was in force when the property assess
ment of 1901 was made and is appli.
cable to the taxes OF 1902 payable dur.
ing the year 1903.
The amendment to this section
which became a law in 1902 to apply
to the property assessment of 1908 ap.
pears in the printed supplement to the
Iowa code and is as follows:
The property not to exceed $500 in
value, OF any honorably discharged
Union soldier or sailor of the Mexican
war or the war of the rebellion or of
the widow remaining unmarried of
such soldier or sailor. 1t shall be the
duty OF every assessor annually to
make list of all such soldiers, sailors
and widows and to return such lists
to the county auditor, upon forms to
be furnished by such auditor for that
purpose; but the failure on the part of
any assessor to do SO shall not affect
the validity of any exemption. All sol
diers, sailors or widows thereof refer
red to herein shall receive a reduction
or $500 at the time said assessment is
made by tbs assessor unless waiver
thereof is voluntarily made of said ex-
empton at said time; but this eXemp-
ton shall not apply in the case of any
soldier or sailor or the widow of such
soldier or sailor, owning property of
the actual value of $4,000 or where the
wife OF such soldier or sailor owns
property to the actual value of $4,000"
Under the provisions of this amend
ment the exemption from taxes of
property of $500 actual value is grant
ed to every soldier, sailor or widow
thereof, of the Mexican war and war
of the rebellion. The exemption APP
plies to any kind of property unless
SAID person possesses property to the
value of $4,000 or over, in which case
no exemption is to be granted
Some of the recent comment on this
question has taken on the form of crit
icism of County Treasurer r. P. Dana
for not allowing the exemption under
the amendment in taxes paid this year
made on the basis of the 1901 assess
ment. Treasurer Dana's action in not
granting exemption from taxes under
the amendment is entirely within the
law and in fact that official could not
do otherwise, as those who will care
fully read the sections above quoted
may see for themselves.

QUESTION OF TAX EXEMPTION.

During the past few weeks there
has been considerable comment among
3 Wapello county citizens in regard to
the question of rights of soldiers, sail
ors or their widows to tax exemption
and the application of the amendment
to the Iowa code concerning this ques-
ton of exemption In considering
this matter it should be remembered
that the amendment TO the exemption
law came in force in 1902 to be ap-
piled TO the assessment OF property in
1903. which is payable in the year 1904.
In order that taxpayers of Wapello
county may become acquainted with
the provisions of this law the Courier
herewith presents the exemption clause
as it appears in the Iowa code of 1897,
paragraph Z of section 1904:
The homestead, not to exceed $500
In actual value, of the widow of any
union soldier or sailor who died during
the late war while in service, or who
has died since; also the homestead,
not to exceed $500 in actual value OF
any honorably discharged union sol
der or sailor unable to perform manu-
al labor and dependent thereon for the
support of himself and family; but the
value OF any other real estate owned
by him shall be deducted from such
exemption. In case of the living sol
der or sailor, the assessor shall note
the fact OF the claim to exemption on
the assessment roll and the same shall
be subject to reversal by the board Of
review"
This original law plainly states
that any soldier. sailor, or
widow, thereof, in order to Sc
cure said exemption must ap-
pear before the board of review and
show that he is dependent on his home
stead, not to exceed $500 in actual
value, for support and that he is physi-
cally disabled to perform manual Ia
Dor and upon the decision of the board
depends the exemption. This law

UNLUCkY THIRTEEN
MISS MAUD CAMERON TELLS HOW Hen
TROUBLE STARTED.
Thirteen is an Age at Which Many Girls
Contract Disorders that Remain
Through Life.

Growing girls may easily lay the
foundation Of much future misery un-
less the nourishment of blood and
nerves keeps pace with growth. AT
the first critical period of their lives
this is particularly true, as is shown
by the experience of Miss Maud Cam
eron of No. 10. West Friendship street
Providence, r. l. Miss Cameron says:
six years ago, when | was but thir-
teen years old, began to be in mis-
cradle condition and for four years
grew worse. l was SO thin and pale
so colorless that looked like a ghost.
had little or no desire for food and
was in dreadful condition and felt
miserable. | had no life at all and
when got up in the morning | was as
tired and languid as when | went to
bed / obtained no rest or refresh
ment from my sleep. / had headaches
and felt bad all the time. For four
years this condition continued and dur
ing that time my mother had paid a
great deal of money to doctors, none
of whom did ME any permanent good.
Then she tried many remedies she saw
advertised, in the hope that they would
do me good. but obtained no more
relief from them than had from the
medicines the doctors gave me.
"One day, about two years ago, my
mother read about DR.. Williams Pink
Pills for Pale People. She said she
wished me to try them, so got some
at O'Donnell's drug store, No. 514
Broad street. When ! had finished
the first box my mother said really
believe you begin to look better and
l told her | already felt better. | was
greatly encouraged and continued TAX
ing them until was cured. 1t is a won
derfnl remedy and have told a great
many people about it. My mother has
often said that ought to write to the
Dir. Williams Medicine Co.. to tell what
the medicine had done for me. l am
glad to make this statement, for Pink
Pills for Pale People cured me-"
The pills which cured Miss Cameron
have accomplished as wonderful re-
suits in hundreds and hundreds of ev-
en- more severe cases. They have prov.
ed specific for locomotor ataXia, par
tial paralysis, st. Vitus' dance, scia-
tica, neuralgia, rheumatism, nervous
headache, after effects of the grip,
palpitation of the heart. pale and sal
low compilations and all forms of
weakness either in male or female. DR..
Williams Pink Pills for Pale People,
are sold by all druggists. or will be
sent direct from Dr.Williams Medicine
Co. Schenectady. N. T., postpaid on
receipt of price, fifty cents per box;
six boxes for two dollars and half.
