Deafness Cannon Be Cured

Deafness Cannot be Cureu
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 infIamed condition OF
the mucous lining of the eustachian
tube. when this tube is inflamed
you have a rumbling sound or Inn
perfect hearing, and when 1t is en-
tirely closed, Deafness is the result,
and unless the inflammation can be
taken out and this tube restored to
its normal condition, hearing VIII
be destroyed forever; nine cases out
of ten are caused by catarrh, which
is nothing but an inflamed condi-
ton of the mucous surfaces.

MARKET REPORT.

Kansas City Stock Yards, Jan. 10.
"A revival Of 10 to 10 cents in fed
steer trade last Wednesday failed to
stick, the market on the heavier kind
showing some softness at the end Of
the week: Below the middle grades
feeder buyers are sharp competitors
for everything, a condition that -
closing up the range on fed steers,
nearly everything selling now' be-
tween $500 and $500. Butcher grades .
remain firm, and stock cattle and
feeders, though losing a little bloom
the last days of the week, finished Z
fully steady with close of previous
week. Receipts of cattle here today
are $4,000 head, and the market is q
repetition of recent sessions weak
on the upper half of the fed steers,
firm on cows, heifers and butcher
grades, shade higher on feeders and
stock cattle. Nothing toppy in fed
steers is here today, though large &
share of the run is steers from feed :
lots. The best ones here today sold
at $3.50, though prime steers would
go up to $500 or better. Feeders
sold at $7.75 today, showing the faith
of country buyers in the talk of the
trade that the real cattle shortage
has not been uncovered yet. Thin
heifers for feeding brought $500 to
S6.4O for tops last week. Coloralo.
feeders reached $3.50. Fifty-six cars
of guarantees came in today, selling
from $500 to $40 for the steers, the
Gatewood steers from Cleburne sell .
ing at the top. Steers weighing from.
1000 pounds upward bring 800 or.
more. The main element of Weak
ness today is a run Of $4,000 cattle
in Chicago. at which place buyers
complain bitterly of the quality of
the offerings, indicating broad liQui-
datiOn.
Prospects for a big Monday run OF
hogs started a weakness Saturday,
and realization of the forebodingsofs
Saturday in a run of $4,000 hogs at
Chicago, injected some more real
weakness into the market today, Top
hogs brought 1925 today, bulk 500
to $7.2O. Future markets will depend
on the size Of runs at the markets, .
as the trade is poised on a delicate
pivot. Receipts here today are 5000
head, two thousand above the first es
innate.
Sheep and yearling are steady to-
day but lambs have receded a little
from the crazy market Of last Thurs
day, when 1890 yas paid. Top lambs
today brought $500, yearlings' worth
up to $500, wethers $500, ewes today
at $3.50. Receipts here today are 49,
900 head, showing that a good deal Of
Scurrying was done by owners to get
under the high price wire. The Monte
Vista district in Colorado is shipping
freely, but no other territory is apt
to furnish burdensome supplies at this
iuncture.

SHE HAD TWO PERSONALITIES

An hysteria case similar to that Of
Miss Beauchamp Of Boston. who had
three distinct personalities, two more

naughty, was described recently by
Doctor William Brown in a lecture at
Kings College.
Doctor Browns case was also a pa

for months had two personalities. A
and B.
B was a gay, pleasure loving girl, o
constant thorn in the flesh Of her staid
and sober minded second conscious
ness, A. AS gloomy outlook, which
kept her In a general state Of low
health, was being constantly further
depressed by her receipt in waking up
in the morning Of frivolous notes writ

By the use Of hypnotism Doctor
Prince was able, at first temporarily
and finally permanently, to merge the
two diverse personalities A and B into

SENATE BOWS To
WISHES Of WILSON
LIVE STOCK, WHEAT AND OATS GO
ON THE FREE LIST.
FIRST DECISION REVERSED
Simmons Gives Reasons Inquisitorial
Clause Of Underwood Bill, De-
signed to Prevent Underval-
alton, the Trouble.

MISUNDERSTANDING its former &C
ton in voting to place wheat flour, oat'
meal and fresh meats on the dutiablt
list, the senate finance subcommittee il
charge of the agricultural schedule voted
late Tuesday to place live stock, wheat
and oats on the free list.
This action, it was au~thoritatively
stated, was taken to meet the views OF
President Wilson, Senator Simmons
chairman of the finance committee, and
other administration leaders, who dis.
approved the decision announced to tax
meats ten per cent, compensatory to a
duty on cattle in the Underwood bill,
and to assess a compensatory duty on
both flour and oatmeal. The vote to
reconsider was taken in the sub-qam-
mittee on a motion made by Senator
Simmons, ex-officio member of all the
subcommittee handling the various tar
i'll schedules, when he returned to the
capitol from q conference with the
president.
In this enlargement Of the free list
President Wilson is known to have taken
a leading part, as he did in the matter
of raw wool and sugar. As he still is
standing uncompromisingly for the wool
and sugar schedules, so, it is declared,
he will stand firmly for free cattle, sheep
and hogs and free wheat and oats, now
that this has been determined upon as
the party policy.
When the subcommittee tentative
action was announced the senator went
Immediately to the White House.
II told the president" he said later,
that members of the finance committee,
in informal conference had agreed that
there should not be a tax on meats and
flour. 1t was true that the subcom-
mittee had taken different action. but
| informed the president that the ma
Jorlty OF the lnance committee felt and
said we would vote instead to place
cattle and other live stock and wheat
and oats on the free list. This Presi-
dent Wilson agreed to, and said it would
be all right"
THE matter is settled now," said SEN
ator Simmons, "and that is the way the
schedule win 90 to the senate"
The inquisitorial clause of the Under
wood bill, which aroused foreign protest,
has been giving the Williams sub-com-
Eittee considerable trouble, and in try
ing to work out a modification of its
provisions they have had the aid of
Secretary McAdoo, Secretary Bryan and
John Bassett Moore, counsellor of the
state department.
