Deafness Cannot be Cured

bv local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
There is only one way to cure Deaf
ness, and that is by constitutional rem
edies. Deafness is caused by an IN.
famed condition of the mucous lining
Of the Eustachian Tube. When this
tube gets inhamed you have rumb
ling sound or imperfect hearing, and
when it is entirely closed Deafness is
The result, and unless the Inflammation
can be iaken out and this tube restored
to it's nolmal condition, hearing will be
destroyed forever; nine cases out of ten
are caused by catarrh, which is nothing
but an infAned condition of the mn-
cous surfaces.

The chinese Muddle.

Matters are not improving IN Emma

highly probable that differences among
themselves, that is between the Chinese
proper and their Mauchu rulers, will
almost disrupt the empire and maintain
the present revolutionary condition OF
affairs indefinitely.
The invasion of the country by the
foreign armies has resulted in loosen
ing of government control everywhere
and we read OF the Boxers, the Triads
and the Black Flags, each sort OF Sc
cret political society with more or less
revolutionary teachings, growing rest
less or in active revolt. While the
powers are probably sincere in their
declarations that the Chinese Empire
will not be partltioned, it is by no
means certain that the final outcome OF
the foreign invasion will not be that very
thing, due to the general o7erturning
of authority and consequent rising OF
the secret societies.
There can be little question that one
of the effects CT the invasion has been
to impress upon the Chinese people the
fact that much Of the claim to superior
goodness and integrity made by the in
vaders has been proven false; we refer
to the unconsionable looting OF the cities
and towns by the allied armies and
worst of all the missionaries themselves.
Men who have been sent among them to
preach the gospel of truth and honesty
and to establish moral code based up.

as being among the looters who have
been required to hand over stolen goods
the Chinese are bad lot, but they are
not so ignorant as to fail in being i'm
pressed by such record, made by those
who have been forced upon them that
through their precept and example the
Chinese might become a reclaimed and
a better people.
The solution of the great Chinese
problem has not yet been accomplished
and it bids fair to become a reproach
to the "civilzed" nations ere right
eous end is reached.
