CHICAGO NOW CLEANER CITY Reporter Police Chief Credited With Effective Work. CHICAGO, Dec. la— William Hale j Thompson, mayor of Chicago, called j Charles Fltzmorrls, former newspaper ' reporter. In his office and gave him the j job of chief of police and this assign- : ment: “Clean Chicago up. Pot every gunman, criminal and bootlegger in Jail.’’ This happened only recently, but today Chicago is cleaner than any time In years. * Fltzmorrls, only 35, Is the youngest metropolitan police chief in the and It is generally admitted he'is putting hit new Job over with a bang. First of all he called his police force In and said: “You are now starting on a clean slate. Charges of inefficiency haTe been made ngainst many of yon. I’ll forget all that now. Every man must make good or get ont of the department. Chicago must be clean. ’’ Next, Fltzmorrls served notice on gamblers, bootleggers anrfi criminals that Chicago no longer was th*!r stamping ground. The demknonad did not heed • So Fltzmorrls started raids of gambling dives and vice dens. All those found in the places were taken to police headquarters. The whole city was Invited to come to Jail the next day to look over the crowd to see if any could be Identified with any recent crime. Bertilion records were made of every man taken. Since then, raids have netted hundreds and the criminal class is about to "play quits." realising the now chief means business. On Fltamorris’ first day as police chief he “scooped” the whole police department by going out and arresting a bandit who had robbed a bank. The bandit had been sought by police for several weeks. No amount of influence will get any Chicagoan out of a "Jam” now, the new Chief claims. NEWSPAPER SUES GUARD OFFICERS Asks $25,000 for False Arrest of Editor.

Doctors Stand Amazed at Power ot Bon-Opto to Make Weak Eyes Strong-According to Dr. Lewis Guarantee to Strengthen Eyesight 50% in One Week’s Time in Many Instances. A Fkb* Pre*r-rlpH n Ton Cnn Han Filled and I'm at Homo Philadelphia, Pa. Victim* of eye strain and other ey# weaknesses, and those who wear jrlaaaa# wUI be glad to know that accord in g to Dr. Lewis there la real hope aM help for them. Many whose eyee were falling say they have had their eyes restored by this remarkable prescription and many who once wore glasses say they hare thrown them away. One man **7*i u,tn * It: "I was almost blJid. Could not see to read at all. Now I can read everything without my glasses and my eyes do not hurt anv more. At night they would pain dreadfully. Now they feel fine all the time. It was like a miracle to me.” A lady who used it says ■ atmosphere seemed hasy with or without glasses! but after using this prescription for 15 caye everything seems clear. I can read ers* line print without glasses. Another who used it says: "I was both•csd with eye strain caused by overwork, tired eyes which induced fierce Headaches. I hare worn glasses for several years, both for distance and work, and without them I could not read my , own name on an envelope or the tvpewriting on the machine before me. I can do both now and have discarded my long distance glasses altogether. I can count the fluttering leaves on the treeß •cross the street now, which for several years have looked like a dim green blur to me. I cannot expreis my Joy at what tt has dons for me.” It is believed that thousands who wear glasses can now discard them In a reasonable time and multitudes more will be able to strengthen their eye* so as to be spared the trouble and expense of srer getting glasses. Eye troubles of tneny descriptions may be wonderfully bsnefltted by the use of this prescription. Go to any active drug store and get a bottle of Bon-Opto tablets.

NOTE: Another prominent Phvsiclan to whom the above article was submitted, said: ‘‘Yes, the Bon-Opto prescription la truly a wonderful eye remedv. Its constituent ingredients are well known to eminent eye specialists and widely prescribed by them. I have used it very ’ successfully in mv own practice on patients whose eyes were strained through overwork or misfit glasses. 1 can highly recommend It In case of weak, watery, aching, smarting, Itching, burning eyes! red lids, blured visions or for eyes Inflamed from exposure to smoke, sun. dust or wind. It is one of the very few preparations I feel shonld be kept on r.and for regular use in almost every family." Bon-Opto. referred to above, is not a patent medicine or a secret remedy.

Kuhns Joined the organization at the first meeting. Mrs. Reiffel said that In addition to Mrs. Lysle the charter members are Mrs. Asa E. Ashcraft, Mrs. Dunn, Mrs. D. Spencer and herself. HOPES THEY WILL REALIZE MISTAKE. "I hope that the ladies will reaUxe their mistake,” said Mrs. Reiffel. “I regret very much the attitude which they have taken. They will not galu anything by it.” Mrs. Kuhns declared she wishes a cor-l-ect impression to be given the public that the women who are now calling themselves the South Side Women’s Club ere not such, but are individuals vrho are taking matters Into their own hands, and who do not represent the club. She expressed disapproval of Mrs. Reiffel s letter address*! to the board of works, saying that It haa long been known that antagonism exists between the council and the board of works and declared that Mrs. Relffel’s action bas made H Impossible to hope for the south side market. “Prior to her action the members of the council were the friends of the aouth side women. Ottr organization Is not Interested at present In obtaining this market, and If we were we would not proceed In such a manner.” Mrs. Kuhns expressed the opinion that she did not believe In “sensational” or “unladylike” methods of proeeedifre and that ’'conservative'’ action Is the beat. She declared the members who are now active in the South Side Women’s Club do not represent the original organization, being in the most part newly initiated to theVlub.
