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 tho 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 Dollar:-,
for any case of Deafness (caused by
catarrh) that cannot be cured b>
Hall's Catarrh Cure. Send for circu
lars, free.

SIMPLE FAITH
A ieiM who admitted that he came
direct from state prison tried to sell
to the city editor of a New York news- ?
I wiper a weird and startling story of 11
missing will which he declared had
been revealed to him by a fellow con
vict. lie was a burly follow with a
prognathous Jaw, and he hnd last an
eye In battle. The mere look of htm
would frighten a timid citizen Into
tremors. Mr. White, the expert lu
criminology, cross examined the tuan
as follows:
"Why were you lu Auburn?"
"Highway" (meaning, of course, high
way robbery).
"1 suppose you were wrongfully con
victed."
"Nuh: dey had me right."
Such engaging candor made Mr.
White feci that the man was truthful,
and he was greatly disappointed when ;
strict Investigation disclosed the fact
that the story of the missing will was
all fictitious. The uian was disap
pointed, too. at the failure of his ro- '
ma nee. but he went away from the
newspaper office In cheerful mood,
with some remark about better luck
next l line.
A week later Mr. White was sum
moned to the rcecptloii room of thu
newspaper, and there he found his
friend, the burly highwayman, his
shoulders broader, his single eye llcrcer
than ever. I tut I Is visit was <julte
friendly, although somewhat tinged
with business. Ho evidently believed
he could rely on Mr. White's good
faith and business acumen. Fixing
Mr. White with his glittering eye. the
strong armed one plueked him by the
sleeve over to a corner of the room
and there in a loud, hoarse whisper In
quired:
"Say, couldjer do atiyt'ing wit' a cou
ple o' watches?" Harper's Weekly.
Bimini and the Fountain of Youth.
ltliiilnl was .1 fabulous island tlrtnly
itelleved In by the Indians of the An
tilles, though they could give no fur
ther clew to its location than that It
lay some hundreds of leagues north
of llispanlola. On this Island was
the famous fountain of youth, giv
ing perpetual health and vigor. It
was the search for this fountain that
led Ponce de I .eon and Hernando de
Soto to Florida, on the outskirts of
which the Island was generally sup
posed to be situated.

POWER OF WATER
When a uiuu goes In swimming at
the seashore uud slap* the water forci
bly with his liautl or takes a back ?llve
from a pier aud la nun squarely on his
back he realizes that the unstable
ll(]Ul(l offers not n little resistance.
Yet. says a writer in the New York
Tribune. It would surprise almost any
body to sec what water will do under
certain conUltions.
A stream from a llreman's hose will
kiUH-k a tuan down. The Jet from a
nozzle used In placer mining lu the
west eats uway a large piece of land
lu a day, toys with great bowlders as
If they were lobbies and would shoot
a luau over the country as though he
Were a projectile fro>:i a cannon
There Is u story o I an eastern black
smith who went west and made a bet
that he could knock a hole through
the Jet of one of these nozzles with a
sledge hammer. lie lifted his arms,
swung the sledge and came down on
the ten Inch stream with a force that
would have dented an anvil Hut t'te
Jet. never penetrated, whisked t le
massive hammer out <>f the bla< 1.
smith's hands and tossed it m -tal
hundred feet away Into the debris of
gold liearlng gravel beneath a crum
bling liltr. After this the blacksmith
left out Iron when he spoke of hard
sub tances.
Thece Is also a power plant near
l?urango, Colo., where a I'nlted Stat?*s
cavalryman one day thought he had
au easy Job In cutting a two Inch
stream with his sword. He made a
valiant attack. The result tva* that
his sword was shivered In two and
Ids wrist broken.
A little thinner Jet of water descend
lng 1.(100 feet to a manufactory at
Grenoble. Spain, and traveling at the
moderate sp?>ed of 100 yards a second
fractures the best blades of T?ledo.
Of course some people will not t .??
Ileve such stories without ha\ lng seen
the thing, and one may think It a proof
of the scientific Imagination i" sa\
that an inrh thick sheet of v ter, pro
vlded it hat) sufficient velocity, would
ward off bombshells a- well ? steel
plate.
Nevertheless many persons while
traveling have seen a 1 rakemsn put a
small hydraulic Jack under one end
of a Pullman car and lift twenty tons
or so by a few leisurely stroke* of the
pump handle, and the c\|?erlcnce of
riding every day In a hydraulic elc
vator tends to remove doubt* of the
magic power possessed by water hitch
ed to a machine.
