Rad Habits.

Those who breakfast at eight
o'clock or later, lunch at twelve and
have dinner at six are almost certain
to be troubled with Indigestion. They
do not allow time for one meal to di-
gest before taking another. Not less
than five hours should elapse between
meals. If you are troubled with indi-
gestion correct your habits and take
Chamberlain's Tablets, and you may
reasonably hope for a quick recovery.
These tablets strengthen the stomach
and enable it to perform it's functions
naturally. Obtainable everywhere.

RULES ON FEES OF
COUNTY ASSESSORS
INVERTEBRATES LAW REGARD-
ING ASSESSMENTS OF NON
RESIDENT TAXPAYER.
SAYS FEES ARE UNCHANGED
In Regard To Question Regarding the
Charge of IS Cents For Assessing
Automobiles, Mr.. ArbuckIe Says
He Found No Such Provision.
Little Rock.


In letter addressed to T. A
sloan, assessor of Clark county, at
Arkadelphia, John ID. Arbuckle, attor-
ney general, interpreted the law in re.
gard to fees for the assessment of the
property of nonresident taxpayers.
The substance of the opinion was that
the fees of assessors are unchanged
by the passage of act 254 and that for
each list of real property the owner
or owners of which are unknown or
non-residents, 81 is allowed, all such
lands in one township or range being
counted on one list; but if the lands
are in different townships. the asses
sol is to be allowed the 81 fee fo"
each township, provided that no fee
be paid the assessor for listing any
personal property or money unless the
said property or person is in the coun-
ty subject to taxation.
All persons living outside Of the
township where they have prop
erty are considered non-residents.
This, however, is not to apply in fix
ing the assessors fees as the statute
fixing such fees was enacted prior to
the present statute at a time when
the township was not ta.=en as a unit
In reply TO Mr.. Sloan's question in
regard to charging % cents for assess
ing automobiles, Mr.. Arbuckle replied
that he could find no law providing for
such fee.

London.-Field Marshal Haig has
begun new offensive east of Ypres.
The official statement from British
headquarters in France issued says
that the British attacked on wide

progress. A number of prisoners al
ready have been taken.
Field Marshal Haig's forces in the
offensive to the east of Ypres in some
places have penetrated the German
lines to depth of one mile and have
cverrun the crest of the Passchen-
daele-Gheluvelt ridge.
The British already have penetrat-
ed well beyond the hamlet of Broad
seinde. in which lie the. crossroads
formed by the highways between
Zonnebeke and Moornled and Pas

Everywhere the British have done
splendidly in one of the most preten-
tious offensives attempted on this
front. The attack was launched I'M

An unusual feature of the battle was
that near Zonnebeke three German
divisions, which had been ordered to
retake positions captured by the Brit
ish last week, were caught in the
British barrage as they were prepaf-
ing to advance.
