The YEARBOOK
For Deaf People
By George III. Wilson

Wouldn't you want that man to tell
you just how he got back his full Hear
ing after twenty years of Deafness?
Wouldn't you want to know some of
the things he found out about the Ear,
and about Deafness, in fifteen years
study of both. and of his own case?
Well,-that is just what George H.
Wilson of Louisville, Ky, tells in his 200
page Ear Book"
Mr.. Wilson is almost as well known
in Louisville as Marshall Field is in
Chicago, or John Wanamaker in Phila-
delphia.
And, he was, for twenty years, almost
the Deafest man in his native city.
Any one of the thousands who know
him today will certify that his Hearing
is now as sharp as their own.
Few men have studied the Ear so
earnestly, and thoroughly, as Mr.. Wilson
had to do. for his own sake.
What he positively knows about
Deafness is personal and practical.
1t is not mere book knowledge, but
the actual facts tested out by his own
hard experience.
1.-THE Wilson Ear Book therefore
should be read by every man or woman,
who has Ear trouble,-who is Deaf, or
threatened with Deafness.
This Ear Book" will be sent Free to
any Doctor, or other person, who will
clip out this advertisement and send us,
with it, the name and address of one
Deaf person in his locality. Address

CUPPOSE you knew a man who had
been Deaf for twenty years?
~ Suppose you met him today,
and found he could hear every
whisper you spoke to him?
Suppose you enquired about him,
and found that he was one of the most
reliable, and responsible, citiz N of
Louisville, whose word could be abso-
lutely trusted.

they beat back their swarning enemies.
| But crossbow darts pelted and thudded
among their ranks till third of their
number were stretched upon the planks.
Lined across the deck they could hardly
keep an unbroIen front to the leaping,
surging crowd who pressed upon them.
| Another rush, or another after that,
must assuredly break them, for these
dark men of Spain, hardened by an
endless struggle with the Moors, were
fierce and stubborn fighters.
But bark to this sudden roar upon the
farther side of theml Saint George!
Saint George! a Knolles to the rescue!
A small craft had run alongside and
sixty men had swarmed on the deck of
| fires, the Spaniards wavered and broke.
The fight became a massacre. Down
from the poop sprang the Princes men.
| Up from the waist rushed the newcomers.
There were five dreadful minutes of blows
and screams and prayers, with struggling
figures clinging to the bulwarks and sullen
splashes into the water below. Then it was
over, and a crowd of weary, overstrained
men leaned painting upon their weapons,
or lay GREATNESS and exhausted upon the
deck of the captured carrack.
The Prince had pulled up his vizor
and lowered his beaver. He smiled
proudly as he gazed around him and
wiped his streaming face. Where is
the shipman?" he asked Let him
lead us against another ship"
NAY, sire, the shipman and all his
men have sunk in the Lion, said Thomas
de Mohun, young knight of the West
Country, who carried the standard. We
have lost our ship and the half Of our fol-
| lowing. I fear that we can fight no more"
1T matters the less, since the day is
already ours" said the Prince, looking
over the sea. Ny noble fathers royal
banner flies upon yonder Spaniard.
Mowbray, Audley, Suffolk Beauchamp,
Namur, Tracey, Stafford, Arundel, each
| has his flag over a scarlet carrack, even
as mine floats over this. See, yonder
squadron is already far beyond our reach.
But surely we owe thanks to you who
came at so perilous a moment to our aid.
Your face l have seen, and your coat
armor also, young sir, though cannot lay
my tongue to your name. Let me know,
that l may thank you" He had turned
to Nigel, who stood flushed and joyous at
the head of the boarders from the Basi1isk
Il am but a Squire, sire, and can claim
no thanks, for there is nothing that l
have done. Here is Our leader"
The Princes eyes fell upon the shield
charged with the black raven and the
stern young face of him who bore it. Sir
Robert Knolles," said he, l had thought
you were on your way to Brittany"
Il was so, sire, when l had the fortune
to see this battle as l passed"
The Prince laughed. " 1t would in
deed be to ask too much, Robert, that
you should keep on your course when
much honor was to be gathered so close
to you. But now pray you that you will
come back with us to Winchelsea, for well
l know that my father would fain thank
you for what you have done this day"
| But Robert Knolles shook his head.
Il have your fathers command, sire,
and without his order l may not go
against it. Our people are hard pressed

the railways, and his work and the
work of his fellow editors and publish

At present the only compensation the
publishers of these papers receive for

privilege of exchanging advertising

What will happen if this privilege is

Advertising and Mileage.

exchange advertising for mileage?
The commission has expressed the
opinion that the common practice of ex-
changing advertising for mileage is con
trary to the provisions of the new law
The point is to be tested in formal
way so that it may be cleared up at the
earliest possible moment. The Monon

Shore and the New York Central is
bringing the question before the com
mission for adjudication
This is question of Importance. 1t

An FRA of World Vide Expansion.

In studying the progress of the coun-
try in agriculture, in railroads, and in
manufactures, and attempting to fore
cast something of what is ahead of us
in the continued expansion of these in
dustries, it must be born in mind that
not alone is the United States, but the
world, is hungry for iron and steel and
copper and cotton, and all other great
products which enter into modern civil
ization We have entered period of
worldwide expansion in industry, in COM
merce, in the construction of railroads,
steam and electric, and in municipal im-
provements such as the most enthusiast
tic optimst could scarcely have conciev-
ed of five or ten years ago. We Justly
boast of the progress already made by
the United States, but considering the
future and in attempting to measure its
almost hmitless potentlalities as com
pared with the past we must remember
that much Of Europe is almost as busy
as America, that Mexico and South
America and Canada are running rivalry
with us in the expansion of industry

the worlds population, is opening up to
Western civilization and the uses of iron

mans consumptive requirements, so
there is an increased scarcity in the
supply of men to do the worlds work
The laborer no longer tramps the streets
searching for employment at starvation
wages, as a million or more did ten
years ago. The employer is everywhere

The total output of all grades of zinc
ores from the Wisconsin district for the
year 1907, will hardly exceed 40, 600 ton,
which, in view of the increased output
does not seem so very high, but it must
be taken into consideration that while
the output has been heavier than for
1905, a great loss has been made posi-

this loss, but on the other hand respon-
