,
Laying round philOsophizing;
Learning tactics, standing guard
Till your back aches Lord, it's hard;
Doing laundering, picking trash,
Cleaning camp and dishing hash;
Cooking pork and taking baths,
Eating hard tack, making paths;
Getting yellow MS a tan yard,
Wondering when Wen meet the Spanard;
Getting letters from the old folks,
Fooling, sneezing, cracking jokes;
Thinking of the folks at home
Or else of swccthearts left alone;
Reading papers, reading books,
Fasting, grumblinR, cursing cooks;
Writing letters, cleaning tents,
Sewing trousers, full of rents;
Stewing, growling tlittcring, fussug,
Kicking, bowling, working, cussing;
Drilling like old-time cadets,
Smoking pipes and cigarettes;
Splitting wood and washing dishes,
Getting thanked with divers wishes;
Sporting ben and shooting craps,
Turning in ut sound of taps;
Running out to see the dummy,
Then be called another rummie:'
Getting up at five o'clock,
Wanting fight and hearing talk;
Thinking we're not in the clover,
Wondering when the war'll be over.

At Ephesus, near Smyrna, a large
theatre of the Roman period has been
unearthed by German excavators. 1t
is well preserved, three rows of seats,
the orchestra and the stage being in
tact. Under the orchestra some brass
musical instruments and some actors
costumes were found. In addition the
aqueduct of the town, by which means
water was conveyed to a height of
nearly 300 feet; has been found, as well
as a great statue of Nemesis.

He begged kiss. She frowned med

"A kiss" she said, 'is an expression
Of sentiment. Placed upon the hand it
signifies respect; upon the forehead,
friendship; upon the lips, both-and
more, or neither. Since you have ask

He hesitated.
Through respect and friendship love
may be reached. If he were too bold

INTO the grass and pondered swiftly.
He tried to read her mood. He would
place that one kiss upon her

She was whistling softly.
Her hat was pulled down to her eyes,
covering her forehead, and her hands

FREELAND, PA, JULY Is, 1S9s

Volunteer fire companies cannot be
expected to 90 about their work with
the same skill and proficiency that is
shown by force Of trained and exper-
fenced men. Some confusion and delays
are bound to result while a fire is raging.
Notwithstanding these drawbacks, which
exist here as they do elsewhere, Free
land can well feel proud of the men who
voluntarily undertake to give battle to
the fire iiend when life and property are
in danger. Their work at times borders
on tho marvellous, and the daring spirit
with which they perform their task is
an exempliIication Of heroism which is
mono the less noble because of its limit
ed sphere Of action. Comfort and per
sonal concern have been cast aside so
often by the Frceland boys, and with
success invariably following as a natural
result, that the reliance and sense of
security felt against blaze assuming
alarming proportions have become firm
ly fixed in the public's mind. Other
towns may surpass this in possessing
more modern or more gaudy fire APP
paratus, but none are ahead of Freeland
in the willingness and earnestncss to
minimize damage shown by our fire
fighters. Those who have benefited BY
their work can best appreciate the truth
of this

A servant Is much more likely to be
fastidiousi In her dish washing and care
full with dish towels If she Is provided
with proper ones in the beginning. The
ideal cloth for washing dishes is made
by taking square of cheese cloth,
doubling it twice (making 1t four thick
nesses) and quilting it in large meshes
on the sewing machine. This makes a
towel soft, thick, agreeable to handle
and easily kept white.
