There is only one way t" cure deafness, and that is by coni.titut'onal remedies. Deafness is caused by an inflamed condition of the r.iuco'us lining of tho Eustachian Tube. When this tube gets inflamed you have A rumbling sound or imperfect hearing, and when it is entirely closed, Deaft.ess is the result, aud unless the irliammation can be taken out and ibis 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 condition of the mucous surfaces.

As a lake or ocean steamer it will, say its promoters, almost abolish seasickness, ami as a banre it will reduce the cost of one-third or more. Captain Alexander MeDougall, of Superior, Wis., is the inventor, and there are already eighteen "whalebacks" on the lakes, with a total tonnage of 50.000. The deck is rounded as is the bottom, and they come together convex near the water line, so there is little rolling.

PKRU, Ind., Dec. 4.—There are now living in this county four of the heirs of •lie great Fisher estate, now in tha hands of the German government In Germany. Tha amount involved is in the aggregate 000,000. The total number of heirs and direct descendants of the owner is in the neighborhood of 2,000 persons and scattered over seventeen states. This money lias been in trust of the German government for many years, aud although many have been the claimants until thus far none have been able to present a clear case. To facilitate matters tho heirs, to the number of nearly. 300 met in Cincinnati a short time ago and discussed the matter in all its various phases. It was decided to employ and send to Germany two able attorneys to push the matter and investigate further. This was done and the report received from them fully justifies the expenditure made. The family tree has been fuliy traced down and the record with a few slight exceptions is complete. It is probable another meeting will be held to further matters and wind up the affairs.

WASHINGTON, Ilea 4. Representative Brown, of Indiana, oue of Mr. Dalton's most intimate friends, says that Mr. Dal ton will not be a candidate for the house clerkship. He has extensive business interests in Indiana which he could, not well abandon, aud was put in the position of being a candidate more by his friends than by any act or desire of his own. He was a popular postmaster for the house of representatives for several years, and the old members of congress with whom he was so long associated strongly desired that he should return to Washington. They considered his chances for success equal to those of any candidate, and with their earnest efforts in his behalf his nomination was more than probable. But Mr. Dalton has fully made up his miud and will return to Indiana after the organization of the house, bearing with him the sincere good wishes of all of his many friends.

TAKING DOWN A STOVE

SELECTIONS FROM THE WRITINGS OF THE DANBURY NEWS MAN.

Mr. Perklus Had Nover Tried to lo It Before, but He Found Out About It Before fie Got Through—Ladles to the

Rescuc.

ICopvrightcd by Leo Sbopard, Boston, and published by special arrangoxnent with thorn.) It seems a pity that the glory of these bright May days should be marred by the gross materialism of soap and brush, mop and broom that the fragrant nnd delicate perfumes of budding nature and atmospherical freshness should be harnessed to the doubtful aroma of an upturned house. But over our broad and beautiful land the terrors of domestic reform hold sway, aud the masculine mind is harrowed by spectacles the little happiness we are allotted in this world does not warrant.

Mrs. Perkins has devoted this week to tho onerous duty of cleaning house. Since 0 o'clock Monday morning that estimable lady has been the motive

power of many brushes and cloths, and of much water and soap. At various hours when 1 have made my appearance near the house 1 have caught sight of her portly form through several windows, a flaring handkerchief concealing her temples and covering the site of her chignou.

There was an expression of deep redness upon her features that pained-me while 1 beheld, but which at the same time led me to remark to myself that it was not the most favorable time for making a call, and thus looking aud apprehending 1 would turn sadly away.

Monday morning we had our breakfast in our comfortable dining room. At noon I took my dinner from the lid of the ice chest. It was dreadful cold, and tasted clammy and disagreeable. In tho evening 1 stood back of the stove and partook of a slice of bread (the butter had got mislaid) and drank some of last year's tea from the irregular spout of the milk pitcher. In the morning we ate breakfast in the sink (there was no fire in the stove, as it was to be kept cold for moving). The victuals had a flavor of great dampness and tasted as though they had been fished out of the soap barrel.

After astonishing my internal structure with the meal, 1 accepted an invitation from Mrs. Perkins to take down the stove. In justice to myself it may be well to remark that 1 never took down a stove, nor was present when that intricate performance was going on, and this in a measuro accounta for tho slight misgiving 1 may have entertained when brought face to face with the tremendous range.

The conversation that ensued was something like this: "You want to use great care, Mr. Perkins, and not let the whole thing $ill on you and kill yourself."

This appeared reasonable enough, and I readily promised to use my best endeavors to keep tho whole thing from falling upon me. "And, Mr. Perkins, don't get nervous with the pipe, because Mary Ann has just scrubbed the floor, and that stuff gringes in awfully."

I hadn't the remotest idea of what the stuff could be that gringes in awfully, but I didn't like to show ignorance before Mary Ann and sol confidently responded: "Certainly not." "And be very careful about your clothes, Mr. Perkins, now, won't youi"' This appeal was delivered with so much confidence mingled with doubt that 1 hardly knew whether to treat it as a compliment or a suspicion, and concluded it was best to split the difference and preserve silence. "We are all ready now, Mr. Pbrkins. Mary Ann you come here and steady the pipe while Mr. Perkins gets on the chair and takes it down."

Upon this 1 mounted a chair and grasped the pipe, but 1 must not neglect to mention that as I grasped the pipe Mrs. Perkins grasped my legs. "Goodness gracious, Cyrus Davidson Perkinsl don't you know better than to stand on one of the best chairs in the house and" break right through tho canes?" 1 had to admit that I didn't know any better, but cheerfully got down and mounted another chair. This time 1 caught the pipe by its neck, and gave it a gentle pull from the chimney. It didn't move a bit, which encouraged me to believe 1 could bring a little more muscle into play, and under this impression I gave an extra twist. It came this time, and so much more readily than 1 had reason to .expect that 1 stepped down to the floor with it, passing over the top of the stove and rubbing off an inch or so of skin from Mary Ann's nose. "Oh, Moses!" screamed that lady.

What have you done? Oh, what have you done?" cried Mrs. Perkins. Singularly enough, I didn't say anything, but got upon my feet as quick as 1 could and rubbed my head, and looked all around but where Mrs. Perkins and her weeping aid were standing. "It's just like a man. You have made len times more work than yon have Helped. Mary Ann, get the floor cloth. And there's a great spot on that floor we can never get off. I'd like to make a fool of myself, I know I should. I knew when.you stuck your ungainly carcase on that chair you would kill somebody. Does it hurt you. Mary Ann? I *vouldn't rub it too bni'il we'll have to take it up dry and soap it oyer. You awkward fool, didn't you know what you were doing? Now take the pipe out doors, and don't look any more like a smoked idiot than you can help."

The manner in which this last was uttered left no room to doubt that I was the person refprred to, and 1 picked up the pipe ana sorrowfully propelled it outdoors, although I am compelled to admit that six links of pipe varied by two elbows at opposite angles is not the most desirable thing in the world toes cort outdoors.

When I came back Mrs. Perkins had

dressed the wound on Alary Ann's lace with a strip ol Drown paper, ami tolil me 1 might help to carry the stove into tho shed if 1 was sure of being quite so ber.

Upon this invitation 1 took hold of the range with the two ladies, aud by loosening half a dozen joints in uiy spine I was finally successful in getting the thing out of the room. But the pleasure of tho occasion was irretrievably lost. Mrs. Perkins was ominously silent. Mary Ann's air was one of reproach, which, combined with tho brown paper, gave her an appearanco of unearthly tincer tainty.

At dinner that day I ate .some cold cabbage and a couple of soda crackers, carefully picking off the flakes of soap that adhered thereto. This morning 1 ate my breakfast on tho stoop, and got my dinner through tho milkroom window. eating it from the sill. It consisted of the last slice from yesterday's loaf, and two decrepit herrings.

What we are to have for supper, and whether it will be necessary to go home after it, are questions that depress me this p. m. Yours respectfully,

OYHOS D. PERKINS.

Street Life In Dunbury.

Old Mr. Watson, on Nelson street, has got a nice little bill to pay He sent a man down town for a pot of paint and a ladder. The man got tho paint aud then went to a lumber yard after a ladder. Then he tied the paint pot on the end of the ladder and put tho ladder on his shoulder This was a very smart ar rangement and the man himself admired it very much. He started for home this way and didn't find any trouble in getting along the first block, because people had an impression that a long ladder with a pot of yellow paint dangling on the end of it wasn't exactly tho thing to trifle with, so they balanced along on the curbstone or rubbed up against the buildings.

Pretty soon the man saw somebody in a store he knew, and he turned around to speak to him and drove one end of the ladder into a millinery case and knocki the crown out of an eighteen dollar bon

net. Then he backed off in affright and knocked down two sewing machine agents with the other end. Then* he started to turn around, and an old gentleman who was desperately endeavoring to pull his wife out of danger saw the peril and shouted out, "Hi there!" But it was too late. The pot Btruck against an awning post, tipped to one side and the ontire contents went over tho aged couple. This so startled tho man that he whirled completely around, smashing in an entire store front, frightening a milkman's team and knocking over Eome thirteen persons who were actively dodging about to get out of tho way. Then he dropped tho ladder and fled into the country, shouting "Murder" and "Fire'' at every jump. A regularly ordained painter is now engaged on Mr. Watson's house.

These words are very familiar to our readers nnd not a day passes without the report of the sudden death of some prominent citizen. The explanation is '•hoart disease." This is reason to be careful if jou have any of tho following symptoms: Short breath, pain in sido, sn.othering spells, swollen ankles, asthmatic breathing, weak and hungry spells, tenderness in shoulder and arm, fluttering of henrt, irregular pulse.
