An important action. in which this
county is defendant, was heard today
before the supreme court. The case is
that of c. P. Cook VS.. Marshall county,
and is a test action in which the plain
tiff seeks the remission OF the cigaret
mulct tax of 5000 per year. levied three
or four years ago when MIR. Cook was
in the restaurant business. The decision
of the case means about $4,000 loss or
gain to the county, as that amount is
involved from six or seven dealers
whose cases are pending. The real
plaintiff in the action is the American
Tobacco Company, but each case is
brought In the name Of different deal

The cigaret mulct tax was first levied
a few years ago. by the enforcement of

court, Judge Burnham sustaining the
validity of the tax. Mr.. Cook appealed
to the supreme court and served notice
on the county a few days ago that the
case would be argued orally. County
Attorney Stone went to Des Moines
Wednesday evening to appear for the
county, and for Mr.. Cook, or rather the
American Tobacco Company, will APP
pear Mr. Julius Parker of New York,
general counsel for the big tobacco corr
poration. The case will be submitted
today, but will probably not be decided
until the January term.
The outcome of the case before the
supreme court will be of no little inter-
est. If the supreme court aff1rms. the
county will be in the neighborhood Of
$4,000 richer, and If the case is re-
versed that amount of money will not
be due the public Golfers. Each of the
dealers interested is interested about
$500 worth, as remission of two
years taxes are asked in each case.

Secretary Leslie M. Shaw, secretary
Of the United States treasury and one

placed himself among the foremost
statesmen Of the nation by his able and
fearless management of a great Office.
There are few men in America today

Congressman Robert G. Cousins, the
brilliant member from the Fifth dis

est orators in America today. He is in
demand all over the United States and
nowhere admired more than in his own
district. He has already spoken at sew

OVERLOOKED
There Are Patent Medicines and
Remedies Without Number
For Every Disease and Affliction but

For Every Disease and Aftiiction but
One.
A prominent physician was recently
asked why it was that there are SO
many "blood purifiers nerve tonios"
and remedies for every i'll, except one of
the most common and annoying, viz
piles. He replied. there are two rea-
sons. First, physicians and people in
general, have thought that the only
permonent cure for piles was surgical
opera ton. that medicinal preparations
were simply palliative. Another rea-
son is, that piles is in no sense of the
word an imaginary disease; the suffer-
er from piles is very much aware of the
fact. and for this reason. the few So
called pile salves, ointments. etc.. have
been short-lived. The patient very soon
discovered their inetiiciency.
He says further, fortunately, now
ever. there is new remedy for piles,
which. judging from it's rapidly growing
popularity, will soon take the place OF
all other treatment; 1t has certainly
made astonishing cures in this obsti-
nate disease and its merit has made 1t
famous among physicians and WHEREBY
er 1t has been introduced This remedy
Is sold by all druggists under the name
Of Pyramid Pile Cure.
From the immediate relief which the
Pyramid Pile Cure gives in all forms
of piles, many physicians supposed 1T
contained opium, cocaine or some sim
liar substance. but upon analysis 1t was
found to be perfectly free from anything
of the kind, and that the instant relief
and cure which follows it's use is rather
the result of it's remarkable healing,
soothing action on the parts affected.
. The Pyramid Pile Cure is the only
remedy. except surgical operation.
which Immediately relieves and perrna-
nently cures every form of piles.
It Is sold by druggists at so cents and

however, the illness is noticeable in
