Love on the part of the parents
makes this condition of things barely
toIerable, but alas for the unlucky
relatives or friends who venture in
side Il family circle Of this sort! Sell
fishuess in children is usually all OUT
come of parental selfshness and little
regard is paid to the wishes or feelings
of the visitor.
Perhaps the saddest aspect of the
case however, presents itself when
we observe that children, encouraged
to look outside for happiness instead
happy Their life is a series Of disap-
pointments. They are ENJOYABLE and
unconscious of it, They never receive,
outside Of home. the amount of atten-
ton which they have been taught to
believe their due, hence they are al
ways discontented.
The way to grow old gracefully is
to begin very young-to begin i'll child
hood And the great lesson to be
learned is that happiness is within us.
if it exists for us at all No passing
amusement, 10 companionship, no
material possession can permanently
satisfy. We must hoard UP our own
strength; we must make or mar our
own tranquility; and to teach them
this is the preparation for life which
we can give our children--phiiadel-

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 consti-
tutional remedies. Deafness is caused by an
inhamed condition Of tho mucous lining of
the Eustachian Tube. When this tube is in
famed you have rumblingsound or imper-
feet hearing, and when it is entirely closed
Deafness is the result, and unless the inham-
nation can be taken out and this tube re-
stored to it's normal condition, hearing will
be destroyed forever. Nine cases out of ten
are caused by catarrh, which is nothing but an
iniamed condition of the mucous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars for any
case of Deafness Caused by catarrhJ that can
not be cured by Halls Catarrh Cure. Send for

Democratic National Committee.


New York, July 26.-Members of the
democratic national committee held
meeting at the Hoffman House, in this
city, today, for the purpose of SELECTING
chairman and perfecting organization for
the coming campaign. Prior to the SEES
sion the members discussed the chances
for the democracy electing its candidates.
and there was an air of quiet confidence
that was decidedly pleasing to the old
time party men. The discordant elements
which have been prominent at similar
gatherings in the past were conspicuous
by their absence, and one of the southern
members of the committee said: ave
have decided that the time for the lion
to lie down with the lamb has come and
our own personal views are to be sacrificed
to secure party unity" This feeling
was not confined to the delegation from
any one particular section of the coun-
try. but seemed to be unanimous. As a
love feast, today's gathering was asuccess.
The. personality of Judge Parker was a
fruitful theme of conversation among
the committeeman and their friends, and
great interest is taken in the trip which
will be made to EsOpus tomorrow to meet
the candidate. Less than dozen OF
the committee have ever met the judge.
Among those present today were j..
Taylor Ellyson and SenatqrlDaniel, of
Virginia, and VIM. f. Sheehan, who
represents Judge Parker. Committee
man Ryan, of Wisconsin, declared that
despite the claims of the republican lead
ers, his State will this year roll up a
plurality for the democratic ticket.

INDEPENDENT movements in New
York, Boston and Chicago have been
begun by charity workers for the i'm
provement of the condition of the negro
population in those cities. This problem
has been taken up for the coming year
at South End House, Boston, under the
Harvard Fellowship, under John Daniels.
In New York the question will be studied
by the Greenwich House Settlement and
in Chicago by the Frederick Douglas
Centre. Cecilia Parker Wooley, in the
Chicago Commons, says that the need for
such a movement is imperative, as hordes
of dissolute and ignorant negroes are
coming up from the South. If all the
disolute ignorant negroes would go North
the race question would settle itself in
the South and the North could do with
il as it chooses-in the North.

Painters Inaugurate a Strike.

New York, July 26.-rhree thousand
plumbers, tile layers, electrical workers,
plasterers and metal fathers went on
strike in the subway today. The strike
is a sympathetic one, and was caused by
the amalgamated painters society, which
demanded one, half of the painting in the
subway. The painters union, the
society claims, was getting more than
its fair share of the contract. The con-

Elderly Women are His Dupes.

David Seeley, aged ~ years, ana &C.
knowledged to be the champion bigamist
of Michigan, will stand trial in the Cir
cult Court at Kalamazoo, Mich, at its
next term on a plural marriage charge
preferred by Mrs. Julia A. Blanchard,
widow of that city.
The aged deceiver is known in South
ern Michigan under dozen aliases and
has been charged with many petty crimes
and convicted of most of them, and has
served one four-year sentence in the
State Prison for bigamy. Just how
many wives are now outstanding against
Seeley is hard to determine, but seven
are known, and it is believed there are
others. Owing to the obs cure character
of most of them and the small amounts
of money he obtain, they have not at
tracted great attention. Several prefer
to be in oDscurity rather than have theil
matrimonial tangles made public. See.
ley's process appears extremely simple.
When out of funds he seeks a town
where he is not well known, picks up
an acquaintance with some widow or
old maid past the 80 milepost, and push
es matters TO an early conclusion, usual
ly making the visit to the minister or
justice within few weeks at most after
