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 inflamed You have a rum
bling sound or imperfect hearing. and
when it is entirely closed, Deaf:-vss is
the result, and unless the inflamma-
tion can be taken out and this tube
restored to its normal condition, hear
ing 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

PRISON FOR SAMUEL GOMPERS
LABOR LEADERS, SENTENCE RE.
DUcED, HOWEVER.
Mitchell and Morrison Escape With
Fines in the District Of Columbia
Contempt Proceedings.

Washington, May 6.-The contempt
of court judgments against Samuel
Gompers, Frank Morrison and John
Mitchell, officials of the American
Federation of Labor, were sustained
by the court of appeals for the Dis
trict of Columbia, which, however, re-
vised the sentences to give Gompers
thirty days Imprisonment and fine
Mitchell and Morrison $500 each with
no Jail term.
The chief justice of the court dis
senting, held that the entire judgment
should be reversed. The lower court
had sentenced Gompers to one year
imprisonment, Mitchell nine months
and Morrison six months without
option of fine.
All were convicted of violating a
court injunction In the noted. Bucks
Stove and Range case, by causing the
name of the company to be printed in
the unfair" list in the official paper
of the American Federation of Labor.
The federation was fighting the
stove company, then non-union con
Germ. Since then the company has
:eorganized and employs only union
men. 1t has endeavored to have the
proceedings dropped, but without
avail.
An appeal from this decision will
he taken to the supreme court of the
United States If attorneys for the
ator leaders can find ground on
which to ask the highest court to re-
lew The judgment.
On previous appeal to the supreme
court the judgment was effectually
ismissed, and the contempt proceed
igs were. brought all over again. In
he previous action the decision of the
curt below, holding the men in con-
tempt, was unanimous. The dissent
ing opinion of the chief Justice will
probably present one avenue of fur
Their appeal.

Since May /, 1898.

K lgltt + q
Fifteen years ago the nation was
celebrating the victory of Admiral
George Dewey at Manila bay. This
important naval battle, which took
place on May /. 1898, has been re-
ferred to as the first half of the Span
ish-American war. The other half
was fought by Admiral Schley, with
Admiral Sampson s fleet, off Santiago.
Cuba, on July 4 Of the same year.
The outcome of the war was settled
in the minds of the world after that
affair in Manila bay fifteen years ago
last Thursday. 1t had been settled in
the minds of Americans previouslyto
that, but other nations, including
Spain, could not see things quite the
way we did. After Dewey's over
whelming victory it was apparent to
all that the contestants were lily
matched.
Principal interest in regard to the
battle at this date lies in the fact that
it was fifteen years ago. To few will
it seem so long. But the young SOL
der who was Is then is 40 now, and
probably good many boys bearing
the name of Dewey will be graduated
from high schools this spring
From the standpoint of general
world advancement these fifteen
years have been as prolific as any like
period in history. In 1898 the num-
Der of automobiles in the country was
decidedly limited. At the TRANSMITS
sissippi exposition, held in Omaha
that summer, visitors were invited to
take ride in one lonely automobile,
such ride being almost as much a
novelty as ride on an elephant. To-
day the automobile industry is one of
the largest and most important in the
world.
Since 1898, too, the aeroplane has
been invented and developed until one
aviator has flown almost thousand
miles in one day. The Panama canal
has been started and almost finished.
China and Portugal have become re-
publics. The north and south poles
have been discovered. Wright, Flex-
ner and Enrich have given us re-
spectively the vaccine treatment for
typhoid, the serum treatment for
spinal meningitis and salvarsan for
blood poison. Friedman perhaps
has discovered and is selling to the
world an improved treatment for
tuberculosis.
Ii the next fifteen years show as
much progress as the last fifteen the
commemoration of the the thirtieth
anniversary of the battle of Manila
will be still more interesting mile
post for "reminiscences than is the fiji
teenth. And like the last fifteen, the
coming decade and half will be gone
before we realize it.-Joplin Globe.

Will promptly turn up their noses q
the very best of dry forage that cal
be put into the manager. When forag'
is as plentiful as it is this spring
is best to keep the cattle in the yare
until the grass gets fair start.
There is a movement on foot to EN-
ploy an expert to every county to give
the farmers the latest information or
how to raise and care for crops and
live stock. This looks good on paper
and if enough expert" can be found
that are made up on the basis of nine
parts diplomat to one part expert it
may be success. "
Everything points toward a bumper
crop of apples this year. The buds
are late enough so that Jack Frost will
hardly dare come back and breathe
upon them and the trees have a hearty
look. This will be favorable season
to spray few trees Ito see how it
works."
In combining any animal, especially
a male that is used for breeding pur-
poses, it always pays to make the con-
finement strict and safe right at the
beginning, as one break out practical
ly ruins such an animal, and if he can
be confined at all after one of them it
will require much better and strong
err fence than it would have taken in
the start.
Spring is here and the man who has
horse power is lucky. Horses may
be pushed off the earth by the gas
tractor some day, but the man who
must buy one or more at present is
not finding bargains in punches.
The grain drill is a costly piece of
machinery and very easily damaged
by rusting, cracking and varying if
left out in the weather. Keep it in
shelter, unless it is actually in use,
and then try to drive it to some shed
or barn every evening after using it
in the field, or if it is not to be used
again for day or so.
The motorcycle and the bicycle may
appeal to many farmers as a sort of
joke, so far as practibility goes, but
either of them could be made to fill
an important position on ninety-nine
out of every hundred farms. They
are much quicker and easier put in
condition for whisking to town after
some much-needed repairs for the hay
tools, implements, ETC., than the team
or automobile; the trip can be made
just as quickly or little quicker and
the expense is practically nothing.

Cooperative shipping associations
are being organized in many parts of
the corn belt. Their main feature is
to give those who market less than a
carload of hogs or cattle at a time a
chance to club together and sell their
live stock at the larger markets, thus
saving the slice that goes to the local
buyer. The theory is sound and in
time will win out. There are alto
