Saved Her Sight
Another Wonder Performed by
Hoods Sarsaparllla.

"My little girl Hazel ia now four years
old. Two years ago she had the grip. After
recovery her eyes grew intlamed and sup
turated. For over months she had to
have her eyes bandaged and stay in dark
room. The family doctor and an oculist
did everything possible. She did not i'm
prove and oven grew worse. At last after
six months he gave US the discouraging
opinion that the cornea OF one eye was de-
stroyed
And Sight Entirely Como.
That 1t was doubtful II she would over be
able to see any with tho other, as the sight
WAS rapidly being destroyed in that also.

preciativcly Of the splendid work that has
been dene by the senate committee and
its talented COUNCIL There has been Gre
atod through their instrumentality an
epoch in the history Of our city, and there
has been secured at the polls a municipal
revolution that would have been impossi-

Of a similar kind And It is but just that
we go further than this and recognize the
work of this committee and Of its counsel
rs being the influence which is contrib

upheayals throughout the entire country.
Mr. Lexow's committee, Mr.. Goff and his
associates do not stand in need Of our
commendation, but it is pleasure as well

with earnest cordiality.
IL may Furthermore be promised that
any structures that we may feel II neces

not enter into the question with us.

Consular Service Reform

From the New York Tribune.
The need Of reform In our consular
service has long been evident to intelli-
gent observers. Congress now has a
chance OF bringing it about by enRctlug
bill prepared oy the Civil Service Com
mission, with the aid Of the Hon. Henry
White, for many years our Secretary OF
Legation at London. Few men are better
qualified than Mr. White to deal with
this subject judioiously and impartially.
It Is proposed to submit the bill TO those
experienced consuls who have beer
allowed to remain In the service from
whom valuable suggestions will doubtless
be received

Parhhurst is Right.

From tho Philadelphia Inquirer.
Dr. Parkhurst Is clearly right Ia his
contention that Superintendent Bgrnas,
OF the New York Police Department,
should be put upon the stand by the
Lexow committee and made 60 tell what
be knew about the police corruption or
perjure himself. Dr. Parkhurst Is
clearly right when he insists that It was
not possible for that corruption TO
flourish under the superintendent's very
nose without the latter being aware OF
the fact And DR.. Parkhurst is also
right when he says that superintendent

for the reforms demanded by the people
Is the same man who looked on unmovsd
while corruption ran riot In his depart
