»*‘The Intellectual Powers of Woman,”
lby Prof. Fabian Franklin, being in
•substance a reply to the spirited arti
‘ de by Mrs. G. G. Buckler in the Sep
' tember Review entitled ‘‘The Lesser
Man." Prof. Fraklin is or the opin
ion that it is impossible to determine
the relative powers of man and wom
an; that it will be long before experi
ence can show, even with a moder
ate degree of probability, what limits
there may be to the possibilities of
Woman in the realm of intellect. Iu
the meanwhile, he pleads, let us not
belittle the actual work of women, in
pursuance of a baseless dogma of es
sential inferiority.

Deafness Cannot Be Cnred
' t>T 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 intiamed condi
tion of the mucous lining of the Kus
tachian Tube. When this tube is in
flamed you have a rumbling sound or im
perfect hearing, and when it is entirely
closed, Deafness is the result, and Un
less the inflammation can be taken out
and this tube restored to Its normal con
dition, hearing will be destroyed forever;
nine cases cut of ten are caused by ca
tarrh, 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 Catarrn
Cure. Send for circulars, free.

ADVICE TO MINISTERS.
Given by a Minister.
Preachers who practise it will
preach better.
%
No class of people is so liable to throat
trouble as the great class who make up the
Gospel ministry. The strain put upon the
vocal organs by constant exercise; the
sudden change from a heated building to
the cool air when the vocal organs are in
a state of complete relaxation; the fact
that a minister feels impelled to use his
voice when actors and lecturers would
take the needed rest; these arc among the
reasons why “Clergymen’s sore throat”
Is known as a special disease. The Rev.
B. M. Brawley, D. D., District Secretary of
the American Baptist Publication Society,
writes from Petersburg, Va., the account
of an experience of his own which is profi
table reading to those afflicted with Bron
chial or other throat troubles. The sub
stance of the letter is as follows:
Petersburg, Va.
J. C. Ayer Co.,
Dear Sirs: Three months ago I took
a violent cold which resulted in an attack
of acute bronchitis. I put myself under
medical treatment, and at the end of two
months was no better. I found it very
difficult to preach, and concluded to try
Dr. Ayer’s Cherry Pectoral. The first bottle
gave me great relief; the second, which 1
am now taking, has relieved me almost
entirely of all unpleasant symptoms. Tc
ministers suffering from throat troubles,
I recommend Dr. Ayer’s Cherry Pectoral.
“Prevention is better than cure." A
bottle of Dr. Ayer’s Cherry Pectoral kept
in the house, will effectually prevent the
rootiug of a cold and its consequent devcl
opement into some dangerous malady.
This remedy has no equal in Bronchial
troubles. The most stubborn cases have
yielded to its use. It is equally effective
for Asthma, Croup, Whooping Cough, and
every disease that attacks the throat or
lungs. For years Dr. Ayer’s Cherry Pec
toral has been put up only in large size
I bottles, at a price of $1.00. To meet an
increasing demand for a smaller sized
package the remedy can now be obtained
in half-size bottles, at half price—50 cents.
Send for Dr. Ayer’s Curebook (free) and
you will get a clearer idea of the great
value of Dr. Ayer's Cherry Pectoral. Ad

CORAL BORING IN THE PACIFIC
ftMnlti of the Expedition Sent Out
from Englaud.
From the Sydney Herald: The
steamer Birksgate, which arrived on
Saturday from the Islands,* brings fur
ther news from Fiji concerning the
coral-boring expedition at Funafuti, In
the Ellice group. News has been
taken to Suva by H. M. S. Royalist of
the progress made by the expedition
after the departure of Professor David
in the John Williams. When Profes
sor David left Funafuti on Sept.' 7
the bore was down 557 fdfct. On Sept.
16, when the Royalist left Funafuti,the
bore was down 643 feet. The Royalist
took to Suva a letter for Dr. Corney
from O. Sweet, F. G. S., who is now
the leader of the expedition, stating
that the boring for the last ninety feet
was chiefly in coral rock, and that no
sign of volcanic rock or of rock other
than coral had yet been met with in
the bore. When the Royalist arrived
the expedition had consumed all their
coal, but Commander Rason was en
abled to supply sufficient coal to last
them till the arrival of the steamer
Archer, from which it was hoped an
additional supply would be obtained.
Professor David states that, the bore
having already exceeded the depth for
which Darwin stipulated in his classi
cal work on coral reefs, and a good
core having been obtained throughout,
it may now be looked upon as a suc
cess. Information likely to be of con
siderable scientific value has been ob
tained, and he considers that the
general evidence so far appears strong
ly to confirm Darwin’s theory that most
of the coral atolls of the Pacific have
been formed on areas of the earth’s
crust which have been undergoing a
prolonged subsidence. A detailed re
port of the results obtained by the ex
pedition will probably be incorporated
in the report of the Royal Society of
London on the coral atoll of Funafuti,
the earlier portion of which will be
written by Professor Sollas, F. R. S.,
the leader of the Funafuti expedition
last year. The bore at Funafuti i3
lined throughout with the best arte
sian tubes, four inches in outside di
ameter. Every foot of the bore had
to be lined with these tube3 to prevent
fragments of coral rock and coral sand
choking the bore. The work of boriag
has proved very difficult on account of
the variable nature of the strata
(.quicksand alternating with coral
rock), and also on account of the ca
vernous nature of the coral rock,which
has caused such a Jarring as to re
peatedly break some of the strongest
cast iron wheels in the machinery. The
diameter of the core obtained from
the bore is two and one-half inches.
HOW TO PREVENT DREAMS,
Simple Remedy Advanced by a Phyil«
dan to Insure Wholesome Sleep.
From the Washington Star: ‘‘After
a series of experiments on myself and
others,” ventured an experienced phys
ician, “I am convinced that many an
noying dreams, which in many in
stances rob sleep of much of its recre
ation and benefit, can be prevented If
persons will take the trouble to do so.
There are dreams which are produced
by an overloaded stomach and indiges
tion. These can be prevented by not
overloading the stomach and taking
care, especially in the evening, to not
eat that which experience has demon
strated is not easily digested. A fairly
filled stomach, however, is less con
ducive to dreams than an absolutely
empty one. I think I can safely say
that if those persons who are troubled
much with extra dreamixg will wear
extra long sleeves in their nightgowns
they will find a remedy thereby. What
is even better than long sleeves is to
put a rubber cord in the hem of the
sleeve, so tnat mey win not sup up
on the arm. The rubber cord should
not he tight enough to interfere with
the circulation of the blood in the
arms, but tight enough to keep the
ends of the sleeves well down on the
wrists. To the bachelors and others
who cannot have their sleeves prop
erly arranged the same eu'ect can be
secured by wearing a wrislet on the
wrist or, better yet, to pull a sock over
the hands and pin the leg of it to the
sleeves of the nightgown. In addition
to preventing dreams this simple ar
rangement will be found extremely
comfortable during the cold nights of
the next couple of months. A little in
quiry will convince anyone that those
whose wrists and forearms are uncov
ered are annoyed most by dreams.
The sock used as a kind of an extended
glove will effectually stop them, but it
must be attached to the sleeve of the
nightgown, otherwise the sleeve will
work up the arm and the desired effect
lost. My remedy, In brief, is to keep
the hand, wrist and forearm well cov
ered."
Perhaps.
Freddie’s father had just been strug
gling with an old fashioned bureau and,
retiring disheartened from an unsuc
cessful effort to open one of its com
partments, he moved to the window
and looking out upon the lowering sky
he exclaimed: "It’s mighty strange
that the weather bureau can’t give us
a change of weather.” "Maybe," shy
ly interposed ^reddle, “they can’t open
the bureau drawers.”—Boston Courier.
An Explanation.
A long-suffering listener, after hear
ing from a youth his account of how
he and two companions kept 500 In
dians at bay for twenty-four hours,
asked. “Do you know why the Lord
said to Ananias, ‘Stand forth?’ ” Upon
receiving a negative reply he contin
ued, “Well, I don’t, either, unless it was
so that you and your two companions
could stand first, second and third.”—

the U. S. Patent Office at Washington,
D. C., Iowa Inventors have 14, Minne
sota 9, Missouri 6, Nebraska 5, South
Dakota 3, Illinois 31, New York 68.
This is a very creditable showing for
Iowa.
We have secured the allowance of a
patent to A. M. Welch, of Winterset,
Iowa, for a chicken deheader. A cone
shaped hopper has an opening at its
lower end to allow the head of a fowl
to pass outwards laterally under a
knife that can readily be operated by
a lever handle to cut off the head
while the fowl remains in the machine

Western Canada, and the new provinces
forming It, he has been led to give the
subject some inquiry, and he has been
sh'iwn letters written to the Canadian
government from delegates sent out by
frlendB to Inspect the country.
One of these delegates who was sent
to Western Canada says: “In under
taking to give a description I fear I
shall not be able to give It justice, for
I hardly know where to begin or when
to end. For a plea for my judgment,
I will assume, for an Illustration, the
experience of a man who went from
place to place In search of a wife, and
finding so many of good qualities and
attractions, was unable to determino
which to choose, so in looking for a
homo in Western Canada 1 like the
country well, and two of my boys are
going this fall (they have since gone,
and each has a homestead), where I
am satisfied they will do well. The
lands which I have seen are far supe
rior in every respect and beyond my
expectations. Lakes and streams to be
found in all districts abound with innu
merable kinds of water fowl, while fish
are very abundant. On all sides we see
innumerable stacks of grain, proving
beyond doubt the fertility of the soil.
On either side of the track can be seen
in addition to the grain herds of cattle,
horses and flocks of shtep. I have
traveled over a great portion of the
Western states and I have seen nothing
to compare with this country. One
hundred and sixty acres of land are
given free to actual settlers, and I saw
cases where as high as $20'per acre had
beta cleared in one year. I do not wish
to advise anyone, but as for myself I
shall leave as soon as I can arrange my
affairs." The agents of the Canadian
Government are now at work organi
zing excursion parties, and the Depart
ment of the Interior at Ottawa, Canada,
will be pleased to supply the informa
tion to those who are not within reach
of an agent.
