Good Time to Circulate.
Deafness Cannot Be Cured

By local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear
There is only one way to cure deaf
ness, and that is by constitutional rem
edies. Deafness is caused by an in
famed condition of the mucou lining
of the eustachian tube. When this
tube is inflamed you have a rumbling
sound or imperfect hearing, and when
it is entirely closed, deafness is the
result, and unless the Inflammation
car be taken out and this tube restor
ed to it's normal condition, hearing will
be destroyed forever; nine cases out
of ten are caused by catarrh, which is
nothing but an in1amed 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

UNITED STATES LABOR COMMITS

TO SAN FRANCISCO.
justment Of Differences Between
Telegraph Operators and Com
panies in That City-vice Presi-
dent Honenkamp Discusses Matter

Labor Commissioner Neill, en- route
from Washington to San Francisco,
to lend his influence in the settlement
of the telegraphers' strike at San
Francisco, which has been going on
for some time, passed through the city
yesterday afternoon. On the train was
the executive committee of the tele-
graphers' union, consisting of S. ].
Konenkamp of New York, deputy pres
ident of the order of t~elegraphers;
Mr.. ]. Reidy of Boston and ]. M. Sui
livan of New York.
Spokesman for Committee.
Vice President Konenkamp, who act
ed as spokesman Of the committee,
said: I'VE are going to San Francisco
with the labor commissioner to meet
President Small of the t~elegraphers'
union. 1t is Jul understanding that
the Western Union and Postal Tele-
graph companies are authorized to
meet Commissioner Neill and the ex-
ecutive committee of the Commercial
T~elegraphers' union.
Hope to Make Settlement.
What the result will be, of course,
be able to make a settlement of the
San Francisco strike, satisfactory to
all parties concerned. Commissioner
Neill's dealings with the union thus
far have been entirely satisfactory to
the members of the executive commit
tee, and he has taken a neutral posi-,
ton throughout the controversy, but
we have no reason to complain"
Matter of Strike Spreading.
When asked if he thought the strike
would spread in case a settlement was
not reached at San Francisco, he said
THAT is a matter l am not prepared
to discuss at this time. There is gen
eral unrest among the telegraphers OF
all cities we have visited, particularly
SO in Chicago, where the union is bet
ter organized than in any other large
city in the country. At a meeting held
last Sunday we had a hard time stop
ping them from voting to strike al
that time"
Commissioner Silent.
Commissioner Neill said his lips
we're sealed on the present situation,
oe ha did not consider n poOd nOlicy
to discuss the real conditions, which
he said he thought could be fixed up
as soon as an arbitration was had. He
said that most difficulties would not &c
as far as they ordinarily do If the con.
~testants would Stop a moment and
consider the rights of others or would

The Look of q Child.

"The look of a little child Is some
times a wonderful thing" said q mai
who had risen high on the ladder OF
success. II remember that the great
est lesson I have ever learned In my
life was pointed out to M by my
daughter, who was only five years
old at the time. That was fifteen
years ago, when I had just attained
some measure of success in the busi-
ness world, and I felt I could afford
to rest on my oars awhile.
Il had never been a drinking man;
but frequent conference at hotel lob
bies and after the theatre, or talks
with my associates began to tell on
me, and l am ashamed to confess that
I came home many q night slightly
the worse for wear and liquor. The
habit grew on me, in spite OF fearful
~entreaties from MY wife. took a
bottle of whisky home one afternoon.
After dinner I made for that bottle,
which I had left in my study, poured
out a glass and raised it to my lips
when I caught a reflection in the
polished woodwork of the wall. l
turned quickly and there was my
little daughter standing in the door
way looking at me.
II could never describe the express
sion on her face. If n might say
it of a child, it was a commingling of
%reproach, pity and disgust. Probably
she had overheard conversations be-
tween her mother and myself; per-
haps the mother had instilled that
feeling; perhaps it was instinct. I
have not taken another drink from
that day to this. "-New Orleans

Planting Daffodils Indoors.

The spring Towering bulbs are so
easy of cultivation, so interesting to
handle, require 50 little window
DON and yield such varied types of
beauty that one might depend en-
tirely upon them for the winter dis
play of flowers. In the great group
which is generally included in the
genus Narcissus there is available a
wonderful array of flowers which will
easily grow indoors; the Dafodils
and Jonquils and the 'Stariower or
Chalice flower and the Paper-Wh1te
Narcissus are the more important
types of these. The bulbs of good
varieties of all of these flowers may
be obtained Of the florists early in
the autumn at comparatively little
expense. AS a rule they may be
bought much more cheaply by tho
hundred than by the dozen, so It may
be worth while to form a club of your
friends to take advantage of this fact.
When the bulbs arrive they should
either be planted at nee or stored
in a cool, damp cellar where they
will not dry out. They may be plant
ed in almost any kind of receptacle
although for most purposes nothing
is 80 satisfactory as the paper flower
pots. In the case Of most bulbs, one
may be planted in a three-inch pot
or three or more in a four inch pot.
In planting it Is only necessary to
use good garden soil, placing a bit
of broken pottery over the hole in
the bottom Of the pot. The bulb
should be just buried and the earth
around it packed firmly in place that
it may not be pressed up as the roots
develop. Water thoroughly and set
away in a cool basement where the
temperature will be low and ,equable
though not freezing. Sometimes 1t
is desirable to throw over the pots
two or three thicknesses Of burlap
or old carpet to prevent the evapora-
ton of moisture. Water occasionally
as may be necessary to keep the soil
moist but otherwise leave undis-
turbed for six or eight weeks.
The purpose of putting these bulbs
ava in a dark, cool place is to
enable them to develop such a growth
of roots as would occur in autumn
were the bulbs beneath the soil out
doors. Under the latter conditions
a large root growth would have taken
place in autumn so that the plant
is able to send up its leaves and
blossoms in spring very soon after
the frost is out of the ground. In
the indoor garden we attempt to imi-
tate these conditions just as nearly
as possible; consequently the bulbs
are to be left in the cellar until such
a root growth takes place, that it 1s
evident the plant can be forced into
blossom successfully. Then is the
time to bring the bulbs into the light
and heat of the living rooms.
Many of these bulbs may also be
brought into blossom successfully in
water. Wide shallow jars may be
utilized partially filing them with
coarse gravel or broken stone. and
adding water to cover such material
The bulbs of the Paper-white Narcis-
sus or the so-called Chinese Sacred
Lily may be set in such receptacles
and placed in a cool dark DON until
the roots are we'll started.-The
