Deafness Cannot be Cured 1.). local applications, as they cannot res,. h the diseas- ed portion of the ear. There is only one way to cure deafness, and that is by constitutional remedies Deafness Is caused by an inflamed condition of the mucous lining of the Eustachian Tube. When this tube Is inflamed you have a rumbling sound or im- perfect hearing, and when it is entirely closed, Deaf- ness is the result. and unless the inflammation can be taken out and this tube restored to Its normal condi- tion, hearing will be destroyed forever; nine cases out of ten are caused b • Catarrh, which is nothing but an inflamed condition on of the morons surfaces We will gip a One hundred Dollars for any case of Deafness (caused by catarrh) that cannot to cured by Halla Catarrh Cure.

Perhaps It is in the blood of the Dutch child, says a writer in a1. A. 1'., not to fall into a canal. At all events the Dutch mother never appears to anticipate such a possibility. One can Imagine the average Eng- lish or American mother trying to bring up a family in a house surrouud- ed by canals. She would never have a momeat'a peace until the children were in bed. But then the mere sight of a canal to the Englistr child sug- gests the delights of a sudden and un- expected bath. An Englishman inquired of a Dutch- woman, "Does u Dntch child ever by any chance fall into a canal':" "Yes," she replied, "cases have been known. "Don't you do anything for it?" con- tinued the questioner. "Oh, yes," she answered. "We haul them out again." "But what I mean is," explalned the Englishman, "don't you do anything to prevent their falling in -to save theta from falling In again?" "Yes," she answered, "we spank them." n Calealatlag the Distance of a Storm. Although ligbtntug and thunder QC - cur e -cur always simultaneously an inter•:+.;1 of shorter or longer duration is usual- ly observed between these two phe- nomena, which is due to the fact that sound travels only at the rate of 1,100 feet per second, while the passage of light Is almost instantaneous. Based upon this fact, It is an easy matter to tell, at least approximately, how many miles a thunderstorm is away. A nor- mal pulse will beat one stroke to the second, and by counting the pulse beats during the Interval of the light- ning and the thunder the lapse of sec- onds eronds is arrived at and consequently the number of feet, which cau be re- duced to miles. For example, 1t thirty seconds elapse between the flash of the lightning and the crash of thunder the storm center is at a distance of 33,000 feet or about six and one -halt miles. An almost ac- curate calculation can be mode by us- • Ing a watch with a minute dial. The Parisian Cato Carleatartst. Arnung other Parisian types describ- ed by a recent observer is the cafe cari- ceturist. "He is a youth with a pale fate and very long Bair. He looks the type of the bohemian and he is. He offers to drew caricatures for 50 cen- tiuter (10 cents). His luncheoe is fre- quently a myth, nor is be strays sure of his dinner. But. to matter what the state of his finances, he will have his absinth, to which he adds but little water. The cafe caricaturist L invert ably an 'artist who has not succeeded' He has either been at the Beaux Arta or has studied under some famous painter. Somehow or other he has come to grief and has swelled the ranks of those whom fortune has disinherit- ed." The Wale. of a ranee.

The rxperimentcrs deserve much credit for the good work which they have done. not only for themselves, but for the fanners generally. Average results of the carefully corducted co-operative ex- periments wlta autumn sown crops are here presented in very concise form. Winter Wheat -Four varieties of win fr- wheat were distributed last •autumn to those farmers who wished to teat some of the leading varieties oa their own farms. The average yields p:r 'pro of straw and of grain are aa fol- ;o'••s,-Imper'al Amber, 1.4 tons. 24.1 bush.: Abundance. 1-.8 tons, 23.11 bush.: Butgartan, 1.2 teas, 21.9 bush.: N'gger, 1.4 tons. 21.9 bush. The imperial Amber gave the gr.rat- c.lt yield per acre in the co-operative experirn'•nts throughout Oi.tarla In 1907 19oe. and 1(49. It was also first in poeuldrlty t!.e.ae years. and will again be distributed this year. Dawson's Gol- den C.aff wai distributed for twelve years but r.ot the last three years. Af- ter careful enquiry we find it Is still the most popular and roust extensively grown variety In Ontario. Fertilizers With Winter Wheat.- 'n the co-operative Experiments with dif- ferent terttit:ere applied to the Winner wheat. the average. yields of grain per acre tor five years are .as follows - Mixed Fertilizer. 25.2 bus., Nitrate of Soda. 23.9 bus.: Muriate of Potash..'_ it bus.: a::d Superpnosphates 22.7 buts.; Tnc unfertilized laud gave an average of 19.1, tug. per acre. The Superano tp^ate was applied at Cie rate of 320 pou':ds and the 'duriate of Potash and the Nit- rate of .Soda each 111.) pounds per Acre. Tho aimed Fertilizer consisted of one- third of the quantity of each of the oth- er three fertilizers here mentioned. Th' usual cost of the te'tllizcrs AS used in title experint"nt Is between four and five dollars per acre. Fodder Crops. -In each of six years. the seed of Hairy V. tehes and of Win- ter Rye has been distributed through- out Ontario for co-operative ezperlm"nts PI testing these crops for fodder pur- poses. In the average of six years' ex- periments, the Hairy Vetches produ^.ed slightly the largest yield of green fod- der per acre, but in 1909 the largest yield was produ-ed by the winter (rye.

VALUE OF ADVERTISING.-Advertis trig familiarizes people with your product -even 'he old style advertising will do `hat. But advertising, aa practised by experts to -day, does infinitely more than that. Simple. concise and plain sentences explain your product and its merits -advertising brimful of human 3.- terest-advertlstng that rings true will create a preference for any article un- der the sun. Then its up to the pr,rluctt to make good. There's a new buyer for your product or a similar one born ev- ery minute. Its the new buyer you must Interest. The growth of your bust nes.-the maintenance of your position as a manufacturer or merchant or deal- er of any kind depends on that new buy er and the worthiness o' your product. Wouldn't it be good common sense to apply sane business logic to advertising? Its no magician's wand. But it is the greatest 'actor In the development of business the genius of our commercial age has evolved. Train your guns on the consumer and let the other fellow worry about the money that 1. wasted Int advertising'.
