Iazness is sign of mental nferiority. accord
ing to the Rev. DR.. Merle St. CrOix Wright. He
talked about the socalled inferior races before the
League for Political Education yesterday morning
and endeavored to show that their inferorty was
not yet proved.

ted 'but who does? Do you? If you could lie under
a banana all day, and eat part of the leaf and
fan yourself with the other, do you think you
would choose do anything else? That is the re-

It is only recently DIR. Wright further remarked,
that the white has been any different from the
lower races in the matter of work. Not so long
ago work considered disgraceful rather than
meritorious. and Europeans who attempted 10 found

dent Roosevelt directed Secretary Cor
! telyou, the senior cabinet officer in
Washington and thus the acting head
of the administration, to have all ex-
ecutive departments to place the flags

order was Immediately promulgated
and probably will be in effect for 80

| Secretary CortelyOu, who served as
confidential stenographer to Presi-
dent Cleveland, expressed himself as
greatly shocked. He said:
| Although not entirely unexpected
at this time by those who knew Mr..
Cleveland's real condition, his death
is none the less a keen sorrow. He
was fine American type, rising from
obscurity to the highest office in the
peoples gift through sheer force of
character-a character so rugged, so
/ loyal, and so sincere as to excite not
only the respect and affection of those
who were privileged to be his friends,
but to those who were opposed to him
for political or other reasons. l know
of no man in our history more un-
flinched in the performance of what
| he believed to be his duty. No man
realized more fully the ideal of an in
corruptible public servant. His ex-
ample has been most wholesome in
these years of social and economic
unrest. and the Influence of his calm,
reasonable and hopeful spirit has
made for better understanding Of the
needs and responsibilities of our citi-
zenshp. His death is verrv great
J loss to the country"

Deafness Cannot Be Cured

by local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion OF the ear.
There is only one way to cure deaf
ness, and that is by constitutional
remedies Deafness is caused by an
inhamed condition of the mucous lin
ing OF the Eustachian Tube. When
this tube is inflamed you have rum
bling sound or imperfect hearing, and
when it is entirely closed, Deafness is
the result, and unless the infamma-
ton can be taken out and this tube
restored to it's normal condition, hear
ing will be destroyed forever; nine
cases out of ten are caused by Catarrh,
which is nothing but an inf1amed con-
dition of tho mucous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars
for any case of Deafness (caused by
catarrh) that cannot be cured by
Halls Catarrh Cure. Send for circu-
lars, free.
