 He has Jeff nothing uu-aId How can he depict her fathers soTrowF' was the anxious query of those friends who were watching .he development of the picture The artist threw a mantle over Agau,aaoH's face. The blank silence was more effective than any picture woe.
 One of the most extraordinary effects produced hy au absolute silence is re- corded in the reports of convention in which the foremost men Of Virginia ook part John Randolph had meas are to carry iu which he looked for the opposition ur Alexander Campbell, man then noted for his scholarship and power in debate
 Randolph hal never seen the Scotch logiclan, but he had heard enough of him to make him and his Dartisans uneasy. When. therefore, the gaunt stranger first rose to speak in the con ventlou Randolph looked at him with such an air of alarm as to attract the whole attention of the convention and as he glanced around seemed to be asking for sympathy fin his coming de- feat. He then composed himself to listen in rapt attention.
 Campbell, aware of this byplay, he's itated and lost the thread of his argu- ment. Randolph's face by turns as he lIstescd expressed weariness indiiler- ence and finally contempt He leaned back and yawned. Campbell sat down hastily. He had lost the whole force of his speech. Not a word had been spoken. but he was defeGted-St. Louis Republic.

Titanic Tragedy Blamed
To Dead Captain.

Blame for the Titanic disaster is
chargeable directly to the failure OF
the dead Captain Smith to heed re-
peated warnings of icebergs ahead,
but responsibility for unnecessary l"s5
oflife must be shared by Captain Lord.
of the steamship Californian, through
his disregard Of distress signals. This
is the fin ing Of the senate committee
which investigated the sinking of the
Titanic, as prepared in comprehen-
sive speech delivered by William AL
den Smith, of Michigan, chairman of
the committee.
Senator Smith declared that respon-
sibility also rests upon the British
board of trade, Ito whose laxity cf
regulation and hasty inspection the
wor' d is largely indebted for the awful
fatality" In denouncing Captain
Lord, of the Californian, the senator
said the Titanic's distress signals were
plainly seen from the deck of his YES
sci short distance away.
America will leave to England the
chastisement Of those guilty, asserted
the senator, and he quoted British law
to show that Capt. Lord might be pros
ecuted for q misdemeanor.

Gather the rosebuds while ye may,
Old Time is still a-fying;
And this same flower that smiles to-
day
Tomorrow viii be dying.
The glorious lamp Of heaven, the sun,
The higher he's a-getting
The sooner will his race be run,
Ard nearer he's to setting.
That age is best which is the first,
When youth and blood are warmer;
But being spent, the worse and worst
Times still succeed the former.
Then be not coy, but use your time;
And while ye may 90 marry;
For having lost but once your prime
You may forever tarry.

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
remedies. Deafness is caused by an
inflamed condition of the mucous lin
ing of the Eustachian Tube. When
this tube is infamed you have q rum
bling sound or imperfect hearing, and
when it is entirely closed, deafness is
the result, and unless the infamma-
ton 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 IN intlamed con
dltiou of the mucous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars
for any case Of Deafness caused by Ca
tarrh that cannot be cured by Halls
