You'll find fifth day. what then was done,
How God ere making man, did give
Great fishes, in deep seas to live.
Twas one of these, a living thing
No arms, no legs, no feet mo wing
A body huge, without SOUL
Yet living under Gods control;
And did his masters laws obey,
Who rules the sea and land away
A purpose wise God had in view
AS in all things His creatures do,
When this great fish did swallow whole,
Poor Jonah's body and his SOUL
Jonah repented, wept and prayed;
Learned that his God must be obeyed,
God heard his prayer and made the fish
Cast Jonah up as he did wish.
Thus was the whale again the same.
He had no soul, but kept his name;
He travelled on from pole to pole,
Without a hand, q foot, or soul.

Because at all Times They Have the Most
Important Work to Do.

Weak and unhealthy kidneys are
responsible for more sickness and
suffering than any other disease, and
If permitted to continue fatal results
are sure to fOLGOW.
The kidneys filter and purify the
blOOd-that is their work.
So when your kidneys are weak
or out Of order you can understand
how quickly your entire body is af-
fected, and how every organ seems
to fail to do it's duty.
Among the many cures of DR..
Kilmer's Swamp-R Root, the great
kidney, liver and bladder remedy,
investigated by The Progressive
Farmer, the ones which we publish
this week for the benefit of our
readers speak in the highest terms
of the wonderful curative properties
OF this great remedy.

RAILROAD TAX CASE SETTLED.

The Southern, Seaboard and Atlantic Will
Pay on the Assessment Made by Corpora
tion COmmissiOn-The Corporation Com
mission Agrees Hereafter to Assess Rail
road Property Only Once in Four Years.
The State Corporation Commission
has won it's fight.
The railroads will pay taxes for
the past two years on the assessment
of over $42, OOO, 900 made by the Cor
pOratiOn Commission in July 1899
and again in July 1900. They have
paid on the old assessment of $32, OOO,-
600 for the past two years, and now
owe the tax on the ten million in
crease. They agree to pay this, with
the penalty, which will give the
State Treasury about $50, 900, and
about twice as much to the counties
and towns through which the roads
run. The property assessment for
1901 and 1902 will remain at the
present figures.
The railroad property in 1898 was
assessed at $32, 522, 921. In 1899 the
Cooperation Commission, then COM
posed of Franklin Mcneil, chair
man, E. @. Beddingfield and S. L.
Rogers, assessed the property at
S42, $4,000 and made practically the
same assessment in 1900. The taxes
paid in 1899 and 1900 was on the valua-
ton of 1898, by order of Judge
SimOntOn, and aggregated about
1926, 600 for each year. According
to the valuation of the Commission
the tax would have been about 1928
600 for each year for all taxes-Stute,
county, schools, towns etc, or about
$500, 600 more than was paid for the
two years, which amount will be
paid at once.
