Deafness Can Not Be Cured

by local applications as they can not reach the
diseased portion of the ear. There is only one
way to cure deafness, and that is by constitu-
tional remedies. Deafness is caused by an in
famed condition of the mucous lining of the
eustachian tube. When this tube is intiamed
you have rumbling found or imperfect hear
the result, and unless the inflammation can be
taken out and this tube restored to its norman
condition, hearing will be destroyed forever;
nine cases out of ten are caused by catarrh.
which is nothing but an infiamed condition of
the mucous surfaces.

The Democratic party is a party of
progress and stands for progressive
measures as applied to the settlement
and well being of our progressive
economic development. It stands for
the election of United States Senators
by direct vote of the people; for an
income tax amendment for sanitary
and wholesome laws governing labor,
and for the Initiative and Referendum.
It's progressive ideas and policies of
the past enabled it to reap the victory
of 1910. 1t cannot afford TO retreat
now. 1t must nominate progressive
candidates for president, congressman
and all offices having to do with these
measures. We, therefore. instruct our
delegates to the Baltimore convention
to vote against any candidate who is
opposed to the Initiative and Referen-
dunn or any of the reforms of profres-
sive Democracy.
We commend and endorse our ad-
ministrative officers in their direction
