The plan of operation of the gang is to send one of their men to a drug store to have a prescription of some simple drugs prepared. The prescrip tion is paid for and the medicine taken away. In a few hours the man returns to the drug store, apparently in a great rage and denounces the drug gist, declaring the prescription clerk had made a mistake and put up a poisonous drug in the prescription, the medicine making his wife deeper utely ill, and declaring that he will sue the druggist for heavy damages aud expose his blunder of placing poison in ordinary prescriptions. These threats are made for the pur|x)se of frightening the druggist and causing him to fear that his business will Ik* injured if a suit is brought against him, or if the patient should die and the case become public. The end of the affair generally comes when the druggist, fearing an exposure of care j lessness and u tedious court trial, coughs up one or two hundred dollars.

It reaches its point of perfection when one pair of lips are male and the other female, and its duration is contingent on the phvsical endurance or ’sticktoitiveness’ of the kisser and ‘kissee.’” Deafness Cannot be Cured By local applications, as they cannot reach the deceased portion of the ear. There is only one way to cure deaf ness, and that is by constitutional remedies. Deafness is caused by an inflamed condition of the mucous lining of the Eustachian Tube.
