Deafness Cannot be Cured

by local applications, as they cannot reach
the diseased portion ofthe ear. There IS only
one way TO cure deafness, and that is by con
stitutiOnal remedies. Deafness is caused by
an inflamed condition OF the mucous lining
of the Eustachian Tube. When this tube is
inflamed you have "a rumbling sound or i'm
perfect hearing and when il is entirely
closed, Deafness is the result, and unless the
inflammation can be taken out and this tube
restored TO its normal condition, hearing will
be destroyed forever; nine cases out Of ten
are caused by Catarrh, which is nothing but
an inflamed condition Of the mucous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars for any

that the present forest reserves be thrown
open to destruction because. forsooth.
they think that thereby the price OF lum-
Der could be put down again for two or
three more years. Their attitude is pre-
cisely like that OF an agitator protesting
against the outlay of money by farmers on
manure and in taking care OF their farms
generally. Undoubtedly, il the average
farmer were content absolutely to ruin his
farm he could for two or three years avoid
spending any money on it and yet make a
good deal OF money out of it. But only a
savage would in his private affairs show
such disregard of the future, yet it is pre-
cisely this disregard of the future which
the opponents Of the forestry system are
now endeavoring to get the people OF the
United States to show.
The only trouble with the movement for
the preservation of our forests is that it
has not gone nearly far enough and was
not begun soon enough. 1t is most for
tunate thing, however, that we began it
when we did. We should acquire in the
Appalachian and White mountain regions
all the forest lands that it is possible to
acquire for the use CT the nation. These
lands, because they form a national asset,
are as emphatically national as the rivers
which they feed and which flow through
so many states before they reach the
ocean.

ORLAND POWER PLANT.

AcNeiopHhsht Dy tne SnaW at Ala
moOsook Nearing Completion.
The electrical power plant which is
being built on the shore Of Alamoosook
lake by the Shaws, of Greenville, and 9TH
ers, Is nearing completion.
The new plant will be one Of the best
equipped for its size in this vicinity. The
power house, which is concrete struct-
ure 4axa6 feet, is supported by a concrete
foundation thirtyfve to forty feet in
depth. Penstocks will bring the water
from Teddy pond, half-mile distant, and
it is expected that from 800 to ECO horse
power willibs developed at the start.
The electrical equipment will be of the
best and it will be run direct from the
water wheel shafts, thus saving betting
and secure much better power.
The work of completing the plant has
been somewhat retarded by the late ar
rival OF the electrical apparatus, but some
OF it is already on the ground and the rest
will arrive shortly, so that the plant can be
completed and put in operation in about
six weeks.
QUILT to supply the penstocks which will
carry the water to the power plant. These
penstocks are four feet in diameter in
some places and tifty-fou feet in Others
They will develop more power than the
starting capacity Of the new plant.
Already poles and wires have been
erected from the plant to Bucksport, and
as soon as the plant is started the street
lights of Bucksport will be lighted by
power from the plant. The new concern
has not made any other contracts for fur
mshing power, but there is a good terri
tory to be supplied with electricity, and
the company should be able to dispose of
its capacity almost at the start.
