that unless the strike Is declared OF
at the meeting to be held Sunday there
will be break among the men as sure,
as day and that will be the last of the
union, practically.
1t is evident that crisis is at hand,
situation which may effect the life OF
the union. 1t is the hope of every troll
ley worker, and, naturally every union
man in the city that the union shall be
saved at all hazards. If, however, the
threatened break takes place and the
strike is not declared off the union is
doomed. Those who break away will
be expelled, but they cshaIl still re-
main trolley workers, while those who
remain may continue the union, but
will be trolley men in "Reminiscences
only. The conditions that enveIoped
the finale of the strike in Bridgeport
are lowering around the situation here.
Everybody seems confident that the
end will come Sunday. 1t would be
fitting day for such climax, for the
strike shall be exactly seven months
old that day.
Waterbury evening Democrat., 1903-08-07

The strikers executive committee is
sued the following statement this az
ternoon:
This, the 209th day of our strike,
finds the strike still on with the screws
turned hard. Despite this fact the pa
pers are teeming with rulnors Of this
and that. They seem to think the opin-
ion Of some fellow who has scoId feet
expresses the opinion of our entire or
ganization. This Is not SO. This strike
was declared legally, and when 1T is de-
clared off it must be legally declared
off, Five, ten or fifteen weak-kneed
men would cut no ice in this matter
The strike will be on until two-thirds
of our members declare it off. This
ought to convince everybody that there
is nothing in the hot air talk now being
published broadcast. 1t is simply an-s
other attempt of those interested in the
company to work up sentiment IN
that direction.
"a new feature in this strike which
is liable to develop Is this. AT the pres
ent time the relations between the firm
old liners of our organization and the
men now working as rfke-breakers
have become closer than heretofore.
Some of those strike-breakers have
shown the right dispositions toward
our deserters and we are told by some
that should any quantity Of our men
desert the cause and go back on the
ca-~ these strike-breakers would throw
mp their Jobs and rely upon us to take
them into our ranks. This certainly IS
the most novel feature we have vet
ran across since the strike began. BY
the way, we wonder why some men are
willing to give up $3.50 per day Jobs
to take So job on the trolley cars?
Every smember who went out on
strike on January nth will be given
due notification Of Sundays meeting.
Every man will be asked to give his
opinion on the last 'proposition,' and
the majority will rule. When the vote
Is over the public will know whether
the strike is over or whether it will go
on still further. This meeting will be
an interesting one and there ought to
be plenty Of enthusiasm, too"

Deafness Cannot be Cured

reach the diseased portion IT the esr.
There is only n way to cnte deaf
ness, and that is by constitutional
remedies. Deafness is caused by an
lnlamed condition of the mucous LIKING
of the eustachian tube. When this
tube is inflamed 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
destroyed forever; nine cases out of ten
are caused by catarrh, which is nothing

a number Of remedies which al WY
efficient in the treatment of the disease.
Probably the most &C 'nomicai dip,
and n that Is uniform and rel nile in
It's results, is what is known ~ the
lime and sulphur dip. Lime an sui
phur are dissolved in water in off rent
proportions but the following formula
is probably the best:
Flower Of sulphur 81 lbs.
Unslaked lime l6A lbs.
Water 100 gal.
Carefully weigh out the lime and the
sulphur and do not guess at the weight
of either. Use exactly 81 lbs. of sui
phur and l6A ponds of lime for each
100 gal. of dip needed. Stake the lime
in a large kettle and add enough water
to make a paste. Sift the sulphur in
this paste and mix thoroughly. Add
% or so gallons of water and boil the
mixture for two hours Allow it to
cool and settle over night and draw off
the liquid being careful not TO STIR up
the settings. To the liquid drawn off
add enough of water to make 100 gal
Ions.
Any dip used is most efficient at a
temperature of 105 to 115 degrees
Farenheit.
Any OF the above remedies should be
applied by running the diseased and ex-
posed cattle through a vat we'll filled
with the dip. The animal should be n
the dip for two minutes If possible and
after being dipped the cattle should be
moved forthwith to premise that are
free from infection. From The Veter-

In 1854 Father John, as he was
fondly known to his people, was at
tackled with a serious cold which, de-
veloping into a stubborn cough and
affection of the lungs, caused the
greatest alarm for the health of the
beloved clergyman.
Medical skill seemed unable to stay
the progress Of the disease. Finally
an eminent specialist was consulted,
who gave Father John a prescription
to cure the cold and remove the lung
trouble. as well as to build up and
strengthen the body. The clergyman
took the prescription to the old drug
store Of Carleton & Hovey, Lowell,
Mass, the firm by whom Father
Johns Medicine is prepared. The
cough soon disappeared. and his peo-
Pile rejoiced when he declared that he
had been made as we'll and strong as
ever.
Father John recommended the med
icine to his parishioners and friends,
and thousands were made we'll and
strong by taking 1t. In getting this
prescription they always called for
Father Johns Medicine" and so 1t
was named by the people. and adver-

ton Of Reverend Father O'Brien. be-
cause he knew of its merit and de-
