Accountable
Catarrh.

1t Is not reasonable to expect TO DC
cured of any disease, no matter now
constant and persevering the treat
ment, when that treatment Is alto
gether misdirected, and can not possi-
bly, reach the trouble.
This explains why those atiiicted
with catarrh meet with so much as
enlargement. Though they faithfully
take the usual treatment consisting OF
sprays, washes, ETC., and pass through
the summer without much discomfort,
as soon as cold weather returns, they
find themselves more firmly in the grip
of the disease than ever. Such results
could hardly be expected If the proper
treatment had been given.
Any one who has had experience
with catarrh will readily admit that 1t
is one of the most obstinate OF diseases;
it is easy to sec, therefore, that it IS
deep-seatcd, and that 10 remedy which
merely reaches the surface can have
the slightest effect upon it. The only
known cure for catarrh is real blood
remedy, one which gets at the seat OF
the diseasc-the cause of the trouble
and forces it from the system. SUCH a
remedy ia S. S. S. (Swift's Speciiic).

Campaign of 1896. BY William j. Bryan,
Together with a Collection Of His
Speeches, and a Biographical Sketch
by His Wife. Illustrated w. b. Con-
key 81 Co., Chicago. Pages, $50.
This is pre-eminently a Bryan book.
It's contents were mostly written and
spoken by him. except the sketch of his
life. which was prepared at the instance
of the publishers. by his wife. She says
that her relation to him prohibited both
criticism and eulogy and confined her
70 a mere statement of facts. But those
facts involve a good deal OF laudation.
Mr.. Bryan's antecedents and opportuni-
ties were honorable and favorable and
his own progression has been highly
creditable.

New Plymouth. Lunenburg, Va
o the Editor Of the Dispatch:

To the Editor Of the Dispatch:
At a sale held for delinquent land by
the Treasurer Of the county, 1 bought
three parcels OF land. Such land cannot
be found In what way can l get my
money refunded?
Has the County Judge the power TO
order the Treasurer TO refund 1t. If not
so, IL looks as If the State obtained my
money under false pretences. By answer
ing the above you will oblige,
Yours, &c. U. ..
In answer to "a. c." we would say that
section "A Of the Code, as amended by the
act Of March s. 1894. provides that any
person feeling himself aggrieved by the
assessment Of his lands or lots may apply
TO the County Court of the county, or Cor
poration Court OF the city, in which the
land lies at any time prior to the first day
of February Of the next succeeding year
after such assessment. and not after, to
have the assessment Of his lands or lots
corrected
The last assessment Of real estate was
made in the year 1895, and those aggrieved
by the assessment by the assessors had
the right to apply at any time before
February /, 1896, to the court OF the coun-
ty or city in which the real estate was
situated for correction Of the assessment,
but no right to make such application
after that date. If such application was
not made before February l, 1896, the value
placed upon the real estate by the assessor
must stand as the basis for taxation until
the next assessment is made in the year
1900.
In reply to G. s.: The statutes provide
no remedy for one aggrieved in the man
ner recited. The Legislature alone can
give YOU relief.

Mr.. H. p. Cook, of 30 Walker street,
Atlanta, Ga, suffered intensely IRON
catarrh. He says:
81 at first thought had only a bad
cold, and didn't give much atten-
ton TO the distractions in my nose
and throat. This soon became notice
able, and began to so inconvenience
me, that applied for treatment and
was given the usual local applications
of sprays. washes, etc. The immediate
effect of the treatment was to relieve
me, but only for a short time after ap-
plication, and / could easily see that
the disease was growing worse stead
lily, and seemed to grow deeper toward
my lungs; my nose and throat were
constantly choked up, so that l was
all the time hawking and splitting, and
to add to it all, the disease became
very offensive. was unable to obtain
much sleep, being compelled to get up
constantly during the night to clear
my throat and keep from choking. y
az tried various treatments without
relief, as none of the medicines seemed
to reach the disease. Finally, some
one recommended S. S. S., and before
/ had finished one bottle, I felt better.
I continued the medicine, and it cured
me permanently. truly believe SIS.
is the only cure for catarrh, the most
abominable of all diseases"
S. S. S. is unlike all other blood
remedies, because it is more than a
mere tonic, and goes directly to the
seat of all blood diseases, and cures the
most aggravated cases Of Cancer, Ca
tarrh, Rheumatism, Eczema, Scrofula,
Contagious Blood Poison, etc. S. S. S.
is the only blood remedy guaranteed

Land Assessments.

To the Editor of the Dispatch:
A property, consisting Of one quarter OF
an acre of ground. with dwelling ana
wood-house on lot, was assessed at 5000
In 1885 the owner tore away part Of the
old dwelling, remodelled. and added TO 1t
at an actual cost value of two thirds OF
the first value to property. In 1856 the
reassessment was made, but the assessor
never called on the owner. or in any way
ascertained from the owner the cost OF
the improvements. The owner knew no.
thing Of the Ieassessment until upon
making payment of State and county
taxes. the valuation Of this property
was found to be raised to 81 500. The law
In regard to this reads that protest must
be made previous TO October succeeding
the reassessment. Does not a county
court possess the right to correct an
error? The owner is Informed tnat the
exorbitant tax or excessive valuation
must be paid for five years. Is 1t the
dpty of the assessor TO see the owner
or agent of the property? The owner is
the more troubled, because the surround
ing property has not been valued in pro-
portion. The increase is a grievous bur-
den. If the County Court has no power
to correct errors, where can one apply for
redress? Does the State Legislature make
provision for this? A. Z.
