New rIercantiIe Law.

The new mercantile tax law, signed
by Governor Stone, has not been re-
ceived very favorably by the mer-
chants of Shenandoah, as it imposes
upon them additional taxation, and
additional responsibilities. The new
law imposes an annual tax of two
dollars on retail dealers and one mill
additional on each dollar of the whole
volume of business transacted annu-
ally. Wholesale dealers shall pay an
annual tax of three dollars and one
half mill additional on each dollar of
the whole volume of business trans
acted annually. Dealers at exchanges
and boards OF trade are required to
pay tax of twenty-five cents on each
81 900 worth of goods so sold.
Mercantile Appraisers shall be ap-
pointed by the County Commission
ers annually on or before December
80. The blanks to be distributed by
the Mercantile Appraisers are to be
prepared by the Auditor General, and
shall contain an affidayit to which
the dealer shall subscribe. The
whole volume of business, including
cash receipts and merchandise sold
on credit, shall be the basis on which
the license is to be rated.
If the owner, proprietor or any
other person connected with a bust
ness refuses to produce the books
and papers and appear before the
County Treasurer to give information
on which to base his tax, he is made
liable to a penalty Of $1,000. All deal
ers coming under the act are required
to place permanently at the entrance
to their place of business a sign de-
seribing the business in which they
are engaged, under a penalty Of $40
for each and every offence. 1t is esti-
mated that the new law will raise an
annual revenue of over 81, 100000
The Governor also signed a bill re-
quiring transient retail merchants in
cities and boroughs to pay license
OF not less than $25 nor more than
&2OO month, the amount to be fixed
by Council. The license in townships
for such dealers is fixed at $25 a
month, and is made payable to the
County Treasurer for the use Of the
school fund of the township. All
licenses are to be renewed monthly,
and failure to obtain such license
is made payable by fine Of not less
than 800 nor more than $500,

DeniaI by Mrs. ChIlds.

Philadelphia, May 4.-The Ledger to-
day makes an authoritative denial of
the widely published statement that a
marriage was contemplated between
Mrs. George W. Childs and General
Joseph Wheeler. The denial of the
truth of the report was made by Mrs.
Childs TO Major ]. M. Carson, the
Washington correspondent of The
Ledger. Mrs. Childs, after expressing
surprise at the original story and in
dignation with the persistence with
which 1t has been adhered to, re-
quested that the fullest and broadest
denial be given 1t. There was not at
any time the slightest foundation for
the story or justification for its pub
lication.

BEFORE BABY IS BORN"
A Valuable Little Book of Interest
to All Women Sent Free.

Every woman looks forward with feel
ings of Joy indescribable to the
one great event in her life, COM
pared with which all others pale into in
significance. How proud she will feel
when her babe nestles on her breast
how sweet the name of 'MotherW And
yet, her anticipation of this event is
clouded with dread of the pain and dan
ger of the ordeal, so that it is impossi-
BILE to avoid the feeling of foreboding
which creeps over her. The danger
and suffering attendant upon being a
mother can be entirely prevented, 80
that the coming of the little stranger
need not be looked forward to with fear.
Every woman who reads this, can obtain
free a valuable little book entitled "Be-
fore Baby is Born" by sending her ad-
dress to the Bradfield Regulator Co.,
Atlanta, Ga. This book contains price,
less information for all women, and no

ONE of the most convincing evil
dences of the return of prosperity is
the advancing of wages in many of
the large industrial establishments of
the country-almost every day
records the gratifying intelligence
that thousands of employees in differ
ent sections of the country have had
their pay increased. This is far more
pleasant news than the gruesome
tales of reductions in wages. The
free silver press was filed with
articles bearing upon stagnation in
business a year ago, but why do they
fail to publish the increase being
daily granted to wage-earners

Why ask a physician to find out
whether your Kidneys are diseased.
Take glass tumbler and fill it with
urine. If there is a sediment after

your urine stains linen, you should at
once take DR.. David Kennedy's Favor
ite Remedy, as delay is dangerous.
There is no question about its being
the best and surest medicine in the
