is what they offer: $500 re-
ward for a case of Catarrh
which they cannot cure. They
mean it. They're willing to
take the risk-they know their
medicine. By its mild, sooth-
ing, cleansing and healing
properties, it produces per-
feet and permanent cures of
the worst cases of chronic Ca
tarrh in the Head. It's doing
it every day, where everything
else has failed. No matter
how bad your case, or of how
long standing, you can be
cured. You're sure of that
or of $500. You can't have
both, but you'll have one or

Mr.. Roys's land increased 7W per
cent, not because he improved 1t, but
because other people near him improved
their lands and the population near him
increased in number.
If Mr.. Roys held his land idle-and
he probably did-then he paid less taxes
on his land than the farmer next to him
who owned the same amount of land.
Is that right? Both the man who
uses land and the man who holds 1t
idle or will not let others use It, II
they have land OF equal value should
pay the same tax on 1t because they
both have possession of the same
amount Of that article which every hu-
man being needs
II we tax houses we will have fewer
houses. But we want more houses, do
We not? Should not every man have a
home? Then, why tax houses? II we
tax land according to its value then it
will not pay to speculate in land, and it
will not pay to keep it idle. tits neces-
sary fer men to use land in order to live.
So If taxing land will make the owners
nut 1t to use. then those who are idle
will find employment and the tramp will
vanish out of the land. Land is meas
ured by its value. not by its area The
value Of land is made by the increase Of
population in the locality where the
land is situated In one part Of town

County Official Paper
The Indian Messiah.

The Western Piutes have prevailed
upon the Walker Lake Prophet to
aimit the time in which the Indian
Messiah is to appear on earth. He
has accordingly told them that unless
the Messiah comes before the grass is
four inches high next Spring they
need not look for him at all and all
that has been said regarding his pow
ers is cheap dam lie." The Prophet
got the idea Of Messiah from an Ad-
ventist family with whom he had
lived some years ago. They believed
Jesus Christ was going to reappear on
earth and that all the Indians who
have died for generations would come
to life again and rule the country.
EmIssaries from the Bannocks, Chey-
ennes and Sioux came to Nevada a
year ago to see and hear the Prophet
and upon returning home excited
their people with the reports which
they gave of him and his wonderful
powers one Of which was to cause the
only rain storms of note that occurred
in 1889. Now, if the Messiah does
not appear and resurrect the dead
Indians before the grass is four
inches high next Spring the Piutes
will admit that they have been de-
ceived and most likely will scalp the
prophet Silver State.

KING HUMBERT, of Italy, is a man of
unusual will power. After having for

A PARCEL or DATES.

THE first piano was Invented as far
back as 1716.
FANS were used by the ancients and
are distinctly mentioned as being used
in 1876 B. G.
DRUMS were beaten Tor the first time
on the entrance Of Edward III. into
Calais, in 1347.
IT is believed that the hollyhock was
brought to Europe from China as early
as the year 1878.
THE sign of equality was first used in
1857 by a sharp mathematician, who
substituted it to avoid repeating equal
to-"
ROLLER skates were Arst patented by
a London fruiterer named Tyers in
1928 and his pattern had one line of
wheels.
LOCKS were used by the Egyptians,
Greeks, Romans and Chinese. Du Cange
mentions locks and padlocks as early
as 1881.
THE art Of printing was introduced
into Scotland about the year 1903. 1t
had taken more than thirty years to
travel from England.
JUSTICES of the peace were first ap-
pointed in England by Edward I'LL, in
the year 1927, and in 1861 they were
empowered to try felonies, while their
wages were fixed by Richard II. in 1880.
GUIDO, of Arezzo, Benedictine
monk, is said to have invented the
modern method of writing music by des-
ignating the different sounds of the oc-
tave by points distributed upon lines
and spaces, in 1922.
TRADEMARKS were known in ancient
Babylon; China had them as early as
1000 Il. c.; they were authorized in En-
gland in 1900; Gutenberg, the inventor
of printing, is said to have had law
suit over his trademark. ...-
In England, in 1887, ga grant was
issued unto Jane Vanef, widow and
hoop-petticoat maker, of the sole use
and benefit Of her new invention of q
machine or joint hoops so contrived
that she can bring an hoop coat of four
yards wide into the compass of two
yards Or less, for ladies to go into coach
es and charles without any manner of
trouble or Inconvenience"
AMONG the early English patents is
an amusing one granted in 1852 for "a
fish call, or looking-glasse for fishes in
the sea, very useful for fishers to call all
kinde of fishes to their nets, speares or
hooks" Fishes then, like the rest of
us, have their weak points, it would
seem, among which not the least is van
ity. Fancy a respectable old sole or
elderly conger being taken by such a
transparent device!

But many other things they suffered.
