Deafncss Cannot be Cured

by local applications, as they cannot reach
the diseased portion of the ear. There Ia
only one way to cure deafness, aud that is
by constitutions remedies. Deafness is
caused by an nfamed condition of the mu-
cous lining of the Eustachian Tube. When
this tube is inIaIned you have 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 condi-
ton, hearing will be destroyed forever;
nine cases out OF ten are caused by Ca
tarrh. which is nothing but an inflamed con-
dttion Of the mucous surfaces.

STRUCK BY LIGHTNING
Electricity Plays Queer Tricks at
Eastport

The severe electrical storm that pass
ed over Annapolis and Anne Arundel
county yesterday afternoon between ;
and O'Clock struck the house Of
SIR. James T.. Beacbum, on Bay
Ridge road at Eastport.
Mr.. Beacbum called at the Capital
Office this morning and graphically
described the unusual experience and
the narrow escape Of himself and fam
ily. He said when that loudest peal
Of thunder came like the explosion
Of large cannon, II was accompa-
MED by vivid fash Of lightning
that played queer tricks about his
house and stunned bis Wits and chill
dren and the barnyard animals.
Some few months ago Mr.. Beach
nm had a telephone In his house.
The telephone has recently been dis
connected, the iDstrufDent removed,
but tile wires are still attached to the
frame work OF the house. The cleo
tricity passed along the telephone
wires and thence down 20 the lower
floor. The lightning took a ziQzag path
across the floor OF the living room.
There was al open CRATE Gre and the
heat.seemed 70 attract the current Of
electricity toward the open fireplace,
where the ball.of FIRE burst, followed
the air current and passed out the
chimney.
Mrs. Beaclum, who was occupied
at household duties in the room, was
considerably shocked and stunned. as
were several Of the children. The
barnyard fow and some pigs that had
taken shelter from the storm under
the bouse were stunned by the light
ming. Tho family consider they made
a very narrow escape.
