MAY COST FLACK HIS JOB.
Frick Objects to Transfer Of Baltimore
Department TO Annapolis.

After the original measure had mys-
teriously disappeared in the way meas
usres often disappear mere during the
last days of legislative session, the
Senate passed substitute bill Great
ing State Department of Legislative
Reference, the head OF which is TO be
the head of the present Baltimore City
Department of Legislative Reference
or to name him, Or. II. T. Flack
Senator Frick opposed the bill, which
passed the House several days ago and
will become law as soon az Governor
Harrington attaches his signature TO il.
In expressing the hope that the bill
would no pass, Snator Prick explained
that he objected OF the measure he
cause it proposes TO take city depart
ment and transfer it TO Annapolis for
three months during every year.
Senator Frick paid high tribute 70
the efficiency of Dr. Flack, but limited
rather broadly that the latter, in the
event of the passage Of the bill. may
have to choose between serving the
city AMI serving the State. Other
members OF the Senate spoke Of the
splendid assistance gwen inem ny Ut,
Flacks department. and the further
explanation IVES made that it is not
proposed to transfer the whole city de
partment TO Annapolis, but that Dr..
Flack is to supervise the State depart
men. The bill carries an appropria-
ton OF $500 a year
The purpose behind the idea Of es-
tablishing a State Department OF Leg
isIative Reference IS to have a bureau
to which members OF the General As
sembly may appeal when desiring IN
formation as to the purpose and the
status OF bills and other legislative
matters. / was said that thirty states
have such bureaus operated amounts
/ ranging from $4,000 TO $4,000 Balti-

On Published Account of Mothers
Circle Meeting.

Dear Editor was much pleased
with your article giving an account of
Fridays meeting of the Mothers
Congress-" | was truly delighted
when learned that the subject of
Compulsory Medican Inspection in
our Public Schools" was to be discuss
cd but l was greatly disappointed
when / found that the party designated
TO show its merits had not understood
the subject and had prepared her re-
marks on Medical Inspection in Our
Public Schools" hence they were en-
tirely irrelevant to the subject of
Compulsory Medical Inspection" and
the opponents were left TO discuss the
subject without any parliamentary
opposition.
am greatly in hopes that some ad
vocate of Compulsory Medical Inspec-
ton. etc. will make her views public,
rs am extremely DESTROYS OF knowing
how any violation of the Constitution
of the United States can be justified.
Thanking you for your fearless ae-
count OF the proceedings of the meet
ing. / am respectfully.

Catarrh Deafness Cannot Be Cured

by local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
There's only one way to cure catarrh-
al deafness. and that is by constitu-
itonal remedy Catarrhal deafness is
caused by an inflamed condition of the
mucuous lining of The Eustachian
Tube When this tube is infiamed you
have a rumbling sound or imperfect
hearing, and when il is entirely closed,
Deafness is tho result. Unless the in
fiammation can be reduced and this
tube restored TO its normal condition
hearing will be destroyed forever
Many cases of deafness are caused by
catarrh. which is an inflGmed condi-
ton of the mucous surfaces. Halls
Catarrh Cure acts through the blood on
the mucous surfaces of the system.
We will give One Hundred dollars
for any case of Catarrh Deafness that
cannot be cured by Halls Catarrh
