SUES FOR 100000 TAXES
Virginia Attempts to Collect Back
Taxes From Woman.

Richmond, Va, Dec. 27.-Suit for
100000, alleged to be due to the state
of Virginia and the city of Williams
burg in taxes, was filed in the Will
liamsburg circuit court against Miss
Marie MarshJl, wealthy woman who
for eighteen years has occupied a
handsome home near the state insane
asylum at Williamsburg under care
of the asylum physicians.
Until recently it had been supposed
that Miss Marshall's large holdings in
stocks and bonds were assessed for
taxation in New York, where she re-
sided before coming to Virginia. In
vestigation developed that this was
not the case and the Virginia authori-
ties directed that suit be brought for
taxes throughout the period since Miss
Marshall became a resident Of the
state.

Imitation Is Set at Defiance by

The ingredients for Tanlac are ga her

From the far North woods to Argentina,
below the equator; in Russian Asia, the
Alps, Pyrennes, on the sunny shores of
Italy, from Brazil, Sumatra, Peru, the
West Indies, and the slopes of our own
Uninterrupted Rocky Mountains, come
the roots, herbs, barks and even flowers

Tanlac, now universally known as the
Master Medicine, is proving invaluable
against ailments of the stomach, liver
and kidneys, and catarrhal affections of
the mucous membranes, which, when
neglected, so often affect the vital
organs themselves As a general tonic
for half sick, rundown men and women,
it builds up the tissues, creates keen
appetite, promotes digestion, vitalizes
the blood and brings back color to the
cheeks and sparkle to the eyes.
Tanlac may now be obtained in Clover
port at the Wedding Drug Store, where
it is being explained daily.

.PETROMORTIS HAS NO
STANDING IN new YORK
No Deaths IN That City From
New Disease.

New York, Dec 27.-Petromortis,
the improperly compounded name
given to a form of ashphyXiation Of
which Eugene NJ. humphrey, Chica-
go lawyer, is said to have died, has
no standing in New York. Mr..
humphrey was found dead in his ga
rage with the engine of his automobile
running. The corOner's physician laid
the death to "asphyXiation due to in
haling of gasoline fumes" DR. John
Ellis, head of the department of oc-
cupational diseases of Rush Medical
college, was quoted as saying:
THE gasoline fumes that caused
Mr.. Humphreys death were not car
bon monoXide. They were splitting
products of benZoine, and are so new
to science they have not yet been
named They are due to non-oxida-
ton to some of the elements of gaso-
line
DR.. Ellis explained that the fumes
were dangerous only in a closed ga
rage where they would kill almost in
stantly. He said he had heard of but
two deaths from this cause, both in
New York.
If there have been such deaths in
New York the health department does
not know OF them, according to DR..
W. II. Cilfoy, registrar of vital stats.
tics for the health department
DR.. w. H. Park, head of the health
departments experimental laboratory,
said that he had never heard of pois-
onous fumes as a product or by-prod.
uct of gasoline combustion.
