The Ordinance to Check Tax Coliec-
tions Explained.
Alderman Devine's recent ordi-
nance to provide a check on the
collection of taxes, will very likely
pass in the next council in an
amended form, modelled about as
follows:
The city assessor will make up
the assessment roll as formerly,
except that the assessment of each
individual, corporation or firm
will be numbered consecutive
ly. The assessor will also fill
out a tax receipt and stub
for each assessment and these re-
ceipts and stubs will be numbered
to correspond with the numbers on
the assessment roll. These receipts
will be bound in book form and
will be delivered by the assessor to
the mayor. The mayor will in
turn deliver them to the coll
lector, taking receipt for them.
This receipt by the collector to the
mayor will state the number and
amount of tax receipts delivered
to the collector. When the collec-
tor receives taxes, he will have
only to countersign the receipt.
At the end of the year or at
stated periods the city auditor will
examine unused receipts in the
hands of the collector and by ad.
ding the amount of such receipts
to the sum deposited by the coll
lector with the treasurer, it will
be ascertained II the collector has
been faithful to his trust.

SHAKERS AND DOCTORS TALK
TOGETHER.

In his able work entitled LONGEVITY"
published few years ago, Or. John
Gardner, of England, predicts that veg
etable agent will yet be found that shall
so retard those changes that bring about
old age as TO prolong human life much
beyond its present limit.
Acting, perhaps, upon the impulse pro-
duced by this thought, many eminent
physicians have called from time TO time
upon the Shakers of Mt. Lebanon 10 In.
quire of them concerning the secrets OF
medicinal plants. in which these sincere,
simple minded and God fearing people are
known to be wise and skilltul beyond all
other men.
The Shakers willingly told what they
had learned, and in return received from
their visitors much valuable information
about disease; which they at once made
practical use Of. The most important
point was that II genuine and certain
remedy could be found for indigestion and
dyspepsia, and the ailments growing out
of It, long step would be taken in the
right direction. Old age, said these ply
siclans, begins In failure OF digestion;
and so do most diseases at any ana all
periods of life. The result of these con-
situations was the discovery by the Shak-
ers OF the desired specific, made wholly
from herbs, and now known as the Shaker
Digestive Cordial. Its action Is magical
and worthy OF its origin.
Where there Is distress after eating,
heartburn, sick headache, bad taste in
the mouth, biiousness, weakness and
WEAKNESS, cold hands and feet, aversion
to food, nervousness, or any other symp-
tom of dyspepsia, the Cordial will prove
its curative virtues. Behind 1t Is the
reputation of people who have never
defrauded or deceived their fellow men.
In order to test whether this remedy Is
adapted to your case, at practically no
cost, you may procure a trial bottle for
ten cents of almost any druggist.

MINOOKA'S NEXT WISH.
If 1t Cannot Be Portion of the City Of
Scranton the Citizens viii Ask the Court
IN Erect 1t Into q Borough.

to Erect 1t Into q Borough.
Scranton did not want Minooka and
now the ambitious denizens of that
hamlet are agitating the subject of
forming into a borough. First, how
ever, it is their intention to make re-
newed effort for annexation, and If a
second defeat crosses their path, then
an engineer will be engaged to draught
an outline Of a borough and a petition
will be circulated which, if it is gener-
ally signed, will be presented to the
court.
The citizens of Minooka had hoped
that the city councils would favorably
consider their petition, and since their
application for annexation was rejected
they have determined to pull away
from the present condition of things.
Under the laws regulating townships
in this state 1t Is impossible for a pro-
grcssive community to plunge forward
although there is enough of taxes
levied to support a set of officers that
would be invested with the powers to
order and enforce public improve
ments. Martin McDonough, one Of the
leading citizen of Minooka, stated to a
Tribune reporter that local politics is
now busying the people and they have
for the time being forgotten this mat
ter in the hustle and turmoil of the
other, but as soon as the February cleo
ton passes, the agitation will be taken
up where 1t has been left off for the
present.
