HER GREAT FORTUNE,
A Woman Saved From Lifelong
Misery and Made Happy
and !lsefIh.

A woman confined 10 the house for
several years with chronic female
arrangement had finally given up hope
Of being cured.
She bad tried physician after ply
sicIan, and remedy after remedy, with
tout any permanent improvement.
Her treatment had cost her husband
who was poor man, hundreds of dol
lars. They had been obliged to deny
themselves many comforts Of life In
order to get money enough to pay the
physicians,
YET, In spite OF all economy there was
small mortgage on their property be-
cause Of the expense her illness had
brought upon them.
The woman had become weak, nervous
and wretched, and scarcely able to keep
out Of her bed. Her children were
growing up neglected and ragged, be-
cause Of the want of mothers care.
Her husband was becoming discouraged
and broken down with overwork.
Picking up the paper one day she hap
pened TO read an item which contained
the news that DR.. Hartman would treat
such cases free Of charge by letter, She
Immediately wrote the doctor describing
her case, and giving him oil her symp-
toms.
She soon received letter telling her
exactly what to do, and what medi-
cines and appliances to get. She began
the treatment 1.-THE principle remedy be-
ing Peruna) at once, and in few weeks
she was well and strong again, able to
do her own work.
This offer OF free home treatment TO
women Is still open to all who may need
the services Of this eminent physician.
Ali letters applying for treatment will
be promptly answered, and DO held
strictly confidential.

Residents of Holiday Call on County
Commissioners Today.

A number OF the residents OF Holli.
day called on the county commission
era today In relation 10 the franchise OF
the Salt Lake n Suburban Railway
company. which they are quite anxious
to have granted They had noticed in
the papers that there was some hitch
In connection with the bond TO be exc
cuted by the company as a guarantee
that the company would build its road,
II appeared in one OF the morning
papers that the company was required
to give q bond Of $4,000 to guarantee
that Its entire system would be COM
pleted In one year That was explained
to the delegation by Chairman Ander-
son, OF the beard of county commits
sioners, who showed them the franchise
and pointed out that the statement was
a mistake; that the franchise provided
that only one-ffth Of the entire system
was to be completed within year and
the bond of $4,000 was TO cover only
that portion of the construction.
The members OF the party all ex-
pressed themselves as satisfied with the
reasonableness OF the demands of the
commissioners and stated that they
Mad misunderstood the conditions OF
the bond, They expressed the opinion
that II the company meant business II
certainly should not object 10 giving the
bond as required In the franchise.
The franchise will be passed upon by
the board al its meeting on Monday.

IMPROVING FARM METHODS.

In an address before the New Jersey
board Of agriculture Secretary Wilson
spoke OF the need Of greater education
for the farmer, on the soils and the
subjects which he comes In contact
with. The doctor, the lawyer, is ed
ucated along his lines to perfection,
hut the farmer Is not He must be
better educated along his own lines to
be successful. Our boys ought TO be
taught in our own colleges not only
how 10 read their soils, but how to pro-
duce and feed domestic animals, par
ticularly the horse. England wants
good hunting horses. There is always
demand for good driving and coach
horses. and our boys should be taught
in our colleges how to produce them.
The speaker said that not over 10 per
cent Of our cattle have tuberculosis,
while 40 per cent OF foreign cattle have
It. The department Is trying TO be
very careful about this disease when
cattle come to this country. The de.
partment is doing great work In for
estry. The first Appropriation was
abut $4,000, now 1t is over $4,000 for
forestry alone. teaching how to cut and
how 10 preserve the forests.
Secretary Wilson alsp referred 10 the
condition OF the agriculture OF our
country lnstanoing the meat industry.
He said the number Of cattle in pro-
portion 10 the people Is getting less
every year, making meat higher. Be
sides, Europe Is taking more OF our
beef cattle every year. He spoke OF our
products going to China--our wheat
and -four. Here then Is 10 be a market
for our flour as well as other of our
important products. In 1898 wa sold
CT agricultural products 5000 .000. 600
worth, and In 1889, $500, O00, 900, In round
numbers. We are selling too much raw
material. We should add skill 10 our

Judge Hall Hands Down Decision
In Case Of Dixon.
ORDERS WRIT OF MANDAMUS
Defendant viii be Compelled 10 Pay
The State s793, the Amount
Due.

Judge Hall today handed down de"
csion In the cage OF John De Gray
Dixon state treasurer against Arnott
c, Ricketts,, executor OF the estate Of
James NJ Ricketts,, deceased who died
in this city on May n, 1901 directing
that peremptory writ Of mandamus be
issued against defendant to compel him
TO pay to the state treasurer SsS,sS,
the amount due the state as an inher-
itance tax
The estate left by Mr. Ricketts, in
this country consisted of personal prop
j erty valued at S29,005. 2G. which. after
paying all the debts OF the estate left
pthe sum Of S25,ST7 6S to be distributed
among three heirs, each OF whom would
receive SS625.s9.
A demond was made on defendant for
the amount due to the state as an In
heritance tax. but he refused 10 pay
the same for the reason that the es-
tate Was not subject to taxation under
the inheritance laws Of the state and
for the further reason that said inher-
itance law Is Invalid and unenfOrcahle
Defendant filed a demurrer to the pc
tiion for writ Of mandamus. on the

Judge Hail today oyerruled the de-
murrer, thereby holding that the inher-
itance tax act Of 1901 Is constitutional.
The defendant preferred 10 stand on the
demurrer instead of answering the pc
tlton, so the court ordered that the
writ Of mandamus be issued to compel
defendant 10 pay the sum OF 1893 IS the
amount sought to be collected by the
