NOVEMBER AILMENTS "j I THEIR PREVENTION AND CURE. November is the month of falling temperatures. Over all the temperate regions the hot weather has passed and the iirst rigors of winter have appeared.

Deafness Cannot Be Cured by local applications, as they cannot reach the diseased portion of the car. 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 the Eustachian Tube. When this tube is inflamed you have a rumbling sound or imperfect nearing, and when it is entirely closed, Deafness is the result, and unless the inflammation can be taken out and this tube restored to its norma! 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.

It emitted tepid air, but slightly modi fying the chill of the small back be.ircom whica the little spinster had at a very low figure because she kept it in order herself and used an oil lamp instead of gas. She nad not made a light yet. Even kerosene costs money, and the moon gave light enough to fret by. Nearly three months had passed since she had lost her place in Hodge & Gammon's store. She had filled place after place in this establishment most faithfully for nigh to twenty of her forty-three years. There was no complaint against her. The firm dropped Miss Brooks ani Miss Gray, to each of whom for some years past it had been paying $10 a week, simply because it had found a man to do the work of both women at $15 a week. "WHEN THE FROST IS OX THE PUMPKIN AND THE FODDER S IN THE SHOCK." It mattered little to Miss Gray? she would be married at mid-November?but f->r Miss Brooks, older by ten years, and without kindred or lover, the loss was a measureless ill. Not that she realize I it as such at the outset. Miss Gray was kinder than a young woman getting ready to be - *rried could reasonably have been expected to be; and Miss Brooks herself was of a sweet and cheery nature and had no doubt that where one door had shut another would presently open. At least, there would be a place for her in another department of Hodge & Gammon's, though at lower wages. Through her long service and limited experience, her life had grown into the very building and she shrank from an absolute change almost as from the wrenching asunder of soul and body. But the gray streaks in her soft brown hair stopped her return to the salesrooms r; with bars of adamant. Those same gray streaks, from whici her fresh, unwrinkled skin, bright eyes and trim alert figure seemed powerless to distract the attention of possible employers, proved her undoing at every quest. In various phrases, softened now with halfcontemptuous pity, sharpened anon with cynical brutality, she was denied in her timid application as "too old" to be of any use. Experience! It had no chance in the race with youth. The gray streaks had widened r.uring these dreary days, the refined features had sharpened and the delicate color faded. The little hoard against the proverbial rainy ?_ay, after twenty years of poorly paid labor, had been small at best, but it was smaller even than it need nave been, for Sarah Brooks had never been able to withhold her mite from a fellow-creature in distress. And now, despite the wonted insane feminine economies in food and street car fare, the tiny hoard was lessening at a frightful pace. She thought ruefully to-night? though chiding herself for meanness in the memory?of sundry $3 and $10 bills loaned on promise of repayment "next month" to fellowworkers long since departed to fresh fields and pastures new, and getting warm at last with the aid of her wellworn winter cloak and the tepid register, she lost herself in a pitiful little dream of letter in the morning mail in which some one of her many debtors should return his or her loan. A peremptory knock on her door brought her sharply oacK to reaiuy. "Gentleman in the parlor to see Miss Brooks!" announced Mrs. Tompkins, the landlady, with the rising inflection of curiosity in her voice, for women like Miss Brooks, in a cheap South End lodging house, have fewvisitors of the sterner sex.

But the little spinster hazarded no conjectures as to her caller, though her heart bounded. Was it a case of telepathy ? Her dream had been so vivid and so comforting, she could not escape the conviction that some of her hard-earned money so recklessly cast upon the waters in bygone days was coming back by hand instpari nf hv Wtpr But the man who rose as she entered the dimly lighted, dingy parlor was an utter stranger; tall, dark, shabbily dressed, with a furtive face and a manner half insolent, half insinuating and wholly disagreeable. "Miss Brooks?" and as the little woman bowed timidly and seated herself at the other side of the centre table with the cracked marble top? "Miss Sarah Brooks?" She bowed again, and he continued: "If you are Miss Sarah Brooks, niece and only surviving relative of John Peter Brooks, who died in San Francisco on March 12, 1882, I know of feomething to your advantage which I am prepared to make known to you under proper conditions." "John Peter Brooks was my father's only brother, and I am his only i living relative, as I can easily prove, since we all were born in Boston,"she answered, her brief elation subsiding. "But I can't imagine any advantage to come to me through him.

"We must not judge by appearances, Miss Brooks," said the stranger, portentionsly. It is about forty years, I believe, since your uncle last visited Boston." "So they told me," faltered Miss Brooks. "Well, madam, I can assure you that I have made a discovery in connection with your uncle's estate of the greatest importance to you, but it is my right to let you into it on my own conditions." "Oh, certainly, sir," murmured the little woman, with r. faint return of hope, the while she trembled under the sinister eyes fixed upon her. When one has been subsisting for three or four days on one stale loaf and an occasional drink of milk and water, walking meantime mile upon mile, in dismal weather, from one disappointment to another, and cominir hark to a cold room and a sleep less bed, one's courage Is likely to be low. "If you would tell me " "I'll tell you nothing until you have filled out and signed these papers. Sign here!" commanded the stranger, stretching two broad sheets of paper before her and taking a fountain pen from his pocket. One was a power of attorney dated two days ahead, authorizing the bearer, Irving Wilson, to collect, as the representative of Sarah Brooks, any claim or claims belonging to the estate of her uncle, the late John Peter Brooks, and the other was an agreement on the part of said Sarah 7-rooks to allow said Irving Wilson half of the recovered claim or claims for his discovery and trouble and expense in collecting. She took up the pen, but hesitated. "How mucii might it be?" she asked timidly. Her visitor waxed impatient. "Whatever it is, you'll get none o! n unless you sign these papers. QuJck!" he cried, turning imperious eyes upon her. "Sign here!" Bui t*ie frightened, exhausted *..oman had slipped to the tloor in a dead faint, and Mrs. Tompkins, ?rho ?not liking the ^oks of the man, as she explained later?had been listening behind the shabby portiere, was beside her in a second. "I'll- wa;t till she comes to. It's very important; all to her own interest," said he visitor in a milder tone. "It's not so important, nor so much I to anyone's interest, but it can wait till after Thanksgiving," she said, coldly. "Here, Norah," to the goodlooking maid who had appeare'' in j the hallway, "help me get Miss Brooks to her room." She watched the discomfited stranger till he had gathered up his pen and papers and reluctantly departed, saying that he would call to inquire for Miss Brooks in the morning. ******* '.is nothing but starvation," whispered Mrs. Tompkins to Norah on the landing a few minutes later. "I'll sit with her till she takes this bowl of beef tea and a bit of toast to it and try to chirk her up a bit. Hark! There's the bell again." Anoiner momeni ana tne Dearoom door was burst open, and only Mrs. Tompkins' cautious hand saved the beef tea, as the bride of a fortnight, but late Miss Gray, of Hodge & Gammon's, flung herself upon her old s >pmate. "Oh, Sarah, dear; what luck! I saw it in the Wayfarer this morning. We got back from Washington last night. I told Tom all you ever told me about your family. He has looked up everything and it's yours, sure enough. It was advertised before, but no one who knew about you could have seen it... .Nothing to do but present your proofs and draw your money.

Oh, I don't mean her uncle," and Mrs. Tompkins turned from the bride's horrified face. "Don't faint again, Miss Brooks; though you did the best job of your life when you fainted, just as yov. was agoin' to sign that scoundrel's paper." 1 Miss Brooks had the Wayfarer in her hand, her eyes riveted on the heavily penciled line which held the potency of comfort and ease for the ? rest of her days.
