nually n number OF amendments are
offered to the people regarding which
the utmost Indifference IS usually ex.
hibited in public discussion and at thu
polls. II the constitution were not
changing rapidly enough to suit popu.
lar opinion. the process Of change
would not be so much a matter OF In.
difference as II is. and supposedly
popular propositions would not be SO
frequently voted down. But the fact
Is that the people get. and quickly, too,
every modification that they really
want and a good many more that they
care little about. There are some
states. to be sure. in which amend.
ment is to difficult. but the remedy
in those states is TO make the process
easy. as IL is in New York
Colonel Roosevelt's recall as n
means OF amending the constitution is
also open TO the objection that under
81 the question Unconstitutional policy.
instead of being presented simply and
directly TO the public. would be com.
plicated by personal and emotional
considerations. Instead OF voting sole
ly upon the question OF continuing one
OF the constitutional restraints, the
people would have Npper-most in
their minds the loss OF John Jones
leg and the sufferings that were en-.
tailed by his being without n legal rem.
edy. Everything else would be obse.
cured by the humsn side OF the legal
case in which the public was asked 10
overthrow the courts decision. The
policy OF a whole state would be pres.
ented for consideration in the worst
possible way. namely. as II worked In
a single instance-perhaps an except.
ional instance.

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
infiamed condition of the mucous lin
ing of the eustachian tube. When this
tube is inf1amed you have a rumbling
sound or imperfect hearing, and when
it is entirely closed, deafness is the re-
suit, and unless the Inflammation can
be taken out and this tube restored to
its normal 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. We will give
one hundred dollars for any case of
deafness Caused by catarrh) that can

POLICE IN DILEMMA.
Protests against the advance of the
undesirable women of the 'levee dis
trict" on the residence neighborhoods
of Chicago were lodged with the po-
lice last night at nearly every out
lying station. The situation placed
the police department in a dilemma
as well as the women in question.
The police were given instructions
by Chief McWeeny to prevent the
routed vice army from entering the
residence districts. and the states at
torney had previously had an inter-
view with the chief seeking his CO.
operation in keeping the places closed
once they had been raided.
This condition placed the "undesir-
ables" in the position of being driven
one way by the state and another by
the city. They feared arrest IL they
went back to their former quarters
and faced the same proposition II
they ventured to find homes else
where. The action of the states at
torney has already resulted in many
OF the women leaving the city.
