Deafness Cannot be Cured

by local applications, as they cannot reach the diseased portion oft ear. There is only one tional remedies. Deafness is caused by an in- famed condition of the mucous lining of the Eustachian Tube. When this tube gets inf am- ea you nave @ & &rumbiing sound or imperfect is the result, and unless the inflammation can be taken out and this tube restored to it's TOT nal condition, hearing will be destroyed for ever; nine cases out of ten are caused by catarrh, which is nothing but an inflamed con- dition of the mucous surfaces.
 We will give One Hundred Dollars for any case of Deafness (caused by ca.arrh) that can not be cured by Hall Catarrh Cure. Send for circulars, free.

SOME editor whose pencil sets right for cyphering has figured out that a man 70 years old has lived $40 months 3, $40 weeks 25,- 567 IA days 613,608 hours, 36,- 816,40S minutes. He has been awake 7,044 days and has, slept 8,522 days. He has walked 171, . 839 miles, or more than five times around the earth. If he has spoken an average of five words per minute during his waking hours it would requre 1000 vol ums of 400 page each, each 5 by ' inches set in long primer type, to record his utterances and these utterances if printed on sheet four inches wide, in the same type, would reach a distance of A miles 1,O13 inches. He has eaten about 39 tons of solid food, of about 29,00O pounds of meat, like number of vegetables and the same quantity of breadstuffs, his drinking supplies have amounted to about 375 barrels. If he smoked three five cent cigars each day since he was 20 years of age the cost to him has been S2, 737.50. If he had laid aside nickel every time he bought a cigar and invested it at the end of each year so that it would have drawn 6 per cent interest, compounding annually, at the end of 30 years he would have to his creeit the sum of S16, . 113.24.

AGAIN IT TOUCHED TEN CENTS.
Cotton Market Reached Highest
Point Yesterday.

The ''long expected happened yes
terday morning when January cotton
touched ten cents in the contract mark
ct. It was a long, weary and steady
pull, requiring seven weeks of patient
effort, but 1t was finally done.
And millions were made by those on
the right side of the market.
Opening at 9.82, the market ad-
vanced by slow degrees until the goal
was reached shortly afternoon. Then,
for the first time since October 9th,
January cotton touched ten cents.
But only for few minutes did it re-
main at that figure.
A perfect avalanche of contract sell
ling poured in from every quarter, it is
said, and almost Immediately the
market broke twenty-five points. The
decline was from 10 cents to g. rs, where
it stood at the close of the session.
But this was only the speculative
side of the story. There is another.
Spot cotton has gone up in proper
ton to futures and commands the
highest figures paid for it since the
slump in October.
In the Americas market 81 cents was
freely paid yesterday for the finer
grades, which price was full up to Saw
annah prices. However, very little
was offered at this fancy figure as far
mers want ten cents "even money
And it will go even higher than that
after the Christmas holidays. Eleven
cents, even, is not at all improbable.

Old Maid Assembly Tonight.

The bazaar was given over to the ba-
bies yesterday fternoon and for an
hour these infantile prodigies, their
dotlng mammals, anxious nurses and
distracted judges held high carnival
there.
All the pretty babies IN town were
not there, but something less than
hundred of the finest came to the show
and made Rome howl, It wouldrequire
the wisdom of Solomon and the cour-
age of Dewey or Caesar to describe
their fnepoints. and ye scribe possess
ing neither
Well, perhaps the least said the bet
ter from safety standpoint,
But the babies were up for prizes and
three drummers, strangers within our
gates, were called upon to pass on
their fine points. Checking their bag
gage, and with magnificent courage
and plenty of life insurance in case of
errors made, they boldly stepped into
the ring.
Selling goods to miser was picnic
in comparison to the job had
unwittingly undertaken.
Two classes of prizes were offered to
the prettiest and handsomest babies
over one year of age, and also the pref
tiest and handsomest under one year,
making a total of four prizes given.
After surveying the improvised nur-
sery with its squalls, and probably an
ticIpating ''squall' within the ranks
of possibly disappointed mammas, one
of the judges looked fervently towards
heaven and then at the ground outside,
mentally calculating. But he didn't

Young Henry Lumpkin and young

the prettiest and handsomest baby
: respectively under one year of age,
while little Miss Newell and Miss
Hooks, the latter the daughter of Mr..
W, W. Hooks, were awarded similar
prizes for babies over one year of age.
The two little kings and two tiny
queens were indeed among the finest
in this human deck, and the three Sol
onions who made the award of prizes
were congratulated upon their cour-
age and wisdom
