Deafness Cannot be Cured

BY local applications, as they cannot reach
the diseased portion Of the ear. There is
only one way to cure deafness, and that Is
caused by an lnflamed condition of the mu-
cous lining Of the Eustachian tube. When
this tube Is inflamed you nave a rumblIng
sound or Imperfect hearing, and when 1t is
entirely closed, deafness Is the result, and
unless the inflammation can be taken out
and this tube restored to its normal con-
dition, hearing will be destroyed forever ;
nine cases out OF 10 are caused by Catarrh,
Which Is nothing but an inflamed condition
OF the mucous surfaces

Many Strange superstltions Of Those

There is a general idea that the
sailor labors under more than the
one pet superstition popular tradition
assigns to each Individual J. D. j.
Kelley, although he declares that
"tars' are no more superstitious than
any of their equals in training and
opportunities, cites in The Ships
Company many of the signs and tolS-
ems in which those who go down to
the sea in ships" put their faith. In
the past superstition was part of
every ship; it entered into its keel,
climbed to its flags, ran at its launch
ing, controlled it's crew and cargo,
evoked portents and governed its ven
lures and arrivals A bit of stolen
wood was always mortised into the
Reel to make a ship sail fast. A sill
yer coin was placed in the mainmast
step to insure lucky ventures. The
mo-ern christening by the wine bottle
arose from the ancient libations pour
ed on the deck by priests. Ship bells
are blessed and to this day if a mis-
take is made in striking one it is i'm
mediately struck backward to break
the spell. The belief in the desertion
of sinking ship by rats is founded
