Deafness Cannot Be Cured

BY local applications, as they cam
not reach the diseased portion of
the ear. There is only one way to
cure deafness, and that is by con-
stitutional remedies. Deafness is
caused by an inflamed condition of
the mucus lining of the Eustachian
Tube. When this tube gets iuflam-
ed you have rumbling sound or
imperfect hearing, and when it is
entirely closed deafness is the re-
suit, and unless the inflammation can
be taken out aud this tube restored
TO it's normal condition, hearing will
be destroyed forever; nine cases out
of ten are caused by catarrh, which
is nothing but an infamed condi-
tiou of the mucus surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dol
lars for any case of Deafness (caus-
ed by catakrh) that cannot be cur
ed by Halls catarrh Cure. Send

tanning an average, with a proiectile

The Water Board.

To the Editor of the Register.
Sir:-Observing some criticism in
the newspapers of late upon the propo-
sition of the Water Board, duly accepted
by Council, to devote $10,0 900 out of the
collections of delinquent water rents for
work house purposes, l desire to make a
few remarks in that and other eonnec-
tons.
when the present Board came into Of
Ace 1t found a debt of, l believe, $4,000
at theDollar Savings bank, and an over
check of more than $4,000 at the same
institution, legacies from the oid Board
and debts contracted unlawfully. The
over-check has been paid, and the
Board has probably SIS, 900 or $4,000
of cash on hand from delinquent col
lections alone. 1t is held - n or
two correspondents that this money, and
future collections to a sufficient total,
should be applied to the wiping out of
this debt in bank, and that the work
house proposition should wait.
| do not agree with this contention.
The debt now due in bank was created
without sanction of law. Even Coun-
ell was not asked for permission to
incur it, and had such permission been
sought and obtained it would have been
worthless, for the law of the State spe-
cifcally sets forth that municipalities
can only incur debts In n way-by
vote of the people. l do not under
stand that the present Water Board is
either morally or legally liable for this
debt OF the old Board. On the contrary,
I believe that obligation is a matter for
the exclusive attention of the members
OF the old Board, and that the present
officials should let it stand, and not
only that, but decline to even pay in
terest upon it, for such payment would
imply a recognition of the debt. 1t is
bad form for city Boards to rush the
city into debt at their pleasure without
authority. and past acts of that ma
ture ought to be sufficient to induce
the people, through Council, to call a
summary halt upon such a course. The
revenues of the Water Board are amply
sufficient to provide for running ex-
penses and legitimate improvements,
md have been for many years. even
