Deafness Cannot Be Cured

by local applications, as they cannot reach
only one way to cure deafness, and that is
by constitutional remedies. Deafness is
caused by an infamed condition of the mu
cous lining of the Eustachian Tube. When
this tube gets inhamed you have rumbline
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.

GUIDED BY INTUITION.
Woman Jumps at Conclusions WITH

al begin to think there is no limit to wom-
ans intuition. 1t frequently enables her to
read character on sight, but what gets me
and strikes me as uncanny is the TACT that
this same intuition projects her knowledge
into the future and makes her about as con-
versant with things to come as with things
past.
LET me illustrate. When the copper mar
ket was so active put in hours every day
outlook. As the result of conclusion
reached by this careful method l invested
500, made good margins, and was finally
glad to let go with a loss considerably larger
than my original investment.
During a period of confidence and in the
enjoyment of prospective riches | had told
my wife of my investment and of the good
things she might expect when the deal was
closed. 1t gave her the speculative fever
and she was bound to make plunge. She
doesn't know what the word stocks means
A market report is Greek to her. She
couldn't figure on the outlook if she had all

came to me with 500 she had saved in old
teapots and stockings and told me to buy

they were dead and buried; that she might
as well invest in a dry oil well or sunken
ship. But her mind was made up. l thought
the lesson would be cheap one for her and

surprise of everyone and she cleared $4,000.
