Walter Hill and family of Isle au Haul,
Mrs. Annie Bragg and Mr.. Steen and
wife of St. Adams, who came Friday to
attend the funeral of Mr.. Batchelder, re-
turned to their homes March 9th.
On account of the death of Mr.. Batch
elder, the, Sunshine meeting was again
postponed. The widow of the deceased
is the faithful, efficient president OF the
society and always an active, untirlng
worker for the general good.
Nathaniel M. Batchelder, passed away
at his home IN Troy March 4th. He was
born in Troy, April 10, lS47. Although
he had been in poor health for some
years, death came suddenly and unex-
pected. His kind, unselfish nature made
! friends of all with whom he associated,
and he could not have had an enemy in
the world. Much sympathy is felt for
the sorrowing family, who deeply feel
the loss of kind, devoted husband and
father. The four daughters are Mrs.
Lemuei Reynolds, Mrs. j. L. Bagley,
Mrs. Edward Wyman of Troy and Mrs.
Walter Hill of Isle au Haul. One broth

three sisters, Mrs. Augustus Prentiss OF

duct records. About one-ffth of the
prison inmates have already taken adj
vantage of the opportunity.
There are among them men con-
demned to penal servitude for life.
The never dying hope of liberty spurs
them on. There are young fellows,
serving their first sentence, eager to
make new and better start when the
doors open for them. There are for
eigners, unable to speak English; mid
die aged men entering school for the
first time.
The roll call of the classes records
the names of murderers whose crimes
have headlined the newspapers from
one end of the country to the other.
There are thieves, gun men, lawbreak-
ers of every sort. They differ in color
and creed and nationality. and they
vary in ability and ambition. Only the
bond of ignorance do they share in
common.
Complete illiteracy characterizes
many Of them. Some have attended
the common schools for short periods.
Most of them, though, are below the
fifth grade.
All day long the three small class
rooms in the heart of the prison are
filed with changing classes. In the
halls and courtyards files Of convicts
pass each other going from school to
work. The air quivers with the drum
ming machinery, the rasp of saws, the
thud of many hammers and the end
less echoes of prison activity. Every
where are impossible walls, changing
iron doors and guards, the ever present
factors of restraint. But the classroom
seems Of another world.
Here are walls hung with gayly col
Ored maps. The desks are Uttered
with states and textbooks. Pupils
clad in cadet gray sit behind the desks.

Il CHANGE is coming, indeed 1t
"a is being inaugurated, in re-

be regarded as men who are capable
of being reformed and not as lfrecon-

idea Of protecting the community py
isolating the criminal is giving way TO
more helpful and humane methods.
Joliet prison, the state prison OF ILL
nois, may be looked upon as leader
in prison reform. Within the past lew
months it has been the scene OF some
drastic changes and innovations. and
its new methods are attracting the at
tention of penal experts all over the
country.
An important and interesting inno-
walton was the esta blishment OF Gay
school for the convicts. Night schools
had existed before in various peniten-
tiaries. but this is the first day school,
So successful has it been already, after
a few months Of existence, that SIM

Three hundred convicts in the peni-
Tertiary at Joliet are now going to
school. Taught by fellow prisoners,
these men, many of whom are gray
headed, are learning, as little children
learn, to read and write and spell.
Into the gray routine of prison life
have crept brighter hours. There Is
new chance now for the man who Is
expiating a crime by years of hard Ia
Dor. He can, if he wishes, leave the
prison better fitted mentally and NOR

were enjoyed until a late hour. Owing
to sickness and bad travelling only few
visitors came from the lodges invited to
be present.

"Some time ago / wrote you about
my little boy, Clarence, five years OF
age He was troubled with his ears.
They were very sensitive to the touch,
end he was quite deaf at times. He
seemed to be worse after catching
cold. l had taken him to doctors, but
they did net seem to be able to relieve
him, and was very much afraid he
would lose his hearing entirely. He
was getting more deaf every day.
'I wrote to you for advice, and you
prescribed Peruna. I began giving it
to him, and can now say that he is
entirely cured. He is now well and
hearty and can hear perfectly"
catarrh Causes Many Diseases.
Many diseases are caused by taking
cold. A cold is very likely to settle
in the nose, causing nasal catarrh
It may settle in the upper part OF the
throat, called the nasal pharyngeal
space. In this space are two little
tubes called eustachian tubes, that
. lead to the middle ear.
If the catarrh settles in the pharyn-
geal space it may follow the mucous
membrane through the eustachian
tubes into the middle ear. If it does
it will cause noises in the ear, and
later on be sure to cause deafness
Catarrh of the throat may follow
the eustachian tubes up into the mid
die ear without causing much concern
on the part of the patient. The par

CATARRH OF THE THROAT
Is Liable to Produce Catarrhal Deafness

tial loss OF hearing is apt to be over
looked. A person may lose half his
hearing before he knows it.
For instance, suppose man can
hear his watch four feet from the ear
If he loses his hearing to the extent
that he can only hear the tick of his
watch two feet from the ear he may
not suspect it at all. His hearing is
good enough for ordinary purposes.
He goes on without the slightest sus-
picion that he is losing his hearing.
He may have ringing in the ear. or
cracking and swapping sounds in the
ear, or a feeling of pressure in the
ear, but he is not aware that he
losing his hearing.
Testing the Hearing.
1t is a good thing to test your hear
ing with watch. First hold the
watch against your ear, then move ii
gradually away from the ear and see
how far away from the watch you
can actually hear it tick. Try it on
the other side and See if both ears
are alike. If you find that you are
unable TO hear the watch ON both sides
alike and at q distance of four feet
from the ear, you may know that
deafness has already begun. You
should begin taking Peruna at once
Gargle the throat with cold strong
salt water, as directed in the Ills OF
Life" sent free by Peruna Co, Co
lurrbus, Ohio. Persist in this treat
ment until a cure is effected.
The Best Way to Gargle.
Sometimes catarrh of the nasal
pharyngeal space will cause an &C
emulation of 5ecretions in the throat
| that completely fill the space. Unless
these secretions are promptly re-
moved by frequent gargling polypi
may be formed. Once formed the
, polypi or adenoids. as they are some
times called. will require long tin
with the gargling to remove. Gai
Cling according to the proper method
will sometimes remove polypi or ade-
noids, and no surgical operation Is
required.
In order to understand exactly what
is meant by proper gargling send for

During the whole course of gargllng
Peruna must be taken according 10
directions on the bottle.
