tne tyranny OF the folk-saying. With
more or less humor, and with a half
belltf in the truth OF uhe adage, yes
terdy wasCandlemas day and weather
determinant brought out all The old
score of references to the grounding
and to The charae sr of the weather
one may expect from the sample that
prevailed eva February ..
Ihe mere fact thst there is nothing
in this belief or the beliefs uha. center
about Februar 2, or any other crucial
daue in the yearly calendar of super
stitiIons, has not affected its continu-
ance, and this is because iahe repeated
error has as great "a fascination for the
human mind as repeated tru5h. There
is, however absolutely nothing in the
belief that animals or vegetation can
anticipate and so forecast seasons.
There lis nothing in the belief that the
weather of amy ONE day is indicative of
the weather for six weeks orsix months
to come, taken by itself alone These
beliefs originated in am age of blank
ignorance, when the causal relation
ship was too often confused with the
causal, and Single coincidence estab-
llshed a theory or confirmed "a super
stltion.
The adages that have come down to

lized wisdom or unwisdom of The
periods in which they originated
Some, it is true, reflect merely the
everyday facts of ordinary observation
which no one disputes, pithtly put, and
IN so far are true enough, but when it
comes TO causation in weather changes
they all err and err previously. The
reason they still tyrannize over us is
on account of the convenience of repe-
tition due to the brief form of the
prose or catchy character of jingling
couplets. A labored stilted error never
lasts The formal half-science of past
centuries has been swept away. But
weather sayings persist by sheer force
of rhetoric, and SO, at the beginning
of the twentieth century, we still baIb-
BILE about groundhogs and what mot,
and feel annoyed at THE scientists who
won't even tell us what the weather
will be in seventy-two hours, let alone
six months.
Science, however, is slowly bowling
over the old beliefs, and even though
they are still repeated, it is clear the

DEAFNESS CANNOT BE CURED

By 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
remedies. Deafness is caused by an
inflamed condition of the mucous lin
ing Of the Eustachian Tube. When
this tube is infiamed you have rumb-
ling sound or imperfect hearing, and
when it is entirely closed, Deafness is
the result, and unles the Inflammation
can be taken orr - the tube restored
to it, ~"r2hal condition, hearing will
be destroyed forever; nine cases out of
ten are caused by Catarrh, which is
nothing but an inflamed 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

Clayton A. Cowgirl many years ago
practicing physician here, died on
February 2, at the residence of his SON
in-Yaw, Edward H. Wilson, Barring
stree., West Philadelphia. He WAS
about 15 years old.
He buht anti resided in the house
now occupied BIZ Superintendent Holl.-
day, in Dover, where he pracuiced
medicine successfully for twelve or
fifteen years before the civil war. Pos
sessed OF superior mental faculties,
highly cultivated, he applied himself
assiduously to the study of his profess
sion and his remarkable skill in the
treatment of diseases, devotion to his
patients and agreeable personality, was
rewarded by large and lucrative
practice.
The only diversion from the duties
of his profession was in 1858, when he
was elected clerk of THE House of
Representatives and served with re-
markable alertness and ability through
l.he session.
In 1862 DR.. Cowgirl gave up his
practice to accept an appointment as
surgeon in the United States army, and
was soon afterwards assigned ito hos
pital duty a, Newbern, N. C., where he
remained in charge until the close of
the war, when ON account of the deli
cate condition of his wife's health, he
purchased a place on ST. Johns river,
near Pllatka, and removed ito Florida.
DR. Cowgirl was appointed comptrol-
ler of the State of Florida, and was a
member Of the canvassing board that
declared the vote of that State in favor
of Hayes, in ahe Hayas-Mlden contest
for President in 1877.
He was twice married-lhis first wife,
Mrs. Lydia Naudain Cowgirl, was the
daughter of DR.. Arnold Naudain, at
one time Unised States Senator from
Delaware. She died in Florida, leaving
son, who spent mos. of his life in
South America, and two daughters,
both of whom are married.
DR.. Ciowgill,s second wife survives
him. Of this marriage there are no
children.

If lit were considered disrepusable
for women to order liquors with lAlnch-
con, or If only dlsrepuyable women did
1T, such house as the Woldorf-Astorla
would mot permi. liquors to be served.
AS the nanners and customs of fash
ionable society are copied by other
classes, the evils resulting from this
state of affairs are widespread.
Because the use of Intoxicating
liquors produce drunk enness among
men we have abundant proof that it
will do the same even more quickly
among women with their more nervou,
and more hIighly organized system.
That continued use will create an APP
petite for liquor and produce drunken
ness among women, lis as sure as that
might will follow day.
That the effect upon women in their
capacity of wives and mothers lis de
grading we mrst all acknowledge.
That men DRINK and that we want
to reach them to prevent drunkenness
lis known, but that the custom among
women is increasing and general not
only at dinners and late suppers, but at
lllncheons, when women are alone, is
equally true.
And i'm the name of womanhood, in
the interest of the children yet to be
born we call upon every class of So
ciety women and every woman who
loves her kind to discourage the Gus
tom of social drinking and help save
the womanhood of the nation from THE
curse of drunkenness.
