DON’T
Scatter Your Business
Any man who has ever been in mercantile busi-
ness knows the value of confining; buying to as
few wholesale houses as possible.
It is more important not to scatter your bank-
ing business between two or more banks. It
may be all right as long as times are good and
money easy to get, but when the nard times come
you will find that it is the man who has stuck to
one bank who has a good friend that will take
care of him through thick and thin.
The man who scatters his banking business
can not keep his private affairs and his business
confidence, but like a hen trying to set on tWo
nests, he may not be able to keep any of the
eggs warm.

Deafness Cannot be Cured
by local applications, as they can-
not reach the diseased portion of
the ear. There is only one way to
cure deafness, and that is by con-
stitutional remedies. Deafness is
caused by au inflamed condition of
the mucous lining of the Eustach-
ian Tube. When this tul»e is in-
flamed you have a rumbling sound
or imperfect hearing, aud when it
is entiiely classed, deafness is the
result, aud unless the inflamma-
tion can be taken out and this
tube restored to its normal condi-
tion, hearing will be destroyed for-
ever; nine cases out of ten are
caused by Catarrh, which is noth-
ing but an inflamed condition of
the mucous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dol-
lars for any case of Deafness (caus-
ed by catarrh) that cannot be cur-
ed by Hall’s Catarrh Cure. Send

In the too familiar box In which ham-

They could make It sing and dance,

Into showering as from April skies tbs

Chopin was born In Zelaaowa-Wola,
near Warsaw, on March 1, 1800. Dur-
ing the Ufa of hla parents tha land
which Soblaakl made glorious bad been
devastated by merciless wars and di-
vided between Kneels, Prussia and
Oermany. Hla father was a Wench
Potander. Hla mother was of native
blood, and the Infant drank deeply of

halted there—for life. lie was one of
the many refugees who left Poland
after Its linn 1 subjugation In 1830. He
, would go a-soldlerlng, but was better
advised, so sat down and put all bla
patriotic deapalr and ludtgnatlon Into
the great “Study In C Minor,” the first
{ sound of which la like the crack of
| doom. This musical language of ro-
mance captivated the cultured uu-
' dlences. It tells more powerfully than
all the bullets he might have missed
Are with—and been accounted a hero.
Chopin worked hard in composition
and at the plauo. He gave no public
concerts for the four years ending with
! 1885. He only resorted to this when
j badly In need of money. Most of bis
' concerts were aemlprlvats during tbe
laet tea yean of bla Ufa. Llsat pic-

No wonder be was a melancholy man.
Polish music la melancholy. Even In
Its wildest dances there must come u
lament for the sacred cause— for the
time a lost cause.
Lucky for posterity It was that ao
frail a constitution had not to battle
for existence. It would have smoth-
ered the Cbopln genius, though pianos
would not have gone mute. Ills fa-
ther bad a profitable boarding school.
In which the boy and his three sister.;
enjoyed happy years and were, well
schooled. A locally famous violinist
taught him tbe piano and perhaps In-
spired him to make It sing like the
stringed Instrument At eight he
played at his first concert for a chari-
ty. When hla mother asked bow ha
felt on facing an audience he grumpi-
ly replied, “Oh, they were alt looking
at my new lace collar!" In which one
of bis biographers shrewdly sees the
germ of Chopin’s lifelong contempt for
popular audience#.
The famous Eisner, director of tbe
Warsaw conservatoire, waa pleased to
teach him the theory of music, har-
mony and counterpoint. Daring these
years-Chopin wisely rambled through
the country, picking up folk songs and
rustic dances, all throbbing with the
Slavonic spirit He was also taken np
by ladies of tbe nobility, who made a
drawing room pet of him. Hla long
list of Improvisations, with dances and
light pieces, brenght fame and patron-
age. Chopin’s waa a feminise temper-
ament He preferred this luxurious
life to the ungrateful task ef perform-
ing to tbe multitude for meaey wage
Tbe esar gave him a d la meed ring la

ular pianists. Prince Rads!will, him-

longed to play heroine to him as hero,
but were tethered by their mothers'
apron strings. Mendelssohn once la-
beled him “Choploette,” so we may
believe that not many broken hearts
marked hla flight from Poland.
Hla first love worthy the name was

He was supposed to have been In love

him a ring, however. When tbe revo
lutlon broke out and he fled with Un-
rest, tbe pupils of the conservatoire
waylaid bla coach, started a concert on
tbe spot and with a pretty touch oi
sentiment presented him with a alive
cup filled with tbe earth of their U
loved Polaud. This earth was strewn
over Chopin's grave when he waa In
terred In Pere I^tcbalne cemetery.
Hla state of mind on getting safely
to Paris can l>e Imagined from a letter.
He la worrying as to the fate of hU
friends. "Perhaps my sisters have
fallen victims to the fury of the Mus-
covite soldiers! • • • What to Oon-
atantla? Poverty stricken, perhaps, in
tbe hands of tbe Muscovites! One
strangles her, murders her! Ah, my
life! Here am I, alone. Come to me.

ring, but there la none In this hollow
array of beauteous words. Const#n
tin's help came from a mere practical
hern, whom ube married e few month*
after thia. At a later date Chopin
wrote from Parts to another friend: “
