soning of the system ensues
Water, while continually passing
from the body, always carries with ii
more or less waste, worn-out, poison
Gus matters, which constantly gener-
ate in the system, as well as inju-
rious particles introduced from
without. Every expelled breath is
laden with watery vapor containing
impurities. Insensible perspiration
thrown off with countless impure
particles passes out through the skin,
The same is true of the kidneys and
other channels of elimimnation~the
vehicle for cleansing any part of the
body being always water. The pro
cess is similar to that of cleansing
a soiled sponge, the thoroughness
being proportionate with the guam
tity and purity of the water, the
rapidity also depending on the same
factors.
As a nutritive factor water plays
an equally important role in the sys-
tenn. The fact that it constitutes
nearly t~hree-fourths of the human
body is alone proof positive of this
statement. Blood contains so per
cent of water, muscles Is per cent,
brain nearly 80 per cent, gastric
juice 9712 per cent, saliva 99R per
cent, bones 13 per cent, and even
the teeth 10 per cent. insufficient
water supply therefore means a lack
everywhere in the constitution which
water alone can furnish.
Pure water also makes most pow
erfully for long life in it's character
of a solvent, distilled water being
unquestionably the greatest solvent
known.
"a nan is as old as his arteries"
is the dictum of a renowned French
psychologist. Now what is it that
makes the arteries old? Blood YES
sells, young and healthy, are extern
sively elastic, permitting the blood
to circulate through them freely.
But in old age they become hard and
unyielding, with diminished capacity
and a smaller blood stream flowing
through with less swiftness. This
change is effected by the deposits in
the blood cells, with the walls of
blood vessels, of fbrinous and gela-
tinous substances, lime and other
earthly compounds contained in the
food taken into the body. This de-
post is apt to occur in the densest
structures of the system, in the
joints, in the tendons, in the mus
cles, in every organ and tissue of
the body; in short, wherever the
blood circulates, heart, lungs, diges-
tive tract, organs of secretion and
excretion, brain and nerves, every

law, as generally understood, did not
require notice, none was given. This
raised the assessment to $10,80O.
When the returns went to the state
board of equalization Glass 20 in
Sleepy Eye was raised 20 per cent more
by that body, bringing the total up to
$4,000, which. with the $3.50 furniture,
made the total assessment $13,440.
Auditor Vogel, accordingly, made out
the tax levy on this amount $542.97.
The Sleepy Eye banking firm refused to
pay this amount and made an offer to
County Treasurer Schneider of $219,
which offer was refused.
Suit was then entered by the county
for the full amount of the taxes and
the case came up before Judge Weber
in July of this year, and resulted in
the following decision: THAT the tax
of $542.97 was excessive, unequal and
unjust, and that the defendants were
entitled to have the tax levied against
them for 1892 over and above $125.40
set aside
Accordingly, the firm made an offer
of the $125.40 to the county treasurer,
but settlement was again refused on
the advice Of the county attorney, who
thought that the acceptance of the
money would be practically a settle
ment of the case.

Object to Secret Methods.
"This thing has been done so Sc
cretly that we hardly know yet any
thing about it, said one of the mem
bers ''Mr McCardy, no doubt, de-
serves a great deal OF credit for what
he has done, but why wasn't it done
openly. We do not kvaw anything
about who has been assisting him in
getting this thing up, or anything else,
and we do not think this is right
Mr.. McCardy was given permission
by Acker post some time ago to act
as special representative of the post in
soliciting funds for the monument,
which he suggested to the post ought
to be erected. Except private sub
scriptions made by some of the mem
bers, nothing further was done by the
post.
Mr.. McCardy appointed his own COM
mittee to aid him, and has not yet an
nounced of whom it consists. Most
of the subscriptions for the fund to
purchase the monument were solicited
by Mr.. McCardy, and he will present
it to the city at the unwilling next Fri
day. He made nearly all the plans for
the unwilling himself, and selected the
orator of the day, Capt. Henry G..
Castle. He also had entire charge of
sending out the invitations to the vari-
Gus organizations to participate.
Acker post was not informed of any
of the plans, except those which have
appeared in the newspapers, until last
night at it's meeting. All plans for
the unwilling were guarded with ut
most secrecy, the Grand Army men
declare.
The refusal of Garfield post to par
ticipate created big surprise among
the members of Acker post.

AN UNPLEASANT EXPERIENCE.

Has it ever been your unhappy lot to be
told by your physician that you must go
to a hospital and submit to an operation?
IF So you remember with what dread and
shrinking you awaited the day when you
must endure the knife.
The present day surgeon appears to be
possessed by mania for operating. espec-
tally in cases of hemorrhoids or piles, and
while the greater number of the profess
sion do not recommend this last resort
unless they honestly believe it necessary.
the fact remains that much needless Oper-
ating is done, and the patient put to much
expense and suffering for what?
To obtain possible temporary relief;
these words are used advisedly. because in
nine cases out of ten the afliction re-
turns and the patient is just where he
started from. Oftentimes he could be
cured much more simply and easily by
the use of such a remedy as the Pyramid
Pile Cure; this has come to be recognized
as the best remedy on the market for the
painful disease named, and the druggists
now sell more of 1t than all other pile
remedies combined.
The writer personally knows people who
were afflicted with the worst form of
bleeding and protruding piles and who
were permanently cured by the use of
Pyramid Pile Cure. In every one Of these
cases the attending physician had assured
the sufferer that only by an operation
could he rid himself OF the disease; 50
much for the infallibility of the doctors.
This remedy, which is sold by all drug
gists at the low price of fifty cents, is 10
suppository form, is applied directly To the
parts affected. and performs its work
quietly and painlessly. The Pyramid
Drug Co. Marshall Mich. will mail free
to any address a book telling all about
piles or hemorrhoids. their cause and cure.
A suggestion is offered that If the read

NEW ULM, Mimi, Nov. 14.-When
a town, county or state board of equali-
cation raisee the value of any class OF
personal property, does it have to no.
tify each individual owning property in
that class? This is the question the
supreme court of the state will be
asked to pass upon in the tax case
of Griffith & Smith, which the county
commissioners have decided to carry
up to the highest judicial tribunal.
In the decision of Judge Weber,
month or so ago, adversely to the
county in it's suit for taxes against
the banking firm of Griffith & Smith,
of Sleepy Eye, this point is raised, and
the Judge is strongly inclined to the
view that, as far as notification is
concerned. there is no difference in the
raising of the property individually and
in classes. There is no law upon this
point, however, and in order to get it
definitely settled the case is being car
ried up. Should the supreme court
hold the same view as does Judge Web
Der it would mean revolution in the
matter of the work of boards of equali-
over the state for all town, county
and state boards have hitherto worked
on the theory that it is not necessary
to notify individuals when raising
classes.
Griffith & Smith were firm of pri
vate bankers in Sleepy Eye, up to less
than a year ago, when their institution
was changed to a national bank. When
the assessor came around in 1902, the
firm gave him as the true value of the
taxable personal property of the firm
the sum of S2.624, the same being
credits of banks, bankers, brokers or

Feeling Charged to the

A merry war is on over the unveil-
ing of st. Paul's first monument to
the memory of the soldiers and sailors
of the Civil war, which is to be dedi-
Gated and presented to the city next
Friday afternoon, in the triangular
space opposite Summit park, at the
head of Third street.
Garfield Post No. 8, Grand Army of
the Republic, will not participate in the
exercises
Neither will the st. Paul companies
of the national guard
Some of the other patriotic organi-
cations which have been invited to
members last night, may also refuse
the invitation.
Dissatisfaction over the manner in
which the erection of the monument
and the plans for it's unwilling have
been handled by Capt. J. ]. McCardy,
formerly city comptroller, who has the
entire matter in charge and who has
done almost all the work toward Sc
curing the monument, is said to lie at
the bottom of the refusal of the invi-
tation by Garfield post.
Personal feelings, which were shown
at the last municipal election, when
the members Of the national guard
worked for Mr.. McCardy's defeat as
comptroller because he opposed the=fs-
suing of bonds to build a new armory,
are ascribed as the direct cause of the
national guard not turning out.
Garfield Post Declines Invitation.
Garfield post turned down the invita-
ton at largely attended meeting at
Its hall, 1861 West Sixth street, last
evening. The action was taken at the
secret meeting of the post The mem
bers refused to make any direct state
ment as to the cause of their action
after the meeting, but hints as to the
cause flew about on every side.

cause of the action of the post. I do
not know why they took such action"
SAID Harrison -Loggey, commander of
Garfield post. Il did not expect them
to DO it. l had my plans all made for
them to turn out. but they turned
me down. The discussion over the
matter was pretty hot, but, of course.
1t was all secret, so 1 can say nothing
about it,
Some of the members felt, it is stat
ed, that the plans for the monument
had been so carried out as not prop
erly to represent the old soldiers of
the city, and they were therefore ad-
verse to taking part. They also felt

$4O0, the value of their office furni-

stock jobbers, and the added sum of
$500, the value of their office furni-
ture.
In returning the assessments to the
county board, the assessor entered the
assessable property of the firm at
$4,000, including the furniture, but
whether this raise was made by the
assessor or the town board of review
does not appear. 1t undoubtedly was
made by the assessor. When the coun
ty board met in July, 1902, it raised this
sum so per cent and notified the firm
by telegram to that effect. Griffith &
Smith, however, ignored the telegram
There was some question as to it's le-
gality, as the law requires that the no
tice be in writing, so the following day
the action was reversed and Class 20,
credits of private banks, bankers, brok-
ers or stock jobbers, was raised 80 per
cent in Sleepy Eye. This provision
reached Griffith & Smith as well as the
others, as they were the only private
bankers in Sleepy Eye, and since the
