Did any one who has followed she
political movements III New York
doubt that Roosevelt would be elect
ed temporary chairman Of the State
Convention? When Barnes Jr.
Woodruff and Sherman lined them
selves up against popular sentiment
it was a foregone conclusion they
would be thrown down, as they have
been. Insurgency is not rampant in
the country, but a determination by
the people that there must be less
corruption in politics, cleaner men in
high places and more Difference
shown to will of the people is, and if
the bosses will not see 1t they win
be cast down and out. The spirit is
abroad and though Pennsylvania is
seemingly content with her condi-
tion unless some political methods
are changed she will arouse and
ehake of her thrsldom and declare
her Independents.
1t is a curious fact that those who
have long run a machine cannot tell
when it is getting out of geaF TO
change the simile they cannot read
the signs of the times.

DEAFNESS CANNOT BE CURED

DEAFNESS CANNOT BE CURED
by local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
Theie is only one way TO cure deafness,
and that is by constitutional remedies.
Deafness is caused by an infiamed con
dition Of the mucous lining of the Eu-
stachian Tube. When this tube is in
famed you have rumbling sound or
imperfect hearing, and when it IL en-
tirely closed, Deafness is the result,
and unless the Inflammation can be
taken out and this tube restored 10 its
normal condition, hearing will be de-
stroyed forever; nine cases out Of ten
are caused by Catarrh, which is moth
ing but an infiamed condition Of the
mucous surfaces.
We will give One hundred Dollars
for any case Of Deafness (caused By ca
tarrh) that cannot be cured by Hall a
Cstarrh Cure. Send for circulars, free.
