Deafness Cannot Be Cured

by local applications as they csnnot
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
There is only one way to cure deafness,
aud that is by constitutional remedies.
Deafness is caused by an inflamed con-
dition of the mucous lining of the Eus-
tachian Tube. When this tube is in
famed you have running sound for
imperfect hearing, and when it is en-
tirely closed, Deafness is the result,
and unless the inflamms ton ca2 be ia.

normal condition, hearing will be de.
stroyed forever. Nine cases out of ten
are caused by Catarrh, which is nothing
but an infamed condition of the mu-

ALASKA.

Although Alaska has been in posses
sion of the United States for more than
thirty years, but very little is general
~ known of that region It cost the
United States about IS, 900, 600, and it
is worth billions. Development has
been slow until the past few years, but
the construction of railroads, the great
developers and pioneers of improve
ments and civilization, is having an
almost magic effect on the country.
The winters in Alaska are less severe
than in Montanaand Wyoming. They
have more snow and ice in New Eng
land than IN Alaska. The valley of
Peace River lies nearly 1000 miles
north of the boundary between Alaska
and the Canadian Northwest In this
valley are 100000 acres of good
wheat land, and wheat, oats and bar
ley are raised there in quantities limi-
ted only by the number of farmers
Alaska is rich countrywide in
farming land and minerals, including
gold. In certain sections the cold at
times is intense, but vast area offers
comfortable homes to industrious farm
ers. Last year the value of the Alaska
salmon catch was equal to what the
United States paid for the entire terri
tory

VERY OMNIBUS THE SITUATION

Newspaper dispatches have had Rus
STA and Japan at swords points for
some time. Today war is certain, to-
morrow it Is peace. There is not much
news in dispatches which are mere
opinions. Preparations for war do not
necessarily mean war. When two ma
tions get into quRErel they clean up
their guns IN order to be ready in case
diplomacy fails to avert war. It will
not be surprising if Russia and Japan
go to war. Russia Will not leave Man
churia, and If necessary she will fight
Japan IN order to stay there. It will
not do for Japan to defeat Russia,
That would mean future trouble with
the Monaghan in which this country
would be eventually involved. There
is no sentiment between nations, but
there may be sympathies from various
causes RRssia's plans will not operate
to the injury Of the United States If
war comes this country's interests not
not only of the present but of the far
future lie with the Success of Russia,
the giant of the north. Russia has al
ways been the friend of the United
States. But even if this were not true,
mis- country must prefer to see the

PHYSICAL DETERIORATION AND
SOAP.

The alleged physical deterioration of
the English people is now being attri-
sated to the use .of soap, and even so
Algh medical authority as the Lon
don Lancet is said to admit that there
Is something in this view. The once
Venerated soap is accused of removing
the natural oil provided by nature to
project the body, which is thus ex.
posed to cold, disease germs and
what not.
This Is very interesting theory,
audit will probably be hailed with ioy
by every man who nurses q secret or
open antipathy toward the tub, but it
has Its weak points. Americans and
Germans are not know to be deteriorat
1ngphysically, and yet their acquaintace
with soap and water is more or less in
innate and of long standing. Greeks,
Turks, and Egyptians, on the other
hand, enjoy only a distant acquain-
lance with these agents of civilization.
yet they are far from being celebrated
Tor superior physical development.
Livingston met an African king who
boosted that he had not washed in
thirty years, bat it is not stated that
his physical proportions and strength
were IN any way remarkable. In any
case he does not count, for he went
naked and the rain washed him.
There may be many harmful SOAPS.
and too much soap of any kind may be
harmful, but 1t is likely that more Sc

LEFT HER $4,000
Unexpscted Legacy to Lady Who Richly Z e.
serves Her Good Fortune.
Especial to News and Observer.)

Greensboro, n. c., Sept. 14-Her many
friends in Guilford county were delighted
yesterday to learn that Miss Atlanta l..
Bradfeld, of Oak Ridge. had been left,
by the will of an aunt, Miss Marie Brad
field, of Dallas, Texas, legacy of more
than $75, coo. Miss Atlanta will be pleas
antly remembered by all Oak Ridge
students, where she graduated in the
class of 1899. Afterwards she took a busl-
ness course there, and has been "a
stenographer in Richmond for three
years. She is a niece Of Mr.. Albert
Clark, of Oak Ridge, and her widowed
mother a sister and brother live with
him.
Miss Atlanta deserved this good fortune,
for. although frail in health she com
menced the battle of life with heroic de-
termination. She had only recently pur-
chased home for her mother at OAK
Ridge out of her savings, and her sister
is now at college-through her efforts.
Always modest and retiring, conslderate
of others and kind, she possessed the
pluck and determination of character and
purpose. which make heroes. This for
tune of $4,000, coming so Unexpectedly
to a modest and retiring girl, who was
brave enough to make her own living,
and at the same time provide for loved
ones is something of which any Southern
girl would be proud, yet in Miss Brad
fields case, the prettiest feature, Is that
it came as reward for kindness. when
she had no idea of doing more than fol
lowing the impulses of her own warm
and sunny nature She never saw her
aunt and benefactor on but one occasion.
This was while the latter was visiting N
Richmond, year ago. They became de
voted friends, and when they separated,
the niece had become favorite through
considerate and unselish acts of kindness
and affection of which she was herself
unconscious, following simply the prompt
ings of her nature. The aunt was
wealthy spinster OF Dallas, and dying last
week, bequeathed to the niece her entire
estate.
Miss Bradfeld's father was resident
of Waco, Texas, He was student at
Oak Ridge, and married her mother, Miss
Clark, and on his death many years ago,
in Texas Mrs. Bradfeld with her three
little children, came back to Oak Ridge,
where she has resided ever since.
