Be Natural.

Holmes says that there are six peo-
pie present whenever two meet in con-
,versation-the real A, the real B, A
as he sees himself, b as he sees him
self. A as b sees him and B as A sees
him. The remark comes back when
one goes out upon the street and con-
lsiders himself and the other people
who pass, particularly those who seem
ion the slippery road to success. II is
not they themselves who go by; 1t is
what they would have other people
think them. If they are young and
inexperienced they must tighten up
their faces with an artificial solem-
nifty: If they are getting on in years
they must affect an artificial snappi-
ness. They wear their outward as
lpects like clothes. One feels like cry
ing in the ears of young men: BE
natural. Live or die, sink or swim,
survive or perish, but be yourselves.

Mannet Put 10 COCO use.

1t is not an infrequent occurrence
for steel and iron workers to get bits
OF metal in their eyes or hands. Pre-
vious to the installation Of a magnet
the only means of removal was by
probing, a method which is as uncer-
tain as it is painful. Since this ma
chine was put in operation it is a very
simple proceeding to extract such par
ticles. The portion of the body in
which the foreign particle is embed
ded is placed near the pole tip Of the
magnet, the switch is closed, and the
magnet does the rest. Some remark
ably small pieces have been extracted
in this way. The pole piece is remov-
able, a number of different shapes be-
ing supplied for various classes of
work.

Care Of the Feet.

This is a practical item, given by
one who has endured almost endless
torture as a result of tender feet and
corns. To remove the corns, soak
the feet in tepid suds. Soap a toilet
Ipumice and rub over the corns until
the callous parts are worn off. Con-
tinue this every day until the corn
disappears. Keep it soft with oils
If the corn is too sore in the begin
ming for this treatment, apply tur-
pentine for several days to kill the
pain. II the feet are afflicted with
soft corns, powder prepared chalk,
without making it too fine, and sprin-
kie between the toes. This does not
absorb the moisture or become caked
like talcum powder, and by being
coarser than the powder it separates
the two portions of the corn. Always
use white wool in preference to cot
ton to place between or under the
toes, because it is springy and will not
harden like cotton.

ASSESSMENTS
mitS County Commissioners To
Correct Any Mistakes Made
I'm the Renditions.


Under the terms of bill gotten
through the recent special session of
the Legislature, introduced in the
Senate by Mr.. Mcintosh of Duraut,
the county commissioners of the var
ious counties now have the power
to correct any and all erroneous as
sessemnts made by the assessor or
his deputies
Not long ago, many complaints
were heard of errors in the assessing
of property over the county, which
it developed, the county commission
ers had no power to correct. Had the
bill not been passed, taxes would
have been charged and collected on a
basis of the assessment, regardless
of the fairness or unfairness Of the
rendition. The text of the new law
is as follows:
"The board of county commisslan-
ers of each county Is hereby author
lied to hear and determine a.loga-
tions of erroneous assessments, Gis-
takes or errors made in assessing oi
preparing the tax rolls or in the de-
scription of land or other property,
before the taxes have been paid. on
application of any person or persons
who shall show by affidavit good
cause for not having attended the
meeting of the county board of equal
i7ation for the purpose of correcting
such error, mistake or difference,
and if upon such hearing IL appears
that any personal or real property
has been assessed to any person, firm
or corporation not owning or claim
ing to own the same, or that proper
ty exempt from taxation has been
assessed, it shall be the duty of the
board OF county commissioners to
correct such error, and the county
clerk upon tn order of said board,
shall issue a certificate of error to
the county treasurer, stating the
amount of such correction, which
amount the treasurer shall deduct
from. the original assessment or as
.sessed amount. and if upon such
hearing it appears that any such tax
has been paid through mistake Of
fact. either of the party paying the
same, or of any officer whose duty it
is to assess or collect taxes, the board
of county cOmissioners may refund
the same. but no refund shall be
made because of mistake of law. The
amount of taxes ordered refunded,
as herein provided, shall be a valid
charge against the county and shall
be paid out of the sinking fund of
the county by the county treasurer,
on order of the board Of county COM
Provided no refund shall
be made in any case where the taxes
have been paid for a period of more
than one pear prior to the claim of
such refund, nor shall there be any
claim against the county for any tax
es paid on the ground where the
same have been paid for a longer
period than herein specified"
