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
intlamed condition of the mucous Using
of the eustachian tube. When this
tube is intiamed 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

Only a Mask.

Many are not being benefited by the
summer vacations as they should be.
Nov, Notwithstanding much outdoor
life, they are little if any stronger than
they were. The tan on their faces is
darker and makes them look healthier,
but it is only a mask, They are still
nervous, easily tired, upset by trifes,
and they do not eat or sleep well.
What they need is what tones the
nerves, perfects digestion, creates
appetite, and makes sleep refreshing,
AID that is Hoods Sarsapanlla. Pupils
and teachers generally Will find the
chief purpose of the vacation best
subserved by this great medicine

An AnnecdOte Of casslus Clay.


The Kentucky Gazette tells the fol.
lowing story of the late Cassius M,
Clay:
"A man was once beng tried for
murder, and his case looked hopeless
indeed. He had, without any seeming
provocation, murdered one of his
neighbors IN cold blood. Not 3 lawyer
In the county would touch the case.
The man, as a last extremity, appealed
to Gen. Clay. Everyone thought that
Clay would certainly refuse, To the
great surprize of ali, he accepted
Clay slowly carried on the case, and
it looked mole and more hopeless. The
only ground of defense the prisoner
had was that the murdered mar had
looked at HIM WITH such a fierce muir
derous look that out of self-defense be
had struck first. A ripple passed
through the jury at this evidence.
The time came for Clay to make his
defense, 1t was settled in the minds
of the spectators that the man was
guilty of murder in the first degree.
Clay calmly proceeded, and laid all the
proof before them in a mastery way.
Then just as he was about to conclude,
he played bis last aud master card.
"Gentleman of the jury" he SAID,
assuming the %fercest, blacklist look,
and carrying the most undying hatred
in IL aver seen, "gentleman, if a man
should look al you like this, what
would you dom
That was all he said, but that was
enough. The jury was startled, and some
even quailed in their seats. The Judge
moved uneasily on his bench. After
about fifteen minutes the jury filed
slowly back with a Not guilty, your
honor The victory was complete. ."
This story may be readily believed.
The editor of this paper once saw just
such a look on his face. He was then
an old man-seventy-hve-and was
making a political speech. A half
drunken scalawsg in the audience
bswled out two or three times, "Woli
in camp, wolf IN camp" 1t did not
seem to fully arrest the old Generals
attention at first, but he finally located
the man and caught what he said.
His neck seemed to swell and his face
to urn black, while his eyes CLEANED
with the steady iendish light of a wild
beasts. The silence for a minute was
oppressive and the suspense %sickenlDg.
Finally General Clay said in firm
tones, "If you squeak again you will
no. get out OF here alive" aud went on
with his speech. The mar did not
~"squeak." Nobody did.

A good many people who cannot be
accused Of boodliug, nevertheless are
sticking their hands down in the pock-
cts of the people just at this time.
Nearly every man who is high enough
up on the pay rolls of the government
seems to be seized with an insane
desire to get out on a junketIng trip
this summer at the expense of the
people. The secretary Of the navy,
not long ago, took out a big bunch of
congressman and took a whiz around
the West Indies on s govern ment
vessel and the people paid the bill.
The presidents family then took his
''priyate yacht" which is a govern
ment vessel, and proceeded to their
summer home at Oyster Bay, The
vessel is ALWAYS ready for use for
pleasure parties for the Roosevelt
children, gong to boat races or taking
Miss Alice 10 the city when she feels
that she needs a paper of pins. Not
long ago the members Of congress who
were on the naval affairs committee in
the last house, took a government
vessel and started out on a junket with
the ostensible purpose of inspecting the
different Notifications along the coast
of the country, and the naval needs of
the country, What right these mem.
bers have to make the people pay for
any such trip is more than any man
can tell. There Is no official naval
committe in existence, so far as the
house of representatives is concerned
How do these men know they will be
placed on the committee on naval
affairs when the next house is organ
lied? They do not know It, aud vet
they are %squandering the peoples
money Tor the 0Stenslole purpose OF
posting themselves on the needs of the
people in the way of naval expenditures.
The chances are they will see more
''high balls" than they will cannon
balls, and more "kings'' and "~queens'
than they will naval necessities. Post.
master General Payne. who has been
made ''siek,n presumably by smelling
the stencil in his department, is the
latest TO take q government vessel, and
with his family get out on the deep
blue sea where he can smell the per.
fume of the brine instead Of Official
corruption. And the people pay the
bill. Well, why shouldn't they. They
are responsible for the millions aceu-
INFLATED in The treasury. They voted
a tariff on themselves tba, would pile
up a surplus OF cash in the treasury,
and this is the only way to get it back
INTO The channels Of trade, anless they
take a notion to quit taxing themselves

LETTER FROM WASHINGTON.
Washington, d. O., July 27, lOs

Washington, d. c., July q, 'O3.
The diplomatic mix.up OF the reprb.
lican administration on the Russian
and Manchurian question is causing a
good deal Of hilarity here among the
democrats and some uneasy wonder
ment among republicans as to the final
outcome. It is known here that the
remarkable statement lately gwen out
by Assistant Secretary Of State LOOMS,
during the absence of Secretary Hay,
to the effect that the Kisheneff affair
and the Msnchurian question concern
ing the open door policy were inter-
twlned and interdependent, and must,
therefore, be considered together, was
inspired by no less a parsonage than
President Roosevelt himself. When
Secretary Hay hurried to Oyster Bay
and informed the president that be had
''played the dickens in giving LOOMS
any such Instructions, the president
quickly aside stepped and left poor
Loomis with the bag to hold. Toe
verest tyro in diplomacy would have
k lwn that the two questions had no
more to do with each other than the
Alaskan boundry dispute has to do
with The Breathitt county feuds, and
Assistant Secretary LOOMS probably
knew 1t when he was promulgating the
remarkable statement that went out 10
the country, but he was obeying the
instructions of his chief who was simply
trying to play some politics and got his
''gee'' leg over the "haW" traces.
Secretary Hays recent statement to
the effect that be had obtained Rpssia's
consent to the open door in several
important ports in Manchurla has still
further complicated matters. He made
the unqualified statement that he had
things s'6xed. Now, Count Csssini,
the Russian ambassador to this country,
comes out in a statement and says il
isn't so, and that Secretary Hay sand
nothing to him about the matter, and
there you are.
