was carried to England, where. se man
who bought hardware, thread; fiirni-
tun, vegetables, "en gros," or in large
quantities, called himself an "engros-
ser:" This was . later shortened to
£IgroeerP hilt the term was still ape
ied to .the proprietor of a general
usiness. This grocery was a sort
f racket -shop, like the modern ten-
ent store.
Gradually, it appears, the "grocer,"
found it more profitable to deal in tea,
coffee, spices, fruits, and non-perish-
able foodstuffs, and he cornered his
attention to these things. He took
over the business of the°"spicer"—and
• in France the shop which we call a
rocery is still known as an "epicerie."
o far was the original meaning of
'the term lost sight of that a man who
deals exclusively in fresh vegetables
game to be known as a "green. grocer."
The dealer in foodstuffs has not I
long been a grocer. Out on our Wes-
tern frontier the saloon was formerly
.known as the grocery. It seems
strange to read in the •border letters:
f 75 years ago, "the groceries are the
curse of our camp." Perhaps the pro-
prietor of such a place adopted that
ane as a blind for his relatives back
gin the States --but this is a mere sup
osition.

Miss Jeanette Rankin. This is her
dascription as given by a New York
orld writer:

some thirty years ago. Her father

Catarrhal Deafness Cannot Be Cured

There is only one way to cure catarrh

When this tube is inflamed you hear

flammation can be reduced and this
tube restored to its normal condition,
