III. What Is the Ear?


the appendage attached like a shell to
ach side of the head.
But this outer appendage is merely
a device to arrest sound waves and.
protect the ear channel running into
the head. into which sound is di-
rected.
The actual ear is a mechanical ar
rangement inside the head.
Two tubes or air passages unite with
this mechanism.
One is from the outer ear. into
which you can insert the tip of your
little finger.
The other is from the upper and
back part of the throat and is called
the tube of Eustachias, or Eustachian
tube.
A curtain of living tissue stretched
tightly. and called the ear drums, sep
arates these two passageways.
The mechanism consists of the ear
drum, the bones connected Herewith,
and the nerves that run from the drum
to the brain.
If you stick your fingers into your
ears or otherwise shut out the free
passage of air in the outer ways to the
ear drum. you cannot hear.
If you choke up the inner or Eus-
tachian passages to the ears, you can
not hear.
Why?
Because there must be an equal air
pressure on each side of the MEM
dntOuS curtain ear uGum 10 make
1t vibrate and thus telegraph sound
to the brain along the nerve wires.
The ear drum is like any other
drum.
If IL has free air pressure on both
sides conclusion upon its surface
viii cause a RESONANT sound.
Not Mechanics, But Medication.
There are two ways of freeing a gas
pipe choked with frozen earth
One is TO run an iron rod through
it.
This makes a small channel and al
lows a diminished quantity of gas to
flow through.
The other is to pass the vapor of al
cohol into the pipe.
The vapor strikes the frozen earth
softens and melts first one bit and
then another, until the whole frozen
mass crumbles by degrees into a fine
powder, and the pipe is free again.
Where force is used to free a frozen
pipe a damaged pipe is the result.
Where an alcoholic vapor is used to
free pipe no damage is done.
II is the same with deafness
Where force Is used to omen tho
closed out channels, damage is done
What follows?
Intense pain.
Inflamma ton.
Earache.
Assesses.
Permanent injury

IL NEERIORIANI.

On Monday morning, Nov. g,
1908. at 7:40 o'clock occurred the
death of Mrs. Margaret Dunn,
after an illness of five weeks,
from cancereus peritonitis.
The deceased was born in Ire
land 81 years ago, and came to
this country in 1858, settling with
her father at Andover, Mass.
Several years later, or about
1884, she removed to Minnesota
from whence, after a residence
of one year, she came to Custer,
Idaho, where she made her home
until the time of her death.
Mr.. and Mrs. Dunn were among
the first settlers of that locality,
and their home was for a long
time place of refuge for the
weary traveller of pioneer days
where hospitality and such com
forts as the circumstances OF
pioneer life afforded were boun-
tifully given.
Up until the time of her last
illness, Mrs. Dunn was a hard
working woman. Nearly her
whole life was one round of hard
unrelenting toll, and no doubt
the rest from the arduous labors
of so long a day was welcomed.
She was a kind hearted woman,
and many are the deeds of char
ity recorded to her credit. Being
of a cheerful disposition, she
fought the battles of life with
courage and met the dreariest
trials with a smile.
Among those who are left to
mourn their loss, are one sister,
Mrs. L. Mcdonald of Mianeota,
Mimi. one brother, Thomas Nc
Govern of Custer, together with
one neice and several nephews,
and host of friends whose only
solace is that their loss is recon-
pensed by her gain.
After a short service at the
residence in Custer, the remains
were taken to Bonanza cemetery,
followed by a concourse of sor-
rowing friends where they were
laid to rest beside that of her
husband, who preceded her a
little more than a year ago to
the great world beyond.

SCHOOL ITEMS.

One-fourth of the school term
is gone. The golden opportun-
tiles are rapidly passing. Are
all making the most of our priv
ileges? Do all patrons and pupils
realize the Importance of making
a business of the school work?
Thus fac only very few have
been neither absent nor tardy.
We believe this can be improved.
The habits of attention to bust
ness now formed, will stick
through life.
If in the recent test any pupil
has been deficient in any branch
he must redOuble his efforts to
make good in that branch. En-
list the aid of your parents. Be
satisfied with nothing less than
perfect daily recitations. The
sum of our daily actions make
our life history.

REST IN PEACE.

Michael DonRelly of Bayhorse
died at the Beardsley Springs,
near Challis, on Tuesday, Nov.
10th, aged about 80 years. His
remains were taken to Bayhorse
and laid beside his wife, who
died several years ago.
Mr.. Donnelly was born in Ind
lana, and came to Bayhorse in
1884, where he has mined and
prospected ever since. He has
been in poor health for some
time. Deceased leaves three
children in Indiana to mourn
their loss. He was highly es-
teemed by all who knew him.
The silver cord is loosed, the
golden bowl is broken, the dust
has returned to the earth as it
was; the spirit has returned to
the God who gave it. Only mem
DRY of the old pioneer is left, yet
how sweet, how uplifting its in
fluence. For, after all, death is
but rest for the weary body.
