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 REM
edies. Deafness is caused by an In
famed condition of the. mucous lin
ing of the Eustachian Tube. When
tins tube is inflamed you have a rumn-
ling sound or imperfect hearing, and
when it is entirely closed, deafness Is
the result. and unless the inflamma-
ton can be taken out and this tube
restored to it's normal condition, hear
inp will be destroyed forever; nine
cases out of ten they are caused by
catarrh, which is nothing but an In
famed condition of the mucous sur

THE BAD TEETH OF
THE BRITISH NATION.

Mrs. John Lane. an Englishwoman,
writing concerning the neglected teeth
of the average Briton. gives her fellow
countrymen such dressing down" as
no foreigner would dare do. She asks:
Why are the English. admittedly the
apostles Of the tub. 30 Indifferent, al
rule. to the condition Of the teeth? Why
do so many people think SO much more
OF the cleanliness Of the outside of the
mouth than Of the inside? Prehistoric
remains, contends Mrs. Lane, prove
that GENERALIZATION is responsible for
the deterioration Of English teeth. and
she traces much Of the intelligence Of
America to the ceaseless energy Of the
dentist and the devotion Of the people
to his chair. Mrs. Lane nays:

is no emotion in the world, except the
