The People Believe
What They Read About Hoods
Sarsaparilla
Their Faith in This Medicine is
Grounded on Merit
They Know It Absolutely Cures
Whom other Medicines Fail

OtfNf 'fSN'NNfN~ s%H
Hoods Sarsaparilla is not merely a sim
pie preparation OF sarsaparilla, Dock,
Stillingia and a little Iodide of Potassium.
Besides these excellent Alternatives II
also contains those great anti-bilious and
liver remedies, Mandrake and Dandelion.
II also contains those great kidney reme-
dies, IVA Ursi, Juniper Berries, and
Pipsissewa.
Nor are these all. Other very valuable
curative agents are harmoniously COM
bined IN Hoods sarssparilla, and il is
carefully prepared under the personal
supervision OF a regularly educated phar-
macist.
Knowing these facts, is the abiding faith
the people have in Hoods sarsaparilla a
matter OF surprise3 You can SEQ why
Hoods sarsaparilla cures, when other
medicines totally, absolutely fail.
"My little girl was afflicted with
eczema and suffered for seven years. She
was attended by physicians and tried
many different kinds OF medicine with
out relief. After taking a few bottles OF
Hoods Sarsaparilla she was cured" MRS

The New York attack upon the trusts
Is to begin with the alleged coal combi-
nation. A number of officers of the coal
carrying railroads have been summoned
before a referee to give testimony touch
ing the traffic in coal. For some mex
plfcable reason. the proceedings are being
conducted as secretly as possible.
The impression On the public mind
seems to be that there is a good deal of
humbug in the movement thus begun.
There are two branches to the coal trade,
neither of which is in any way under
control of the New York State authorities
or New York law. One is the mining, the
other is the carrying.
The mining is all done in Pennsylvania.
The carrying is interstate commerce. The
mining is under the jurisdiction of the
Keystone State; the transportation is
under the jurisdiction of the United
States.
What does New York expect to ac-
compfish by its inquiry" or whatever
the proceeding may be called. The coal
road officers will have to go to Albany, of
course. because they are subpoenaed; but
when they get there they can tell just
as much or as little as they choose. If
they refuse to answer questions tha they
do not think pertain to New York State
matters, we believe the Federal courts
viii uphold them.
=. on the other hand. the New York
law proves sufficient to give serious an
noyance to these gentlemen, they will
very soon move out of its reach and take
their business and their millions with
them.

Paine's celery compound builds up the
run DOWN health in a sure, uninterrupt-
ed, steadfast fashion from which there
can be no relapse. It wipes out I'M
healthy humors from the blood, opens up
the kin and makes it do its full share
in purifying the blood. This cleansing
the blood through and through is one of
the unfailing accomplishments of Paine's
celery compound.
From a lifelong ontac with the many
forms of nervous debility and impure
blood, Prof. Edward E. Phelps, MD,
LID, of the Dartmouth medical school,
was led to the discovery of Paine's eel
cry compound as the browning achieve
nient of an extraordinarily active and
successful professional life.
No acceptable substitute for Paine's cell
cry compound exists. Each year fur
Their accumulates evidence of the UNI
equaled capacity of this greatest of all
known remedies for restoring health and
vigor.
Now that spring has come, nerves,
blood and vital organs cannot remain
clogged by poisonous humors nor starved
by overwork and lack of sleep without
great risk. Paine's celery compound
is the most intelligent, wisest means any,
one can employ for driving out disease
and restoring a healthy tone to the en-
tire system.

Personal Tax Levy.

The enforcement of the law for the col
lection of personal taxes is a very un-
pleasant duty In it's present stage OF
novelty; but the unpleasantness is one
which exhausts itself in the course of a
year or two. The public become accus-
and they do pay, and there is no trouble
about 1t. Already. many people are realiz-
Ing that the city is in earnest and hat
Its demands are Just, and they are vol
UNFAIRLY stepping up to the Collectors
office and settling their bills. A few
years ago, Newark had the same trouble
that we have now. The City Collector
there had to go to the length of making
many arrests. Now such a thing is I'M
heard of, because people know there is
no use In fooling, and so pay their bills.
BILE in this city.
But the enforcement of the collections
by the city is only half a remedy for
the existing conditions. The assessment
of personal property is in a rotten condi-
ton Two-thirds of all the property
held by rich men in the city escapes al
together. and two-thirds of all the citi-
zens who own moderate amounts Of per-
sonality, and who should contribute ac-
cordingly, are not assessed at all. The
lists which were published on the author
ity of the Comptroller some time ago, to
all intents and purposes, contained all
the names of persons assessed in the
city, for. previous to its appearance,
practically nobody had thought of paying
personal tax except on National Bank
stock How many names did these lists
contain? Why. about four thousand,
probably not one in twenty-five of all
who should have appeared upon it.
We understand the Tax Commissioners
are now starting put on the new assess
ment- They should make 1t just as rigid
on persona al on real estate. They
should be able to show up a total of
sixteen or eighteen millions of personality,
distributed among. say twenty thousand
persons. The result would be a decrease
IN the tax rate at least equal to that
which will result from the recovery of the
railway, money.
