the plipits the story of Christ's res
direction from the dead and the great
hope that it holds out to the world
was told. Large congregations were
present ut every church. In the Cath

vices were especially beautiful. The
Sunday schools observed celebrations
with exercises appropriate to the oc-

FISH POMACE.
Deiicncy from the Hindu Table
That Is Finding Favor in
America.

Increasing intercourse with India
has made Americans familiar with
many of the table delcacies of the
Hindu home. One has made so favor
able an impression that it bids fair
20 be adopted in the new world, says
the New York Post. This is the fish
pomace, a favorite side dish in the
English clubs all the way from Egypt
to Japan. Any fish will serve as the
base. The bones and skin are re-
moved, and the flakes of flesh are
put into a mixing bowl. Here they
are spiced, sailed and covered with
an oil or fat. This is worked togeth-
er till it becomes a pomace or paste,
and is then put into jar and COW
cred with layer of fresh oil or
melted fat. The jar is then stop
pered or sealed. In this state it will
keep for months and even years, and
will retain the full flavor and deli
cacy of the composition. In India,
odd effects are produced by employ
ing fishes with different colored
meats. The red macassar is as red
rs the shell of a boiled lobster. The
yellow mullet is almost as chromatic
as the salmon.

1t was long afterward that the riddle
concerning the double identity was

few months after the tragedy on board
the Daydream, Middleton inherited the
fortune of an uncle, a wealthy IRON
master, and with ii assumed the sur

The Cause of Deafness

Deafness is generally due to catarrh
extending from the nose to the ear.
In 95 per cent. of all cases the cause
of deafness is catarrh which begins
in the throat and nose, and which has
been neglected until it extends up into
the ear. Enlarged tonsils, snoring,
sleeping with the mouth open, arc in
dications of the commencement of this
trouble. Chronic catarrh is likely to
end in deafness.-Good Health.
