THIS IS WORTH SAVING.

The following simple homemade
mixture is said TO relieve any form of
rheumatism or backache, also cleance
and strengthen the kidneys and bladder
overcoming ali urinary disorders, if
taken before the stage of Bright's dis
ease: Fluid Extract Dandelion, one-half
ounce; Compound KargoD, one ounce;
Compound Syrup Sarsaparilla 3 ounces.
Mix by shaking we'll in bottle and take
in teaspoonful doses after meals and at
bedtime.
A well-known authority states that
these ingredients are mainly of veget-
able extraction, and harmless to use,
and can be obtained at small cost from
any good prescription pharmacy. Those
who think they have kidney trouble or
suffer with lame back or weak bladder
or rheumatism, should give this prescrip
ton a trial, as no harm can possibly
follow its use and it is said to do won
ders for some people.

Railway Valuation,
On Friday last the State Board OF
Assessors concluded a months review
Of railroad assessments, and declared
the valuation Of all the railroad prop
srty In the state to be $2O7 SIS. 900, as
against last years assessment Of $203,-
061.o0O. The total tax which the com
panies will pay this year Is $3,417,-
325.6O. Last years total was 1884
O21.45. The reduction In this years
revenue Notwithstanding the increased
valuation OF railroad properties Is due
to the decrease this year In the aver
age rate of taxation In the state. This
year the average rate is $16.4676 per
$1,000 Of valuation. Last year the rate
was sl7.4O46 per $1,000.

Chas. Rhodes Will Refund Money IL MI
o-na Fails to Cure.

Chas. Rhodes VIII Refund Money IL MI
o-na Fails to Cure.
You may ask why Chas. Rhodes is
able to guarantee to refund the money
unless Mi-o-na Stomach Tablets cure
when no other remedy for stomach
troubles is sold in this manner.
The reason for this is that ordinary
dyspepsia tablets merely digest the
food, while Mona builds up and
strengthens the digestive system so
that 1t soon begins to digest the food
itself without pain or distress.
II the stomach is only given rest
by using a digestive, the muscles soon
become weak. and it is necessary to
continue taking digestive tablet after
every meal. On the other hand, Mo
ma used before eating, strengthens the
stomach so that you will soon be well
enough to give up the use of medicine.
Mona costs but SOC a box, and
makes positive and complete cures.
The best proof of its merits is the
guaranteed to refund the money If il
does not cure that Chas. Rhodes gives
with every box.

THE TREASgX

session of the Board OF
Al the reGust October a resolution
supervised and carried, fixing the
was in>reasurer's bond at $4,000 the
coro be furnished by surety COM
~, the county paying for same. With
as understanding the board wanted the
county's idle money deposited with the
Gratiot County bank or banker Offering
the highest rate Of interest, who in turn
would furnish the treasurer with a
satisfactory indemnity bond. The SUI
preme Court has ruled that the statutes
did not confer power upon the Board to
dictate the kind of bond required or the
depository where money should be
placed and as result Of such ruling the
Board accepted the bond presented by
Mr.. Munson, as noted elsewhere in this
offer three per cent on monthly balances
for the use of the idle county money.
Mr.. Munson, as County Treasurer. can
deposit cash wherever he chooses, and if
the statement made sometime since
showing an average balance of over S67
600 in the treasurer for the past four
years holds good, Mr. Munson has the
opportunity of saving the taxpayers of
Gratiot County better than $1,000 year
II the use OF the money is worth per
cent TO any one of four banks it is GER
tainly worth as much to any one OF the
remaining seven. And if the Board of
Supervisors who represent the taxpayers
of Gratiot County, who elected Mr.. Mum
son treasurer, can not dictate to Mr.
Munson where the money shall be placed
there certainly can be no other dictator
to county officer and the taxpayers
will expect Mr.. Munson to care for their
interests by seeing that the county funds
are so handled as to bring TO the tax
payer the largest possible returns.

as follows The present method is In

upon an incorrect and unsatisfactory

November being the proper time to
make the distribution: If the present
method Is to he pursued. then the leg

II uses for instruction the balance
should be covered back into the state

NJ. CASIMIR -PERIER DEAD
FORMER PRESIDENT OF FRANCE
EXPIRES SUDDENLY AT PARIS
OF HEART DISEASE.

Paris, March I'm. Casimir-Perier.
ex-president of France, died suddenly
at II O'Clock p. m. of embolism OF he
heart at his residence on the Rue
Nitot here. The ex-president had not
been we'll for two OF three days, but
it was supposed he was suffering from
influenza and no great Importance
was attached to his indisposition.
Jean Paul Pierre Casimir-Perier was
the son and grandson of statesmen
His father, Auguste CaslmirPerler-
was minister of the interior in 1871
and his grandfather was leader of the
opposition when Louis Philippe as
cended the throne and afterwards was
premier. The eX-president was born
Nov. s, 1S47. After a brilliant career
as a student of literature and history
he joined the militia Of the Aube dur
ing the Franco-Prussian war and when
they were summoned to Paris Caslmlr-
Perier behaved with such gailantry
that he was mentioned in IN order OF
the day and later was decorated with
the Cross of the Legion of Honor. In
1874 he was elected to the chamber
of deputies and reelected in 1878.
After the crisis of May, 1877, he was
one of the 1863 deputies who refused
to pass a vote of confidence in the
Broglie ministry. He became under
secretary of state at the ministry OF
public instruction and retained that
post until the Defaure cabinet went
out of Office in 1879. In 1888 NJ. Cas-
imir-Perier was appointed under SEQ
rotary of state at the ministry of war
and in 1890 was elected vice president
of the chamber and president of the
budget committee. In the summer OF
1894 he was elected president of the
republic, Immediately after the assas-
sination of President CarEot. His ad
ministration was unpopular and he re-
signed Jan. Is, 1895.
