The state board of equalization con-
sisting of Governor Sarles, Treasurer
Peterson, Auditor Holmes, Attorney
General Erich, and Commissioner Gil
breath, met at the capitol this after
noon and organized. The session of
the board will probably occupy from a
week to ten days. 1t is the duty Of
the board to go over the abstracts
from the several counties, equalizing
values and to assess outright the rail-
roads, telegraph, telephone and ex-
press companies in the state. Repre-
sentatives of the different railroads,
including Messrs. Dudley of the Mil
waukee, Foster Of the Northwestern,
Fernald Of the Northern Pacific and
Wilkinson of the Great Northern are
In the city to appear before the board
and present the case of the railroads
with reference to taxation. It is not
thought there will be any radical
changes in values at the present ses-
sion. The natural increase of prop
erty in the state, it is thought, will
bring the total valuation to between
160 to ITO millions, and other in
creases made by the board will prob
ably make the total valuation some
where In the neighborhood of ITS
million. There is not much increase
to the amount Of railroad Mileage in
the state this year, but number of
branches are building and in another
year there will be an increase of four
to five hundred miles in the total Of
railroad mileage. In determining the
valuation of property and the revenues
for the ensuing two years, it will be
necessary for the board to take into
consideration the large appropriations
made by the last legislature. A num-
Der OF new buildings were authorized
and other extraordinary expenses in
Cured, and to meet all Of these ap-
preparations, to pay the current run
ming expenses OF the state, the board
will find it necessary to fix a total
valuation and make the tax levy sufi-
cieIt to meet these obligations. With
one or two exceptions, the abstract Of
county valuations have been received
from the several county auditors, and
these are used as basis for the
equalization work by the board. Some
large increases are shown in the total
Of real estate acreages, where lands
have passed from the government to
the homesteader, and some counties
show an increase in taxable real prop
erty Of thousands of acres, which of
course will increase the total valua-
ton. t

Kansas. City, Dec. 9.-Judge Gates,
in the circuit court, today rendered a
judicial decision to the effect that a

objected to the skirt item and refused

after trying in vain to collect the bill

skirt was not an article Of necessity he
was not bound to pay for it, and Judge
Gates upheld his contention, rendering

What Sulphur Does
For the Human Body in Health and
Disease.

A<AoSeNoOs i
The mention of sulphur will recall to
many of us the early days when our,
mothers NJ n;5Et ian and grandmothers gave US our our
every spring and fall:
It was the universal spring and fall
" blood purifier, tonic and cure-all, and
mind you, this old-fashioned remedy
was not without merit.
The idea was good, but the remedy
was crude and unpalatable, and large
quantity had to be taken to get any
effect.
Nowadays we get all the beneficial
effects Of sulphur in palatable, con
centrated form, SO that single grain
is far more effective than tablespoon
ful of the crude sulphur.
In recent years, research and expert
ment have proven that the best sulphur
for medicinal use is that obtained from
in drug stores under the name Of
Stuart s Calcium Waters. They are
small chocolate coated pellets and con-
tain the active medicinal principle of
sulphur in highly concentrated, ef-
fective form. ..-
Few people are aware Of the value
Of this form of sulphur in restoring
health; sulphur acts directly on the
liver and excretory organs and puri6ss
and enriches the blood by the prompt
elimination Of waste material.
Our grandmothers knew this when
they dosed us with sulphur and mo-
lasses every spring and fall, but the
crudity and impurity of ordinary flow
ers Of sulphur were often worse than
the disease, and cannot compare with
!! the modern concentrated preparations
| Of sulphur, of which Stuart g Calcium
| Waters is undoubtedly the best and
most widely used.
They are the natural antidote for
liver and kidney troubles and cure
| constipation and purify the blood in a
way that often surprises patient and
physician alike.
Dr.. R. NJ. Wilkins while experiment.
ing with sulphur remedies soon found
that the sulphur from Calcium was
superior to any other form. He says:
For liver, kidney and blood troubles,
| especially when resulting from consti.

the city council have about decided to be-
gin the construction Of a new bridge
across Lake st. Croix, between Saltwater
and. Houlton, as soon as possible, the old
pontoon and it's approaches having prac-
tically outlived their usefulness. The
pontoon has been In g. ~leaky condition
since the bridge was closed by the forma
ton Of ice and it has been necessary to
keep pumps in operation to keep 1t from
sinking. - - .,, -
Legislative authority has been given the
city to issue bonds for a new bridge, and
at the next meeting Of the council some
plan for the construction Of bridge
will probably be discussed. Several alder
men favor the construction Of high steel
BRIDGE. while others believe it would be
better to make long fill from the Wis
consin side Of the lake and build a draw
near the Minnesota side. At any rate q
large sum Of money will be expended
inasmuch as it is considered that the OLD
bridge Is no longer safe and 1t is just
a waste of money to keep 1t in repair

Origin of DOminOs.

Two monks who had been committed
to a lengthy seclusion beguiled the
dreary hours Of their confinement with
a game played by showing each other
small fiat stones marked with black
dots. By preconcerted arrangement
the winner would inform the other
player Of his victory by repeating in
an undertone the first line of the YES
per prayer. In process of time the two
monks managed to complete the set of
stones and to perfect the rules of the
game, so that when the term of incar-
ceration had expired the game was SO
interesting that it was generally adopt
ed by all the inmates of the monastery
as a lawful pastime. 1t very soon
spread from town to town and became
popular throughout Italy, and the first
line Of the vespers was reduced to the
single word Domino" by which name
the game has ever since been known.
