An Accidental Vaccination.

DR.. David w. Bailey, who has been
hard worked during the recent vaccin-
alton craze, had the misfortune to vac
cinate himself accidentally and by so
doing has had taste OF what he con-
fidentally tells his Juvenile patrons
doesn't hurt bit" The doctor vac
cinates by means of a capillary tube,
and a day or so ago cut his fore finger
with piece of glass. The vaccine
virus got into the wound and the fin
ger swelled up prodigiousy, and the
throbbing and burning of the inhamed
finger has kept the big physician awake
nights. The swelling has gone down
some now, but still Is very painful.

Deafness Cannot Be Cured

by local applications Il. they cannot reach the
diseased portion of the ear There Is only one
way 10 cure deafness, and that is By coistitu-
tional remedies. Deafness il caused by an in
famed condition of the mucous lining Of the
Eustachian Tube, When this tube is naamed
you have rumbing sound or imperfect hearing
and when 1t is entirely closed, Deafness is the re-
suit and unless the Inflammation can be taken
out and this tube restored 10 it's normal condi-
tion, hearing will be destroyed forever; nine
cases out of ten are caused by Catarrh, which is
nothing but an inhamcd condition Of the mucous

The Cotton Crop.

Manchester. July 2S.-The prevail
ing subject in the local market last
week was the feverishness of cotton in
Liverpool and little business is expect
ed until something more definite is
known regarding the growing crops.
The good tendency observable in the
early part of the week was counteract-
ed, merchants being prevented from
getting the figures they required.
Nevertheless hopeful signs could be
distinguished especially as regards
India where monsoon continues gener-
ally favorable. The chief bar to busi
ness is the uncertainty as to future
values Some miscellaneous bust
ness in cloth was executed principally
for India Considerable eastern bust
ness was withdrawn pending develop
mems. The China trade was dull
but the levant and South American
business was slightly increased.
Yarns We're much restricted owing to
the fall in cotton and there was gene
raj want of confidence
