'"During a bombing of our side I
slipped ln'o a dugout for refuge.. A
shell caused the place to be buried
with earth, and I was deep under
the debris. Two fellows saw my
plight, and rushed over and dug
me out. Imagine my surprise on
shiakiivr hands with them and mak
ing inquiries to find out who they
were »o learn that they were from
Dawson, your Nome town. They
were Scotty Wilson, formerly with
the mounted police and later in the
firq hail in Dawson, and Jim Orr, al

MORE EGGS BY KINDNESS.
Professor Has a Theory That Will Be
Giv«n a Thorough Test
Vinelund, N. J.—Whether kindly
treatment of a hen will accelerate egg
productivity in the inverse ratio of
careless or indifferent attention is to
be given official demonstration in the
egg laying contests under way here.
Professor T. It. Johnstone, superin
tendent of the Training School For
Feeble Minded Boys and Girls, has
maintained that kindness to a hen
means more cgss. but some of the ex
pert poultrymcu hereabouts scout the
idea, saying that the average hen is
too obtuse to appreciate what is done
for her.
With the aid of Harry it. Lewis,
poultry husbandman of t lie state ex
periment station, Professor Johnstone
has arranged'for the demonstration of
his theory.
Two pens of hens of the snme breed
and strain will be set apart. To one of
them will be attached as attendant a
man who can go about his work with
a sunny smile, cheerful interest and
gentle touch. To the ether will be as
signed one with an ingrown grouch.
The same feed and the same conditions
exactly will bt» applied to both pens
and the records carefully kept as to
which gives the best results. Professor
Johnstone feels sure that his theory
will be fully substantiated.

Deafness Cannot Ke Cured
by local application?, an they cannot reach
the diseased portion of the ear. There la
only one way to euro deaf new, and that !■
by constitutional remedies. Deafness Is
caused l.y an inflamed condition of the mu
cous lining of the Eustachian Tube. When
this tube is inflamed you have a rumbling
sound or impel feet hearing, r.nd when It is
entirely closed. Deafness is the result, and
unless the Inflammation tan be taken out
and tills tube restored to its normal condi
tion. hearing will be destroyed forever; nine
cases out of ten are caused by Catarrh,
which Is nothing but an inflamed condition
of the inucouM surfaces.

ease of Deafness (caused by catarrh) that
cannot be cured by Hall's Catarrh Cure.
