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 mucuous lin
ing of the Eustachian tube. When
this tube gets inhamed you have a
rumbling sound or imperfect hearing,
and when it is entirely closed Deaf
ness is the result, and unless the in
fiammation 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 inflamed con.
dition of the mucous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars
for any case of Deafness Caused by

A couple who we suspect called
themselves lady and gentleman
arrived in town last Saturday just as
the afternoon passenger was going
south and from all appearances they
wanted to board the trian, but not
understanding the rules that govern
the operation of trains they proceeded
to the county bridge just south of
town which is near the track and gave
the train the signal to go ahead. We
do not know what idea the train crew
came to, but think they thought the
couple were trying to cross the track
and wanted to let them know they did
not wish to board the cars. Well
they were left behind and after hot
discussion they concluded to start for
DEBORAH, but the report we heard this
morning they were both found dump
ed into ravine near the road side
about two miles out of town, lying
there helpless, the man having an
arm and three ribs broken. They were

HINTS ON SPRING HATS.
But Little in the Way of Elegant Sim
pIicity Appears in the Seasons
Millinery.

Spring hats have blossomed out in
a very realistic way, with flowers in
the lead for decoration. Roses of
every tint are first on the list, but
every sort of exquisite floral design
is in evidence on new French models.
Round hats formed of foliage trails
and rose clusters are among the most
fascinating of the seasons styles.
The shaded ping roses, with delicate
petals that seem ready to fall at the
slightest motion, are used for either
brims or crowns, sometimes roses
cover the entire crown, and the grace
fully arranged green leaves form the
brim, or the arrangement is reversed.
Many of the large hats are made yet
more imposing by reason of very
large bows of wide satin ribbon ar
ranged at the back of the hat, says
the New York Post. Again, a Span
ish scarf is draped around the base
of the crown, with the ends falling
over the hair at the back. Some of
the scarf ends on summer hats will
reach to the waist and these will be
1OA hiSo 'oiiouSiy VI LII uSOS, NChC-
tan, Chantilly or Flemish lace, or of
net, chiffon, or tulle. Running to ex-
cess in the matter of dress or mil
lnery has for some time been a
foible if not a serious fault of La
Mode. Excess tends to the ostenta-
ton that most generally indicates
vulgarity. Thus far spring millinery
shows but little in the way of elegant
simplicity. Nearly all the flowers are
very pretentious as to size, and on
the greater portion of the French
models they, with draperies of chif-
fon or tulle caught with large con-
spicuous buckles, and combined with
huge loops of ribbon or plumes va
riously disposed, impart to the hat a
top heavy and greatly overdone eff
feet that is neither really artistic,
attractive nor becoming. It's attrac-
ton to the great majority lies alone
in the fact that it is the fashion.
The prettiest hats yet shown are the
rose and foliage models above men
toned.

MINNESOTA NEWS.
Butter Industry.

There are at present in Minnesota
about 100000 cows, producing annu
ally 50,000,O00 pounds. of butter, repre-
senting value of about $11 100000.
Eighteen thousand families in Mime
sofa are supported by this industry.
It yields more than the total barley
and corn crops, double what the pota-
to crop yields, and it gives employ
ment to more men than any industry
of the state.
The factory product alone of butter
and cheese for the year 1900 was S.
100000, which placed the industry
next only to the -four mills and the
lumber mills in point of value of an
nual production. From 1890 to 1900
the increase in the value of the dairy
product of Minnesota was over 800 per
cent, and from 1895 to 1900 the in
crease in the product was 125 per cent,
At the present rate of increase the
next state census will show an in
crease never equaled by any industry
of Minnesota. There is capital of
S4,00O,000 invested in the creameries
of Minnesota, and these creameries
distribute $S,000,000 year to their
patrons.

NEW DRESS NOTES.
Pretty Fabrics That VIII BE In Vogue
for the Coming Sea-
SON

The very latest word from over the
sea is that the short box coat of velvet,
satin, brocade or MORE is to rival the
long raglans, newmarkets and empire
cloaks put on over rich evening dresses
of every description during the pres
ent season. Unless the skirt seams of
the long enveloping wrap are slashed
it is almost impossible to raise the
trained skirt from floor or pavement
with any degree of grace or ease, and
in the interests of fashion as well as in
the interests of spring and summer
trade the new elegant box coat is pre-
sented-easy to put on and off, made
with open flowing sleeves, lined with
white satin and lavishly trimmed with
accordion-plaited chiffon frills about
the neck and down the front, says the
New York Post.
Among new canvas and grenadine
fabrics square-meshed weaves will be
very much favored, particularly those
with the one-third-inch block and a
tiny square mot. New Stuart and 9th
er fancy plaids composed of grouped
lines forming half-inch blocks, the
smaller squares combined with circles
or segments of circles, are also to be
seen. Chenille or velvet dots, ranging
in size from the pin to those larger
than a pea, are still favored both
among fancy trimmings of tulle, chif-
fon and crepe lisse, and on light tex
tiles designed for entire gowns. The
demand at present is for black mate
rails, but white chiffon, India null,
silk yelling and grenadine are likewise
correct.
Among the high-class dress fabrics
now on exhibition are plain and fancy
eoliennes, Examines, crepes de chine,
chiffons and nuns veilings, poplins,
silk-warp henriettas and mohairs,
plain, dotted and embroidered ba-
tistes, fine Scotch wooden in novel eff
fects, new satin-striped and artistical-
ly-fgured French challies, black gren-
adines in all silk or silk and wool, in
dots, figures and stripes, and albatross
weaves for street, house and evening
wear.
Applique decorations in lace, jet, cut
velvet or cloth, and bits of otter, sable
or mink in leaf designs, scrolls and
various conventional patterns are in
creasingly en- evidence on every sort of
elegant gown, redingote, wrap and
elaborate dress skirt.

Will Investigate.

The state dairy and food depart
ment, it is stated, will take up the in
vestigation of all syrups used in the
fiavoring of soda water with view to
ascertaining their quality and in what
degree, if any, they are deleterious.
Last year the investigation was un-
dertaken, but on account of the great
amount of work which heaped upon
the department, was not finished.
Enough interesting data was obtain
ed, however, to arouse the curiosity
of the department officials and prompt
them to make another effort this year.
The department officers were led to
make the investigation by the suspi-
cion that many of the pure fruit juic-
es, so-called, were made of glucose
and contained aniline dyes. The col
oring matter drawn from certain
grades of candy, from jams and soda
fountain syrup has been used by the
department to color strands of yarn
the colors having a brilliancy and
permanency very pleasing to behold.
