His Idea*of a Good Time.
The retired contractor sighed as he
got into his dress suit and thought of
the elaborate dinner and the opera that
were to come.
“Some day,” he said, “Ill git real
desp‘rit, an then do you know what I’ll
do?”
“Something terrible, no doubt,’’.re
plied his ambitious wife.
“I s’pose it wouldn’t look well in
print,” he admitted, “but I can’t help
that. What I’ll do will he to throw
away these high-priced cigars, put on
some old clothes, go out an’ come in-by
t he back way, an ’ smoke a quarter
pound of eut-up chewing tobacco in a
cob pipe, while I’m talkin’ things over
with the coachman in the barn.”
CAMELS HARBOR HATRED.

Will Wait Until an Opportunity Ar
rives For Revenge.
The Arab who has angered a camel
will throw his clothes upon the ground,
and the infuriated beast, after stamp
ing on them and tearing them asunder
with his teeth, goes on his way, and
the driver is thereafter quite safe, as it
Beems to be an axiom with the camel
that no man shall be put in peril of life
twice for one offense.
The camel is stupid, save when angry,
and then seems to become almost pre
ternatural in carrying out its vengeful
designs. Palgrave relates the following
story of a cameFsjrevenge, which serves
to illustrate this point: “A lad of 14
had conducted a large camel laden with
wood from one village to another at a
half hour’s distance. As the animal
loitered or tupied out of the. way its
conductor * struck it repeatedly and
harder than it seemed to have thought
he had a right to do. ' But not finding
the occasion, favorable for taking imme

was not long in coming. v
“A few days later the sanie lad had
to reconduct the hea^, but unladen, to
his own village. . When they were about
half way on the road and at some dis
tance from any habitation, the camel,
suddenly stopped, looked deliberately

Deafness Cannot Be Cured
by local applications as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
There is only one way to cure deafness
and that is by constitutional remedies.
Deafness is caused by an inflamed con
dition of the mucous lining of the
Enstachain Tube. .When the tube is
inflamed you have a rumbling sound or
imperfect hearing, and when it is en
tirely closed, Deafness is the result j
and unless the inflammation can be
taken out and this tube restored to its
normal condition, hearing will be de
stroyed forbyer; nine cases out;of ten
are caused by Catarrh, which is noth
ing but an inflamed condition of the
mucous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred .Dollars
for any case of Deafness (caused by ca«-
tarrh) that cannot be cured by Half’s
Catarrh Cure. Send for circulars, free.
