Deafness Cannot be Cured

by local applications, as they cannot reach
the diseased portion of the ear There is
only one way to cure deafness, and that is
by constitutional remedies. Deafness is
caused by an inhamed condition of the 1nu.
cous lining of the Eustachian Tube. When
this tube is infamed you have a rumblinp
sound or imperfect hearing, and when it Is
entirely closed, Deafness is the result. and
unless the inflammation can be taken out
and this tube restored to its normal condi.
tlon hearing will be destroyed forever; nine
cases out of ten are caused by Catarrh, which

Two Old AdageS,

There are two old adages. Haste
makes waste" and MAKE haste slowly, u
that everyone should employ when they
undertake to cure cough in few min
utes with preparations containing NOR
phine, opium, chloroform or other mar
cotics. They may stop the cough and
cause sleep quickly. but they also dry up
the secretions and constipate, leaving
oftimes a far worse trouble. Rydale's
Cough Elixir is guaranteed under the
Pure Food and Drugs Law to contain
no opiates nor harmful drugs of any kind
or character. Think about it when you
or one of the children have a cough.

strengthening the kidneys so they will

The compiling and printing of tn

ladies who had it in charge, as well al
those who contributed generously to it
have every reason to be proud OF theIi
success. Six hundred copies have beer
printed and it is now on sale at Mrs. u
Nd. CampbelPs, the price being 80 cents
1t is hoped, if possible to sell the books
before the Institute closes in June so that
as large sum as possible may be turned
over for the repair fund every dollar be-
ing duplicated by Mr.. Vail The adver.
Using committee have worked hard and
secured over $3.50 in advertising, which
it is expected will pay for the books and
give about SIS dollars in money beside.
The book is very attractive and is well
worth the moderate sum asked. 1t is
bound in plain, substantial cloth cover
and contains 143 pages of classified reci-
pes, all contributed by we'll known and
efficient housekeepers. 1t is not claimed
that the recipes are all original but they
are all tried and true" and represent the
favorite dishes of many we'll fed families.
This first effort of the club certainly ap-
pears to be an unqualified success.
Annual Club Meeting.
The Lyndon Union Club held its an
nual meeting Thursday in Gable hall, so
members being present. Reports OF
officers and committees were given,
which were very interesting and showed
spirit of mutual helpfulness and good
will. On the recommendation of the ex-
ecutive board it was voted to establish
a civics department in the club, to work
with the Village Improvement society.
A committee was appointed to revise the
constitution, the members being Mrs. E.
L. Wells, Mrs. E. A. Shorey, Mrs. c. H.
Lee. Mrs. Wells gave an interesting re-
port of the class work of the year there
being mothers circle, music circle and
a domestic science class, which has taken
cooking lessons. These will probably
continue another year and others may be
added. The election of officers resulted
in the old board with the exception of
treasurer: President, Mrs. B. F. Brown;
LIST vice pres, Mrs. H. w. Lyster; 2nd
vice pres, Mrs. c. H. Lee; rec. Sec, Mrs.

The Spring Freshet.
The water last Wednesday was the
highest it has been for years, since 1880,
as reported, and all the main roads into
Lyndonville were impossible. There
was no school at the Institute, as
teachers and scholars could not get out
to the Center, and the road near the
creamery, and in the Willows was also
Hooded. Great damage has been done
% the streets and sidewalks in all these
places The meadow south of the vii
age was beautiful lake, which we wish
night be made permanent one. The
high water drove out host of musk
ats, and the hunters were thick for a
while.

marrying Parson" BurreI|
Made a Specially of
Matrimony.
HACKMEN ASSISTED HIM

Philadelphia, Oct. 16.-The death OF
the Rev. William H. Burren in Cam
den recalls the days when that clergy
man was known far and near as the
marrying parson." For twenty years
before the passage of the present law
requiring licenses before contracting
marriage in Camden, Mr.. Burrell mar
ried thousands of pairs.
Camden at that time was the "Gret-
ma Green" to which persons fled to
avoid the red tape and publicity at
tending weddings in their home states.
Mr. Burrell was quick to see there
was more money in specializing in the
ministry, as well as in other profess
sions, and he adopted the subject of
matrimony as his particular branch.
He made fortune.
Cab men, it was said, were in league
with Mr.. Burrell and received a per-
centage OF the fees. The clergyman g
home, 43 Cooper street, was near all
ferries and his wife was nearly always
one of the witnesses.
Not tnfreQuently there would be sew
eral pairs in his parlor at the same
time waiting their turn to be told they
were man and wife.
Mr.. Burrells matrimonial business
at one time was cut into by another
clergyman. who reduced rates and Of
fered larger inducements to the hack
men, The second clergyman did a big
business. but suddenly left. The re-
port at the time was that Mr.. Burreu
had induced him to go for a money
consideration.
When the Lloyd marriage license
law went into effect, Mr.. Burrell had
sufficient money to retire, but occas-
ionally he has since officiated at the
marriages Of those who came from
other sections of New Jersey and do
not require licenses
Mr.. Burrell was a Methodist Episco-
pal clergyman. He was one of the
founders Of Ocean City and the first
postmaster of that resort. He was 81
years old and greatly enfeebled by
age. Kidney trouble was the direct
cause Of death.
