•6141Y/NVENTIONS OP NAPIER.
•
We recall the inVention of Napier
�f Metthititon, which Was guaranteed
to dear an area of total 211110s
ference, netilhilitting *11 objeetli there -
on oho,twelve inches high. Sir inTmE TEN Nosit
Thomas Urquhart itays it Was rashly1111 ft
tried en a large plain, when "naanyk
amp and cattle were blown into
apace.' But it is not made elver
that Urceirhart !Jaw the wonder with
his own eye*, which is pretty Otrong
eVidence that he did not.
According to NaPier'S own des-
cription, it Was a "shot which rang-
ed abroad within the whole appoint-
ed apace, not departing forth till it
had executed its strength by des-
troying those that be within the
bounds of said place." The discov-
erer of logarithme Was a most re.
extensible personage, whose assertions
are not to be,highly dismissed, but
we really cannot accept thie. An-
other invention was 4 mirror like
that of Archimedes, but "improved
to reflect artifieial fire." A third
was a closed and fortified carriage to
bring arquebueiers into the Midst of
the enemy. Yet another was "a.
device for sailing under water," but
perhaps he did not complete this,
which is numbered arnong the "strat-
agems of harming the enemy which,
by the graee of God and the work
of expert craftsmen, I hope to per-
form." On his deathbed, however,
Merchiston refused to tell the eecret
of these machines, saying that "too
tunny devices for the ruin' and over,
throw of man have been framed al -
reedy."
SUBMARINE BOATS.
This was the last year of the six-
teenth century. Two of the invene
Mono described are actually in uee
now -armor -plated carriages and sub-
marine boats --but we dare not con-
clude, unfortunately, that Napier
forestalled science 300 years ago.
So a contemporary account of Sir
William Petty's wonderful discoveries
mentions "a, wheel° to run races
with." This looks very like a bicy-
cle, but, in fact, no doubt it was the
"hobby" which, overlooleed for gene
()rations, on a sudden came "the,
rege" in the beginning 'of the last
century -a wheel propelled by the
rider's feet, which touched the ground
on either. side. But this is wander-
ing from our theme. We have
learned that the More ingenious and
the more destructive, potentially,
our warlike engines inay be; the lose
suffering they actually ',cause. More
men were killed and hurt by the
leather .guns of Gustavus 'Adolphus
th'an • by our magazine rifles and
Maxims during the Boer war.

Deafness Cannot Be :Cured
by local is.pplicottionsnas they cannot
reach the tf ieensed portion of the ear,
alrtligt tIrslYbr :to:AZ.1;1:r ,1:41'etille::
Deafness is caused by an inflamed con-
dition of the mucous lining of the Rua-
tachian Tube. When this tube is in-
flamed you have a rumbling sound or
linpurfect hearing, and when it is en-
tirely closed, Deafness is the result. and
unless the inflomanation can be taken
out and this tube restored to. Its norm-
al condition, hearing will be destroyed
forever; nine cases out of ten are caus-
ed by Catarrh, which is nothing but
an inflamed condition of the mucous
surfaces.
We will .give One Hundred Dollars for
any case • of Deafness (caused by cat-
arrh) that cannot be cured by Haire
