MARION HARLAND'S HELPING HAND.

" was greatly interested in the letter of H. l.. A. containing advice to those who live in the silent world, for l was one of them. The silence gradually enveloped me during the course of twenty years, but now feel like shouting from the housetops. for my hearing is almost re- stored It took a good deal of faith, pa tience, and perseverance; and even the doctor did not hold out much hope and 1t took eight months of treatment after a severe nasal operation before actual re- suits were noticed For about year now my ears have been blown out four times a week; it is simple operation and l am afraid to stop just yet, for was so long getting into good condition. Nat urally it takes long time to get the hear
 ing back, but should I have to keep up the treatment for the rest of my natural life it would be worth the price. Know ing the slenderness of our purse the doc tor is very considerate on that score. Deafness is due to so many causes that probably only small per cent of the cases would respond as mine did, but hope my experience may be the means of encour- agement and restoration for others It is truly like being awakened from a living death and only those who have been there can know and understand. MRS. c"
 As the writer of this letters says there may possibly be only a few cases which would yield to such treatment as helped her. but her letter is worth publishing if only single deaf person is helped by it. l would like to point out that she had long siege before her hearing began to return, and any one who wishes to make the experiment should be prepared to a bring to 1t the faith, patience. and per- severance she exercised. For those who are not to be cured let me again urge, as I have so often done before, Me advan- tages of lip reading over any mechanical appliance for the assistance of the hear ing.

limit.
In spite OF this large delegation from
Omaha Omaha was seeking nothing.
This Is a fact OF which Omaha real estate
men are proud, that they are able to go
TO that convention from year TO year
seeking no selfish ends for Omaha, loyal
only to the association.
This year, however, members of the
delegation are returning secure in the be-
lief that when Omaha finally asks for
this convention 1t will get It with little
opposition. They declare there Is the
warmest feeling toward Omaha In the
whole association.

that large numbers of the insects

In the vicinity Of the Tygarts VAL

insects is plainly heard md large
numbers are seen daily.
Closer to the city than this. right
in the suburbs, quantities OF locusts
are seen. A few have been noticed
right in Fairmont, but very few,
and It is hoped and believed the city
proper will escape the 'seventeen-

H0U to Make Apple
Cider on Commercial Scale

Washington, Oct. The specialists
OF the fruit and vegetable utilization
laboratory Of the Department Of Agri.
culture have completed arrangements
for a commercial test Of the recently
discovered method Of concentrating
apple cider by freezing and centrifugal
methods. AS a result a cider mill in
the Hood River Valley, Oregon. will
this fall undertake to manufacture and
test on the retail market 1000 gallons
Of concentrated cider. which will rep
resent 5000 gallons of ordinary apple
cider with only the water removed.
The new method It is believed
makes possible the concentrating Of
cider in such q way that It will keep
better than raw cider and also be SO
reduced to bulk that It can be shipped
probably long distances from the ap-
ple-growing regions. The old attempts
to concentrate cider by boiling have
been failures because heat destroys
the delicate flavor of cider. Under
the new method nothing is taken from
the cider but the water, and the result
