Deafness Cannot be Cured.

reach the diseased portion Of the ear.
There is only one way to cure deafness,
and that is by constitutional remedies.
Deafness is caused by an infiamed con-
dition of the mucuous lining of the
Eustachian Tube. When this tube is
inhamed you have a rumbling sound or
imperfect hearing, and when it is en-
tirely closed, Deafness Is the result,
and unless the Inflammation can be
taken out and this tube restored to Its
normal condition, hearing will be de-
stroyed forever; nine cases out of ten
are caused by Catarrh, which is moth
ing but an inHamed condition OF the

CITY WINS PAVING CASE.

Word has been received here that
Judge Belden OF Racine has decided
the case of Helen Platt against the
city in favor OF the city. Miss Platt
appealed from a special assessment
made against her lot at 10th and Com
mercial streets for the 1910 paving.
The manner of making the assessment
was particularly attacked. The case
was tried by former city attorney Hou-
gen and E. G. Nash at the January
term of 1911. The city could not learn
then just what Miss Platt objected to-,
so the city fortified its case at every
possible point of attack. Later Mr..
Nash and city attorney Kelley filed
briefs and arguments. The city now
wins on every point. The decision es-
tablishes the constitutionality of the
paving law of 1909 and the regularity
of the paving proceedings which is i'm
portant just now when similar proceed
ings are to be had and further assess
ments made.

BRICK PAVING WINS.

The city council met in adjourned
special session last Monday evening
to decide what kind of paving shcil be
laid this summer on the four streets to
be paved. The rivalry between as
phalt and brick had become quite in
tense. The asphalt people had pre-
sented petitions signed by the owners
of majority of the frontage on Wash
ington and York streets. These were
apparently regular, and If actually SO
would require three-fourth' major
ity of the council to decide on any
other paving. The brick people made
no claims OF having any legal petitions.
They had informal expressions OF Opin-
ions favoring brick. 1t was understood
that the council was in favor OF follow
ing any decided preference of the own
ers of abutting property whether ex-
pressed ir formal legal petitions or
otherwise. One owner on York street
filed note requesting to be changed
from asphalt to brick. Four owners
on South Tenth changed from brick to
asphalt. Allowing these changes and
regarding only present sentiment so
far as same could be gathered, brick
and asphalt were evenly divided on
York street and North Tenth street,
and almost evenly divided on South
Tenth street, with margin OF about
so feet in favor of brick. Washington
street was unanimous for asphalt.
The council then adopted resolutions
favoring brick on South Tenth street,
North Tenth street and York street,
and awarding the contract for the paw
ing on those streets to the Schuette
Cement Construction Company. Brick
carried on North Tenth and York
streets by vote of II to l, Rugowski
dissenting. South Tenth street was
carried for brick by Ii ayes. A resolu-
tion was then introduced deciding upon
asphalt for Washington street and
awarding the contract for that street
to the White Construction Company.
A representative of that company arose
and asked that they be not required to
come here for two blocks Of paving.
The council thereupon adjourned the
special meeting for one week leaving
the matter of Washington street open
for later decision.

The blue books will not be distribut-
ed to the schools through the superin-
tendent's office this year. The legis-
lature for some reason saw fit to make
different arrangement for their distri-
button. They are distributed to the
district clerks directly from the Office
of Supt. OF Public Property. In order
to simplify matters the superintendent
will supply blank forms and send them
to the clerks to be filled out and sent in
directly to Madison. Upon receipt of
such application blue book will be
sent to the school clerk who should de-
posit it in the school Mt once.

ANOTHER wall FROM MAC.

Once again the Pilot skinned" the
Daily News in bidding for the printing
Of the ballots for the county, and, of
course, Mac had to play the aorehead.
The trouble with Mac is that he has
no more knowledge of a cost system
than he has Of English grammar land
you have only to read his paper to see
how limited that is) hence his bid was
about S25 higher than the next highest
bid. But we haven't time nor space to
devote to this parasitic lickspittle and
cringing servitor. Suffice 1t to say that
he should be sent to a place where
fools are killed.

The superintendent has sent out this
week posters explaining the manner Of
testing corn in box for termination.
A cut of the method with proper ex-
planation is given. This poster is to
be posted in the school room and the
best possible use made of it. Seed corn
this year has a very low termination
test and therefore farmers are advised
to bs careful of the seed they SOW.
The matter of taking up this work
with the children is the only way the
superintendent knows of to reach the
farmer, hence the purpose of the cir
cu!ar. Every teacher should perform
this test in his school with his pupils.
Then every farmers boy should per-
form it at home for his father before
seeding.
These circulars are furnished by the
Crop Improvement Committee of Chi
cage.
The average seed ear of corn has 800
kernels, which, If all should grow,
would produce 800 stalks, which should
produce 800 ears of corn. 800 ears of
corn would make about bushels,
which at the moderate price of so
cents per bushel, would be worths%. 90.
If farmers do not get somewhat near
this result there is something the mat
ter with the seed, hence the necessity
OF the Test.
Together with these seed testing
posters was sent out circulars explain
ing the Teachers Retirement Fund
Law. The circulars are self-explana-
tory.

LETTER FROM THE ARMY.-In last
weeks paper we noticed that soldier
named Henry Smith, from this county,
was wounded in skirmish with the
rebels near Nashville, Tenn. Since
then we have seen letter from w.
M. Farnum to his father in Two Riv-
ers, giving graphic account Of the
affair. Young FarnIm was in the
thickest of the fight, and although
hemmed in by several rebels, he
fought his way out without scar.
At one time the rebels were within a
few rods Of him, and discharged sever
al muskets at his person, but he proved
bullet-prooi. Corporal Smith, who was
wounded slightly, has parents residing
in Two Greeks, In this county. The
gallant conduct of these two young
men must be highly gratifying to their
friends.

TWENTY-FIVE YEARS AGO.

The Milwaukee Lake Shore & West
ern folks have finally issued circulars
calling in its passes,s They have the
call on fellow and ''he can't play no
bluff game" There is no way under
heaven left open to an editor now to
ride free, as discriminating favors to
tramps are not permitted and he can
not ring himself in as one Of the species
Of that genus. The only way is to
waltz up to Jere Collins and deposit q
sufficient amount OF the coin OF the
realm for transporting purposes. But
he has the glorious privilege of suing
the railroad company for an accident
to his person a right hitherto denied
him. The surrender of the pass may
be blessing in disguise and the acci-
dent racket may be mine OF wealth.
Goodbye old pass. II is sad parting
with you. II the Interstate law had
only made the thing half measure
and called in the conditions on the
back there would be no manifestations
Of grief. Any one giving information
at this Office of the best walking route

bered.
