How to Select Olives.

In buying olives housekeepers will do well to look with suspicion on any that are obviously too cheap. Often these are not only wholly lacking in flavor, but are positively injurious. They should not be too dark in color and should firmly resist the teeth when bitten into. The stone should be slight ly pink, and above all there should come from a good olive an indescrib- able but quickly recognized fresh ap- petizing smell that Is large part of its agreeable quality.

Deafne.. Can't be Cures

oy local applications, as they cannot reach the diseased portion of the ear. There is only one way to cure deafness, and that Is by con- stitutional remedies. Deafness Is caused by an infiamed condition of the mucous lining of the Eustachian Tube. When this tube gets infamed you have rumbling sound or lm- perfect hearing, and when 1t 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 an intlamed condition of the mucuous sur faces.
 We will give one hundred dollars for any case of deafness (caused by catarrh) that we cannot cure by taking Halls Catarrh Cure. Send for circulars, free.

No player shall be eligible to win more
than one prize, except in the cases Of the
players winning the gold and silver medals
and they shall be entitled to the prizes won
by their respective teams.
The officers of the league several years
ago very wisely adopted the provision that
no player should be eligible TO win more
than one prize, as 1t had occurred that a
single player had made several of the
prize-winning records. This has been car
ried out again for this seasons play. being
modified only to the extent that the two
players standing first and second in ave-
rage at the end of the seasons play will
also be entitled to the prizes offered for
best average in each club. These club
prizes are an entirely new feature and
are possible only on account of the num-
ber of donations secured by the commit
tee.
For the first time in a number Of years
no "booby" prize has been offered, so that
one feature of the annual wind-up celebra-
tion will be missing when the awards are
made next spring.
The season opens one week from tonight,
and all of the clubs are hard at work on
the selection of the players who will COM
prise their respective teams.
The league at its last meeting adopted a
resolution to hereafter allow the captain
of the visiting team the choice of slleys.
In all previous seasons this has been oe-
cided in the primitive manner Of tossing a

OVER THE LINKS.
A GOlfng Roll of Honor Among the
Possibilities.

With only one more big tournament to be
decided, that at Lakewood, N. j., in
Thanksgiving week, the question Of an Of
fetal ranking of golfers prominent in the
years play is being discussed with renewed
interest. The feeling is growing among the
larger clubs that the work should be un-
dertaken by the United States Golf Asso-
citation at an early date A similar plan
has been followed by the Metropolitan
League of New York, with excellent re-
suits. and its wider application seems i'm
perative, in the opinion of those who have
the interest of the game at heart. An Of
fetal announcement by the United States
Golf Association of the best players in the
country, grouped by classes, is the scheme
advocated and it's merit would seem to lie
in the aid given handicapping committees
in arranging open tournaments where golf
ers from all parts of the country are gath
cred as well in the stimulus afforded
to the players themselves Such ranking
has been announced by the National Lawn
Tennis Association almost from its incep-
ton, and the good results accomplished are
now sought by golf players.
Those back of the project will urge the
matter at the next meeting of the United
States Golf Association, and are sanguine
of success AS long as the international
