Legal opinion upholds Judge Walsh in his contention that the bonus asked by the High school teachers Is un- constitutional, according to, the state statutes Even from layman's point of view it is impossible to see how any board would have the right to give away gratis any monies de- rived from general taxation for g. specific purpose. General opinion seems to be that the teachers rather overdid the thing when they asked for a bonus and that their request was a weak subterfuge for a raise in the salary for which they are already under contract. Once a bonus sys- tenn is begun there is no limit. It is Lest that the school board refuse, to consider the plan.
 The board also acted wisely in not blindlv granting the salary increases asked. The board believes in giving recognition where it is earned by m eritorious work and before giving :ny salary boosts it will be satisfied that the increases given are deserved. r-aluc received is what the board will

Catarrhal Deafness Cannot Be Cured

by local applications, dis they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
There is only one way to cure ca
tarralhal deafness, and that is by
constitutional remedy. Catarrhal
Deafness is caused by an inflamed
condition of the mucous lining of the
Eustachian Tube. When this tube is
inflamed you have rumbling sound
OF, imperfect hearing, and when it is
entirely closed, Deafness is the re-
sule. Unless the inflammation 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 inflamcd condition of the mu-
cous surfaces. Halls Catarrh Medi-
cine acts thru the blood on the mu-
cous surfaces of the system.
