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
Eustachin Tube. When this tube is in
famed you have rumbling sound or
imperfect hearing and when it is en-
tirely 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, whish is nothing but an in
famed condition of the mucous sur

IS always swung around the head be-
fore making q cast, especially when
the roper is on foot, is erroneous. No
.lan of experience ever makes q cast
IA this fashion from the ground in

sons why he does not. One of them Is
that the movement is likely to brighten

that he may have to wait some min

occurs for making q cast He knows
that better results are obtained by
holding the rope as unobtrusively as
possible, even keeping 1t concealed
from the object of capture.
ION the contrary, however, when
mounted and in pursuit 1t is absolutely
necessary to swing the loop over and
around the head, for the cast must be
made with tho greatest possible force

Pay them for some things they do mot


everything. Let the girls 60 alone to
purchase cloth for an apron or little
fancy work and pay for it. Their
money should be put In the bank no
matter how little and they should do
this too. Allow them to do their
shopping at Christmas, in this way
they will realize how far a quarter will
go.
Sewing-words are not strong
enough to urge the necessity of girls
learning to sew. When II years old
they should be able to make the most
of plain dress for themselves, to
mend neatly when little older, to
keep all their wearing apparel in good
condition. What Is more disgusting
than to see girl pinned together, a
rip here or hook off there.
They should be able to help their
father when he Is tired or sick, or the
hired man taking vacation at milk
ing time.
A college education is grand to
possess, but girl should not under
take 1t without money, time and good
health. 1t is mistake for parents to
sacrifice and deny themselves almost
everything for their daughters to
receive college education. Very
seldom the results prove satisfactory.
Rev. Newell Dwight Hills says, "It is
unreasonable to suppose that no one
but a college graduate can be educated
in the broader meaning of that much
abused word. There are more ways
than one Of obtaining an education In
this world and only narrow minded
peop assert that the university is the
only gateway to a satisfactory life.
Degrees amount to very little, it is
real information which counts"
