Seaside Club By
 Big VOte Puts
 Ban On Bar Plan
No Cafe or Grill For Exclusive OrganiZation-AnnualD Dues
 Are Raised

The swamping of the proposition to install a grill and cafe in the Seaside club, and the raising of the annual dues from $25 to s36 were the chief features of the. special meeting call ed to act on amendments to the con- stItution of the club last evening.
 The agitation for the introd uction of a grill and cafe, which has become almost perennial with the club, lack ed enthusiastic support of late, and when the amendment was voted upon it was overwhelmingly defeated.
 In keeping with this action, the amendment to the constitution mak- ing the annual dues $40 was indetin- itely tabled. The sum had been made larger with a view to providing for the expenses of the proposed grill. With the elimination of this proposi- tion the larger increase was not deem> ed necessary, but the amendment fix ing the dues at $36 instead of $25 to meet the contingent expenses of the club was adopted.
 The board of governors has an nounced the annual ball of the club for Thursday, Feb. 15.

UNITED HIBERIANs' BALL.

The committee having in charge the coming concert and ball of the United Hibernians to be given on February ninth at Eagles hall held a meeting last night and with the ex- ception of confirming definitely the appearance of a noted vaudeville en- tertainer with whom they are nego- tiating arrangements were practical ly completed and all indications point to the affair being the most success full ever offered under the auspices of this society.
 From the demand made for tickets it would appear that the committee struck a popular chord in arranging the entertainment as Miss Margaret Cummings and the Messrs. D. J. Sul- livan, Thos. Mack and Wn. V. Walsh have been so well received whenever they appeared in the past that they have a host of admirers who will tax the capacity of the hall in an en- deavor to show their appreciation for their services. In addition to these local favorites, outside talent has been secured and nothing is being left undone which might add to the evenings amusement

MAYOR FISHER IGNORED
Wesleyan Professor Tells Working
 men What They Should Do.

Hartford. Feb. eProf Willard c. Fisher. of Wesleyan university, for mer mayor of Middletown. was last night presented with a union card en- titling him to a life membership in the Hartford Central Labor union, by Sal Sontheimer, president of that or ganization- In presenting the card MT. Sontheimer said that it was given to Prof. Fisher in recognition of the work he had done in the interest of labor at the last general assembly. Prof. Fisher, he said. had refused to take compensation for his efforts, either from the union or the state.
 In his speech of acceptance Prof Fisher spoke of the work of the last legislature and denounced the far mer members for their failure to en- act the workingmen's compensation bill after it had been passed by the Senate. He said he was a Democrat, but that there were several Republi- cans interested. in labor well as Democrats and advised the labor men if they couldn't ret what they wanted from the Democrats to go to the Re publicans, in fact, to go to whatever party it could get results from

DEAFNESS,
 HEAD NOISES
New Book on New MethOd- How to Recover Hearing Without Drugs or
 Electric Devices
Message of Hope and Joy to
 All Afflicted Persons

There is hope of a welI-based kind which should bring joy and ultimate contentment to muItitudes of persons who have been troubled for years with deafness or head noises
 Dr. Coutant, an able specialist. has evolved a newly perfected method for treating cases where the hearing Is not perfect or where the sufferer is haraRs- ed by ringing. roaring. buzzinR or other .disagreeable noises in the head. It ap- pears that about 95 out of every hun dred cases are from causes amenabIe to proper treatment
 Dr. COutant oOes not advocate the use of drugs or electricity. He relies chiefly upon co0perating with Nature in bringing about a speedy and effectu- al cure of morbid auraI conditions Re marka bIe cures are reported. many of them being Tn the cases of deafness that had existed for about 20 to 70 years With the description given In his newly published book. the learned docto provides long series of letters, written by per~Ons WI had been given up as hopeless. and who were speedily cured "t home without loss of time and without Inconvenience by pr. Coutant's natural home method.
 Anyone who Is interested can write to a dozen or hundred of the persons who. not. long ago.. were victims of deafness or head d-noises tor bothI and who are now delighted to proclaim themselves as marvellOusly benefited or completely cured.
 Dr. COutant Is not one of the ire spOnsible Quacks. of which there is such q large number. but is a reput- able. responsible. licentiate. practising physician with a third of a century's active experience.
 The doctor believes there are many who are troubled with dea fneSs. etc. who might be permanently freed from their inability to hear and from tin nitus (noisesI if they would do as oth- CTS have successfully done, merely fol- lowing the advice given.
 The book. which any reader can ob- tain from the author. pr. George k. COutant. 2G9 D. Station E. New York. N. Y. has been declared by many to be worth it's weight in gold. One needs only to write for it and the treatise will promptly come in plain wrapper.

IL you know any harder job than get
ting out the first sentence of a newspaper
article that is meant to grip the attention
of every newspaper reader, I wish you
would tell 1t to me. Here l have been
staring this typewriter in the face for the
last half hour trying to think of something
to say which would make you sit up and
take notice. and nothing seems to appeal
to me more than just what l am writing
now. IL it had / would have tried it.
What have I got to say that is so i'm
portant? Well, listen! No, now,-wait,-
oh, here, let me get this story started
right. This thing is getting away from me.
Once upon a time-I think that is the
right way to begin, and l tell you now
this is no fairy story as you Will soon see,
here, here, let's begin again. Once
upon a time, then, there was a man
named Bagley-and this was not such a
long time ago, either. Well, now where
are we? Oh, yes, Bagley. Well, Bagley
was out picking persimmons some consid-
erable distance from Ocala. He didn
anticipate any particular trouble, Bagley
didn't. You see, one does not look upon
persimmon picking as an extra hazardous
profession. Bagley, however, let his foot
slip just when he shouldn't. and the trou-
BILE which Bagley was not expecting, ar
rived. When Bagley's foot slipped, all the
rest of Bagley slipped, and as the foot
slipped first it reached ground first and
Bagley came down on top of it. And when
the folks found him Bagley was uncon-
scious, and the bones of one of his legs
were sticking out through the flesh and
skin. They got him to the house. Two or
three days passed before they took him to
the Marion County Hospital in Ocala. BY
that time his wound was badly infected
gangrene had set in, and if you had seen
it, you would have said that the only way
to save Bagley would be to amputate that
leg. But they have some doctors connect
ed with the Marion County Hospital who
do not amputate unless 1t is absolutely
necessary. They do everything else first

munity. And,-oh, we'll, 'nough said.
Four thousand dollars is needed, and need
ed at once, to go on with and finish this
work. And what are you going to do
about it? Think it over. Here is some
thing for you to do, the doing Of which
should give you intense satisfaction. 1t
is the work of the Great Physician, who,
when He was on earth found his only
pleasure going about doing good, healing
those who were afflicted with divers
diseases. And He left you an example to
follow in his footsteps.
So when on next Thursday-Thanksgiv-
ing Day-a sweet-faced, pretty girl way
lays you either on the street or at the fair,
and says tag, you're it, you say, sure,
I'm it, And then produce. See her
smile when your hand steals towards your
cash pocket And know, Mr.. Man, is max
cash pocket. And know, Mr.. Man, in max
ing her happy, you are making others
happy, you are doing a good deed, one in
which you may justly take pride, and one
which, some day, who knows, may help in
saving the life of some one who is very
near and dear to you. Today Marion
county expects every man to do his duty.
And if that sweet-faced girl doesn't meet
you, you hunt her up, and make her heart
glad as we'll as your own, by handing her
good liberal donation. And if you can
not hunt her up, just sit right down today,
mind you, today, and mail your donation
to Ben Rheinauer, Treasurer, Ocala, Fla
And make it liberal, make it liberal. You
will not miss it, and you will never regret
it. Come, this is not small thing 1t is
tremendously big thing. So let the dol
lars come, please. Dollars, you will notice

tagious. Its influence on the community
is far reaching in the way of usefulness.
1t teaches people how to keep well. The
person who is treated there has been
taught lessons in hygiene and when he
returns home he teaches the family those
same lessons. Thus much good is ac-
complished. Not only is it an absolute
necessity to this community, but the peo-
pie of the community should be tremen-
dously proud that Marion county can
boast such an institution.
Help Needed
Now, take another look at the picture
on this page. That is the new Marion
County Hospital, located on South Orange
street. You see, the old, rented building
in the city has been outgrown. 1t was
never possible to do the most efficient
work in it. So this new and ideal site has
been purchased, situated on a hill which
overlooks a great stretch of beautiful
country. The choice of location, the type
of building, and the extent of the equip
ment is all that could be desired. The
design Of the building, its interior appoint
ments and equipment have been supervis-
I'd By physicians and nurses who are fa-
miliar with the problems OF the sick. This
new institution is destined to go a great
amount of good.
But a hospital, though it does great
good, is not financial success. 1t is not
paying investment. The Marion County
Hospital is doing more than $500 worth
OF charity work every year. 1t has $4,000
in outstanding accounts which will never
be collected, because those whom it has
helped, whose lives it has saved, are not
able TO pay their bills.
Now look at the picture again. The
building stands there with only its skeleton
completed. And work has been stopped
on it. 1t stopped more than two months
ago. The question for you to decide is,
shall ii remain as it is? The money in
hand has been paid out until it is all gone.
And there it stands, appealing to be
finished for the benefit of the entire CON-
