DEAFNESS CANNOT BE CURED
by local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portions of the ear
There is only one way to cure deaf
ness, and that is by constitutional
remedies. Deafness is caused by an
inflamed condition of the mucous lin
ing of the Eustachian Tube. When
this tube is inflamed you have a
rumbling sound or imperfect hearing,
and when it is entirely closed, Deaf
ness is the rseult, and unless the in
flammation can be taken out and this
tube restored to its normal condition,
hearing will be destroyed forever;
nine cases out of ten are caused by
Catarrh, which is nothing but an in
flamed condition of the mucous sur
faces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars
for any case of Deafness (caused by
catarrh) that cannot be cured by
Hall's Catarrh Cure. Send for circu
lars, free.

I A Woman Hater. ?
? ?
(Copyright, 1WS. by Amorlcan Pr??? A??o
clatton.]
A. crusty old bachelor told me this.
He ought to be ashamed of himself:
"Dear," said young Mrs. Herkimer,
"what did you mean by saying to
Tom Fowler that you arc a woman
hater? He'll tell his wife, and It will
get all over town."
"Well, sweetheart, It doesn't matter
to you, ho long as I don't hate you."
"Yea, It does. Every woman wishes
her busband to be liked by other wom
en." Of course your sa.vlug such a
thing will make you dreadfully un
popular."
"It can't be helped now. The deed
Is done. Fowler, I know. Is a dread
ful gossip. 1 suppose I'll soon get cut
right and left."
"Indeed you will. And what will
people think of me? They will nat
urally Infer that you have derived
your bad opinion of our sex from me."
"I shall continue to show them by
my treatment of you that you are the
only one of the lot I love."
The next evening Mr. and Mrs. Bob
Herkimer went to Mrs. Ellis' recep
tion. When they returned and were
preparing for rest Mrs. Herkimer, do
ing her hair, said:
"Bob, I was standing among a group
tonight when you passed with Gertrude
Leo. A woman near me, not knowing
I was your wife, sRld:
"There goes that horrid Herkimer.
He avows himself a woman hater. Ho
should be rend out of society."
"The lady's age?" asked Herkimer
Imperturbably.
"About flftv."
"Married or single?"
"Single."
"Name, please."
"Miss Susan .Tones."
"Miss Jones doesn't count with me.
She Is aggressive, ambitious and, above
all, very smart."
"That's the worst of it She will say
lots of bright things against you."
"Well, dear, I'll have to endure It.
Uood night. I'm tired and sleepy."
The Herklniers were "out" a good
deal, and Mrs. Herkimer was much
troubled about au evident change In
her husband's position. Several wom
en whom lie had known gave htm the
cut direct, while others spoke to him
when they met him very coolly.
"You see." said his wife, "the folly
of your Indiscretion."
"I have not yet been cut by any wo
rn a u whose opinion I value. Most of
them are old maids, and none of them
Is of an especially feminine typo
Mrs. Montague is the mother of a fami
ly. but she Is more Interested In the
extension of the vote to women than
the Interests of her children. Mrs.
Tweed Is engaged In lighting he^brot It
ers and sisters over her lato father's
will. Mrs. Arbuckle Is using Mrs
Tweed to help her Into society. I'm
waltlug for a woman to cut me who Is
a real good, lovely woman."
"You'll And plenty of them In time."
"Very well, sweetheart; slnco you
are so distressed about It I'll see what
I can do to get myself liked again."
"Will you attempt to placate the wo
men you have mentioned?"
"By no means. 1 shall attempt to
overbalance their opinion by making
friends with the most attractive."
Mrs. Herkimer mantalned a profound
silence for several minutes. Then she
said:
"Perhaps you had better let the mat
ter drop. They will find a new sub
ject to talk about soon."
"You are the one to decide that mat
ter, sweetheart. It is you who are
sensitive o\ er my disgrace, not I.
Since you wish It I will take no ac
tion."
A few months later Mrs. Herkimer
said In au Impressive, measured tone
to her husband at the breakfast table.
"Bob. I have concluded to 'regret' all
Invitations for the balance of the ytar."
"Why so. sweetheart?" looking up.
surprised, from his paper.
"For some time past 1 have noticed
that certain women of our set are en
deavoring to attract your attention."
"You don't mean It!"
"Yes. I do. and I don't like It."
"Do you blame uie?"
"Not at all. They are making a dead
set for you."
"You must l>e mistaken. That gos
siping Fowler gave me a social black
eye by spreading my talk about being
n woman hater."
"U-m."
"Welir
"It didn't work Just the way I
thought It would. It's true ccrtaln.wo
men wore very bitter against you, but
tliey were mostly of our higher (trade
of women. Intellectually considered.
I've been surprised to find that the
women who covet attention have been
swarming about you like so many dis
gusting bees."
"Oho!"
"The way Lucy Turnlee palavered
over you at the Ashtons' last night
was simply ludicrous. Her simpering,
the way she rolled her eyes and, heav
en knows, what flattery she gave you
with that disagreeable tongue of hers
were enough to make one ill. She's
the sixth woman I've noticed making
herself ridiculous about you, and, I
confess, it annoys me."
"You surprise me. I hadn't noticed
anything. How do you account for it?
What's their came?"
"It all came of that ridiculous speech
of yours about being a woman hater.
In the first place, any woman likes to
get where no other woman can get.
'These crazy things wish to be the only
exception among a class you hate,
first, to satisfy their own conceit, and.
second, they think It tftves them
eclat." ,
He burst Into a laugh and took her

Humor and Philosophy
By DUNCAN M. SMITH
FOR THE NEW YEAR.
Be It resolved?
That It 1h honest to pay one's debts;
also more comfortable \rben the money
can be spared.
That the water wagou is n safe,
sane and conservative place upon
which to perch and one from which a
man may with both pleasure and profit
preach and philosophize, but that as n
place for havInK a hilarious time Its
credentials are discredited.
Tjat a bird and a bottle at night
calls for u dish of cold regret In the
morning.
Thut a stitch at U p. in. saves a rip

That the keeping of a diary Is a
most excellent practice. It cultivates
observation and continuity and n me
thodical habit. It Is also a matter that
provokes (he hllorlly of the flippant
minded when It Is produced as evi
dence In court.
That patience Is an estimable quality
to cultivate: oue's friends will appre
ciate the cultivation thereof and no
doubt draw the conclusion that one's
splrU Is broken and proceed nt once to
even up for many a slight that one
never knew existed.
That kindness Is likewise a virtue to
be cultivated. It should be extended
to all oue's friends and acquaintances,
especially to those who have In the
past been particularly active In getting
In one's way. Friends will probably
shake mournful heads and murmur
among themselves. "Poor fellow, he Is
not the man he once was!" But never
mind? be kind, be kind.
