Most Eminent Medical
 Authorities Endorse It.

pr. Eberle and Dr. Braithwaite as we'll as Dr. Simon all distinguished authors-agree that whatever may be the disease, the urine seldom fails in furnishing us with clue to the princi- ples upon which it is to be treated, and accurate knowledge concerning the nature of disease can thus be obtained. If backache, scalding urine or frequent urinntion bother or distress you, or If uric acid in the blood has caused rheu- matien, gout OF sciatica. or you suspect kidney or bladder trouble just write pr. Pierce at the Surgical Institute, Buffalo, NY; send a sample of urine and de- scribe symptoms. You will receive fires medical advice after Dr. Pierce s chemist has examined the urine = this will be carefully done without charge, and you will be under no obligation. Dr. Pierce during many years of experim entation has discovered new remedy which he finds is thirty-seven times more power full than lithia in removing uric acid from the system. If you are suffering from backache or the pains of rheunaa- Sisn, go to your best druggist and ask for 50 -cen6 box of seAnstT5c !" put up by Dr. Pierce Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription for weak women and Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery for the blood have been favorably known for the past forty years and-mo They are standard remedies to-day-as well the liver and bowels. You can get 8 sample of any one of these remedies by writing Dr. Pierce.

NOVEL QUESTION UNDER
 INHERITANCE TAX LAW.
Is Wife or Widow of Son of Testator,
 Who Remarries Exempt.

A novel question has arisen jp connection with the administration pf the inherftarre tax law. It re- fers to the position. as. regards ex-
 wife or widow of a son of the tes- tator, who remarries. During
 the many years the law has been in force the question has never be-
 fore heen raised. State Treasurer Chamberlain has submitted the
 P. Hinman. who has given an opinion that the woman must be considered.
 for the purposes of taxation, as a
 stranger to the blood
 According to the opinion of the attorney general a wife or a widow
 marry, is in the same class as the ineal descendants, and her inherit ance Is subject to a tax of 1 per cent. and she is entitled to an ex- comes a stranger by remarriage she
 must pay a tax of per cent on her inheritance, and the exemption Is only $500. It is remarkable that this is the first time. since the law was enacted, that the question has arisen
 The treasury department con- 1 tinues to be kept unusually busy with the work on the investment tax Miss Charlotte F. Dubois of Hartford has been added to the tenn poFry clerical force of the office. and 1t is thought that additional as-
 sistants will be required Every
 mail brings in a new batch of let
 ters containing lists of securities be-
 longing to estates. It is quite likely that officials of towns may be talk ing an interest in the operation of the law passed at the last session by
 which a tax of two mills per annum
 was levied on estates of deceased persons on which the investment tax had not been paid for five years previous to death. and on which To-
 cal taxes were not paid The law
 provides that eight per cent of the total amount of the tax of ten per cent for the five years shall be paid to the towns This Is an incentive
 to town officials to discover the se- curities which have escaped taxa
 tion- 1t is unlikely that any estate in the future will escape the pay ment of the tax as there is a pro-
 vision in the law of 1915 which pre- vents the settlement of any estate
 by a judge of probate until the tax
 is paid
 It is believed there are three or
 four large estates in the lower part of Fairfield county and in New Ha- ven county on which the tax of ten | per cent, for the five years preced- | ing the death of the decedent must | be paid before there can be a legal settlement of the estates. This | means that in each instance ten per cent. of the estate will be paid into the state treasury.

CORONER AT WORK
 TO IDENTIFY MAN
Writes to New York Address Shown
 by Pawn Ticket.

Coroner Franklin H. Brown on Mon- day visited the undertaking rooms of C. A Gager. Jr., and viewed the dead body of the man found Sunday night alongside the road in MontviIle on the New London turnpike. He found that the only wound or mark on the man was that on the forehead. which in- dicated a fracture of the skull. A small triangular piece of bone had been gouged out but the skull had not been penetrated so as to reach the brain
 The theory is that the man was struck by an automobile or motor cycle, but this cannot be ascertained definitely.
 There is a possibility that the ma chine hit the man in such a way, ac- cordfng to the coroner that the driver was unaware that the man had been struck, thinking that he had cleared him In this case there is no doubt that the machine was travelling at a tremendous rate of speed.
 The coroner has written to the New York address found on a pawn ticket in the mans pocket. He has hopes that this may help to establish who the dead man is. So far there has been no clue secured as to what au- tomobile. if any, struck and killed him

The inmates will first ba employed on the construction of a hospital dam. me last general assembly having granted an appropriation to the state hospital for the enlargement of the water supply.
