REMARKABLE SUCCESS

The famous Specialists who viii be
here Wednesday and Thursday are
having most remarkable success.
This is the third visit the Doctors
have made. Each time they seem to
be buster than on the previous date.
This can only be due to their marvel
GUS success. They select the cases
they accept for treatment. They do
not devote their time to the treatment
of incurable diseases.
If you will call upon them they win
examine you carefully. If they find
your disease to be a durable one.
they will tell you the exact cost and
probable length of time required to eff
feet a cure. Should you be so UNI
fortunate as to be suffering from a
hopeless disease they will be frank
with you and tell you SO.
They make no charge for consulta-
ton and examination.

ONE CENT CAUSES
LIVELY SQUABBLE
Citizen, 0vercharged by Single Sou
Refuses To Pay Taxes, Till De.
duction Il Made.

Lowell ]. Wicker, No. 119 Trow-
bridge-aye., clerk for the Detroit City
Gas Co., is stickler for accuracy
and justice. He associates with
figures in his work. and always works
out problem for himself. The as
SCISSORS Office found this out when
City Treasurer Max Koch received q
letter from him, Saturday morning.
Mr.. Wicker explained to the city
treasurer the details of an argument
he had had with one of the clerks
In the treasurer's office over one pen
ny, which he refused to pay.
When Mr.. Wicker called at the city
hall, q day or SO ago, TO pay his taxes,
he was told that the amount was
$43.59. Mr. Wicker Immediately
started TO figure out the taxes for
himself, with the result sthat he
found he was entitled to pay no more
than s43.5S, or, to be exact, $43.57S.
He offered the clerk a check for
$43.5s, but the official demanded
$4359.
The clerk then went into the as
SCISSORS ONCE and, after an exhaus-
tive search OF the books, found that
Mr.. Wicker was right; that a clerk
in the assessors Office had made the
mistake of charging Mr.. Wicker one
cent more than the tax rate and as
sessment called for. The clerk was
obliged to make good the discrepancy,
much to the satisfaction OF Mr..
Wicker.
In his letter to Mr.. Koch. Mr.. Wick
er points out that he didn't mind the
paying OF an extra cent, so far as the
monetary phase of the transaction
was concerned, but he rebelled be-
cause of the principle at stake.
I think Mr.. Wicker was perfectly
right In taking the stand he did" said
Mr.. Koch to The Times. Il should
have done precisely the same thing
myself. We don't want any citizen to
have to pay more money In taxes
than he Is rightfully obliged to do,
even II the amount In dispute be only
q penny"
The city treasurer is well pleased
with the way the citizens are coming
in with their taxes. The biggest
amount received In one day since the
taxes began coming In, a week ago,
was $77,300.05. After July 81, the
delinquent taxpayers, except those
who file lists, will be charged inter-
est of one per cent. The listers
big taxpayers and others who want
extra time for contributing will have
until Aug. 10, before being subject to
the addition OF interest.
The biggest individual tax, this
year, will come from the combined
interests OF the Edison Illuminating,
Central Heating and Peninsular Elec-
trio companies. Their taxes amount
TO a little over $4,000. The Detroit
city Gas Co., which was the largest
contributor In 1910, comes next with
S119, 900.
