A Catch net. Turn round, and, with your back to the table, ask somebody to throw the dice. Then tell the person who threw them to double the number of the spots on the die on the left, and keep the number to himself. Tell him to add five, then multiply by five. To this fig ure have him add the number of spots on the die in the middle and multiply the product by ten. Then ask him to multiply the number of spots on the third die and give you the aggregate sum. From the amount subtract mentally 250, and the remain der will show In the three figures the number of spots on each of the three dice. For Instance, take three dice. Their numbers are three, five and two. Double the one on the left—five plus five equals ten. Add five, equals fif teen. Multiply by five, equals seventy- live. Add the number of spots on the die in the middle, three, equals seventy- eight Multiply by ten, equals 780. Add number of spots on the third die, two, equals 782.

Commenting on the tremendous amount of food consumed on the aver age Atlantic liner nowadays, a writer in the Springfield Republican says: “At 8 mines the monumental breakfast; at 11 the deck steward fills up the coma tose figures In the morgue with their heel’ tea from those thick, obese Eng lish cups; at 1 the magnanimous lunch eon; at 5 the sleepers assaulted by the d>*ck steward again; at 7 the awesome English dinner; at VU'flo a trifling lunch to ballast you for bed. Besides this liar- baric mounds of sandwiches, olives, cheese, crackers, perpetually stare you In the face in the smoking room. Food, food, food; th«* sight and smell of It pursue the unwilling stomach in every corner of the place; food tasted, wast ed, thrown away. There* Is one port hole on the steerage deck, from the galley apparently, which belches It forth in a continuous stream—half loves of bread, great remnants of meat: we have left a trail of it across the At lantic. If some one would only esti mate the tons of wasted food which an* annually thrown into the Atlantic or could calculate how much cheaper these steamship companies could give us our travel if they substituted plain, self respecting fare for this gilded glut tony, it would certainly be interesting and worth while.

You rail easily spend more, but $00 will buy a fairly good Norwich bred bird. The food the bird requires con sists of various delicacies in the form of rye, bread, rice, meal and vegeta bles. Canaries are liable to all sort* of ailments, and thjf, of course, neces sitates further expense, for the treat ment of these complaints Is anything but cheap. Of course, no fancier ot canaries would be content with one bird; he must have nt least a dozen, and the cost of some of these will cer tainty run to $75.

Why tlie Audience Laughed. At a public entertainment recently a conjurer had an experience which was highly comical, though quite disastrous from a professional point of view. Having produced an egg from a pre viously empty bag, be announced that he would follow up tills trick by bring ing from the bag the hen that laid the egg. This little arrangement he left to his confederate to carry out. He pro ceeded to draw the bird from the bag, hut what was his surprise on finding that the alleged hen was an ohl rooster, which strutted about the stage with rutiled feathers and offended dignity and set up as vigorous a crowing ns If It had just awakened from Its noctur nal slumbers. The whole audience shrieked with laughter, nnd the unfortunate conjurer made a bolt for the dressing room. in ih. -FOR- LIGHT and FUEL. Welsbactv Lamps, Detroit and Eclipse Gas Stoves.

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. Deaf, ness is cansed by an inflamed condition of the mucous lining of the Eustachian Tube. When this tube is inflamed you have a rnmbliug sound or imperfect hearing, aud when it is entirely olosed, Deafness is the result, and unless the inflammation 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 inflamed condi tion of the mucous surfaces.
