Great consternation was felt by the
friends of M. A. Hogarty, of Lexing
ton, Ky., when they saw he was turn
ing yellow. His skin slowly changed
cnlor, also his eyes, and he suff ered ter

advised to try Electric Hitters, the
wonderfnl stomach and liver remedy,
and he writes: “After taking two bot

remain at river ports awaiting shij)-
ment, tho coffee in iiand, which, for
various reasons, cannot go forward for
export, is roughly spoken of as hun
dreds of thousands of bags. A groat
deal of this coffee was bought by for

It Happened In a f rug 5tore.
“< hie day last winter a lady came to

cough medicine that I did not have in
stock," says Mr. C. K. Graudin, the
popular druggist of Ontario, N. Y.
“She was disappointed and wanted to
know what cough preparation I could
recommend. I said to her that I could
freely recommend Chamberlain’s Cough
Remedy and that she could take a bottle
of the remedy and after giving it a fair
trial if she did not find it worth the
money to bring back the bode and I
would refund the price paid. In the
course of a day or two the lady came
back in company with a friend in need
of a cough medicine and advised her to
buy a bottle of Chambei Iain’s Cough
Remedy. I consider that a very good

Lieutenant Commander Alexander M.
Sharp, who commanded the converted
yacht Vixen during the Spanish war,
was the first new witness of tho day.
He testified that he had first fallen iu
with the flying squadron on tho morn
ing of May 24 off Cieufuegos. He said
that tho weather on the cruise from
Cicnfuegos to Santiago had boon “squal
ly." but it had not beeu sufficiently bad
to interfere with tho sp.edof the Vixen.
The vessel had not, he said, boen in ur
gent need of coal on May 2d. “If I had
boen," he said, “and received orders to
coal, I should have tried to do so, though
it would have been an uncomfortable
job, because the Vixen was a very small
ship."
Commander Sharp said that notwith
standing he had % becn on board the
Brooklvn several * times, Commodore
Schley had never discussed with him
tho retrograde movement toward Key
West, begun on May 20.
Describing the service of the Vixen
during tho siege of Santiago under Com
modore Schley, Commander Sharp said
that he had boen placed oh picket duty
at the east eud of the line on the night
of May 29 and had continued this duty
afterward# He was about 2 mile»from
shore, he said, and probably 3 miles
from the mourh of the harbor. Ho said
the ontire fleet could not be discerned
at night and that tho shore line could
only be discerned as a black mass in the
distance.

Deafness Cannot be Cured
by local applications as they cannot
roach 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 Eus
tachiar. Tube. When this tube is in
flamed 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, hearing will be de
siroyed forever; nine cases out of ten
are caased by catarrh, which is nothing
but an inflamed condition of tho mucous
surfaces.
