CLTRRRH CANNOT Be cuLED

by local applications, as they can
not 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 infiamed condition
Of the Eustachian Tube. When
this tube is inflamed you have a
rumbling sound or imperfect hear
ing. 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
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 case of Deafness

the line SO much above this mark
the engineers and officers of the
Salt Lake are confident that no
further trouble will be encount-
cred. In fact during the last
week in July a cloudburst
occurred in the mountains above
Caliente which sent a wall of
water, ten feet high in some
places, down the canyon. 1t tore
out portions Of the old line and
some Of the work under construc-
ton, but without exception the
new line was high and dry and
unScarred by the rush of waters.
That anything more terrific than
this flood can occur is hard to be-
Iieve and the fact that the High
Line" withsIood it is looked upon
by officials of the road as sufficient
proof that the road is now out of
danger.
Under these circumstances the
officials of the road feel no
hesitancy in announcing that dur
ing the coming winter, the annual
influx of tourists to Southern Cali
forDia can be handled ~ the Salt
Lake without fear of delays and
particularly attractive service will
be installed to accomn odale this

HOW BURNT CORK IS MADE
Product Of Theatrical "PaInt Facto-
rles" Just As Arc other Cos
metIcs Used by Profession.

Tho popular impression as to the
application OF burnt cork by minstrel
performers and actors in general Is
that II Is rubbed on the face and
hands Of the player from a cork whose
end Is charred In a convenient gas
Jet. This Impression is, however, in
correct The burnt cork used by min.
strels and others Is the product Of
the theatrical paint factories" Just
as Is any other cosmetic or pigment
employed by the profession.
One house makes Il In tho follow.
Ing manner: The corks are placed In
three tin vessels. resembling washboil.
and bottom. Alcohol Is sprinkled over
the corks and then they are fired"
When the corks have been properly
charred they are placed in muslin
sacks, which are kneaded in barrels
Of water This operation forces the
powdered charcoal through the sacks
into the water.
When all the charred corks have
been worked through the sacks into
the water in this way the water is
drained through a ciose canvas sack,
and what remains In that sack is
ready for the performers. The stun
Is put up In cans, from which, when
the minstrel is ready to BLACK up"
he takes q little Of the black paste In
his hands ana applies It to his face,
neck and sometimes his hands.

OFFICIAL PAPER OF EXC co.
Wednesday. August 80. 1911
THE MEADOW WILEY WASH

BY the expenditure of over
$4,000. 900 during the pAst fifteen
months, the San Pe@ro, Los
Angeles and Salt Lake railroad
will soon be in a position to hid
defiance to the sulking desert
stream in Meadow Valley wash,
which, for seasons past has
hindered the operation of the
main line between Los Angeles
and Salt Lake. The H;upendoUs
task of constructing the new
high line" through the Meadow
Valley wash in Nevada is rapidly
nearing completion and within the
next ninety days the Salt Lake
route will be free from the posi-
bility of recurrence, of the
disastrous washouts of recent
years.
When completed, Gig lty miles
Of new track will have leen laid,
72A miles Of new grading will
have been done; ten new tunnels.
aggregating more than $500 feet
in length will have been built and
% steel bridges, aggrcgating more
than 1000 feet in length and call
ing for the use of over 5000 tons
Of structural steel will Rave been
placed. At the present time the
work has been completed to
Caliente, Nevada, ard for short
distance north Of that point.
Farther north the work is being
rushed with great rapidity and
three months time will see the
scenic short line between Southern
California and the East forever
free from the danger # serious
washouts in it's hitherto weakest
spot-the Meadow Valley wash.
The giganticness of the task
which the Salt Lake route has
accomplished can only be realized
by seeing. Miles Of tunnel have
been built, the most modern
bridges installed, thousands of
feet Of heavy bag and rock rip-rap
put in place and even the course
OF the river completely changed.
And all for what? To combat a
sluggish desert stream which for
years flowed sullenly through the
narrow canyon, disappearing altu-
gether at times and then, for a
single night turned into a raging
torrent which carried death and
destruction before it.
When the Salt Lake line was
first in course Of construction a
party Of railroad.rs overlooking
the work encountered an old
Indiana resident of the valley
for many years. The old tribes.
man was kindly treated by a
member Of the party and, in re-
turn, mumbled to one of them:
Twenty years heap dry
twenty heap rain"
The history of the Meadow
Valley has borne out this statement
OF the ancient Indian.
The new line so rapidly nearing
completion is twelve to fifteen feet
higher along it's entire length
than the highest known high water
mark. The high wnter mark was
established in 1909 when the
greatest food ever known came
down the canyon. and by placing
