Deafness Can Not Be Cured

by local applications as they can not reach the
diseased portion Of the car. There is only one
way to cure deafness, and that Is by consttu-
tional remedies, Deafness is caused by an in
famed condition OF the mucous lining of the
eustachhn tube. When this tube is inflamed
you have rumbling found or imperfect hear
ing, and when II Is entirely closed. deafness is
the result, and unless the Inflammation can be
taken out and this tube restored to it's norman
condition, hearing will be destroyed forever:
nine cases out Of ten are caused hy catarrh
which is nothing but an infianed condition Of
the mucous surfaces.

PERPLEXING DOUBT. - Consterna-
ton prevails in Chicago over a recent
decision of Municipal Judge Better
that very many married people, who
had been joined in wedlock by JUS
tees of the Peace. since the inaugur-
alton Of the Municipal Court, were
contrary to law, therefore null and
void. Weeping wives and anxious
husbands, some OF them with babes
in their arms, while others led small
children, besieged the license clerk 5
Office, in the vain effort to learn
whether or not they were legally
married. All Of them had read the
decision and were thereby prepared
for the worst Some were for re-
marrying at once, others for waiting
to see what the appellate court will
do to set the matter straight. and
still others favored an act OF the
State Legislature to lcgalizc the act
of the justices, making the marriages
legal ob initio.

Is Den OF REPTILES. - Three
women who were picking berries
over an abandoned mine, near La
tribe. Pa, a couple of weeks ago. fell
into a den of snakes, by the caving of
the roof of earth-crust. They fell
twenty-five feet, and so slow was the
motion of the yielding soil that nei-
Their of the women was hurt, but
they encountered another danger of
special dread to their sex, the pres
ence of a den of snakes, which they
fought, with scarcely any appliances
for defense, for several hours. Fiji
teen snakes were killed. Their
screams were fortunately heard by a
party of farm hands passing by, and
they were hauled to the surface by a
rope thrown into the pit.

passage finds pertinent application
in the Sullivan estate affair which
has attracted more than ordinary at
tentiOn on the part of the public
during the past five or six years.
The litigation has been prolific over
this matter both in the Federal and
State courts, finally resulted in Sen

the dead mans property, estimated
all the way from $1,000 to $780,
600. The inquiry as to the division

colored gentleman in the woodpile in
that Mr.. Piles is q candidate for re-

intimated that John l.. Wilson of the

pushing the Sullivan matter to the
front. just now, in order to preju-

forthcoming.
