A Trick of the Spice
Trade

There are tricks in all trades,
so we have all been told for
years. A trick of the spice
trade, is to use off-grade, inn
mature spices for grinding This
is the practice of about nine out
of every ten spice grinders. We
believe we were the first Pacific
Coast Spice House TO use exclu-
sively first quality spices for
grinding. Our profits are lowered
by this practice-but our patron
age is brOadened. So our loss
is in reality a gain. If first
quality spices are your desire,

CATARRHAL DEAFNESS CANNOT
BE CURED

by local applications. as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
There is only one way to cure ca
tarrhal deafness, and that is by a
constitutional remedy. Catarrhal
Deafness is caused by an infiamed
condition of the mucous lining of the
Eustachian Tube. When this tube Is
infiamed you have a rumbling sound
or imperfect hearing, and when it is
entirely closed, Deafness is the re-
suit. Unless the Inflammation can be
reduced and this tube restored to its
normal condition, hearing will be de-
stroyed forever. Many cases of deaf
ness are caused by catarrh, which is
an infamed condition of the mucous
surfaces. Halls Catarrh Medicine
acts thru the blood on the mucous
surfaces of the system.
We will give One Hundred Dollars
for any case of Catarrhal Deafness
that cannot be cured by Halls Catarrh

"Therei" Peter complained. "Now
you're sore. Didn't l tell you the other
day the foolishest thing a chap could
do raj to take things seriously, es-
pecially out loud?"
"You're-horrid I"
The adjective was childish; but
Lydia wasn't In a mood to search for
one more dignified. She turned a frosty
shoulder to the young man; but the
seed of suspicion had been planted in
the mind of one who couldn't forget
how lightly Betty had confessed to
prior exploits in the gentlewomanly
art of smuggling, and her laughing con-
fession that nothing but sheer fright
would prevent her attempting again to
outwit the custom house.
And even while this memory was
troubling her the affair took a turn to
fix doubt of Betty firmly In Lydia's
mind.
1t began with the return of the In
spector, accompanied by the custom
house official in charge of the pier-a
middle-aged man, this one, with a
rather consequential manner, gold
trimmed eyeglasses, and a not unkindly
expression.

Hace muchos, muchos amos
cuando los dias Sc estaban acor.
tando mas y mas, ell pueblo temia
que ell sol dejase de brillar; asi fut
que Sc reunieron bajo un gran ro-
bic, consagrado al dice Thor, el
dios de la guerra y ell trueno.
Un joven viajero que recorria
Alemania y notaba altares bajo los
arboles, en- los cuales las gentes
ofrecian sacrifcios a su dios, Sc re-
solvi6 consagrar su vida impair
tiendo enseIanza a aquellos.
Muchos amos pas6 ensefiando y
predicando, pero pocos abandona-
ron su religion. Una noche fra
de invierno, cerca del fin del afio,
Sc dirigio al bosque en- ell que el
pueblo sofia congregarse para
efectuar SUI celebration; y estaban
al ofrecer sacrifcio bajo el To-
nante Roble, que Sc creia guarda-
do por ell poderoso Thor.
AL pie del Roble Tonante ardia
un brillante fuego, y en- el centro
Sc encontraba arrodillado un j6.
ven que iba a ser sacrificado a
Thor. Eh ell centro de la multi
tud de paganos, Winifredo, nues-
tro joven, principle talar ell arbol;
y mientras mas cortaba, los pre-
sentes esperaban por momentos
que Sc desatase la C6lera de Thor
y le diera muerte.
Pero el sigui6 en- su tarea y las
astillas yolaban por todas parties
De pronto Sc oyo un ruido las ra-
mas, el arbol giml6 y, con un te
rrible estrepito, cay6 al suelo, par
lido en- cuatro parties.
Pero detras del viejo arbol Sc
veia un pequefio abeto frondoso,
como 81 hubiese brotade del mis-.
molugar que ell viejo roble habia
ocupado. Derecho y gracioso era
ell abeto, con sus ramas enhiestas
hacia los cielos. "iMirad!"-ex.
clamo ell j6ven-"este arbolito es
el nino del bosaue. Sera vuestro
arbol; es ell arbol de la paz pues
