Deafness Cannot Be Cured

by local applications, as they cannot
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 intlamed condi-
ton of the mucous lining of the Eusta-
chan Tube. When this tube is inflamed
you have a rumbling sound or imperfect
hearing, and when it is entirely closed.
Deafness is the result. and unless the in
flammation can be taken out and this
tube restored to it's normal condition.
hearing will be destroyed forever; nine
cases out of ten are caused by Catarrh,
which is nothing but an infamed condi-
ton of the mucous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars for any case OF
Deafness Caused by tarrh that cannot be cured by
Halls Catarrh Cure. Send Cor circulars free.

Supposedly Inflicted by

Harry S. Scrivener, thirty years old.

yesterday afternoon on his way to Emer-

and Maryland deputy sheriffs are scour-
ing Prince George County, Md, for

SOCIAL CONDITIONS

World Never Need Be Afraid of the
Man with Full Dinner Pail,
Says Speaker.

There are very few men who know
how TO use power. Most of them allow
II to use them" said DIR. James Shera
Montgomery. in his sermon last night
at the Metropolitan Methodist Church.
Mercy" he said. lis one Of the divinest
attributes OF character, and may it be
said. one Of the most difficult to ac-
Quire.
Present social conditions are indicted
at the bar of plain. simple Christian
Justice, because there is too little mercy.
Until man is regarded more than a rat
Chet in an inanimate machine We must
expect radical and destructive measures.
May the question be asked how much
personal righteousness has society and
State a right to expect of a man whose
weekly stint is seventy hours and ten
tenths of whose strength is taken to
earn his bread and pay for place to
Christ was ever turned toward the other
fellow. Yes; he should earn his daily
bread. even by the sweat of his brow,
but not by the breaking of his heart.
The man on the outside is holding the
Christian tc rigorous account: he some
times sits at the doorway and mutters
his words Of disapproval through set
teeth. What is on him? He demands
the gospel Of the warm heart and with
twentieth century blood. The world need
never be afraid of the man with a we'll
filled dinner pail. The gospel of the
other fellow not only paints roses on the
skies of the future, but calls for the in
carnation of the golden rule in the lives
OF Christian men and women"

POLAR BEARS ARE JOYFUL

There were some fine feathers OBJ

equally gorgeous feathers there.
No, this isn't meant as a Jest No

The Avenue did not get all Of the fine

OF the ending Of the Lenten season. The
Zoo was almost as much Of a prone

historic Avenue. 1t was a sort Of an

The prophesy Of the weather man came

off its new clothes. They were all there
the usual Zoo visitors-only a little more
dressed up than ordinarily.
They were there in costly Easter
clothes. There was Harry and Gertie
Harry couldn't Oxford the long coat and

gown. but they were right there with a
fancy vest and a new spring hat-and
more dressed up. at least in spirit, than
many OF the nabobs.
And don't think for a minute that the
animals didn't know II was Easter. They
were In fine fettle and received the
crowds in the most approved fashion.
The bears and the monkeys were par
ticularly pleased. They always like a
crowd. The big cinnamon bear stood UP

ostensibly to scratch his back against

diverted the crowd in a hundred ways
The sloth bear was the only one unafrect-

legs spread out and watched the others
sleepily.

Prize FOR ESSAYS
AGAINST SUFFRAGE
National Association to Give 500 to
Best One Written by City and
Country Girls.
AS JUDGES

The anti-suffrag gists, who were conspic-
uous in Washington just prior to the
inauguration by their campaign Of op-
position to the suffrage "hikers" and the
suffrage parade. yesterday announced
another move to offset the woman suf-
frage movement. Prizes of 800 each
will be given to the city and country
girls who submit the best essays demon
strating why women should not have
the vote.
Three well-known literary women Of
New York will act as judges in the con-
test The essays will be received by
the essay committee, National Associa-
ton Opposed to Woman Suffrage. at IS
West Twenty-ninth Street. New York.
Mrs, Arthur NJ. Dodge, of New York.
president OF the association. last night
said that the association had received
hundreds of letters from women in all
parts of the country explaining why
the suffrage movement appealed to them
as unwise and wrong. Mrs. Dodge said
she believed that country girls would
have a different view OF the question
than city girls. and so separate prizes
have been offered, one for the best essay
from the rural districts, and one for
the best written by town girl.

LECTURES ON TUNIs.

Pictures Of Desert.

Nox Mccain Shows Some Wonderful
Pictures Of Desert.
In the fifth and most interesting in his
series OF travel lectures at the Column
bia, Nox Mccain last night piloted q
large number of fellow-travelers through
Tunis and out into the wateriess wilds
of the Sahara. Never before has Mr.
Mccain showed still pictures more won-
derfully than those reproducing the
architectural oddities so numerous in and
around Tunis. or motion pictures more
effective in their depletion of native life
in the city and out in the desert.
Mr.. Mccain found much that was Of
interest to Western eyes in his visits to
the market place. in the activities Of the
snake charmers. who find the street an
excellent place for a performance, and in
the curious customs prevailing in the
Arab homes. While in Tunis Mr.. Nc
Cain was fortunate in securing a motion
picture Of an Arab wedding. together
with all the features peculiar to the coun-
try that go to make It a festivity very
much out Of the ordinary.
Mr.. Mccain spent some time about the
ruins Of Carthage and was successful in
obtaining many excellent views Of what
now remains Of that once great metro
polls. The ruins of the ancient amphi.
theater, which had a seating capacity OF
10000; the cistern that, although some
1000 years old. still furnishes water, and
the remains OF the famous canals proved
of especial interest.
In the gorge of El Kantara, the thresh-
old Of the desert, the motion picture
camera recorded many unusual sights as
the caravans and Bedouin herdsmen
passed through the gorge to start on
their journey across the limitless miles
of sand. In Biskra Mr.. Mccain secured
many excellent character studies of the
little known people Of tho desert. their
daily pursuits, amusements, and the like
This afternoon at o'clock Mr.. Mccain
will repeat 'Tunis and the Sahara"
which will complete his course.
