A DECK OF CARDS.

A deck of cards has many hearts
But never falls in love;
1t has, I'm told, at times, cold hands
That never rear glove;
AAbough the deck is often cut,
You never hear it squeal;
1t ne'er complains whene'er 1t gets
A downright shameful deal.
To draw a card, a pencil you
Will never need at all;
A hand of cards don't visit, though
It sometimes gets a call;
To hold ones temper in a game
Is very little use,
For If you pick a two-spot up,
You're sure to raise the deuce.
Smart Set.

HOUSEHOLD CARES LESSENED.


The woman who has modern domestic
cares upon her may feel inclined to
gaze enviously upon the picture, sug-
gested recently, of households of the
future. which are to be conducted with
ease and certainty. To have
every need of comfort, cleanliness and
health brought within reach without
the seeking, to have a perfect system OF
life ordered by the pressing of buttons
and the turning of taps. would trans
cend all existing ideas of the ideal
home But to the women who still
endure the trials of dependence, there
is some comfort in n thought that
scientific supply must have Its limits.
There will always be some aids to com
plete domestic happiness which cannot
be laid on at the main.

Deafness Cannot be Cured

There is only one way to cure deafness,

Deafness is caused by an inhamed con

Eustachian Tube. When this tube is
inhamed you have rumbling 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 condition, hearing will be de
stroyed forever; nine cases out of ten
are caused by Catarrh, which is moth
