Peculiar to Itself.

Hoods Sarsaparilla is peculiar
to itself, in strictly medicinal
sense, in three important particu-
lars, viz: first, in the combination
of remedial agents used; second, in
the proportion in which they are
mixed; third, in the process by
which the active curative properties
of the preparation are secured.
Theae three important points make
Hoods Sarsaparilla peculiar IN its
merit, as it accomplishes cures hith-
erto unknown.

The state levy was increased by
state action. The levy for county
current expense is increased on
account of the saloon license being
diverted from the general fund,
where it formerly went, to the
schools and incorporated towns,
where it now goes under the pro-
visions of the late law. The sink
ing fund rate is also increased be-
cause there is $4,000 bond COM
ing due this year. This makes the
total rate run up to $500 for coun-
ty and state, as against $3.50 last
year.
In addition to this the taxpayers
in most all the school districts will
have special tax to pay of from
zoe to 800 on the hundred.
In this district, No. IL, it is
to 70 cents on the hundred, so that
the tax payers of this locality will
pay total tax of $3.50 on the 800
of valuation. The rate they paid
last year was $3.50, including coun-
ty, state and special school tax, ex-
cept in Eaton where the rate was
$3.50, owing to special village tax
being raised.
A tax of $3.50 is pretty high but
it can not well be avoided. The
taxpayers can congratulate them.

BY slender majority of only 334
votes the proposition TO bond Koo

warrant Indebtedness carried. HaC
it been defeated, the commissioner
would have been compelled to hav'
levied special tax to meet these
obligations, so that instead of pay
ing $4.30 on the 800 here at Bon
ner's Ferry, we would probabl.
have had to pay $40.
When the people come to dig u
to pay these taxes they will under

THE OPEN SWITCH.
An EsTABLIsHED SAFEGUARD


Anybody who travels by cars knows what
is meant by 81 an open switch" 1t is the
terror of railroad men, and the dread of the
traveller. Its victims-killed, horribly man
gled or manned for life-are numbered by
the score each year.
Yet even the dreaded "open switch is not
so widely fatal as is certain disease, which,
without ceasing its activity for an instant, is
daily filling hundreds of graves.
What is that terrible ailment? you ask.
1t is Heart Disease But" you reply, con-
fidently, al haven't any heart disease-my
heart is all right" Are you sURE2
DIR. Franklin Miles, of Elkhart, Ind, the
distinguished specialist in diseases of the
heart and nervous system, states that disor-
ders of the heart are as common as those OF
the lungs, liver, stomach, bowels or kidneys,
though often unsupported. The reason peo-
pie are not aware of this important fact is
because symptoms of heart disease are not
usually recognized as proceeding from this
organ, but are attributed to some other
source If you have shortness of breath,
fluttering or palpitation, pain or tenderness
in left breast, shoulder or side, oppressed or
choking sensation, fainting or smothering
spells, your heart is affected.
81 had been troubled with heart disease
for years. My left pulse was very weak, could
at times scarcely feel it, excitement would
weaken my nerves and heart, and fear of
impending death stared me in the face for
hours. Or. Miles HerYine and New Heart
Cure are the only medicines that have proved
ofany benefit and cured mel. M. DYER,
Cloverdale, Md.
"My wife has been taking Dr. Miles Nesp
Cure for the Heart. She thinks ii wonderful.
She has not been troubled with pain or
smothering spells since using it. We have
also used DR.. Miles Pills, and we find them
all they are claimed to be."-GEO. L. FINK,
Philadelphia, Pa
These and hundreds of similar testimo-
malls are convincing proofs of the wonderful
powers of DR.. Miles Ncso Cure for Tie Heart.
1t is effective, agreeable, and above all, SAFE.
