Deafness Cannot Be Cured

by local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
There is only way to cure deafness,
and that is caused by an infiamed
condition of the mucous lining of the
Eustachian Tube. When this tube is
intlamed you have a rumbling sound
or imperfect hearing, and when it is
entirely closed, Deafness is the result,
and unless the inflammation can be
taken out n this tube restored to its
normal condition, hearing will be de-
stroyed for ever; nine cases out of ten
are caused by Catarrh, which is moth
ing but an infamed condition of the
mucous surfaces.

f~lAPTAIN DOMINIQUE AHA
RADIO stood alone on the plaza
ia Of the ancient castle which for
~ over a century had been the
home Of the governors Of La Guayra.
He was gazing listlessly down over the
parapet which bordered the bare sheer
precipice towering above tie seaport
town. There was nothing in his eyes,
but a great deal in his heavy heart.
Captain Alvarado, who filed the hon
orable station Of c~omandante OF the
port, was a soldier Of proved courage.
The protege and favorite officer Of his
| serene highness the Count Alyaro de
Lara, grandee OF Spain and viceroy OF
Venezuela, he had been honored with
great responsibilities, which he had dis
charged to the satisfaction Of his mas
ter. From a military point of view the
Office Of governor, of La Guayra, which
he then filed, was of sufficient impor-
lance to entitle him to high position
and much consideration in the vice re-
gal court Of Caracas.
Of unknown p%arentage, Alvarado had
been received into the family Of the
viceroy when an infant. He had been
carefully reared, almost as he had been
Dc Lara's son, and had been given
abundant opportunity to distinguish
himself. In the course Of his short life
he he'd managed to amass a modest
fortune by honorable means He was

a sojourn of several years in Europe,
not only at the court Of Madrid, but
also at that of Versailles, where the
Count de Lara had been sent as am
bassador to the grand monarch during
a period in which, for the sake Of su-
pervising the education Of his only
daughter, he,had temporarily absented
himself from his beloved Venezuela.
That an unknown man should have
been given such opportunities, should
have been treated with so much con-
sideration, was sufficient commentary
on the unprecedented kindness Of heart
Of the old hidalgo who represented the
failing power Of his most catholic
majesty Of Spain, Carlos H., the Be
witched, in the new world. Whatever

brought up as a Spanish soldier and
gentleman. and the old count was open

Nor was his present sadness due to
unreouited passion. for he was confl-
dent that the alteration OF his heart
was met with an adequate response
from it's object. Indeed, it was no
secret TO him that Mercedes loved him
with a devotion which matched his
own. 1t was not that. but her father
had announced his intention to be-
troth the girl to Don Felipe de Tobar
Y Bobadilla, a young gentleman OF
ancient lineage and vast wealth, who

In a few moments the great ship, her
yards braced sharply up, was headed
out to seaward on the starboard tack.
The wind was now blowing a whole
gale, and the masts of the ship We're
bending like whips.
We'll have to get sail off her, I'm
thinking. Hornigold," said Morgan.
AYE, aye, sir, and quick"
"Aloft,' yelled Morgan, land take In

The shaking shrouds were Dol Gov
cred with masses of men, and as the
ship was exceedingly well handled the
canvas was promptly snugged down by
tie eager crew. Hornigold, with young
Teach to assist him. went to the helm.
Morgan gave his personal attention to
the maneuvering Of the ship, and the
other officers stationed themselves
where they could best promote and dl-
rect the efforts Of the seaInen.
thus during the loag morning they
enGeavored to claw OF the lee shore.
Morgan lufed the ship through the
heavy squalls which rose TO the Yio-
lence Of a hurricane With consummate
skill. Absolutely fearless, a master Of
his profession, he did all With that
ship that mortal man could have done.
yet their situation became more and
more precarious. They had long since
passed La Guayra. They had had a
feeting glimpse Of the shipping in the
harbor driving helplessly on shore as
they dashed by under the gray clouds
which had overspread the sea. That
town was now hidden from them by a
bend Of the coast, and they found
Themselves in a curious blight Of land,
extending far into the ocean in front
Of them. The mountains here did not
so nearly approach the water line. and
from the look Of the place there ap-
peared to be a shoal projecting some
distance into the cea from the point
ahead. Some of the buccaneers who
knew these waters confirmed the indi-
cations by asserting the existence of
the shoal.
In spite of all that Morgan could do
it was quite evident that they could
not weather the shoal IN their present
tack. There was not sea room to wear
and bear up on the other tack. The

famed by the dark, passionate beauty
Of the Spanish maiden. It was only
by a severe restraint enjoined upon
himself by his position that he had re-
trained from abusing the hospitality
he extended by Selling her in the old
buccaneer fashion. The impression she
had made upon him had been lasting.
and when he found himself alone, an
outlaw, all his dreams Of the future
eentered about this woman
He would carry out the plans which
he had outlined to his men, but the
Pearl Of Caracas, for SO Donna Mer-
cedes was called, must accompany him
to the south seas to be the island queen
sof that buecaneer empire of which he
was to be the founder. That Donna
Mercedes might object to this PROPOSE
ton, that she might love another man,
might even be married by this time,
counted for nothing in Morgan's plans.
He had taken what he wanted by dint
Of his iron will and the strength of his
right arm in the past, and he should
continue the process in the future.
Consequently he was most reluctant
that morning, for his passion had in
creased with each o'errun league Of
sea, to bear away from La Guayra,
which was the port Of entry for Cara
cas-. But even his ardent spirit was at
last convinced Of the necessity. It was
blowing a gale now, and they were
so near the shore, although some dis
lance to the eastward Of the town, that
they could see the surf breaking with
tremendous force upon the strip Of
sand. The officers and older men had
observed the course Of the ship with
growing concern, but no had ven
tured to demonstrate with Morgan I'M

character finally summoned his courage
and approached him.

facts Of life especially with nus

amount of insight and intuitive per-

nothing surprises one more than the

who blithely embarked upon life

one universal truth which women are
far too apt to forget or ignore Cat any
