Deafness Can't be Cured by local application, as they cannot reach the diseased portion of the ear. There is only one way to cure aeai ness, and that is by constitutional remedies. Deafness is caused by an inflamed condition of the mucua lin ing of the Eustachian Tube. When this tubo eets inflamed you have a rumbMnsr sound of an imperfect hear ingand when it is entirely closed, TtoafnMB is the remit, ana unless the inflammation can be taken opt and this tube restored to its normal condition, bearing will be destroyed forever; nine cases out nf ten are caused by catarrh, which is nothing but an In flamed condition of the mucus sur faces.

Wake Cp, Dalrjrmee, w. a. iiBnr. What would we think of smelting works that bought gold rock by the ton without analysis? How careful would the minors be to sort the rock, throw awsy the worthless part and rrlve to deliver nothinsr but hizh grade ore under such a system ? What it sawmills bought logs oy ine Hun dred, with no stipulations as to size? How long would it be before parties supplying the mill would argue them selves into the full belief that a sap Hiijr was a giant of the forest and go ing cheap at the price paid? liow would a grist mill iure uiai oougut wheat bv the bushel without any ex- miiiatltn nr irrariill? ? HOW lOlie would the parties drawing wheat to such a mill deal square with the mil ler, and deliver nothing out ciean, sat isfactory grain ? We smile to think of the absurdity of running any business on such a plan as this, and yet this is just what has been going on at our cheese and butter lactones, wnen nm is brought by the hundred pounds re- f;ardles of what it contains. No bus uess in this world is legitimate and fair to everv one concerned until every party interested receives his due pro portion of pay based on merit, ana merit only. A am led . to theso thnnorhtsbvlookinarover the reports of hundreds of analyses of herd milk, taken at factories lis this siaic, niaue ai this station for Food and Dairy Com missioner Thorn. A few milks have ruu as low as 2V lbs. of fat to the hundred ; others have gone up as high as 5 lbs. in a few cases. A large iium- hnr are iust kbove 3 lbs.. Slid quite many ruu about 4.5 lbs. of fat to the hundred. Think for a moment of the wide variation iu these figures. Even ignoring the 1 per cent, sam ples, which we may assume are cueais and frauds, see the difference between honest milk of 3.25, say. ami hiiik oi 4.5 per cent. Here is one farmer turn ing in milk which will make about 3.25 lbs. of better, and the other 4.5 to the hundred, and each delivering such milk day after day. year after year, driving to and from the factory in companv, talking over politics, hard times, h'iffh taxes, and such matters to gether as neighbors do, ignorant of this wide diuerence existing ociweeii the value of the milk each turns in. Let us change the case slizhtly. Sup posing the same fanners have hogs to deliver at the railroad stsiien. une brimrs hoirs that weizh 325 lbs. each : the other an equal number weighing 450 lbs. each. What if the slosk buy er were to say : "A hog is a hog with UO, RUU " course the us, aud we pay so mucjn apiece ; oi course the heaviest nogs oriug me most nionev. but we must average the thing, so I -will pay each of you the same average per neau. w uai a row there would be? Why should there not be a grand clearing up at the factory where milk is delivered, and each person tcct his just dues if such great variations ex ist : The oniy reason mere is uoi is because the farmers have not been brought to realize the great difference in the different lots of milk; being a white, opaque substance, a can-full of milk seems a can full, no more no less, and one lot as good as another. The fat test is going to straighten this all out The prescut year marks an era in dairying, and is the dawn of a bet ter day for the intelligent and progres sive dairyman. From this time forth the wheat will he winnowed from the chaff, aud honcBty and intelligence get their due reward. The fat test now used in a few factories will become general very soon, and dairymen honld ret ready for the chancre. It Is the duty of every intelligent patron to insist that tne iactory atiopi some ichi at the earliest possible date, and that all money be divided upon what the test shows multiplied by the quantity of milk each delivers. We are nleased to nublisli all Prof. Henry will say on the test system as it is certainly the most important topic just now in the dairy. We wisli.how- ever, to adn that not oniv snouia na trons nav for testing their individual cows but also for their testing of the milk at the factory. The factoryman has no personal profit in It, but the pa trons have hence they ought to pay for the extra expense. Ed. D. C. . -. Rccommendi S. S. 8. a Spring- Tonic.
