Betterino the World.

If the world we live in is unsatis.
factory you may say 1t is the will Of
God that 1t should be so. That gets
you nowhere, You may say it is the
law of nature it should be So That
gets you nowhere. either. But when
by accurate measurement Of lengths
and weights and temperatures and
modes Of motion you understand that
everything is what 1t is because Of
process then it comes to you that what
process has made process can make
over. Then If you like not the fashion
Of this world you can alter it. 1t may
well be that the possession of a small,
round grain of faith enables one to
say unto this mountain, "Be thou re-
moved and he thou cast into the sea-"
but If you want it done you lay down
tracks, put locomotives and gondola
cars on them, install steam diggers at

Deafness Cannot Be Cured

by local applications, as they cannot

There is only one way to cure deaf

of the Eustachian Tube. When this
tube is inlamed you have a rumbling
sound or imperfect hearing. and when

result, and unless the Inflammation

Clothed by the Year.

At one time tailors used to help a
man to dress cheaply by taking back
his old clothes. An advertisement in

that "gcutlemen can, if they choose, be
dressed by contract. Two suits per

Life of an Arctic Sealer.

The arctic Sealer has a very hard
life Sealing does not consist only of
scrambIiug over ice fields in search Of
prey and battling brcathlessly and
Gorrply when it is found. There are
many incidental hardShips to endure.
The usual type Of arctic weather Is
a dense, lung clogging fog, with cold
that is enough to freeze a glowing
furnace This fog, strange as it may
seem is oftentimeS mixed with cruel
bizEardS of heavy snow, made more
terrible Ivy high and constant gales.
The passing of the snow is usually
accompanied hy sleet and rain that are
more penetrating than snow. Misery,
therefore, is not an unfamiliar visitor
to the crews of arctic sealers.-Detr0it

Rinos on OYSTER Shells,

A popular theory about rings on an
oyster shell being an indication Of its
age is not supported by the careful in
vestigaton Of Miss Ann L. Massey, who
tested specimens from the oyster sta.
tion at Ardf"y, at the head Of Galway
bay. 1t has been supposed by many
that each ring, or group, on the oysters
deep valve stood for years growth.
But Miss Massey says that this deduc.
tion is not reliable. After a patient
scrutiny of over COO samples of various
ayes, from eighteen months to six
years, she says: AN oyster of eight
cen months or two summers appears
to possess at least two rings, but may
have as many as five. One Of three
Summers has at least two rings and
may have six A four-year-old oyster
may have only three rings or may pos

dates offering for the position the one
who in their judgment would best fill
the requirements Of the office. In

enemies to punish but will put forth
every effort to be q servant of the
whole people, regardless Of who did
or did not vote for me.
While Tax Collector | have endeav-
ored to do my duty at all times and
render efficient, courteous and accu-
rate service. As Clerk Of the Circuit
Court | shall also aim to give prompt
personal and satisfactory attention to
all matters coming within the scope
Of the office.

ton of the high honor conferred upon
me on June 9Th. and assuring you that
shall do all in my power to merit
your appreciation and goodwill, | re-
main.
