VINOL MAKES

Positive-Convincing Proof

Many so-called remedies for amaze

ers are afraid to prove their claims by
telling what their medicines contain.
The only way to be honest with the
people is to let them know what they

what medicine contains, it ceases
to be a patent" medicine.

Any doctor will tell you that the in

You can prove this at our expense

APPELLATE COURT RULES
ON TAX EXEMPTION LAW

Frankfort. KY. April 1.-THE first
opinion OF the April term was handed
down today by the Court OF Appeals in
the case OF o. NJ. Elam against william
Salisbury. Mayor Of Ashland, reversing
the Boyd Circuit Court
The city had undertaken by resolu-
ton 10 exempt the Ashland Leather
Company from taxes for five years af-
ter it's plant had been burned down and
other cities had offered It Inducements
to move. Elam brought suit to declare
the resolution void and to require the
Council to reassess the property. The
assessment according to the petition.
hadbeen made in lump sum for a
maximum OF $4,000 when the property
was worth approximately 81 600, 900.
The Circuit Court dismissed the suit
on demurrer, but the Court Of Appeals
held that the resolution OF exemption
was void because cities can exempt on
ly new Industries for the five-year pc
riod. and II the allegations OF EIam's
petition be taken as true they stated a
good cause OF action.
