Chinese Medicine.

In "A Naturalist in Western China"
Doubleday, Page & Coz the author,
Mr.. f.. II. Wilson, pays considerable
attention to the country's materia
medca, expressing the opinion that the
Chinese are acquainted with a great
number of very active drugs unknown
TO Western science and well worth in
vestigating. In connection with this
subject he quotes typical instance OF
both Chinese medical superstition and
Chinese fiilial piety:
In Chungking. i'm 1908, an extraordinary
case came TO my. knowledge. native

only way 10 save her mothers life was 10

A new word is needed to meet new
condition. The process Of turning
novel into a play is called "dramatlza-
ton: the reverse, the turning OF
play into a novel. is awkwardly de-
scribed as "novelization." But what
word shall we coin to designate the
process of transforming a novel into a

ton? The movie rights of fiction
have suddenly become OF such I'M
portance that a verb and noun snouid

County Assessors
In Session Yesterday

III ocSblOu 1eStefuHy
The county board of assessors for
Anderson county, some rs strong,
were in session at the court house
yesterday the meeting being called to
order by Winston Smith, county au-
ditor, promptly on the stroke of noon.
The books OF returns were turned over
to them and they were instructed to
begin their canvas as 500 as pos
sible and to have 1t completed by
March II in order that the county Of
ficials can have every thing In readi-
mes for the county equalization board
when II convenes on March 81. The
board OF assessors Is made up of 3
men from every township and six
from some few townships.
This Is the year for returns to be
made on land and the responsibility Is
not light one. The work is always
hard. but every four years there is
rev assessment on land values. An
derson's lands are assessed higher
than any others in the state, than
even the famed. rich Marlboro lands,
and 1t is considered unjust to make
this county pay more taxes per acre
than any other
The assessors were given the tax
returns and they will go to their re-
spective township boards and go over
them.
