There is only one way to cure deafness
and that is by constitutional remedies.
Deafness is caused by an inhamed con.
dition of the mucous lining of the Eus.
tachian Tube. When this tube is inham'
ed you have rurHbling sound or inper-
feet hearing, and when it is entirely clos
ed, 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 inha;ned condi-
ton of the mucous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars for
any case of Deafness Caused by catarrh
that cannot be cured by Halls Catarrb

THE forestry bureau of the de-
partment of agriculture is doing
good work in educating the PEG
pie as to the importance of preserv-
ing and increasing the forest re-
serves ofthis country. The alarming
decrease in the supply of timber in
this country is impressing all
thoughtful persons with the i'm
Anortance of measures to prevent
the total depletion of our for
ests. Every person who OWNS an
acre of timbered land should pay
heed to this matter, and do his
part to aid the government in this
important work.

PRETTY BIRTHDAY PARTY.
Thirty.six Little Folks Assist Master Vic.
tor Hamilton to Celebrate His
Fourteenth Birthday.

One of the most delightful events
of the winter in Brownsville juve-
nile circles was the party given
by Mrs. w. A. Hamilton Monday
afternoon in celebration of the
fourteenth birthday of her little
son, Master Victor. Thirty-slx
little ones were guests. at this
happy occasion. 1t was a very
pretty party, indeed, and needless
to say, was most thoroughly en-
joyed by the participants. In adj
dition to the usual pastimes which
afford endless diversion for chill
dren, there were two prize COLI
tests, one for girls and one for
boys. The girls were provided
with doll hat frames to trim, and
a quantity of feathers, flowers and
ribbon strewed on a sheet for them
to select their own trimming from,
a prize being awarded to the one
achieving the best result. 1t was
quite surprising to see the dainty
work of some of the little millln-
ers. Almost all Of the hats were
pretty and tasteful, so much so as
to prove quite puzzling to the
ladies serving as judges. These
were Mesdames Porter, Sreager
and Heustis, who finally decided
that the prize creation was that
produced by little Rosita Putegnat,
and she received a lovely set of
Dorothy Dainty ribbons for
sash and hair. The boys contest
consisted in pinning tie on large
picture of Buster Brown The
contestants were blindfolded and
the one who succeeded i'll placing
the bow nearest the right place on
Busters neck was awarded the
prize, a gold stick pin. Master
lose Gomez was the lucky one.
Refreshments were served IN the
dining room. which was DtettilV
decorated with ferns and American
beauty roses. The table was es-
pecially attractive with its pink
and green decoration, the center
of attraction being a large birthday
cake with pink and white icing,
which bore fourteen pink and
white wax tapers. Ice cream and
cake of various kinds were served.
The cutting OF the birthday cake
was the occasion of breathless in
terest. The ring was cut by Master
Victor Hamilton who in turn
presented it to little Miss Dorothy
Porter. The dime fell to Miss
Katherine Kleiber and the button
to Miss Bertha Hicks.
The little ones who had the
pleasure of attending were Misses
Lillian, Nettie and Bertha Hicks,
Dorothy and Martha Porter, Kath-
crime Kleiber, Edna Layton,

Cure For Stall Gnawino.

Craving all wood within reach is
one of the commonest and most objec-
tionable habits among horses. The
habit fortunately can be easily cured
and should not be neglected a single
day when observed. as it quickly
spreads. SO that in a few days every
horse when not otherwise occupied is
pulling the place to pieces with his
teeth, says Suburban Life.
Half a pound of bitter aloes, mixed
with a quart of water and boiled down
to a pint, should be applied freely with
which shows the marks of teeth or is

always effective. more than one appli-
cation rarely being required.

HINTS FOR FARMERS
Care of Swine.


See that the little pigs have plenty Of
exercise and do not get too fat Of they
will get thumps.
Don't give little pigs cornmeal. Wait
till they are d few months old before
you begin 10 do that. Give them plenty
of room and hustle them arouul for
exercise.
Feed the sows carefully. Give very
little corn and plenty of roots. Too
much corn will make crazy sows IN
delirium from fever.
Wheat middlings and shots are
much better feeds for pigs than wheat
bran.
AS the nount of grain fed to brood
sows must be small or they Will get
too fat, most farmers try to fill them
up by making a thin slop. Water is a
poor filing material. Better use clover
or alfalfa hay. This gives the animal
the sensation of fullness and comfort
and at the same time furnishes most
valuable nutriment. Mature hogs that
are thin may be made to gain half a
pound per day on alfalfa without grain.
1t is high time that the value of skim
milk and buttermilk as pig foods was
fully appreciated. AS an agency for
rearing all young animals they have no
equal.
If there is any tendency to constipa-
ton. feed a little oilmeal or ground
faxseed.-Farm Journal.

The Kicking Horse.

If a horse kicks while feeding and
his neighbor is evidently the object of
his wrath. he should be either removed
to Il stall ext to an empty one or
should be screened high enough to pre-
vent him from seeing into the next one.
If he kicks apparently aimlessly. as
many horses do. from impatience
while awaiting the feed which he a
hear being distributed to his neighbors,
he should lie fed first.
Kicking without malice prepense may
often be cured by means of a stall with
swinging beams in place of fixed sides.
These give to every kick. and it is
surprising how soon the absence of re-
sistance to his hoofs destroys all ap-
parent pleasure in kicking. Another
method is to hang grain sacks filled
with straw at each side of the stalls.
covering the area struck by the hoofs.
This has the additional advantage Of
preventing injury to the legs and acts
much the same as the swinging sides.
