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
inhamed condition of the mucous lin
ing of the Eustachian tube. When
this tube is inf1amed you have rum
bling sound or imperfect hearing, and
when it is entirely closed deafness is
the result, and unless the infamma-
ton can be taken out and this tube re
stored to it's normal condition, hear
ing will be destroyed forever. Nine
cases out of ten are caused by catarrh,
which is nothing but an infared con-
diiion of the mucous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars
for any case of deafness Caused by
catarrh) that cannot be cured by HalPs

The members of the Machinists'
union, reinforced by members Of the
National association, are calling on
the managers of the different factories
IN Kenosha this afternoon seeking to
have the manufacturers sign the new
scale. AS the men put it lit is the last
call, and if the scale is not signed the
men will go out on Monday morning.
The manufacturers have met the ma
chinists half way, but none have as yet
signed. Wells & Messier have agreed
to allow the men to work under the
new agreement pending the settle
ment of the strike IN other cities.
From present indications it appears
that about fifty machinists in different
factories of the city will go out on
Monday.

Big Crowd Attends the Dance Given by che

The cause of labor is popular one
in kenosha and this fact was never
more clearly demonstrated than last
evening, when the striking mo1ders
at the Simmons foundry we're given a
benefit dance at Co1umb ia hall. Every
body donated things to make the party
a success and with this assistance the
strikers managed to secure i1arge sum
of money which will be distributed
among them. The music was donated
by the orchestra and cigars and liquid
refreshments were freely given by
different dealers in the city.
The hall was crowded the greater
part of the evening and many tickets
were sold to people who could not at
tend the party. Dancing was thefeat-
ure of the evening and the strikers and
their friends had very jolly time.

yet profaned 10y the ak. Go to the
orchard and you see the same oriole;
walk around the field and there is the
identical woodpecker, to feather, that
you knew when barefooted boy.
The birds seem never to grow old,
never to change, never to die. Yet a
study of them and their actions is ever
fresh and interesting; as interesting
almost as study of people and their
actions. On this path or within easy
eyeshot there were twenty or more
nests. That many l found and of
course many l did not find, since no
special search was made for them. He
who loves the birds, who has them in
his eye and in his ear, will always find
birds, even where others declare there
are none. l have wondered that birds
did not learn to go to woodland
springs, natures hand mirror, to behold
their own reflected loveliness. We
could pardon bit ofvanity in creatures
so comely. Sometimes I would see a
feather or two floating in the spring on
my pathway, and one morning saw a
red-eyed vireo take a bath there. With
dash the little bather dipped into the
clear water, splashing it right and left
with futtering wings; rising i'm
Eediately, he clung head downward
on the bow of small tree Just above
the spring. Down he went again and
up as quickly, perching this time on a
higher limb. Here he ruff1ed his
feathers and shook them vigorously,
combing them with his beak. A few
more dashes into the water and away
he went through the green woods.

kee-ow." So solitary are this. birds
general habits that any manifestation
of fellowship is noticeable and pleasing.
After the young were hatched, if L
stopped under the nest, an old bird
would perch near it and make a most
peculiar noise, wholly unlike that of
any other bird. 1t was a decidedly
wooden sound, as like the stack, tack,
tack" made by striking tree with
stick as anything l can liken it to.
One morning a cuckoo sat on limb
overhead, not twenty feet from me,
and called persistently, running again
and again through all the cuckoo notes:
"Ku, ku, ku, ku;" then that wooden
sound; "kee-ow, kee-ow-oo, kee-ow-oo;
ook, ook, ook." Evidently this was a
young bird, calling for more breakfast,
for the old one soon flew up with an
insect in her beak. The young birds
tail was baton, bobbing fast or slowly
to suit the notes of the voice. Every
now and then it would be jerked up
suddenly, like the fitting of balance
pole, apparently to maintain the birds
equilibrium. His experience in perch
ing was as yet limited. In August I
noticed cuchoo whose usually neat,
satiny costume looked weather beaten
and ragged, it being the moulting
season. He was taking dinner, and in
the act gave abundant evidence of his
value to the orchardist as a destroyer
of insects. He sat carefully peering
under every leaf till some moth or
caterpillar was spied,.. when, he would
spring after it and catch it, with much
fluttering of wings, and eat it after
alighting again. When he captured
katydid, it required considerable time
and effort to swallow it, and while he
struggled with it hungry mite was
evidently getting its lunch on the back
of the birds head, as with one foot he
clawed at it viciOusly. P. B.

secrecy, secrecy" rod or two farther
away. He plays hide and seek with
me and plays it well, though he does
all the hiding and 1 all the seeking.
Now and then L might catch a glimpse
of his bright yellow throat and breast,
made all the brighter by contrast with
the broad black mask across the fore
head and over the eyes. Although
unobtrusive and retiring, loving the
thick leafy tangle near the ground, he
is a dear little fellow, innocent and
sweet.
Just inside the farm fence, where
the poison oak completely covered the
ground, was the nest of another ground
ling, the Kentucky warbler, cousin
of the last named vocalist. l would
walk up to within two or three feet
and look down on her. The rich yellow
line that runs above each eye and curls
behind it gave her a big-eyed staring
look that was almost grOtesque as she
sat on the nest down under the noxiOus
leaves. A very thick cushion of dry
leaves under the nest well protects the
eggs and young against the chill and
dampness of the ground. This vivacious
songster is very abundant there.
That prophetic anchorite, the "rain
crow" or yellow-billed cuckoo, build a
nest hard by my path, twenty feet
above ground, on a platform made by
the forking branches of a hickory and
the vine of Virginia creaper. 1t was
a rude structure of coarse twigs and
contained three greenish-coiored eggs
when found. These were hatched to-
gether and the young successfully
launched. At this instance, there
seems to have been no irregularity in
laying and incubation which sometimes
result in there being found in the same
nest a fresh egg, newly bird
and one about ready to take wings.
Let us hope that in this respect our
bird is becoming orthodox. 1t is now
rarely charged with that reprehensible
practice of slipping its eggs into the
nests of other birds, as does its Euro
pean namesake. Once 1 heard one of
the cuckoos call, "ku, ku, ku, ku,"
some hundred yards away, and i'm
mediately the mate, quite near the
nest answered, "ku, ku, ku, kee-ow,

4 n INTERESTING article de-
~ voted to the ancestry of Illus
n trjous Americans, appeared in
recent issue of the st. Louis
Republic. Colonel Teetor, an authority
on genealogy and the writer of the
sketch, says of General Grants an
cestry: authenticated records show
that the Grants are descended from q
certain Prince Wodine who came out
of Asia about the year 600 and settled
in Norway, where he built great city,
and where prayers and sacrifices were
made by the Norsemen."
Colonel Teetor does not tell the
name of the city or the country in Asia
Prince Wodine originally came from,
neither does he state why this prince
travelled across Europe to it's most
distant border before he built city.
The prince may have come from
China. How it would have surprised
General Grant to have been Informed
that his ancestors were Chinese. We
can associate the memory of Grant
with the Vikings, but to believe our
great soldier sprang from Tartars or
MongOlians is shocking. The Grant
family needs no coat of arms of myth
ical origin. The plain blunt soldier
has carved his insignia in the temple of
fame with his sword, and a grateful
people will keep his memory green
long after this mythical prince is for
gotten.
In speaking of Chauncey Depew's
genealogy, Colonel Teetor says: 81
traced Depew, De Pew or Dupuy to a
little mountain in Dauphine, France,
which gives its name 'Dupuy' to an
ancient and illustrious family. Chaun-
cey Depew modestly chooses the coat
ofarms employed by a latter progenitor.'
The colonel says the insignia on
Chauncey's crest is: "DO and bear

IN BOYHOOD lived on the west
side of Cumberland mountains,
and walked every morning and
evening through half mile of
woodland in going to and returning
from school. Down the steep side of
the ridge was a pretty spring set like a
mirror amid the trees; along the border
of little farm, by the one-roomed
cabin of an old negro, sticking like a
wart on the edge of the woods, past a
limestone quarry, by the doorway of a
little church at the juncture of two
highways, path leads me to the little
red schoOlhOuse. Along this shady
way during the spring and summer I
formed many charming acquaintance
among the birds; and here are set
down few observations about small
number of them, disclaiming any
spirit of partiality. Although usually
in hurry, with but little time for
lettering, to tell all that was seen and
heard and enjoyed in this brief walk of
twice eighty rods, would make a
volume of fair size.
Though older than the history of
man, the birds seem always the same.
Their plumage, their songs, their WOO
ing, their coming, their going, are
probably the same today as when the
mound builders had none to dispute
their sway; the same as when the
Cherokees softly trod those forests not
