The Mystery of Sausage.

The composition Of the sausage Is not
only complex. but It is often obscure.
In this country the preparation of this
las It should be) useful article Of food 10
connned to the employment Of minced
beef and pork. The only exception
probably Is the so called "black pud
ding" which is made with pigs blood
and perhaps some heart and kidney.
Abroad, however. the sausage is COM
pounded of a much wider range of sub
stances. These include brains, liver and
horsedesh. The last substance is gener-
ally considered repugnant, while, Of
course. it is fraudulent to sell sausages
as beef or pork containing horsehesh.
Occasionally. however. sausages do not
contain meat at all. but only bread
tinged with red oxide Of iron and
mixed with varying proportion Of fat.
The remarkable feature of borsefesh is
the high proportion Of glycogen which
1t contains. and this fact enables the
presence Of hossefesh to be detected
with some amount OF certainty. The
test which depends ON a color reaction
with iodine has recently been more
carefully studied and with more salts
factory results, so that the presence OF
5 per cent Of horsefesh IN sausages can
be detected Lancet

Deafness Cannot Be cured

by local applications, as they cannot reach
tho 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
mucous lining Of the Epstachian Tube.
When this tube gets inaamed you have
rumbllng 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 nor
NAL 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 surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars for
any case of Deafness caused by catarrh
that cannot be cured by Halls Catarrh Cure.

without Shutting or Evasion.
From Fenimore Cooper and other au-
thorities we have gained the impression
that the Indian Is stolid, severe indi-
vidual, with no sense of the white
mans humor, but one red brother show
ed himself quite a civilized joker in the
United States court. He was on the
stand in holly contested case, and At
torney d. R. Bailey Of Sioux Falls wac
after him in the most approved fashion
of cross examination. Finally, after ap-
parently frightening the Indian with
the awful consequences which would
follow the slightest deviation from this
truth, Mr.. Bailey took his most porten-
tous tone and solemn manner and de-
manded:
s'Now, sir, I want you to tell me the
exact truth, without any shutting or
evasion. I want you to look me square
in the eye and tell me how you get your
living, SIR
The Indian looked straight at Mr..
Bailey, and. with that imperturbable air
familiar to all acquainted with the red
men. simply said, EAT.
The courtroom roared, even Judge
Garland smiled and Mr.. Bailey let the
witness go.-St Paul Pioneer Press
