peafness Cannot De cured

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 inaamed condition of the mu-
cous lining of the Eustachian Tube When
this tube gets infamed 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 normal con-
dition, hearing will be destroyed forever;
nine cases of Of ten are caused by catarrh,
which is nothing but an infamed condition
of the mucous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars for any
case of Deafness (caused by catarrh that
cannot be cured by Halls Catarrh Cure.

THE BEETLES EYE.
insect Carried Camera Before Pho
Biography Was Found
by Man,

Thousands of years before the in
ventive genius of men discovered the
muItifold mysteries of photography
and worked out the problem of the lens
the little beetle was carrying round
with him a snap camera of the most
unique and interesting character. This
camera was provided with at least 100
Photographic lenses, each perfect and
in natures finest working fettle.
All know that the beetle has the curl
Gus projecting eye, very similar to the
sort one sometimes sees in man him
self. The eye is large and round, or
almost so. 1t can hardly be called
perfect sphere, for it is slightly convex
in shape. Such insects have eyes called
compound, formed not of one lens, but
of several hundreds, set side by side,
like GELS in a honeycomb.
DR.. Allen, Of England, the famous
scientist, as we'll as physician, took the
cornea of the eye of a beetle and en-
ployed it in place of the usual photo
graphic lens Of the camera used for
making photographs of microscopic OBJ
jects. A silhouette of head was past
ed on piece of ground glass and a
lamp placed behind it. A Photographic
dry plate was exposed to the light COM
ing through the beetles eye from the
silhouette and developed in the usual
manner.
The resulting multigraph was circu-
lar. and contained several hundred
images of the profle-one, indeed, for
each facet of the eye. 1t seems reason
ably clear that insects form their judg-
ments of distance from such multiple
images, depending upon the power of
each facet to refract light rays. The
nearer the object the greater would
be the area covered by the images OF
the retina.-CincinnatiE Enquirer.

Twenty years ago, after years of investi
cation and study, DR.. p: Harold Hayes an
nounced that he had discovered and per
fected a treatment which would cure
Asthma so that the patient should stay
cured. Up to this time the best that could
be done by the most eminent physicians was
to give mere temporary relief, and they
frankly acknowledged their inability to do
more. DR.. Hayes treatment has been ad-
vancing steadily ever since and now more
than forty thousand sufferers have been
under care, giving to him and his associates
a vast experience and the highest attainable
skill in dealing with this most distressing
disease. DR.. Hayes system is such that
patients are treated at their own homes
and through a perfected plan of giving ad
vice and directions by mail and sending med
icines prepared in his own laboratory to
suit each individual patients needs, anyone
anywhere can be successfully treated. DR.
Hayes will mail his Thesis with Reports OF
Cases and blanks for free Examination on
application to him at Buffalo, n. Y.

A Comic History of Greece, from the Ear
lest Times to the Death of Alexander the
phia: J. B. Lippincott Company.
The author of this work has set himself
the task of making truly serious set of cir
cumstances, exceedingly funny. He has
unquestionably succeeded, as he expresses
it. He wrote the book for the purpose Of
antiquity who caused him such anguish in
school days. The Comic History of Greece
is witty and humorous, without being vul-
gar. About $50 illustrations illuminate the
lines from the pencils of half dozen artists.
The book is truly tickle tonic for the mel
