THREADING THE BEATEN PATH
Mistake Made by Many 10 to Think
They Have Discovered All Things
Along tho Route.

Most OF US grow weary at times of
what we call the beaten path. We
have trod II so often that we imagine
we know It's mileposts by heart and
believe that with eyes and ears closed
to what is going on about us we could
tell In q moment our whereabouts.
This may be true to O degree. but
such intuition Is not given to every.
one. and sometimes even to those who
really think they have explored all the
byways OF the great path OF life many
things are yet undiscovered. II all
really Is q question OF our own abil.
fty to appreciate and use to our ad.
vantage such conditions as influence
our individual lives. OF course. II we
have no desire beyond attaining a
purely worldly success we limit our
possibilities Of enjoying life to its
highest degree, because material sue
cess 10 not everything In this world
1t is very good, to be sure, and very
satisfying in a way, but even those
who can bear personal testimony to
Its many advantages are the first to
admit that wealth and high worldly
position do not comprise the sum total
OF happiness. We must have an inner
life. a consciousness OF the existence
OF something better and higher than
the world affords, before we can
really deem ourselves wholly blessed
And that realization Is often easier
obtained by the man who has little OF
nothing OF the worlds blessings than
by his more fortunate brothers who
bask in It's smiles.

RETURN TO NORMAL HEARING
Correspondent Of New York Newspa-
per Tells Of Good Results Of
Rubbing tho Scalp.

! For some years Ind been under
the impression that washing the
scalp or using tonics for the hair was
bad, for the reason that Il was
thought to have a tendency to In
crease deafness, and when I read
your correspondents letter on the
treatment OF deafness by means Of
manipulation OF the scalp and the use
OF tonics In connection Herewith
was at nrst rather doubtful about tho
efficiency OF the treatment But final
ly tried the plan, and am glad 90 say
that II brought surprising results.
writes q correspondent OF the New
York Sun.
But what I cannot understand In
why . wet scalp and rubbing should
restore normal hearing. I cannot &c
count for II. After trying the scheme
discontinued the rubbing and use
OF the tonic, with the result that the
hardness OF hearing returned; and
with the resumption OF the treatment
i was again relieved. For many years
could not hear ordinary conversation
with my left ear, but with the use OF
the above treatment the hearing IN
that ear became normal
Il would be highly interesting &c
learn what explanation ear special
ists have to give for this phenomenon
and whether It can be utilized In the
treatment Of all cases OF deafness. OF
whether It is only good for some spe
cial or particular cases. The habitual
use OF coffee does not appear TO BE
harmful In my own case.
