HOPE For sPINsTERs.

American old maids should cheer
up and not abandon hope. There is
good news for spinsters on this side
Of the Atlantic 1t is embodied in sex
statistics lately gathered in England,
statistics which show that, while there
are hundreds of thousands of super
auous women in England and Wales,
there really exists a shortage in the
United States. For every 1000 men
In East Sussex, for example, there are
1885 girls. In London there are 1,152
women for every 1000 men. The to-
tai surplus in the ranks of the gentler
sex is 1,179,276 in England and Wales.
This means that women equivalent in
number to many times the population
of Portland must die old maids in the
two countries named or else lie in
wait for widowers. In Norway and
France the lot of the old maids is lit
tie better. There are on'y 1000 hus-
bands for every 1,O69 maids to scram-
BILE for, while in France there is q
surplus of 33 women to every 1000
men. 1t is when the statistics cross
the Atlantic that the matrimonial ho-
sizon brightens. In the United States
there are full 1000 men from which
943 maidens may take their pick.
Canada is still better field of opera
ton from the spinster's point of view.

afford to be really fastidious, since

THE COMMON LAW"-Next Week.
More than common interest is being
taken in the dramatization of "THE
COMMON LAW" Robert w. Cham
bers most vivid novel which will be
seen here next week, starting Sunday
matinee.
7 The story of The Common Law is
most familiar with the masses OF fic-
tion readers as the book was more
widely read than any novel of the last
decade. 1t is the telling of the love
story between two young people, one
an artist within the loose ideas of
Bohemia pervading him, and the girl
just as much free thinker, with pro-
nounced ideas of the futility of mar
riage. She loves the artist and her
love is returned. There is third man

painter, who tries in vain to win the

DESTROY THE sToRKs
IN GERMANY THEY ARE CoNsID,
Erred ENEMIES OF SPORT.
Prejudice lie Resulting In Their Sys,
tematIc Slaughter In Parts of the
FatherIand, and the Birds Are
Rapidly Being Trimmed Out.

No one who has any delight in
Hans Andersen's tales can hear
unmoved that the stork has fall,
en- upon evil times. Four years
ago it was noticed that they were
building less on Turkish house-tops
and their diminishing numbers were
regarded by the superstitious Otto
mans as an evil omen for the future
of the race in Europe, On leaving,
Europe at the end of summer, they
seem to penetrate far down the in
terror of Africa. One that had been
caught and marked in Prussia was
captured in Natal, near Colenso.
Whether the disappearance of wild
animals from South Africa before the
advance of the settlers also affects the
storks Is question not yet settled.
/. However that may be, attention is
being drawn anew to their dwindling
numbers in Alsace, now that they are
getting ready to leave for the south.
German scientists have ascertained,
that they are also getting fewer in,
the Palatinate Hesse, and F'ranconia.
The country people are making va,
liant efforts to maintain the numbers
of their visitors by placing artificial
nests on the roofs of their houses, and
even by feeding them artificially.
But the storks in Germany have to-
contend with a prejudice most diff.
fcult to eradicate. They are looked
upon as enemies of sport. 1t Is true
that they sometimes raid the families
of hares or find their food in ponds
well stocked with fish. But the dam
age they do in this way is negligible
in comparison with the great boon
they confer on farmers by destroying
mice and moles.
If we we are to believe the German
ornithological paper. "Mitteilungen
uber die Vogelwelt," bad example
in the treatment of this useful bird
has been set in high places. The
Grand Duke of Oldenburg is said to
have given orders for the curtailing of
the number of storks in his state.
Fifty per cent. of them are to be shot
down. By depriving the female birds
of their male admirers, the Grand
Duke hopes to "cut down the birth
rate" The German paper containing
this announcement protests against a
barbarity which depriVes villages OF
their old-established guests. but II
adds that similar cases are reported
from Upper Franconia, where thu
owners of sporting estates are actual
ly compelling the peasants to remove
the storks' nests perched on their cot
tage roofs.
The paper appeals to the public tt
put stop to this work of destruction
In Alsace happily such brutal methods
are unknown. There the bird which
symbolizes such venerable traditions
is treated with universal respect

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 a
rumbling sound or imperfect hearing,
and when it is entirely closed, Deaf
ness is the result, and unless the in
fammation 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 in
famed condition of the mucous sur
faces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars
for any case of Deafness (caused
by catarrh) that cannot be cured by

publican, on the floor of the House late
to-day, resigned as a member Of the pow

that the system Of legislation establish
