There is only one way to cure deafness, and that is by constitutional remedies. Deafness is caused by an inflamed condition of the I mucous lining of the Eustachian Tube, i When this tube is inflamed you have a rumbling sound or imperfect hearing, and when it is entirely- closed, deafness is the result, and unless the inflammation can be taken out and this tube restored to its normal condition, bearing will be de stroyed forever; nine cases out of teu are caused by Catarrh, which is nothing but an inflamed condition of the mucous sur- I faces.

Tho little non of L.-iw Director Hogaett evidently believes that there are occasions'’ when the good citizen is justified In tak ing the law into his own hands. Every night before retiring the little chap carefully places a toy pistol beneath his pillow. Os course they have laughed at him, telling him thaj: ho might wake up some line morning and find that pistol, pillow ami all had disappeared together. For ho certainly has tho reputation of a sound sleeper. lint th,-other ■ . '4 his mother awoke and remembered t’ . something had been left unlocked in th. lower part of tho house. So she quietly stole down the stairs and attended to the errand. She was on her way back and was slowly ascending the stairs when a hoarse little whisper assailed her ears: “Who’s that?” She looked up quickly, and there on tho top step, outlined against tho gloom, stood a tiny white figure. And the figure’s arm was outstretched, and in the small hand was a gleaming toy pistol. Os course ho knew her as soon as she spoke and was presently back in bed again, with his precious shooting iron be neath his head. At tho table next morning he gravely remarked: “It was a mighty lucky thing for you, mamma, that you spoke when you did.” —Cleveland Plain Dealer. Dally Life of the Busy Actress. Tho actress has little time for social life. The more successful she is tho less leisure she has and the greater inroads her work makes upon her time and strength. It is often a genuine regret to have to decline much of tho delightful hospitality extend ed to her, but this is a denial she must urge upon herself, according to her own good judgment, whether it must always be work first and play afterward. She has no right to come to her evening’s work fagged and tired from a round of teas and calls. She injures herself and her art, and . she is not dealing fairly with her audience. She is up late every night, and, although I do not ix'lieve in wasting a whole morn ing In bed, she cannot have more than sufficient sleep if she breakfasts at 10, and if sho is wise she will take a rest before her early dinner. She must remember that her health and strength mean every thing to her. —Viola Allen in Ladies’ Home Journal. Pitts’ Carminative is pleasant to the taste, acts promptly, and never fails to give satisfaction. It carries children over the critical time of teething, and is the friend oi anxious mothers and puny chil dren. A few doses will demonstrate its value. E. H. Dorsey, Athens, Ga., writes : “I consider it the best medicine I have ev er used in my family. It docs all you claim for it, and even more.” The Lawlessness at Griffin. The business men of Griffin are acting wisely in taking prompt and energetic measures to -tamp out the lawlessness which cropped out there a few days ago- When the members of the lawless gang art discovered it will be found doubtless that they are mtn and boy- who have nothing at stake in the community, and who are compara tively worthless as citizen-. Such characters, by underlai n g, in secret and under cover of darkness, to I discipline law-abiding citizens or to drive them from their h rms, i ar, do the city a vast amount of harm.

The kidneys are responsible for more sickness, suffering, and deaths than any oth : organs of the body. A majority of the Ills afflicting people today is traceable to kidney trouble. It pervades all classes of society, in all cli mates, regardless of age, sex or condition. Tn '-’mptonas of kidney trouble are un mistak T , c uch as rheumatism,neuralgia sleep!*--, acta, pain or dull ache in the back a desire to urinate often day or night, pro fuse or scanty supply. Uric acid, or brick-dust deposit in urine are signs of clogged kidneys, causing pois oned and germ-filled blood. Sometimes the heart acts badly, and tube casts (wast ing of the kidneys) are found in the urine, which if neglected will result ig Bright’s Disease, the most dangerous form of kid ney trouble.
