TALLAHASSEE TOPICS.
Ruling in Reference to the ASSESS
ment on Real Estate.

ment on Real Estate.
Tallahassee, Fla. March 1S.--Controller
Reynolds, quoting the law, has asserted
that when an assessment roll has been COM
pleted, approved by the Board of County
Commissioners, and by them certified to be
correct, in the manner provided by law
said board then has no authority to under
take to equalize the assessment on real es-
tate, or to make any other changes in the
assessment roll. When the foreaoing steps
have been taken the commissioners have
no legal right to reduce valuations for the
purpose of allowing a rebate in taxes, or
for any other purpose.
The only provision of law under which
County Commissioners can even consent to
allowance of any credit to the tax collec-
tor is contained in section as, chapter 1922
Laws of Florida, as follows:
when any collector discovers that any
land has been assessed more than once the
same year, he shall collect only the tax
justly due thereon, and shall make re-
truns of the balance as a double assess
ment, and shall be credited therefor by
the county commissioners and controller
and he shall notify the different parties to
whom the property is assessed. He shall
also report to the county commissioners
the errors, double assessments, and
hldSSuldclSS lot winch ne is TO be credit
ed, under different heads, giving in every
case the names of the parties on whose ac-
count the credit is to be allowed"
The law provides that all applications to
redeem tax sale certificates shall be made
to The clerk of the Circuit Court for the
county in which the land is located, and
all applications to purchase said certifi-

WHAT IS THE GRIP?
1t Is Certainly "A Most Mysterious
Disease, But It's Real Cause Is
Clearly Explained.

Investigation has shown that nearly
every family in the city has had at least
one of it's members attacked by the grip,
but it seems TO be coming in a different
form this year than ever heretofore.
Men and women complain more of nausea,
pain in the arms, limbs and about the
back and a general lack of appetite and
ambition.
Now, all this proves clearly just where
the cause of the grip is located. Have
you ever seen sewer or drain clogged
up after a heavy rain? 1t is precisely
this way with the grip. The kidneys get.
clogged up and the poisonous acids
which should pass from the system are
thrown back until finally they get into
the blood and so poison the whole body.
Read what the eminent DIR. Hamilton
has to say upon the subject 1T is clear"
says he, that in order to drive grip
and similar poisons from the system it
is only necessary to open up the sewers;
in other words, TO put the kidneys in
perfect working order so that they viii
carry these poisons 0away instead of
allowing them to clog up and ruin the
blood, and, unfortunately, this is not
dAtoSetHer an easy tnlng TO do.
There is, so far as the medical profess
sion and science know, but one discovery
that will quickly and effectually open up
the kidneys and at the same time soothe
them. That discovery, which has cured
so many thousands of men and women;
which is keeping 50 many in perfect
health to-day, and which is used so uni
versally the world over is Warmers Safe
Cure 1t is recommended and used by the
highest medical authorities both abroad
and in America. 1t can be taken by the
most aged person and the tiniest child
with beneficial effect for it is perfectly
pure and harmless. Prof. Boyer of Ger
many, DR.. William Edward Robson of
England and Dr. Gum of New York are
all prominent men who speak in the
highest terms of this great remedy. If
you have any symptoms of the grip, let
me advise you to act promptly, for you
will find that Safe Cure will relieve you
quickly take you from a condition of
misery and put you on the road to
health"

This is as great convenience as
preserves, the preparation of apples
for sauce not being always convenient
for the busy housekeeper. Inferior
apples may be used in this wny, and
the windfalls of early autumn, when
one is fortunate enough to own an
orchard, will be found quite available.
They shoald be peeled, cored and
freed from every blemish, then cut mp
in quite small pieces. A large earth
en- jar with a cover should be ready to
receive them. Into this put first
liberal spanking of sugar, with Gin
namon to taste, then layer of apples,
then more sugar and cinnamon, and
so on till the jar is full. The sugar
should be regulated according to the
tartness of the apples, from a quarter
to half pound for one pound of APP
pies being the rule. The jar should
be placed at the back of the range and
the fruit kept covered and gently sim
mering through the day. 1t should
then be set away TO cool and the APP
pies taken out only as they are need
ed for sauce or desserts. Having no
water mixed with them, apples pre-
pared in this way are very palatRble.

too thick, thin it down with a little
cold stock. Prepare some lettuce and
