Deafness Cannot Be Cured

by local applications as they cannot reach the diseased portion of the ear. There is only one way o cure dealness, and that is by constitu- tional remedies. Deafness is caused by an in- famed condition of the mucous lining ct the Eustachian Tube. When this tube is intarned ing, and when it is entirely closed, Deafness is the result, and unless the inflammation can be te zen out and this tube re .tored to it's normal liu cases out of ten are caused by Cetarrh, rbich is nothing but an intiamed condition of ne'mucous surfaces.
 We will give One Hundred Dollars for any 'ase of Deafness (caused by catsrrh) that can- .ot te cured by Halls Catsrrh Cure. Send for ;rcuiars, free.

 Prosaic of Employ ments.
 While the object of dishwashing is the same, of methods there are many, as each housekeeper ts sure to con- slider some portion of the process of vital importance. One woman will exhaust all her ambition on a clean dishcloth, another upon large amount of dishwater, with a small amount of rinsing water. Some use hot water and no soap, believing soap not suffi- ciently clean for dishwashing. Others use warm suds and hot rinsing water. Some wipe dishes immediately from the rinsing water, while others give dishes a chance to wipe themselves by draining. Every good housekeeper is liable to have a bad point along with many good points on the dishwashing subject.
 To consider dishwashing with a lit. tie knowledge of the constituents of food would prevent the use of boiling or even hot water in removing food from dishes, as nearly all food as pre- pared for the table contains albumen or starch. alone or together, combined naturally as with all the cereals, or combined by cookery and serving; and every cook knows what happens when heat Is applied to milk, eggs and flour Boiling water causes particles of food to adhere to silver and crockery, and in time will cause even the best quality of earthenware to check, as nothing short of china is equal to great heat As soap can be removed from woven material and from the flesh, from towels and from the hands-although both will absorb, it stands to reason that soapsuds can be rinsed from silver and crockery. Soap is modified alkall alkali with sufficient fat 10 hold the alkali in safe and convenient rorn for use. Hot water dissolves grease holds 1t out of sight, but in no way destroys or changes its nature. It is safe to assume that all good house keepers recognize the necessity oi clean dishclothes and w.ping towels and plenty of washing and rinsinl water. but it is a fact that many other wise neat and thoughtful are slack ir the care of the tea and the coffee pot letting the contents stand therein be tween meals.

Conquest j ... Great American Desert
ESSsssd

Were all of arid America At for the living 1t could be occupied by third of the entire population of the United States. Go into the foothills of Colo rado and Nevada. There the sage brush springs from the sand IS 1t does on the sun baked mesas of Arizona and New Mexico away to the south. The statisuclan estima tes that even In Kan sas, Nebraska and the Dakotas fully scanty herbage-just enough to keep range cattle alive few weeks during the grazing season-yet these states are net considered a part of the des- ert
 Already a modern miracle has been wrought. The one who has not visited the oasis created by irrigation may scout this assertion. but should he chance into the valley through which the Rio Pecos flows, or in Colorado along the Poudre river, the landscape of field, orchard and garden which na- ture has created in a literal wilder ness will convince him beyond the shadow of doubt. In the southwest fruits and grains both of the tropic and temperate zones are to be seen growing in luxuriance where yester- day only greasewood, sagebrush and cactus existed.
 Yet the soil Is unchanged. save for the application of water. It Is that of the without moisture, al- most incapable of supporting life. When moistened. however, these par ticles of sand, even alkall rock, con tain properties so fertile that from them springs vegetation more abun- dant and luxuriant than the crops that are gathered from the rich loam of In diana and Illinois and the fertile val leys of New York itself.
 Though less than 10 per cent of the available area for irrigation has thus far been reached, in Colorado itself no less than 75 per cent of the lands available for cultivation depends upon the artificial water supply. These farms aggregate 750,OOO acres. The South Platte valley, the most exten- sively irrigated region in the United States, including portions of Colorado, Wyoming and Nebraska. has 100000 acres which are artlhcially watered. Farms in Utah thus supplied aggregate 100000 acres; Arizona contains 100000 acres, New Mexico 150,OO0 acres, Ne braska 100000, while some of the most
 f~I send their fruit and vegetables by the carload to all parts of the United States, as well as the principal cities of Europe, are nurtured entirely by wells and canals. Yet the average size of an irrigated farm is not over 40 acres, which gives an idea of the mill lions of people who to-day depend upon these great water works for their livelihood.
