Deafness Cannot Be Corea

by local applications, as they cannot reach the diseased 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 (he Eustachian Tube. When this tube gets Inflamed you hare a rumbling sound or Imperfect hearing, and when It Is entirely closed Deafness Is the result, and unless the Inflammation can be taken out and this 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. We will give One Hundred Dollars for any case of Deafness (caused by catarrh) that cannot be cured by Hall's Catarrh Cure. Send for circulars, free. —o . e. F. J. CHENEY S CO..

When the Brain is Growing.

A prominent educator, talking to mothers, says that with all children there are nascent periods that is, there are certain times when a child can learn to do things easier and better titan at others. The growth of brains Is not generally understood. There Is, however, an ebb and flow of interest. The children apply themselves assiduously for a time; then comes arrest, and educators are now disputing whether to urge the child along after the ebb or wait for the certain return of Interest In their work.

SENATOR DA VIS DEAD.

Ml N N ESOTA STATES M A N AT LAST SUCCUMBS. Was Chairman of Senate Forelen Be* lattons Committee and a Member of the Paris Peace Commission The Story of Hia Career. After an illness, beginning two months ago in an apparently trivial abrasion of one of his feet, developing later into blood poisoning and still later into ne-

phritis, Cushman Kellogg Davis, chairman of the committee on foreign relutiona in the Senate, died Tuesday evening at his home in St. Paul, Minn. He had suffered greatly during his sickness and gradually sank away, being unconscious for several hours before death,

C K. DAVIS.

and so far rs could be known, suffering no pain. The last conscious utterance of the Senator was the expression of & wish to live, Rot for the sake of life iteelf, but because he believed his country needed him. While it had been certain for more than a week that death was only a matter of days or hours, still the announcement caused a painful shock to the friends and admirers of the statesman. To none was the stem realization more painful than the Senator’s devoted wife, who had hoped against hope through all his illness. The Senator, in his moments of lucidity, expressed a Btrong determination to recover, and within a week told United States District Attorney Evans, who had been admitted to see him, that he was positive he would soon be well. In his delirium he raved of his congressional work. . He would declare in vigorous phrases fragments of the nation’s foreign policy. There was of course no coherence—a sentence about the Philippines would be followed by a comment upon the Monroe doctrine, or a suggestion of an impending war with Spain. But always, in his diseased mind, his patriotic and official duties were with him. Brief Story o' His Life. Cushman Kellogg Davis was born at Henderson, Jefferson County, N. Y., June 10, 1838. When he was a child his parents moved to Waukesha, Wis., where he lived until 1865. In June, 1857, he graduated from Ann Arbor University, and a year later commenced the practice of law in Waukesha. When the Civil War broke out he enlisted as a second lieutenant and served until 1864, when he retired owing to illness. He moved in 1865 to St. Paul, where as a lawyer he gained such notice that in 1567 he was elected to the Minnesota Legislature. He was appointed United States district attorney in 1868, and served five years. In 1874 he was elected Governor of Minnesota on the Republican ticket;

He refused a second term, owing to his ambition to become United States Senator. He was beaten for that honor in 1575, and again in 1881. On Jan. 18, 1887, however, his ambition was realized, he being elected to fill the unexpired term of Senator J.-S. R. McMillan. He was re-elected and had been one of the great men of the United States ever since. Senator Davis was one of the earliest advocates for the annexation of the Hawaiian Islands, and it was under his leadership, that the annexation was consummated. When President McKinley submitted his report on the destruction of the Maine Senator Davis, as chairman of the foreign relations committee, prepared and submitted the resolutions which were practically, if not formally, a declaration of war against Spain. Next to ex-Secretary of State Day, Senator Davis was the most important member of the Paris Peace Commission. Death Leaves Vacancy. President McKinley was shocked to hear of the end, although it had been hourly expected. The Minnesota Senator was one of those most relied upon for advice in the days preceding the declaration of war with Spain, and his advice had at all times been eagerly sought in all foreign affairs. The death of Senator Davis leaves the chairmanship of the committee on foreign relations vacant and there will be much interest developed in the selection of a successor. A general rearrangement of committee assignments may result. The direction of the foreign relations committee is of the greatest importance to the administration at this time, owing to the pending Hay-Panncefote treaty and the various complications in the international field. The ranking member of the foreign relations committee is Senator Frye of Maine, but as Senator Frye is president pro tom. of the Senate and chairman of' the commerce committee, it is not regarded that his selection as chairman of foreign relations is within the range of probabilities.

Deacon Slept-Pastor Resigned.

Rer. W. C. Jones, pastor of the First Congregational Church In Sharon, Pa., has resigned, giving as the reason that

some members of his church sleep during he services. He charges one of the deacons with sleeping fifteen out of sixteen Sundays. I.aat Sunday Rev. Mr. Jones detected a deacon napping while he was preaching. The pastor at once cut his sermoa short and dismissed the congregation. Ha

then handed In his resignation. Workmen digging a ditch near Round Prairie, Ohio, have uncovered one of the finest and best preserved mastodon skeletons yet found in that State. Unfortunately they damaged one of the enormous tusks before they knew what It was. The tusk is 9 feet in diameter at the socket end. During the last ten yenrs more than $10,000,000 has been expended In the United States in the maintenance of agricultural experiment stations, $7,000,000 of which has come front the Federal government.

Took a Bite In the Dark.

j A young man whose work keeps him ■owntown until the early morning piours usually reaches home with a Sharp appetite. Ills mother, an Indulgent mother, too, puts a little lunch out where he can get it Sometimes there Is an ample lunch, but generally he seeks the pantry for more. His wise parent knows this and she saves the larder from a wholesale onslaught by locking things up. Now, if there ia one thing in particular that this youth dotes upon it is jelly. But jelly Is an article of food that takes time and skill in its preparation, and if the lady left her jelly jars at his disposal—well, there would be none to dispose of after a few mornings. So the Jelly is locked up the tightest of all, eaj-e the Detroit Journal. The other morning the youth let himself into the house just as the gray streaks of dawn were cross-barring the eastern sky. There was milk and bread awaiting him, but his soul craved for Jelly. He determined to bunt for some. Taking a slice of bread and a knife, he stole down cellar and searched the fruit shelves. What happiness! He dimly made out the outlines of a Jelly Jar. Was there any Jelly In it? He flipped In his knife and felt the soft and quivering mass. What a Joke on his usually careful mother! She had actually forgotten to turn the key on this treasure. He drew out a generous quantity and carefully spread it on the bread. He had to do it largely by guesswork, because the cellar waS almost totally dark. When the spreading was done he smacked his lips lightly and took a generous bite. No, it wasn’t Jelly. It was soft soap.
