Birds live to eat. 1t is lucky for
men they do. Some years ago French
scientist told the world that If all the
birds should suddenly die man would
have only a years life left to him and
proved his point to the satisfaction Of
other scientists.

First Game Law.

The first game law" for the protec'
ton Of wild animals and birds was en-
acted in 1868 by William the Conquer
or. This decree of the Norman king
was called a forest law. but its princf-
pal purpose was the preservation OF
game Forfeiture Of property was
made the penalty for killing or dis
abling any kind Of wild beast, while
the slayer of a stag, buck or bear, II
convicted. had his eyes put out. These
laws. Of course. applied only to the
masses. since the royalty and nobility
were permitted to kill as much as they
pleased In fact, the principal purpose
Of the pioneer "game law" was to pro-
vide sport for the few. The first par
liamentary game law in England was
passed in 1895. Game laws in Ameri-
ca have become increasingly strict OF
late years. but they were adopted too
late to save many species, notably the
buffalo, from almost complete extinc-
don.-New York World.

Deafness Cannot Be Cured


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 inflamed condition OF
the mucous lining of the Eustachian
Tube. When this tube is inflamed
you have a rumbling sound or I'M
perfect hearing, and when it is en-
tirely closed, Deafness is the result,
and unless the inflammation can
be taken out and this tube re-
stored to its normal condition hear
ing will be destroyed forever; nine
cases out of ten are caused by Ca
tarrh, which is nothing but an in

CROWNED POPE
The Ceremony Takes Place IN

A SCENE OF SOLEMNITY

The Usual Number of Foreigners Pres

count of the War.
Rome, Sept. Pope Benedict XIV
was crowned yesterday in the Sistine
Chapel of the Vatican.
The scene was one of the utmost
solemnity, but the usual plumber oi
foreigners present was greatly dimin
ished on account of the war.
The pontificate of the newly elected
sovereign officially dates from Sun
day, although he is really pope from
the hour of his election.
When he entered the Sistine Chapel
the pope was attended by Noble
Guards in new red uniforms. carrying
swords in their hands.
Except for the supreme pontiff ano
the cardinals the most interesting fig
ure in the procession was the chap
lain. 1t was he who bore the triple
crown.
