Deafness Cannot Be Cured

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 con
stitutional remedies. Deafness is
caused by an iniamed condition OF
the mucous lining of the Eustach
ian Tube. When this tube is in
famed you have rumbling sound
or imperfect hearing, and when il
is entirely closed, Deafness is the
result, and unless the inflammation
can be taken out and this; tube re
stored to its normal condition, hear
ing will be destroyed forever; nine
cases out of ten are caused by Ca
tarrb. which is nothing but an in
famed condition of the mucous sur
faces. $40 ,zy.a -, $50

ent, and it is in the home that the
true condition is the least acknowl-
edged. Blind children are given more
consideration.
From the economic standpoint
much can be said. The totally deal
must be educated by specially train
ed teachers from the age of two
years to seven years. There are but
few employers who would not con
slider partial deafness handicap
Thus the earning capacity of the
deaf is decreased.
"In 1900 there were 24,969 totally
deaf people who could not speak
and 64,91S totally deaf people who
could speak in the United States
Seventy-five per cent of them were
wage earners. Many of the trades
are responsible for deafness, sixty
of such trades have been mentioned
Yet nothing is being done to prevent
this, nor are the employers held re
sponsible. Society should take a
more lenient attitude toward this
class of deaf persons. Employment
bureaus in large cities who are es
pecially for the deaf people would
help.

NEW TRIMMING FOR
EVENING DRESS

Black diamante is the newest orna-
mentation for evening dresses, and is
taking the place Of bead embroideries,
pink or silver pearls and the heavy
silks which have been so fashionable
of late. It is also used extensively for
ornamenting couture bands and caps.
Made of the smallest black particles,
studded closely together, this black
paste at first appearance looks like cut
steel, but in artificial light it sparkles
brightly in curious shades of green
and red. Black paste, or diamante.
though at its best on a black velvet
foundation, also forms an effective
contrast on the new chalk-white vel
vets used this season for evening
dresses.
In one dress Of the latter material,
made on simple lines with deep hem
of velvet brocade on silver tissue,
bands of black diamante decorated the
corsage, which was softened with
folds of white chantilly and ermine. A
large buckle Of the black diamante,
threaded with lace, finished the waist
in front, and a similar trimming ap-
peared at the back, holding in place a
princess train OF the velvet brocade.
