DEAFNESS CANNOT BE CURED

by local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
There is only one way to cure deaf
ness. and that is by constitutional rem.
edies. Deafness is clNsed by an IN
famed condition of the mucous lining
of the Eustachian Tube. When this
tube is inflamed you have a rumbling
sound or imperfect hearing, and when
1t is entirely closed, Deafness is the
result, and unless the Inflammation
can be taken out and this tube re-
stored to it's normal condition, hearing
will be destroyed forever; nine cases
out of ten are caused by Catarrh
which is nothing but an inflamed con
dition of the mucous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars
for any case of Deafness (caused by
catarrh) that cannot be cured BY

four as a possible father, and she had
no hesitation in approaching Gormly
with much more familiarity than she
would have dreamed of allowing her
self had he been younger. And yet
Gormiy himself was a young looking
man for forty-four. He was still as
tall and slender. not to say spare, as
he had been when a boy. He was
smooth shayen, and the iecks Of gray
in his blond hair we're scarcely notice
able. If Miss Haldane had e given
thought OF his age, she would have
supposed him ten years younger than
he was; that IS, on appearance. When
she thought of his business, she would
have considered him sixty. Ever since
she could remember, she had dealt
at the great shop, and Gormly himself
unConsciously took on to her the rs
pect Of ancient history.
So the little affair ran on; Gormly
consciously becoming Tor and more
deeply involved, Miss Haldane uncon-
sciously Interviewing herself in the
same tangled web.

brought Ireland, England, France,
Germany, Holland, Spain, Italy, and
the Orient into New York bay and IN
loaded them in his great institution.
He had conceived, some dozen years
before after paying tremendous freight
charges, the propriety of establishing
his own line of freight steamers. 1t
had amused him to combine the prac-
tise OF the ancient merchant prince
with the customs of the modern one.
He had bought the controlling inter
est in a freight line of half a dozen
large steamers, which he found no
difficulty in using as cargo carriers
for other people when they we're not
supplying his own needs.
The purchase of the freight line had
with 1t a lease of one of the piers in
the North river. The lease lad run
out the year before. He had there
after availed himself of what he con-
ceived TO be an excellent opportunity
of subleasing another pier in the East
river. The city had just completed an
elaborate railroad, surface and sub
way, for the transportation of heavy
freight from the water front 10 the
great mercantile establishments In
land. This system had been leased
to the Gotham Freight Traction COM

ers and persons unknown to the gen.
eral public. carefully concealed from
Il in fact.
The corporation had not been form
ed to promote the health of its mem
bers. Therefore when Gormly APP
piled to the authorities for permits
sion to construct . switch from his
The Miller press. [volume] (Miller, S.D.) 190?-current, 1911-08-03

was quite evident that none OF them
had found favor in her eyes, and that
she was still free. Ho would enter it,
he decided; but how?
First Of all, something must be done
TO bring Gormly himself into the pub
lie eye in some other capacity, some
higher capacity, some more attractive
capacity, than that Of a mere retailer
Of ribbons, so to speak; the public eye
for Gormly being Miss Haldane's liq-
uid orbs. And Gormley knew that the
way to private consideration Is more
often than not through public inter
est. He had to do something to justi-
fy himself, therefore, TO make himself
known in some enviable way; In short,
he determined to make himself worthy
of her. And again the question arose;
but howP
He had thought vaguely of the ra-
cling game, Of the most magnificent Of
yachts, of the finest and speediest Of
stables, Of the fastest string OF auto
mobiles, Of a thousand similar things
which he had dismissed as unworthy
OF his high purpose and inadequate to
his end; until finally, fortune favoring
him, he hit upon the field of politics.
Miss Haldane in some Of those now
rather frequent conferences. had cas-
ually enough remarked hat she liked
men who did things, who really ac-
complished something for good In this
world.
Gormly instantly resolved to do
something. Now if any man really
wants to accomplish good in this
world, there are few opportunities of
greater possibilities than those pre-
scented in the political arena There
is also no field in which it is harder
to accomplish the end. Gormly as a
political force was entirely unknown.
He was without experience. One
requisite, popularity considered vital,
money. Another requisite he pos
sessed albeit un%wittingly, was char
acter. And still a third was his, and
that was imagination coupled with
capacity-the ideal and the real; the
dreamer and the practical man in one!
An Irresistible combination that!
Fortune was further kind to him.
however, for concurrently with his de-
cision she presented him with an
opening. Gormly's business was suffi-
ciently great to have enabled him to
extend it in several directions. He

reader. He had neither the time nor
the inclination to search the journals
in which were chronicled the doings
of social New York-in which the Hal
dane name was prominent; so he in
structed his private secretary, Cha
Toner, upon whose discretion he could
rely, to have sent to him at his private
address all clippings relating to Miss
Haldane. Gormly, therefore, knew the
life of the object of his attention as
well as 1t could be known from its out
ward and visible presentation before
the public. Indeed. there was little
that was concealable under such cir
cumstances-the higher you rise the
less privacy you have, ~obscurity being
the prerogative, or the penalty, OF the
humble-so that he was entirely
aware of Miss Haldane's goings and
comings. who her friends were. what
houses she visited, what diversions
she affected, who paid her attention,
and so on.
Meanwhile the man did not neglect
his Understanding would ever
make him do that-but he divided his
time between 1t and the young woman
which was a great concession to her
influence. One reason why he had be-
come such an a~ssiduous student of the
clippings was because he wanted to
know whether Miss Haldane was, or
was likely to be. engaged to be mar
ried. His apprehensions on that score
were soon set at rest. 1t was Miss
Haldane's second season. She had
created an instant Juror when she had
been launched in society the year be-
fore. The usual contingent Of Inn
pecunious foreigners had promptly
laid their coronets at her feet: but II

GOWNS FOR DOG DAYS
STYLISH MODEL FOR GIRL WHO
is OWN DREssMAKER.
Simple, Cool Afternoon Frock That
Launders Well and Costs Little
Money Is Most Needed
During Hot Spell.

It IS astonishing how many girls
make their own frOcks nowadays and
what taste and good sense they put
into the buying Of the materials. The
primary reason for the industry, Of
course, Is that so many changes are
needed for a smart appearance. and
where money is not plentiful there is
nothing to do but to acquire the gentle
art Of the neeCie. AS to the disCre-
ton displayed with the purchasing,
1t must be due to the fact that so
many mothers give a dress allowance
and wisely stop with the sur agreed
upon, no matter how many other
things are wanted. In this way the
girl learns how to make the dress
the experience gained thereby is GER
tain to benefit her all her life.
The dress most needed at this dog
day time is the simple, cool afternoon
froCk that launders well, hat costs
little money and yet, somehow, pre-
sents an appearance dainty enough
for all the little social occasions that
come up. This simple and girlish
gown can be turned out for 50, and If
the material is carefully chosen and
the work we'll done, it will have a
stamp Of real distinction. Ramie lin
en-, in a dull shade of coronation
purple, is one of the textures much
used now for the semi-dress frock
the smart girl wears in the afternoon.
This material and various muslins of
effective pattern-preferably stripes
are made up into one-piece effects,
with the inevitable collarless neck and
elbow sleeves. There is always a
dainty fiat collar in white, too, fare
cuffs matching, or the collarless neck
line will end with a little bias Of the
gown material, this bit of color show
ing smartly on the white.
In our illustration are given two
froCks which may be used for both
indoors and out, and be made up
most in~eXpensiVely. The one at the
left is a collarless morning frock for
a girl of sixteen, the bodice and at

About Ponqee.

Pongee silk is the undyed silk OF
silkworms fed on the leaves of the
scrub oak chiefly. The silk is pro-
duced almost exclusively in Shantung
province. The real pongee cloth,
made Of this uncolored specially pro-
duced silk. is distinct from the pom
gees Of m made in all colors
from other silks.
Each piece Of cloth Is made from a
particular lot of silk, and, therefore.
each piece varies from all other pieces
in exact weight and %fineness, and in a
slight degree in color and other quail
ties. Women shopping in Chinese pon-
gees find it difficult to match pieces.

A POPULAR SUMMER SKIRT
Linen and Pique Bid Fair to Retain
Their Popularity During
Hot Season.
M~~ DA~

The white linen or pique skirt bids
fair to be as popular this season as
ever. Nothing looks so cool and allur-
ing In warm weather as the costume
of spotless white. And the dainty
blouse could not exist without the &C
companying smart tailored skirt.
The skirts this year are all cut on
straight, simple, narrow lines. The
buttons extend down one side all the
way to the hem, or the skirt may also
be fastened down the two side cores
just far enough to make a comfort
able placket.
Occasionally, one sees a few plaits
inserted, to give greater freedom, but
the plain skirt is far more practical
for laundering purposes. Large pearl
buttons are still the chief form Of
decoration, though a six-inch fold OF
the same material stitched q few
inches above the hem of the skirt may
give a little variety when one Is plan
ming a number of skirts.
Another model that is attractive is
a nine-gore skirt, whose every gore
had an inch and a half tuck stitched
down to the bottom of the skirt. This
gave no extra flare, but gave stability
to material hat is light in weight.
The girl who has enough skirts and
dainty blouses has a fine foundation
for her summer wardrobe.
