w. M. Johnson, market man, re-
siding at $40 Blanton street, says:
MY son, Lorenzo, was greatly bene-
flied by the use of Doans Kidney Pills.
Sometime ago he mad a bad spell of
rheumatism, the attack being SC
severe that he was hardly able to
move about. From that time on his
kidneys seemed to be badly affected
for he complained great deal OF a
steady, dull -ching pain across his
back and sharp pains in his kidneys
especially if he stopped or lifted any,
thing. A weakness of the kidney
secretions was very annoying at night
as it disturbed his rest. One even.
ing l saw Doans Kidney Pills adver.
tised in our papers and a box was
procured at ]. w. Gayle's drug store
He began taking them at my request,
and to my glad surprise ,as well as
his own, he noticed almost immediate
relief. In a short time the backache
had entirely left him, the difficulty
with the kidney secretions had been
corrected and he felt as we'll as he
ever did"

vidcs that the Territorial board of equalization shall at it's August meet ing be provided with an abstract of the capitalized assessment roll of each county instead of. ns at present. an abstract of the original assessment roll. which may be so greatly changed as either to neutralizc the action of the Territorial board or to render its action highly unjust. In other words. it is now compelled to act upon fig urcs that are in suspension and un. stable, so that in the very nature of things if can hardly act intelligentlv. Under the proposed revision i' will act upon an abstract of the cgualizcd assessment roll. and consequently up. on valuations that are fixed and ccr tain, an object which the Legislature has probably always intended.
 Another important improvement is that local boards of supervisors will now make their tax levy upon valua- tions finally capitalized by the Tcrritor. ial board; therefore the levics will ke made upon valuations that will not thereafter be changed by the Tcrritor ial board. Bui ihc most desirable change is that proposed in paragraph 3ss0. which makes the changes ordered in ihc assessment of any county by the Territorial board effective for the pur- poses of the county ns well as the Ter. riiorial tax. There has been such un. certainty upon this point heretofore that in several counties the increases made bv the Territorial board oi equalization were only respected in so far as the Territorial tax was con ccrned. Such m uncertainty. leading as it does to obvious complications and embarrassment, will be eliminated from the law by the proposed amendment. of equal merit is that which permits a more distinct and cx elusive classification of mines, as wei as all other kind of propcrty. Under the provisions of this bill, it would h, practicable to place copper mines ir one class. gold and silver mines ir another class. and non.producinl mines In another class, and sO on Then if II is found necessary for in, Territorial board to raise or lower in, valuation of one class of mines in given county, the mines in other classei in that county would not be aifectc, by the increase, or decrease, of th, class in question. That is to say, if i should be necessary t0 raise, for n stance. tbe valuation of producing cop per mines. it can be done without dis turbing the valuation of non -produc ing copper mines, or gold and silve mines. or any other class of mines.
 am hopeful. however, that the assess mont of mines hereafter by assessor and local boards. elected hy the pco pie. will be so fair that it will not b' necessary for the Territorial board t' take any action upon such assess mem whatever.

Ancient salads.

Ihe lettuce was deemed by the an.
clents the food of the dead because
when Adons. the beloved of Venus
was mortally wounded by a wild boar
the weeping goddess laid him upon a
bed of soft and tender lettuce. whose
milky juice possesses soothing and mar
cotlc qualities. Lettuce was eaten NV
the ancients at the close of their re-
pasts, as from its cooling qualities
1t was considered an antidote to the
heating effects of wine The bitter
herbs which the Jews ate at the pass.
over were wild lettuce, succory, tansy.
camomlle aud dandelion, and this
same race are the inventors of the sal.

salt and mustard to render the bitter
herbs palatable. The Irish two centu-

salt or mustard. Readers of classic
history will remember how a lettuce
