What is meant by "The Nth Com

In the case OF the Paramount pro-
duction of that title which shows at
the Eltinge theater Honday and Tues
day, it seems to mean Thou shalt
not fool thy husband"
The picture should be interesting
to all housewives. 1t Is to be COM
pared to "Humoresque," since the au-
thor, director and scenarist combined
to create that successful production,
and it is similar in its appeal. Col
leen Moore, James Morrison and Ed
die Phillips play the leading roles.
1.-THE Gall Of the Wild" round six

TAXES MUST
NOW BE PAID
STATE AND COUNTY TAXES
LOWER-VILLAGE TAX
is HIGHER.

Tax notices are now in the
hands of all tax payers, they
having been mailed out by the
thousands last week by Otie l..
Cone, county treasurer and tax
collector.
State and county taxes have
been greatly reduced but the
village tax in Cottonwood took
a Jump from SLIGO hundred in
1922 to $3.50 a hundred in 1928.
The jump in the Cottonwood tax
is due TO the creating of a sink
ing fund to pay off the $4,000
bond issue. Even with the ad-
vance, Cottonwood is within one
cent of having the lowest village
tax in the county on each 500
valuation. The Cottonwood
highway and school district tax
is the same as last year, 83 and
80 cents on each 500 valuation.
The 1922 county tax was $1.33,
this year $1.10; the 1922 state
tax was 56 cents, this year so
cents on each $100 valuation.
All taxes extended on the
real property assessment roll are
payable to the tax collector with
out penalty, on and after the
fourth Monday of November and
prior to the fourth Monday Of
December of each year. Taxes
become delinquent after the lat
ter date and a penalty of 2 per
cent is then added. This does
not include tax assessment on
personal property, which roll is
made up by the county assessor
and submitted to the board Of
county commissioners which
convened as board Of eoualiza-
ton for that purpose, Monday.
This tax on purely personal pro-
perty is collected when the pro-
perty is assessed, any time dur
ing the year irrespective of the
other real property tax.
All taxes are payable in two
installments, the first of which
becomes due on the fourth Mon.
day in November, and the re-
naming half on the fourth Mon
day in June Of the following
year. With every tax notice
sent out a slip was enclosed
showing the different tax levies
and their amounts. By far tn,
largest percentage of the ia,
levy comes from the assessment
for highway districts, schools
and incorporated towns.

ACID EXPLODES.

c. 0. Perrenoud, proprietor OF
the Rexall Drug Store, had a
narrow escape from being seri-
ously burned Monday by carbolic
acid and only his presence Of
mind saved him from having his
face SCARED for life. Mr.. Per-
renoud was heating the acid, in
crystal form to liquidize the
same. While waiting upon Gus
toners, he forgot the acid, that
he was heating. Later while
placing fuel in the stove the
bottle upset and the cork fell out
spilling the acid over the hot
stove and exploding, striking Nh.
Per1enoud's hand and the left
side of his face. The acid mis-
sed his eye by the fraction of an
inch. Mr.. Perrenoud states that
he knew at once what had hap
pened and in an attempt to pro-
tect his face his hand was burn
ed.
He Immediately rushed to ar
alcohol bottle and treated the
burns, it being this treatmen!
that saved him from the carbolit
acid seriously burning and scar
ring his face and hand.

ing when the building owned by
the Won Berge estate was COM
pletely Quilted and the restaurant
fixtures, owned by H. E. Corum,
destroyed. The building was
used by Corum as a restaurant.
Mr.. Corum gave the alarm and
aroused occupants of neighbor-
ing buildings and reported that
a masked man had held him up
and after getting no valuables
gagged him and tied his hands
behind his back with a bailing
wire and then set fire to the
building.
The blaze proved to be ex-
ceedingly hard to fight, owing
to so much smoke, and only good
work on the part of the Grange
vile volunteer fire department
confined the blaze to the Won
Berge building.
