CATARRHAL DEAFNESS

is a constitutional remedy. Catarrhal
Deafness is caused by an infiamed con-
dition of the mucous lining of the Eusta-

you have a rumbling sound or imperfect
hearing, and when it is entirely closed

OCOOOOOOON~1O
MR.. BOWSER
STARTS REFORM
But 1t Is Worse Than the
Evil He Would Cure.
By M. QUAD.
BY M. QUAD.


Nothing so irritates Mr.. Bowser as
TO have the street peddlers go up
and down, in front of his house, yell
ing their wares, and, on many occa-
sions, he has gone out and quarreled
with them, but he has found them
claiming their rights, their licenses
from the city permitting them to yell.
The other night, as Mr.. Bowser sat
reading, a vegetable peddler stopped
at his gate and kept calling out, for
five long minutes. He had voice
like a hand-saw trying to saw
spike in two, and it must have made
other people nervous. Mrs. Bowser
feared that there would be riet, and
she began to drum on the piano, to
distract Mr.. Bowser's attention. 1t
was in vain, however He rose up
with the exclamation:
'By thunder, woman, do you think
| am going to stand that?"
He will go home, presently" an
swered Mrs. Bowser, drumming louder
than before.
"Stop that Internal racket! Isn't it
bad enough to hear that fellow yell?
| am going out and kill him. He is
the one of all the ones who make
this trouble. Just listen to his
voice! Why, it would scare baby to
deathi"
"Mr. Bowser, just wait one minute
and he will drive on"
II won't wait one blamed second
Don't you come out and mix in /! There
will be gore flying around, and ' may
also tip his wagon over and kill his
horse!"
Mr.. Bowser rushed down the hall
and out of doors. He was bare-headed
and wore his dressing gown. The
peddler had not moved on. He was
in comfortable position, and he was
going to yell as long as he wanted to.
He saw Mr.. Bowser coming out, and
he called and he shouted:
II have got them! Do you want
some string beans? They are on a
string! / have onions and potatoes
and cucumbers! l have some of the
incest celery here that king ever
chewed on! Oh--oh-oh Come and
buy!"
Mr.. Bowser came! And he had
ground glass in his voice, as he said:
"Look here, old Teller, you want to
quit this If you don't, am going to
murder you'll"
Say, old party, what ails you?"
"I'll show you what ais me! If
you holler again, therell be blood
shed !"
"Come, now, but / got to holler, or
the folks won't know / am here. You
wouldn't have known 1 was here.
am only making my living and you
shouldn't object. Is it my voice you
complain OFF,
"Of course I complain about it,"
answered Mr.. Bowser. ut is the worst
voice in the United States!''
"Pll tell you what is the trouble
with my voice. Mr. Bowser, for, you
see, l know you. / was fool enough
to bet five dollars that / could put a
billiard ball in my mouth put it there,
but i could not get it out again. The
doctors worked at me for two days,
and they knocked out most of my
