PUT HUSK MATTRESSES
UhDER" THE LAWS BAN

Minneapolis, October 30.-Uniform
hotel laws throughout northwestern
, states will be urged upon their vari-
Gus legislatures at the next session
| by a joint movement of the United
Commercial Travellers and the Hotel
Mems association, as the result of
meeting of representatives of the
two organizations in Minneapolis
yesterday.
1t was agreed that bill should be
drafted by a special committee in
the near future. States represented
at the conference, held at the West
hotel, were Minnesota, Nebraska,
Iowa, North and South Dakota. Sew
eral hotel inspectors from these
states were also present
Some of the features embodied in
! the proposed hotel laws are: The
creation of a hotel commission in
each state, the governor to act as
| the commissioner and to appoint
| deputy commissioners whose duties
shall be similar to those performed
by the state hotel inspector; the
t fixing of a license fee and a uni
form penalty for hotel proprietors
who violate the law regarding clean
Illness and sanitation.
Bans Permanent Storm Windows
Under the proposed law no room
can be used for sleeping room
which does not contain a window
opening to, the outside of the build
ing, This section will prevent the
permanent fastening of storm win
dOws If is further n1Oyidpd that
every hotel less than three stories
high and. having less than fifteen
rooms on the third floor shall keep
a rope or automatic fire escape of
sufficient length to reach to the
ground in each outside room. Where
there are. more than fifteen rooms
stationary fire escapes must be pro-
vided
The proposed law also puts ban
on mattresses made from moss, sea
grass, excelsior, husks or shoddy. 1t
was held that these materials were
breeding places for vermin and that
they belonged in the insanitary class
of materials.
Following the conference represen-
tatives of the travelling men passed
a motion favoring any measure de-
signed to protect hotel men against
crookedness and thievery to which
they are subjected in the conduct Of
their business. The travelling men
also said they favored placing on the
statute books liability laws of a
just and equitable nature that will
be alike fair to the hotel men and
the honest travelling public.

Taft is the republican candidate for
president. He was nominated as
fairly as any candidate for president
was ever nominated No one who
has made an investigation of the
facts will dispute this statement. He
has made a good president, is a
clean, able, patriotic man, has the
courage of his convictions, and the
country was never more prosperous

A New and Valuable Book ON the
Subject Of
DEAFNESS
Ringing Noises in the Head.

Nlhkihk NOlStn IN the utdus
When one is gradually becoming
deaf or is troubled with those miser-
able noises in the bead, which are so
often allied with deafness. he seeks
in vain for a plain, easily understood
book upon the subject that is so all
important TO him. He can get no
nearer than the purchase of medi-
cal work. which is so technical that
it cannot be understood.
To meet a long-felt want, an able
physician formerly a county medical
society president OF New York; has
written a treatise in simple, clear
language explaining deafness and
head-noises, showing how they de-
velop, how insidiously dangerous are
the causes. and. best of all. the de-
tails OF a home treatment which has
restored the hearing of legions of
persons of all ages who thought they
were doomed to lasting deafness
This book points out the way TO
better health and to placidity OF mind,
including the elimination OF nervous
troubles. The author holds that over
nine-tonths OF all the cases of deaf
ness are amenable to the new home
treatment,
Remarkable cures are heine report
ed after persons were deaf for years
and had almost abandoned hope

tise will be mailed free by writing
