Pleasant Reading for the Fat

What a simple and inexpensive selv
ing of the fat womans problem the
Marmola Prescription Tablets provide.
She takes one of these harmless, pleas
ant, little tablets after each meal and
at bedtime and loses from II to Is
ounces of fat each day, and yet suffers
no harm. creates no disturbances in
wardly, and produces no wrinkles. This
elegant preparation (made exactly IN
accordance with the famous Marmola
Prescription has rendered exercising
and dieting for the reduction of excess
flesh as superfluous as a fifth wheel.
A further recommendation IL that II IS
the least expensive fat reducer In the
market, large case, costing only 70
cents from any druggist. or by mail
from the Marmola Co., 750 Farmer
Bldg. Detroit. Mich. containing
quantity of tablets large enough to
give very decided results in most every

stock Of every such institution would
be taxed at its. full; value. The real
estate and n~on-taxable Investments
would be exempt as now Just so far as
they did not. exceed in value the amount
Of the surplus and undivided profits.
The bill was prepared following the
decision Of President Carl Lentz. of the
State Tax Board against Newark's Tax
Boards assessment of the bank stock
on that basis. It means thousands Of
dollars in taxation to every municipal
ity. Taxesson the amount of property
specified would be q lawful lien upon
the banks shares. and might be paid
out of earnings accruing to the stock
holder of record. 1t is provided, too,
that all taxes upon bank stock shall
beTpaid o demand by the bank.
What Bill Provides.
The bill in part reads:
The shares of stock of every ma
tional bank doing business within this
State and of every State bank and
trust company of this State shall be
assessed against the stockholders in
the taxing district where the bank or
trust company is located, and the tax
assessed against any such stockholder
shall be a lien upon his stock from the
Sths day of May IN each year, and such
stock may be levied upon and sold by
the, collector on default OF payment.
and, moreover, it shall be the duty of
each bank or trust company to pay on
demand the tax assessed against each
of. its stockholders, and such bank or
trust company shall have a lien upon
THE sharessfo for such payment, and may
retain the amount SO paid out of any
dividends or earnings that might other
wise accrue to such stakeholder; the
real property of every such corporation
shall be assessed to the corporation
and deducted from the total valuation
OF the shares Of stock assessed against
the stockholders as hereinafter pro-
yided; the value of each share of stock
of each bank or trust company for the
purpose of taxation shall be ascer-
tanned and fixed by adding together the
amount of its capital, surplus and I'M
divided profits, and deducting there

= winter was long and rough. and
looked like 1t never would come 10 an
end. SO after they had spent all the
money they had. which was about nall
the winter through. They had no more
to spend. so they gave up and started 70
go to the poorhouse until the winter was
over. But one good nearby neighoor
| heard OF these people and sent them
| some vegetables and few chickens.
They could sell the chickens and
/ make few more cents. After this ono
/ Of the other neighbors thought they
could help little. 80 they began tax
inE up collection for the poor family.
They collected enough 10 last them
| the rest OF the winter through. SO
finally the winter came to an end; the
family was very glad to see it. soon
Mr.. Richardson and Henry got a JOB
working at sawmtll. They both
| made very good money and both were
near home. They all got down on their
knees and thanked God for the bless
ings he gave them the winter through
So after this they were never poor
people any more. The man and boy
worked steady and hard from thence
onward So finally the children were
grown and married. They lived happy
afterward UP until to-day, and hopo
the people will live happy forever.
Their father and mother were growing
old. so the girl took care OF both Mr..
and Mrs Richardson T!.ey We're all
happy because they had settled all
of their debts. How could they help
from being happy. Both Of the older
people lived happy ell OF their life and
died OF old age, Henry was good to
all and everybody, and he would share
with them what he had will tell you
story about Henry on his deathbed
About two hours before Henry died he
was feeling fine, and had lots OF COM
pany, who brought him fruits and
candies. and as Henry was going TO
eat an orange he said: 'gThis is to me
as ! am to thee. but before bite !
shall speak," and the words he said
were: II am weak and unable to work
or turn, but shall see. you all In
heaven at my side one day." and so
he ended these words by picking up
his orange. He began to eat 1t, but
he could not put the orange to his
mouth on account of being so weak,
so he asked one of his friends to hand
it to him. which he did, but Henry
could not chew it. SO he dropped 1t,
and he was almost gone. His dying
words Were: May you all be good and
love one another. and have this orange
1t the head of my grave; and good bye

ont as dead. which he was. SO his
mother and father had an orange OF
