Deafness Cannot be Cured

by local applications as they cannot reach
the diseased portion of the ear. There is
only one way to cure deafness, and that is
by constitutional remedies. Deafness is
caused by an infiamed condition of the
mucous lining of the Eustachian Tube.
When this tube is infamed you have a
rumbling sound or imperfect hearing, and
when it 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 destroy
ed for ever; nine cases out of ten are caused
by Catarrh, which is nothing but an in
famed condition of the mucous surfaces

Book Notices.

The Smart Set for July opens with q
novelette, by Edward s. Van lille, entitled
'Clarissa's Troublesome Baby" story
that is unique. In it situation as novel as
it is striking affords the author constant
opportunity for scenes at once absorbing
in their interest and bubbling over with
humor. From the first line to the last
"Clarissa's Troublesome Baby" is distinc-
tive and delightful, and amazingly clever.
Among the short stories especially note
worthy are: THE Discovery of Claudia, y
a skilful study in temperaments, by Mar
guerite Tracy; Afternoon il Arden, a
modernized idyll, by James Branch Cabell;
Ricardo of the Gray Eyes, charming
love-story, by Guy Wetmore Carryl; "The
Betty Syndicate. social satire, by Bea-
trice Heron Maxwell; ''The Vengeance of
Mr.. Livingstone, comedy of intrigue,
by Justus Miles Forman; "Dying Fires, .
a powerful story, by Frank Norris; "In
the Days of Our Egotism," an effective
bit Of psychological fiction, by Douglas
Story; THE Haunted Knocker, weird
tale. iby Edith Sessions Topper; and BE
hind Green Portieres, wondrOus strange
narrative, by John Regnault Ellyson.
Gilbert Parker, M. p, contributes a
very important and timely article, sThe
OAOVhih VI ohO Mug, III AlCH uC QlS-
cusses the significance of the Coronation
of Edward VII; and the Duchess of
Somerset contributes an interesting essay,
entitled Relating to Toasts Past and
Present"
In the total of contents there are fifty
signed contributions, besides the bits of
humor in prose and verse scattered through
out the number. There is a marvellous
variety in stories and poems, and yet ar
tistic excellence and real literary worth
characterize the contributions. These
qualities have, in the past, won for The
Smart Set its success, a success swift and
complete; in the July number they are
again displayed, ever more admirably
than ever before.
Our readers have possibly noticed the
omission lately in this column of reference
to The Ladies' Home Journal This is be-
cause the Journal has reached that pros
porous stage when it can dispense with
free advertising and it has cut off all ex-
changes notwithstanding the latter gave
monthly notices of twice the monetary
value of the book. Not very long ago
when the Home Journal was seeking re-
cogniEion from the public and was strug-
Cling for existence, its proprietors asked
the aid of the press and the latter promptly
and generously responded. The price of
the book is ten cents per copy, and every
paper that noticed it gave space worth
from 1ve to ten times the value of the
magazine every month. But now the
Journal has reached the point of affiuence,
and does not see the necessity of giving
ten cents worth of book for two dollars
worth of notices and the exchanges have
been cut off. We do not mourn the loss of
the book, as it is cheaper to buy the mag
azine, but it does seem, on careful consid-
Grafton, if any one was to complain and
want to discontinue the favor it was not
the fellow who got monthly returns of
several dollars for ten cents.

Two lessons were administered by the
court recently which should be needed
In one instance man was fined for ne
glecting or refusing to honor a summons
calling him to court to aid the state in
securing justice against lawbreaker
The punishment inflicted was not heavy
but was an indication that the court does
not propose to be trified with and that
when the law calls upon citizen to per
form his duty he must obey or pay for his
neglect The second lesson was the i'm
posing of term of imprisonment upon a
public official who had been recreant tc
his trust. The system of winking al
these violations of law seems to have
reached point where further endurance
is unbearable and this action should be
needed by all who have any idea that they
may trife with the public affairs

Theatres.
KEITH'S


KEITH,S Keith's pre-eminence as
a hot-weather theatre is
again to be demonstrated this week, when
an entertainment of particular attractive
ness is promised. Regular Keithites do
not need to be told that this popular house
is fitted up with genuinely efficient cool
ing apparatus, for that fact has long been
amply proven. The chief novelty this
week will be a one-act comedy, entitled
''The Two Juliets.' in which Lena Mer-
vile, Sydney Booth and Marion Elmore
are to enact the leading roles. The play
lette is said to be original in its type,
cleverly constructed and endowed with
particularly bright dialogue. Cole and
Johnson, the sterling real coon" fun
makers, will also be a prominently fea-
tured team" while the sensational
trapeze performance given by the four
Lukens will no doubt win high favor, as
it has in the past. Snyder and Buckley,
musical comiques; Carlin and Brown, in
broken German farce; the Orpheus Four,
vocalists and comedians; Tom Almond,
the expert dancer; Hafford and Worth, in
character songs; Hayes and Wynne, fancy
dancers, and Joelson and Moore, in an
illustrated song programme, are among
the other contributors to the long bill.

BECAUSE OF precedent established a
colored man who stole some chickens
worth possibly $50, was sent to state
prison for term exceeding two years.
Chicken thieving is a nuisance and there
is little encouragement for farmers to be
at the trouble of raising lot of chickens
II they are to be stolen at the option of
some irresponsible loafer There cannot
be any fault with the severity of this sen
tence, but there is reason to wonder why.
in the case of public defaulter man
who violated trust, who diverted to his
own use large amount of money en-
trusted to him for the benefit of others,
the precedent was established of a light
sentence 1t is matter of pity that any
man should so far forget himself as to get
In position to be punished but having
done SO he must suffer the consequences.

was allowed to go around the neighbor-
hood endeavoring to secure sufficient
money to make up the sum he had taken.
Not being able to do this he was sent to
prison fer one year A chicken thief is
given over two years. The embezzler of
county funds of ten times the value of
the chickens, is given one year The
precedent" established in this caseIseems
to be that it is safer to embezzle county
funds and betray public trust than to
rob hen roost

THE term of William BEETLE, Commits
sioner of Insurance, expires next winter
Mr.. BEETLE is i'll, and it is reported that he
is in a dangerous condition Which of
these reports has caused activity is
not known, but something has created
discussion on possible successor to the
fat office. Asa Francis, of Monmouth,
is said to be a candidate Asa is also
looking after the Office of Sheriff in Mon
mouth county, and is reported to have
announced his willingness to relinquish
all claim on the shrievalty if the other
position is assured him. There are those
in Monmouth who say that when the del
egates are elected Asa will be compelled
to relinquish all hopes of being Sheriff.
However, Mr.. BEETLE is still living, and
it is hardly creditable for any man to be
making efforts for the office at this time.
1t all depends upon how badly man
wants office, however, to determine to
what lengths he will proceed to get it.
