What a Whale Weighs.

Have you any idea of the size of the
common Greenland whale? Nillson.

animal to average one hundred tons,
or two hundred and twenty-four thou
sand pounds. That is to say whale
weighs as much as about eighty ele
plants or bears. OF course some run lar
ger than this. There are tales among
old whalers of whales one hundred and
ten feet long. and weighing at least
one hundred and fifty tons. But such
are not seen in these days. A seventy
foot whale is big one now. Still, it
may give some idea of what monsters
are occasionally killed when we men

PENNsYLvANIA.s SKY FERRIES
Queer Transit for Miners Across the
YouxhioRheny River.

queer transit Tor Miners Across the
YouEhioRheny River.
The sky ferry at Coultersville was
one of the first to be built across the
Youghiogheny. and 1t dates back to
about 1890. when eight miners formed a
stock company and built a machine.
The mechanism. says the Pittsburg
Dispatch. of the affair consists of n
cage suspended from two travelling
wheels, which run along one-inch
steel cable stretched from bank to
bank. and tightened by means of a
simple windlass built of timbers. The
cage will carry four passengers, and
the propelling power of the ferry is
furnished by n wlndlass, which is turn
ed by the passengers and winds up a
light line, carrying the cage across the
stream.
To raise the ferry to safe distance
above the river platform Is built. and
on this another set of machinery is
placed, so that if the ferry is on the op-
posite side of the river and a passenger
wishes to cross, he can wind the ma
chine over to him and then make the
trip across the stream.
The sensation of swinging ont over
the river in one of these ferries is rath-
er startling. as the machine starts out
from the bank with swoop that car
ries it half way across. or to the lowest
part of the slack of the cable. Then the
traveller has to wind up the windlass to
reach the other shore No accident has
ever happened on any of these ferries.
but at Coultersville they tell story of
a miner who. after an argument with
his wife. In which he was getting the
worst of It," escaped to the ferry, threw
off the windlass line. and allowed the
machine to coast to the middle, where
he was safe.
According to the story, and 1t loses
nothing in the telling. the woman bonn
bafded him with stones for an hour,
but a woman was never noted for her
accuracy in throwing stones, and the
man laughed at her Invitation to come
ashore and take his licking like a man.
Then new factor in the case turned
up as a group of hungry miners reach
ed the shore and those on shore were
unable to reach him. BY this time the
woman had become tired of her exer-
else. and the man solved the problem of
his own escape by falling out of the
cage into the river. to he dragged out"

Deadly dangers lurk in the ground left
bare by the departing snow. All Winter
long there have been accommodating deadly
disease germs.
These have been protected and Kept alive
by the covering of snow and now. with the
first warm days, these death-bringing MI
crobes are awakened by the rays of the sun,
and as the ground dries they are carried 10
all corners of the community in the dust
that is blown everywhere by the Spring
winds.
The human body at this time is particu-
larly susceptible 10 these germs. especially
the germs of feverS. The system has been
depleted by the foregoing Winter. The blood
is sluggish and filled with impurities. The
nerves have not recovered from the tension
they have been under for the past months.
The stomach the bowels. the kidneys, the
liver are all at their worst.
II is, therefore. not strange that these
germs Of disease find fertile ground in which
TO thrive, flourish and develop into deadly
Ills.
Spring is the time of year when one should
fear an attack of fever. especially when the
system Is depleted one should dread any Sc
we're iilne-s. The vitality is at low ebb.
There Is less power IF resistance to throw OF
disease. and II is on this account that fatal
ities are much greater during the Spring
months than at any other time OF the year.
There is but one way TO ward on such

Deafness Can't Be Cured

By local applications, as they cannot reach the
diseased portion OF the ear There is only one
way to cure Deafness. and that is by constitu-
donal remedies. Deafness is caused by an in
famed condition o. the mucous lining of the
Enstachian Tube. When this tube gets iniamed
you have a rumbling sound or imperfect hear
ing and when IL is entirely closed Deafness is
the result, and unless the Inflammation can be
taken out and this tube restored to its normal
condition. hearing will be DESTROYED forever
nine cases out of ten are caused by catarrh,
which is nothing but inflanied condition OF
