INTANGIBLE VALUES FIXED List in Montgomery is Furnished. FooTs UP TOTAL OF sI,2776l7
  Proportion of Railroad Figures for This County Determined. Traction Company and Lisht and Wa ter Power Company Furnish Bulk of the Assessments in sehed-
 uie Furnished.
 

A list of the valuations of the intan- giole assets of corporations doing bus mess in the County of Montgomery has been furnished to the Tax Assessor of the County by the State Tax Commits sion, and foots up total of $1,227,6I7. This is the assessment upon the in- tangible assets of the various corpora tions operating in Montgomery County, and makes just that much of an addi- sion to the tax valuation of the prop erty of the County.
 The State Tax Commission has been busy Tor some time past in figuring up the proportion of the assessments of intangible property which are applica- ble to the various counties, and in sending them to the tax officials of those counties. The work Is now about completed, and the officials of Mont gomery County have received the list of intangible assets for this County.
 The itemized list of such assessments In this County Is as follows:

 AoIaI ..'. s... ..s....'. .*IizzLolI
 It will be noticed that most of the individual items of the list are the portions of the intangible assessments of the various railroad lines running into the County. The heavier items. however. are the assessments upon the Montgomery Traction Company and the Montgomery Light and Water Power Company.
 It is believed that these items are the last that 1t will be necessary to place on the assessment rolls of Montgomery County for the current year. and work will begin at once preparing the as- sessment books for the collection of taxes.
 Under the law, the collection of taxes is supposed to begin October 1 of each year, but 1t is somewhat doubtful. in view of the great amount of clerical work that remains to be done, if the books will pc iu shape by October for taxes to be received at that time.

Fine Health in Open Air.

The healthiest persons in the world are gypsies, and they live in the open air, but there is an erroneous idea that gypsies are people who defy the elements to destroy their health. On the contrary. they are very careful, indeed, of their health, even though living out of doors. They never go to bed with the draft blowing over them, but have free circulation around them, yet protected from rain and wind While sometimes seemingly scantily attired, they always are warmly clothed beneath, wearing warm underclothing. The consump- tives who go to places for their health are now living exactly as the gypsies, and because of the disease being considered contagious, they must live in tents. It is here that the efficacy of pure air is being fully dem onstrated, for it often effects cure if the patient is not too weak when the treatment begins.

Peruvians as Enqineers.

Next to the Romans, the ancient Persvians were perhaps the most eff. ficient civil engineers. Their roads were marvellous, and one, the highway from Quito into the Chilian dominion, was one of the most remarkable roads the world has ever known.
 It was 20 feet wide and 2,000 miles in length, passing over snow capped mountains, through canyons cut for miles through the solid rock, and across turbulent mountain streams and rivers. The feat of constructing this road might we'll try the skill of our best modern engineers,-Su Sunday Magazine.

HID HIS MONEY IN HIS TIE.
But the Cautious Farmers Secret Was
 Guessed by a Detective.

You have often heard the question, Where a mans treasure is, there will his heart be also," said a detective q saw in illustration of that not long ago on a railroad train. A detective employed by the railway company and I were seated near a countryman who adjusted his necktie every few min utes.
 That tie bothers the old man.. said to my companion.
 Don't think it's the tie replied the railroad detective.
 "Then he leaned forward aud said to the farmer, Better take yonr money out of that necktie'
 "'Who told you had money in my tie?' demanded the farmer.
 "The detective then explained that his actions in adjusting his neckwear led to the supposition. The farmer admitted that he had chosen the tie as the hiding place for a number of bills.
 His idea was all right concluded the detective, but he couldn't keep his hands off the cravat"

4 NEW PRIMARY

The next primary elections of Ark ansas will be held a little different to those formerly held in most leases. In the future the candidate receiving the largest number of popular votes will be declared the nominee. It will be better for everybody concerned There will be no squabbles'in state convention or in other conventions and it is really the simplest andlmost equitable way of holding the primary Objection has been urged to the law on account of the fact that it will be possible for a candidate to be nominated without hay ing received a majority of the popular votes. This is true but under the old system it was quite frequently the case that the candidate receiving the ma jority of the popular votes was not de- claredlsthe .nominee. It sdepends rof course on how many candidates are run ming. We belive the new primary will meet with the approval of the people of the state generally.
