Deafness Cannot be Cured.

By local applications, as they can
not reach the diseased portion of the
ear. There is only one way to cure
deafness, and that is by constitutional
remedies. Deafness is caused by an
inflamed condition of the mucous lin
ing of the Eustachian Tube. When
this tube is inflamed you have rumbl-
ing sound or imperfect hearing, and
when it is entirely closed, Deafness is
the result, and unless the contamination
can be taken out and this tube restor-
ed to its normal condition, hearing
will be destroyed forever; nine cases
out of ten are caused by Catarrh, which
is nothing but an infamed condition
of the mucous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars
for any case of Deafness caused by
catarrh that cannot be cured by Halls
Catarrh Cure. Send for circulars free.

w. j. Leavitt, our candidate for
Prothonatary, was born in a log
house in Cameron county, the heir
of poverty. At an early age he
realizod the benefits to be derived
from an education; and he worked
on farm, in the woods" in the
coal mines, at any honest work his
hands found to do, until he had
qualified himself to teach others in
country school. Enterprising
and industrious, Mr.. Leavitt, never
sits down and waits for something
to turn up, but gets up in the
morning before breakfast and turns
up what ever comes to hand. AZ
fable and obliging, Mr.. Leavitt,
will make a splendid Prothonatary
George J. LaBar, has never ask
ed for an Office before, but now
having been appointed to fill a
vacancy as Associate Judge, caused
by the death of the late George A.
Walker, he naturally feels d laud-
able desire to serve in that capac-
ity for full term.
Mr.. LaBar' S eminent fitness for
this position has not, and will not
be questioned. One of our solid
business men, self-made man in
every sense of the term, Mr.. LaBar
was one of the boys who "stood
by" in '61 in the days of the Ma
tion's peril, when men turned pale
and talked with bated breath ol
the invasion and probable capture
of Washington.

| The 1875 feet in Shippen Township,
extending from the western line OF
Emporium at the county Bridge over
Driftwood Creek to point on the road
to Beechwood, was constructed by
John McMenamy, of Phila., Pa, the
macadam portion being IA feet wide.
The approximate cost of the road is
about 50, ,9O2 %, of which the state CON
tributes about S292667, the county
about S4S7.7s and the township about
| S4S7.7s.
The section in Emporium Borough,
2, 528 feet in length, 1900 feet of which
| is to be 1S feet wide, 1920 feet to he 16
feet wide and 20S feet to be IA feet wide,
extends from west line of Broad street
to the Borough line of West Fourth
street. The contract for the recon-
struction of this road has been AVA d.
ed to John McNanamy of Phila., Pa.
at an approximate cost of S5,35S.00 of
which the State contributes about
S4. .O18. so, the county about $669.75 and
| the Borough about $66975.
The amount of money available for
road building purposes in Cameron
| county until after Jupe 1st, 1907, is
about S6,01329. The 1907-190S appor-
tionment, amounting to S2,242.24, be-
coming available at this time makes a
total of Ss, 255 50 for use until June 1st,
1908. at which time the 190S-1909 appor-
tionment, amounting to ST. 242.24, will
be placed to the credit of Cameron
county, making total OF S10,4970
available for use until June 1st 1909
The approximate total State share OF
the cost of the above roads amounts to
about Sc, 6,94517, which not only ex-
hausts the entire apportionment to
June 1st, 1907, but consumes almost one
half of the 1907 1908 apportionment.
From the above it VIII be noted that
the balance left of the 19o7-19Os ap-
portionment is not sufficient to pay
| the States share of the cost OF half
mile of road and unless the next Legis-
lature makes substantial Good Roads
appropriation, it will not be possible to
build any more roads in Cameron
county until after June LIST, 1908.

4 Russian Giant.
From the New York World.

Nine feet three inches Of giant with
head, hands and feet to match, will make
his appearance on Hammerstein Victoria
Roof Garden this summer if, at the last
minute he does not get spasm of fright
aud refuse to sail from Cherbourg.
This Golah is Machnow, known in Eu-
rope as the tallest man in the world He
Is Russian peasant and all told there are
800 pounds of him, not 50 very much, con-
silering his great height His hands,
FROM the wrist to the tip of the middle
finger measure ~ inches, and his feet are
constructed in proportion His head takes
a hat big enough for two ordinary men and
his fingers require gloves of great size.
Macbnow once had an offer to come 10
this country and exhibit himself, and he
agreed But just as the boat was about
to sail his timidity overcame him and moth
ing could induce him to board the steamer
This time he signed contract with Oscar
Hammerstein. who believes he viii come at
the appointed time.
Mr. Hammerstein was in Paris signing
Nine. Nellie Melba for his grand opera
company when he heard that the giant was
in good humor, and he thought he might
As well kill two birds with one stone. He
was bit skeptieal as to Maehuow size
until he saw the giant at the London Hip
podrome, whittier he went once he had the
Melba contract in his pocket Then all
doubt took wing.
The giant is married to woman of
ordinary size and is very happy with his
wife, who has to stand on chair to kiss
him. He is in fine health and has a hearty
appetite For breakfast he devours =
quarts of milk or tea, 6 boiled eggs, or
loaveS of bread and p pounds of butter.
For luncheon he has p pounds of meat,
) pounds of potatoes and quart of beer.
Dinner is more elaborate, this being his
menu on most days: 4 basin of soup, D
pounds of meat, pounds Of vegetables, 3
pounds of bread, and quart or two of
beer. His 100 clock snack consists of 0
eggs, several loayes of bread and quart
of Tea

Lending Money.
From the Healthy Home.

The rock on which many financial bark
has been wrecked has been some form OF
lending, or endorsement. which amounts to
the same thing. \ friend asks the head
Of the household fer the use Of his name
on note. 1t seems simple request
The friend is honest and sure to take care
of the obligation. But misfortune comes,
the unexpected happens, the note has To
be paid, the endorser is held Scores and
hundreds of eases of this kind are happen
ing all the time
Do not lend money that you cannot af-
ford to lose Do not endorse for friend
as a matter of accommodation unless you
can stand without suffering the loss which
must ensue if the payment Is not made as
expected. OF course in the case of busi
ness men who are constantly endorsing
notes for each other and do so in the way
of business, these remarks do not apply
although our whole commercial and fnan
cial structure would be more satisfactory
and more stable ii commercial operations
were not conducted in so large degree on
credit.
There is no excuse for man to imperil
the comfort of his family simply as an ac-
commodation for friend. But of course
he must not himself ask such favors if he
does not intend to grant them. The safe
way under all ordinary circumstances is to
pay as you 90. If you cannot pay, don t
90,

The Other One.
From Harner,s Meekly.

4 story is told of police magistrate III
Cincinnati who, having an extraordinary
amount of business one morning, was dis
posing of his cases at the rate of some two
or three a minute, with great exactness
and dignity, being, as is usual in police
courts, judge, jury and lawyer all in one.
To one rather refractory witness his
Honor said, II am to understand that you
readily recognize this handkerchief as the
one taken from you p
Eyes, Your Honor. -
GLOW do you know it is yours?' pc
remptorily demanded his Honor.
II recognize it at once because of its
peculiar design.
"You must be aware, sir, declared
the magistrate, oracularly, az he drew a
similar handkerchief from his own pocket,
s'that there are others like it.
'''True enough, was the unexpected
reply. II had two stolenI'
