Deafness is caused by an inaamed condition of the mu- eous lining Of the Eustachian tube. When this tube gets infsmed, 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 iss normal condition, hearing will b. destroyed forever; nine cases out oi ten are caused by catarrh, which is nothing but an inhamed conditioa of the mucous surfaces.

The postofiice department at Washington has ruled that the wnter has a right to regain posses sion of a letter, provided be can prove to the satisfaction of the poet master at the office from which it was sent that he was the writer of it. Even fl letter has been forwarded to the person to whom it has been addressed, It may be recalled by 6 telegram through the mailing office. The reason assigned is that the United States is only the agent while the letter is in transit. The decis ion is important to business men and to private individuals.-Ex.
 Business men of Arizona will re- member Jack Miller and his travel ing companion, William Barrett. They were known as the Damon and Pythias of travelling men. The former died some time sInce in Phe- niX, being nursed and ss tenderly cared for during his illness, by his friend and companion, Barrett, as he could have been by wife or mo- ther. Pneumonia was the fatal ill., ness which robbed Barrett of his bosom friend and 1t is a singular CO., incidence that very soon after Mil ler's death Barrett was taken down with the same disease and travelled to deaths very door, in Los Angeles. but has now recovered.
 The recent success of the British arms over the MahdIsts in the Sou don demonstrates that even fanatic ism cannot stand against drill and discipline. But in the earlier days It is easy to understand why the Arabs swept all before them. An ingenious tenet of Mohammed taught his followers that the hour and minute and second of death were fully ordained. Therefore the believing soldiers self-regardless fighting was for A while inVincible. Confucius, ZoroasteE, Buddhs, Brah- ma, Mohammed-esch of these great religious thinkers now has bis fol- lowers beneath the far-fung flag of the United States. It is conse- quenily the highest political wis dom to understand what each of our new wards believes. The February number of the Cosmopolitan will contain the first chapter of "The Founding of an Empire" by John Brisben Walker. The first part gives a bird's-eye view of Mo hammed and his religion.
 The Solomouville Bulletin advises tine Doth legislature Eot to move the territorial prison and the advice is approvingly copied by the Phenix papers.
