exceeding So; 10 other road pCll tax shall
be collected within the limits OF such city.
You are right in your contention that t. Is
street poll tax takes the place Of the road
tax, and that the persons mentioned in See

The legion Of friends of Mrs. Sarah B.
Cooper will be panied to learn that she has

fined her to her home during the past week
and prevented her from attending her Bible
class yesterday. Her attending physician,
however, said that the disease had taken a
turn tor the better and that she is now i'm
proving. The withdrawal from society of
this estimable lady for even so short time
as one week creates void that is felt from
one end of the city to the other, and the
great pulse of her many friends beaIs in
sympathy with her under any affection
which she may be called upon to suffer.
