1t is wrong to suffer from Indigestion when
Kodol means instant relief. Please let it digest
your food.
If your ankle was lame you would aid 1t. If the
body was weak you would rest it 1t is far more
important TO rest the weak stomach
Not by dieting, for that means partial starva-
ton. The body requires many, sorts of food To
cut out some elements means to rob some parts
But let Kodol, for little time, do what the
stomach can't do. Then see how quickly the
stomach RECEIVERS.
Undgested food grows hard, and irrtates the
stomach lining 1t causes Inflammation
times liberation. That is the source of the pain.
1t also ferments and forms gas. 1t decays and
breeds germs. And those germs load the blood
with their posons. That leads to serious
troubles.
Don't think that the stomach can ever get
strong while those conditions continue.
Kodol consists of all the digestive elements in
highly concentrated form. 1t digests all sorts of
food, and completely. 1t does all that the health
lest stomach can do.
Pepsin is part of it, but pepsin dgests albumen
only. Starch requires something else, fat some
thing else Kodol combines all that is needed.
Digesters which depend solely pepsin do only
what pepsin does They but halfway treat
ments. Other elements are just essential and
they must be in liquid form.
That is why Kodol is liquid. And, because it is
liquid, like the digestive juices, its action is in

WHY RATABLES
ARE LOWER
Tax Board Explains Drop Of
$1,179,722 III Assessment
Of Financial Institutions.
1907 AND 1908 METHODS DIFFER

The Morris County Tax board has
submitted statement as to the de-
crease in the ratables of the county
for the year 1908 in response to an
inquiry by the state board.
For the year 1907 the bank stock OF
the Morris County National banks
was assessed at 81, 408, 497; the Jwo
trust companies at a total assessment
of 81, ,324, 200 this made a total assess
ment for bank stock and trust COM
panies located within the county OF
50, 1872, ,69T. The Board has estimated
that of this amount ten per cent. OF
the owners of national bank stock re-
sided outside of the county, but with.
in the state, therefore from this should
be. deducted ten per cent. of the ST.
408, ,497 or S140, ,S49 which would leave
an assessment last year for trust com
panies and bank stock of 1851 ,848.
For the year 1908 the two trust com
panies were assessed 1861, 701 and ma
tional bank stock S611, ,5S3, making a
total of S1,473,2S4. Subtracted from
this, ten per cent of national bank
stock the same as in 1907, $61, ,158, leav-
ing Sl,4l2,12 Therefore, the assess
ment for bank stock ana trust com
panies within the county was thi:
year 81, ,179, 722 less than last year.
In addition to this, residing in Nor
ris county are number of people who
own stock in Newark banks, Jersey
City and Hoboken banks, Hacketts
town and Clinton banks and some who
are owners in Newton banks.
The board has gone over this care
fully and estimate an increased loss o.
about $4,000. This estimate include.
an assessment of $1,000 of Jersey City
bank stock which was sold outside tt
people residing out Of the county.
1t will be seen that there has beer
lost from our own banks and trust
companies 81, ,179, 722, from banks out
side of the county $4,000, making {
total of 81, ,259.722.
In the figures above the real estate
belonging to the banks and trust com
panies was first deducted.

IT'S NOW SHERIFF ORR.

George Slaw's Successor Sworn Into
ONCE This Noon by Judge Mills.
Sheriff-elect Calhoun Orr was sworn
into office this noon by Judge Alfred
Elmer Mills. Many men prominent
in county affairs witnessed the cere-

With Sheriff Orr's induction into
Office will go into effect the new law

sheriff's salary at $500. The salaries
Of the deputy and jail keeper are fixed
by Judge Mills and he has not yet
taken the matter up.
Sheriff Orr will continue T. Malin
Clark as deputy and has appointed
Ed. Carroll, Of Butler, as keeper of the
jail. Mr.. Clark has served as former

rubber mill at Butler and is highly re-
commended.
Former Sheriff Shaw will remove to

Morristown elee club Concert.

The Morristown Glee club has been
very fortunate in securing the assist
ance of Madame Emily Grey, the
Harpiste, for its Autumn Con-
cert" Wednesday evening, November
18th. In England she had the reputa-
tion of being one of the greatest harp
lists. She gave concerts in Crystal
Palace and Queens Hall, London, and
played with the Royal Opera Co. in
Covent Garden. In America she was
member of the Damrosch Orchestra,
and Of the Washington Symphony Or
chestra. She was the solo harpist at
the World S Fair, St. Louis. Madame
Grey has appeared before President
Roosevelt at the White House in
Washington, with the Symphony Or
chestra under the direction of 'Regi-
nald De Koven. This week she ap-
pears with Horatio Parker's Orches-
ira at New Haven, Conn. 1t has
been some years since a harpiSte has
been heard in Morristown and music
lovers should take advantage of the
opportunity TO hear SO noted an artistic
as the club has succeeded in securing.
In addition to solo numbers Madame
Grey will be heard in selection with
the club.
Mrs. Clara Wing Baldwin, violiniste,
who will make her first appearance in
Morristown at this concert, comes to
US strongly recommended as an artist
with ability and temperament. d. N.
Hood, who was Professor of Music at
the Rockford College, ILL.,, for forty
years, stated on hearing Mrs. Bald
wins work that he had never heard
a young lady play the violin with
more power over the instrument or
with more skill in evoking pure tone,
and that her playing was thoroughly
artistic, both in feeling and execu-
tion."

.fThe Thief,, at the Lyceum

"Charles Froham should parade
The Thief all over the United States
and compel as many husbands as pos
sible to see it," wrote Arthur Brig
bane after seeing Bernstein's master
piece. The quotation gives an idea of
the plays topica study Of the home.
Every wife, as well as husband, will
be absorbed in this remarkable story
of the woman who steals for dress, not
in vanity, but to hold her husbands
admiration. Bernstein is accounted
the leading dramatist of France to-
day. In "The Thief" he has not only
hit upon universal topic but he has
contrived an intricate plot which is
not cleared until the very last minute
Of the play. Its vogue in New York
was enormous, lasting for ten months.
