FRANK 3. HOWE, Editor and PubllshG
Railroad Taxes.

Former Governor John l.. Barstow
Of Shelburne has written letter to
the state papers in which he calls at
tention to the way IN which railroads
escape taxes under the present laws
of the state. Gov. Barstow's letter is
as follows:
"The legislature and the people now
have an official statement from the
! commissioner of state taxes. such as
they ought to have had at every SEES
sion since 1884, but never before
have had. This report shows that the
railroads are not paying one-half the
rate of taxation that is assessed upon
the grand list Before Gov. Proctor
asked and obtained an increase of
railroad taxation in 1906, they paid
about one-third as much as the gen
eral public.
The legislature now has an oppor.
tunity to carry out in an intelligent
manner the advice of the minority of
the late tax commission. that railroads
be taxed "at the average rate levied
upon property throughout the state.
BY doing this they will also be in line
with 'Proctor's policies and with Gov.
Prouty's pre-conyention promises of
equal taxation
Nearly every paper in the state
from time to time bewails the condit-
ion of railroad ridden New Hamp-
shire, but that state assesses railroad
taxes at the same rate that property
is assessed on the grand list.
Mr.. George w. Pierce of Brattle-
boro, master of the state grange, was
the author of the minority report re-
ferred to above and was joined by Mr.
Olmstead, Democrat from Newbury
If the Grange and Governor Prouty to.
gether cannot remedy this injustice
the public may we'll despair. until
they awake and elect men to the leg.
islature that cannot be bought or
scared"
The state of Vermont does not stop
to inquire of the rest of us whether
we are able to pay taxes when the tax
lists are made out Why shouldn'
the railroads be assessed the same
rate as other property?

GROWS HAIR ION BALD HEADS
Bald Headed People May Get . New
Chance In Life.

In these days when youth is the
moving factor In business; when a
man makes his mark at thirty-fiye and
Is ready to retire at forty-hve; when
business houses pension the man we
call middle aged rather than allow
his tagging influence TO intrude upon
the commercial rush, a bald head is
almost fatal to any mans hopes. The
following must therefore prove inter
esting to people who are losing their
hair or who are bald
Resorcin Is one OF the latest and
most effective germ killers discovered
by science. and in connection with
Beta Napthol. which is both germicidal
and antiseptic. combination is form
ed which destroys the germs which
rob the hair Of its nutriment. and also
creates a clean and healthy condition
OF the scalp. which prevents the de-
yelopment OF new germs.
Pilocarpin is well known agent
for restoring the hair TO it's natural
color. where the loss of color has been
due to a disease OF the scalp. Yet, IL
Is not a coloring matter or dye.
This combination Of curatives mix
ed with alcohol as a stimulant per
fects the most effective remedy for
hair and scalp troubles.
The famous Rexall "93' Hair Tonic
is chiefly composed Of Resorcin, Beta
Napthol and Pilocarpin. II makes the
scalp healthy. nOurishes the hair,
