Y.rI.rn rnIIs of RuIlng.

Washington, Sept 1s.-In response to Inouiries made today as to the effect of his ruling made September IF re- xardinR the sale of proprietary ana patent medicines composed largely of distilled spirits or mixtures thereof, Mr. Yerkes, Commissioner or lnternal Revenue. said:
 'sIn my Judgment there is a possible misunderstanding regarding the mat ter. I simply ruled that manufacturers of compounds of the character named rnust nay to the Government, under the Federal statute. the special tax re- uuIred of wholesale liquor dealers and rectlfers. In addition, 1t requires the payment by the retail dealer who han dIes these goods of the special tax re- ouired of retail dealers, amounting to s2s a year The ruling was based on my construction of the statute, in view of the character of some of these com pounds" Mir. Yerkes refers to the rul- fngs on oleomargarine and undivided bank profts and says that in case the ruling on patent medicines is taken to the higher courts as were other rul- iugs referred to, every aid will be given to secure prompt hearing.
 MT, Yerkes added that he would pro- ceed as rapidly as possible, through the use of the chemical laboratory of his bureau to determine which of these alcoholic compounds would fall within the scope of the ruling of September IF. He said that full information would be given to manufacturers and retail dealers of the results reached. although 1t was possible that by De- cember 1. the date originally fixed by him for the ruling to be effective. the oflce would not have concluded inves- tiEation of all the various compounds referred to.

THEIR LAST ROLL CALL.
The Old City Council Meets for ths
Last Time.


Monday evening was the last
regular meeting night Of the retir.
ing city council, but owing to the
i..,' that election matters We're the
controlling features OF the day, a
formal meeting was held, and with
out transacting any business, adj
journment was taken till the follow
ing evening.
Tuesday evening there were
present Mayor Cook. councilmen
Hurlbert, Hughes, Hamilton, Mon
ahan. and Beebe; Councilman Ed
wards absent.
A petition was presented asking
the council 10 straighten out the
Burlington street matter by vacat-
ing part OF lot 6. block 4, and re-
ceiving in return from NJ. l.. Hol-
brook larger area OF the point pro-
jecting into the head of Burlington
street.
The petition was granted and an
ordinance passed legalizing the
exchange. Mr.. Holbrook then de-
livered to the council deed for the
parcel of land dedicated to the city
for street purposes.
The city engineer presented plans
and specifications for the Richmond
street dock. No action was taken
and the matter was tabled, and the
question left for the incoming coun-
Gil to wrestle with.
The recorder was instructed to
notify Long & Co. that the fire
apparatus had been accepted.
The attention of the council was
called to the fact that the $500 note,
with interest added, will be due
and payable june 10.
The following bills were allowed
and ordered paid:

The meeting then took the form
of love feast, as it were. Mayor
Cook made feeling speech, thank
ing the council for the cordial sup |
port given him during the year.
While not .regretting that the re-
sponsibilities of official life were
soon to be removed, yet felt par
sadness that the associa-
tions, made SO agreeable by the
regular monthly meetings during
the past two years, were to be bro
ken. His Hono,'s S remarks were |
timely aud appropriate, The
present all expressed
in the sanie strain, and

The Young Physician,
WHAT HIS EXPERIENCE PROVED.

In the early sixties it was usually the
duty of a practicing physician to ride
many miles every day on his regular
round OF visits upon his patients. In
those days young man who had received
a splendid medical training in one of the
best medical colleges Of that day was &C
customed to ride ten, twenty, thirty miles
pr more visiting the sick and afflicted.
His success was soon phenomenal. Doc
tors and families called him for consulta-
zion to towns at considerable distances
by rail. His speciality was the cure of
those common and distressing diseases
of women. He had early discovered that
by combining the extracts of the follow
ing medicinal plants, in just the right
proportion, without the use of alcohol his
prescription almost invariably cured
such cases. Later, in order to place this
remedy before the public in a shape easily
to be procured, he established a labo-
ratory at Buffalo, n. Y, where regu-
larly qualified chemists were put in
charge to accurately prepare his rPre
scription" and put it in shape for ship
ment to all parts of the world. This
remedy, which he named DIR. Pierce's
