Impairment of hearing robs one of many of the joys of life. exposes to danger. interferes with capacity for usefulness. limits ability to transact business and earn q living. Many an nually abandon their plans. ambitions and hopes on account of loss of hearing.
 In nearly every case of partial or complete deafness there is another fea- ture that to many is more troublesome than the difficulty of hearing-the dis tracting head noises. These make such an impression on some as to almost drive them insane. The everlasting buzzing. ringing. snapping. rumble or roar abstracts them by day and pre- vents rest at night
 Nine cases out of ten of head noises and progressive hardness of hearing are due to catarrh of the middle ear or of the tube leading from it to the throat.
 IL should be understood and constant ly borne in mind that to restore the hearing and silence the distracting noises a treatment is required that will allay inflammation in the eustachian tubes. reduce the congestion and swelling and stop the secretion of the nucus so that the tubes will be and keep open for the free passage of air. into the middle ear. No locally applied medicine will effectually do this: only a searching constitutional ateratiVe and resolvent will cure catarrh in the deep recesses of the head
 Two acquaintances of the writer were run down and killed by the cars in one year. Both had. catarrh of the head. which had extended up the eustachian tubes, leading from the throat to the middle ear. and were quite hard or hearing. In both cases the coroners jury decided that they. came to their deaths because of inability to hear and heed the signals that were intended for

 That Stuart's Catarrh Tablets de effectualiy cure catarrh of the eusta- chian tubes and the head noises and deafness resulting therefrom is at tested by the following:

An7old tourist was taking q live alli- gator home from Florida. He had one about three feet long in box This was much too large for the road. ac- cording to the ideas of the negro porter ;n the car and he kept his eye on it all the time. He begged the man to put it in the baggage car. but he would not. The lady passengers. were all in the lower berths. and the gator was shove5 under one of them. It was about midnight and all was serene. when the porter looked in and saw the alligator creeping along the floor. He raised the veil: "Ailigator's out. alii- gators out" and broke into the smok- ing room and shut the door. Every body was awakened and much confu sion reigned. When the conductor ap- peared upon the scene the women were screaming and scampering everywhere. One Of them was climbing into an up- per berth.
 Hold on there. madam" he said. there's a man in that berth
