WARRINGTON, Sept. 4. 1876.
Editor Hdr:-I have been q subscriber of
your paper for ten years, and have never
asked you question before. would like
for you TO answer this question, as Ii is OF
importance. / am engaged in the notion
and fancy goods business, and went down
to AZ street last week to make my returns
for the personal tax, when the question was
asked me how much stock had on hand,
replied that had 81 100 worth OF goods ON
hand, and that owed 81 $50. The clerk then
marked $500 on my tax list, and asked him
If would have to pay anything. He said
yes; that be had deducted 500, which 1 was
allowed from the 81, 100, leaving $500, that 1
had to pay q tax on. told him tbat owed
the wholesale dealers s1,150 on my stock,
and that was more than my stock was worth.
He said 1t made no difference; 1 had to pay
a tax on the 500. Now, my question is, can
he tax me on $500, when owe 1,15O, which
is more than my stock is worth? Another
point Is, he did not give me any deductions
for three months provisions. 1 hope you
will be kind enough to give me an answer In
full, as / can depend on what THE STAR
says. SUBsCRIBER.
Subscriber is informed that all stock In
trade in excess of 5000 in value is taxed in
lieu of license tax, and according to his
own statement the assessment Is correctly
made.
The exemption for three months provis-
ions is only made when stock OF provisions

ing was afflicted with q severe cough and
pain In the breast, during which time she
tried many different medicines without any
beneficial result, and finally became so weak
and debilitated that for six weeks she was

her recovery. As q last resort we gave your
Visitors Bdl.dm Of WId Cherry trial with

cough b sd become so violent and distressing
that she was unable to rest q single hour,

have used the Balsam In our family with
efficacy in all diseases OF the lungs. have
recommended 1t to our neighbOrs In all
