DEAFNESS CANNOT BE CURED

by local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portions 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
lining Of the Eustachian Tube. When
this tube is inflamed you have a rum
bling sound or imperfect hearing, and
when it is entirely closed deafness is
the result, and unless the inflamma-
ton can be taken out and this tube
restored to it's normal condition, the
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

lars, free.

WORKERS Affected BY WIND
Bringing Of Fresh Oxygen Into Cities
Has Been Shown to Have Most
Beneficial Results.

ONCE and workship management
has. in some large businesses, been
brought practically to the point of a
science, London Answers remarks
and lots Of curious little facts have
been ascertained by those who have
studied it.
Office STATS, for instance, work best
in windy weather, as do all brain work
4ers, the reason being that in windy
weather the ordinary more or less
exhausted city atmosphere is driven
out by volumes of fresh oxygen.
There is the same difference in the
quantity and quality of work done in
Offices as there is between that done
i'm unventilated and well ventilated
workshops, and for the same reason.
No brain worker works as keenly in a
stuffy room as in an airy one.
Damp, dull weather has little or no
effect on the output of work in offices,
but it has in workshops. Manual To-
sbor Is less efficient in damp than i'll
dry air. the reason is that the moist
lair acts as conductor Of electricity
and drains away the natural electrici-
ty of the body into the ground. This
does not affect the brain, but only the
muscles and the spirits.
