Editor THE NEWS:
 The communication in your paper last week, signed Taxpayer" and alleg- ing that the assessments in the town of Sharon are not capitalized, has caused considerable comment here and has aroused much protest. Taxpayer" says he represents public sentiment when he says that there is a lack of such equalization. I do not believe such is the case So far as I have been able to learn, the protests against taxation are few Where there are any protests they come, believe, from people who are not taxed unjustly but who think, at least claim, they are. How many people are there in Sharon to-day who would sell their places for the amounts at which they are assessed? There may be some such but do not know who they are.
 And then Taxpayer" says we are assessed for public conveniences which benefit the city people. Bosh The conveniences to which he alludes are, I presume, water, lights and sewer. The water is furnished by company and not municipally, and the same is true of the sewer conveniences. These things cost MT. Taxpayer not one cent unless he chooses to patronize these companies. If he doH't choose to have water in his buildings, or to connect his residence with the sewer mains, do not know of any law which will compel him to do SO.
 And as to the electric lights? Can he explain why they are not of as much benefit to him as to the city man who owns property here? They benefit him more than they do the city man because he gets the benefit of them at all times of year and the city man for only few months. And unless MT. Taxpayer lives within the fire district they do not cost him one cent in taxes. Would he like to see the electric current cut off and go back to the old and unsatisfactory street lamps? If so he certainly is decidedly lacking in public spirit. Possibly, too, he believes the state roads are built for the city man but they benefit him as well and he, or any other man, cannot truthfully say that they are not a great improvement over the former roads. They are worth every cent they cost.
 Furthermore he admits, in his article, that he does not, of his own knowledge, know what taxes half dozen people in the town pay. Here is practically an admission that he don't know what he is writing about. It has always been my belief that before man rushes into print to criticize conditions, persons or things, he should have some definite knowledge of his subject. He should know whereof he speaks and not base his complaints on fancied grievances. LOYAL.

General Passenger Agent Sarsfield
Crane of the Wabash. who made the
annual address at the convention of

Passenger and Ticket Agents. held in
Washington, D. c., said a few good
things that will appeal to the travelling
public In the course of his remarks he
said:
I'VE are engaged in trying to make
things pleasant for those who travel
those who are away from home and
among strangers in the midst of strange
and unusual surroundings, when kind
words and courteous treatment mean
so much and reach so far. The rights
of the public who have paid or are
about to pay, the legal fare are many.
They are entitled to know all about eV-
erything connected with their journey.
The evidence is growing that the gen.
eral public are beginning to think that
ticket clerks are short and crusty
am not charging that ticket sellers of
this country are not gentlemen, as
courteous and obiging as any class of
persons doing business with the public,
but 1 am after that class who treat me
discourteously-who answer any cues
lions with a freezing, supercilious air,
calculated to bring discomfort and dis
gust, and when they ascertain the posi-
ton l occupy turn so far the other
way. These things which come to our
personal knowledge bear out the state
ments made by our patrons. and we
should see to it that our employees con-
stantly bear In mind that they must
not lose sight of the fact that civil
questions. no matter how often asked
by the same person, must be answered
in a civil manner"
Touching upon the 2-cent wave of

Regardless of tradition, regardless of

Stuart's Charcoal Lozenges.
Trial Package Sent Free.


charcoal, pure, simple charcoal, abb
serbs 100 times it's own volume of gas
Where does the gas go to? 1t is Just
ABSORBED by the charcoal,-the gas dis
appears and there is left a pure fresh
sweet atmosphere, free from all i'm
purities and germs
That's what happens in your stom-
ach when you take one or two of
Stuarts Charcoal Lozenges, the most
powerful purifiers science has yet dis
covered.
You belch gas in company, some
times, by accident, greatly to your own
humiliation. That is because there is
great amount of gas being formed in
your stomach by fermenting food. Your
stomach is not digesting your food pro-
perly. Gas is inevitable. Whenever this
happens, just take one or two of Stu
arts Charcoal Lozenges right after eat
quickly they will act. No more beIch-
ings; no more sour risings. Eat all you
want and what you want, and then If
there Is any gas going to be formed,
one of these wonderful little absorbers
Stuart Charcoal Lozenge, will take
care of all the gas.
And 1t will do more than that. Ev-
cry particle of impurity in your stom-
ach and intestines is going to be car
ried away by the charcoal. No one
seems to know why 1T does this, but it
does, and does it wonderfully. You
notice the difference in your appetite,
general good feeling, and in the purity
of your blood, right away.
You'll have no more bad taste in
your mouth or bad breath, either from
drinking, eating or smoking. Other
people will notice your bad breath
quicker than you will yourself. Make
your breath pure, fresh and sweet, so
when you talk to others you won't dis
gust them. Just one or two Stuart
Charcoal LonZenges will make your
breath sweet, and make you feel bet
ter all over for it. You can eat all the
onions and odorous foods you want,
and no one can tell the difference.
Besides, charcoal is the best laxa-
tive known. You can take a whole
a wonderfully easy regulator.
And then, too, it filters your blood
every particle of poison or impurity in
your blood is destroyed, and you begin
to notice the difference in your face
first thing,-your clear complexion.
Stuart's Charcoal Lozenges are made
from pure willow charcoal. and just a
little honey is put in to make them
palatab1e, but not too sweet.
They will work wonders In your
stomach, and make you feel fine and
fresh. Your blood and breath will be
purified
