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
remedies. Deafness is-caused by an
inflamed condition of the mucous lin
ing of the Eustachian Tube. When
this tube is inf1amed you have a rum
bling sound or imperfect hearing, and
when it is entirely closed. Deafness is
the result, and unless the inf1amma-
ton can be taken out and this tube
restored to it's normal condition, hear
ing will be destroyed forever; nine
cases out of ten are caused by Catarrh.
which is nothing but an inflamed con-
dition 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 circu-
lars, free.

learned that he had scheduled big
list of real estate holdings to qualify
as bondsman for boy friend.
When Lawlor is carrying your grips
to the elevator Or hurrying to your
room with ice water, he takes all your
seedlings for slowness or stupidity
with the same owl-like smile. His
thoughts are not on what you say, but
on the three. fiat houses he owns on
the South side. When you feel flush
and tip him dollar he smiles again
and calculates that your tip is about
one-tenth of his daily income, whether
he gets tip Or not
LaWlor determined to become the
Rockefeller Bellhop fifteen years ago,
at the age of II. He has succeeded,
but is not yet satisfied. He thinks of
dabbling in grain, and is grooming
himself for his onslaught on the pit.
He has $4,000 in cash in the bank
waiting for the first good tip that will
double his investment for him.
The wealthy bellhop will not admit
that he is a man of means. He said
last night with stealthy glance from
right to left at prospective tippers,
Don't talk about it, Can't a fellow
make little change without the world
knowing about it? Cut it out. Tackle
somebody else who wants to be the
chesty rich. I'm not admitting a word
of it. Sh! Don't let therhsnear you"
Lawlor doesn't smoke, chew or
drink. He lives with an aunt, and his
mission in life is not to act foolish
with money. Other bellhops refuse
the food at the hotel, eating outside in
a lordly way. Lawlor declares it's
good enough for him, and he proves it
by eating it and saving money.
He's worth every cent of $5O,O0O."
said an attache of the Stratford last
night ''He was at the Victoria for
ten years, when it was customary for
bellhops to earn $40 day. He is
gentlemanly. courteous and willing.
He has made many friends, ;\ld these
friends in number of cases are men
of wealth and influence in the loop
district They often ask for him per-
sonally and give him good advice as
to what to do with his money for a
safe investment. That explains how
he has been able to do so we'll. No
one envies him his wealth. He has
we'll earned it,"

THE STATE FAIR
WILL HAVE RACING
Splendid Speed Program Has Been Ar
ranged-HarneSS and Running Races
Every Day Of the Fair, October j
to IL Inclusive.

The racing department and speed
program of the State Fair this year
have been fully adapted to the needs
and requirements of Arkansas owned
and bred horses, both in the harness
and running classes.
The speed department is maintained
on a very conservative basis for the
purpose of encouraging the breeding
and owning of the best horses in this
state, where all conditions are natur-
ally so favorable to this important and
profitable industry. II
The test of thoroughbred and
standard bred horses can only be made
by speed comparison, and the speed
ring must be maintained for this ppr7
pose, as it has been from time imme-
mortal, giving at the same time the
most thrilling spectacle that can de-
light the hearts of all those who ads
mire the noble beast that has ever
been mans companion in husbandry
and conquest. eo
The harness program will be car
rled out under the rules of the Amer
lean Trotting association, of which
the Fair is member. All harness
races will be emile heats, each heat
race as follows: Monday, 2:2O pace,
$500; trot for green horses owned in
Arkansas, $3.50. Tuesday, 2:3O trot,
5000 Wednesday, free for all pace,
$500. Thursday, $50 trot, $500; pace
for green horses owned in Arkansas,
$3.50. Friday, free for all trot, $4OQ.g
Saturday, 2:3O pace, $500; Consolation
race for horses that have started, but
not won, $3.50. III II
There will be two or more running
races each day for purses of $3.50,
conditions to be arranged suitable for
the horses On the grounds. LIB

In an ounce OF pansy seed there are
about 10000 seeds. They sell in this

an ounce OF seed one should raise at
least 1000 plants. They are used for
cut flowers In winter, for vases In the

planted by the millions. and almost
every house where there is a garden
shows some also. The pansy industry
is not only profitable for market
plants. but also for the seeds. There
are imported TO this country at least
500 pounds every year. Uncle Sam
buys at least fifty pounds. Instead OF
buying these seeds abroad they could
