FREEDOM FROM
LAXATlVES
Discovery by Scientists Has Replaced
Them.

Pills and salts give temporary re-
lief from constipation only at the ex-
pense of permanent injury, says an
eminent medical authority
Science has found a newer, better
way-a means as simple as Nature
itself.
In perfect health a natural lubricant
keeps the food waste soft and moving.
But when constipation exists this nat
ural lubricant is not sufficient. Medi,
cal authorities have found that the
gentle lubricaring action Of Eujol most
closely resembles that Of Natures own
lubricant. AS Nujol is not laxative
it cannot grippe. 1t Is in no sense a
medicine. And like pure water 1t Is
harmless and pleasant.
Nujol is prescribed by physicians
used in leading hospitals. Get a bottle
from your druggist today.-Advertiss-
ment.

Secret Service Men lnvesti-
gate Operations of New
Yorker Arrested Saturday

NEW BRUNSWICK. Jan. 20
Henry Tocker, alias Greenberg, ar
rested Saturday on suspicion of be-
ing implicated in the circulation of
counterfeit money, was today COM
nitted to ninety days in the county
Jail pending Investigations by agents
of the United States secret service
and the county authorities.
Tocker, who was arrested Sat
urday by County Detective Fred A.
David and Charles Collins on a
charge Of being implicated in the
circulation of alleged counterfeit
money in this section and spent the
weekend in the county Jail await
ing the arrival of agents of the de-
partment of justice, who will bring
Tocker back to New York The New
York authorities are expected to ar
rive today.
The secret service department of
the United States Government noti-
fled of the case have imm ediately
set to work to secure further infor-
nation on the alleged circulation of
bogus money.
Detective David is convinced that
Tocker has been active all over the
country in counterfeiting operations.
He said this morning he had records
showing Tocker was sentenced to
Sing Sing in July, 1918, for from two
to four years, on a charge of circu-
lating counterfeit money. After serv-
ing eighteen months, the detective
says, Tocker was released on proba-
ton. In Elizabeth on February 5,
1921, he was arrested on the same
charge, but nothing could be prov
e6 against him. He was taken back
to Sing Sing, however, charged with
breaking his parole.
Tocker was released from Sing
Sing in April of last year, Detective
David said. He also has picture
of Tocker taken by the Cleveland po-
lice in 1910, the county detective
says.
1t is believed Tocker was maneuv-
ering to have a South Amboy man
place counterfeit money in circula-
ton.

ESSEX COUNTY
OFFERS BILL
State Board of FreehoIderS
Also Consider Richardson
Tax Reducing Measure

NEW BRUNSWICK, Jan. 90
another meeting of the State Board
of Freeholders is being held in Tren-
ton today for the purpose of decid-
ing upon a bill which is expected to
relieve the present system of high
taxes. The proposed bill of County
Solicitor Frederick +. Richardson
cation at Newark last Friday, but
did not meet with unanimous ap-
proval. The Essex county board
submitted a bill, which also will be
considered at Trenton today.
The main objection raised to Solic-
itor Richardson's bill was the pro-
vision that no county would be per-
mitted to make up budget in the
future in which the amount to be
raised by taxation exceeded the
amount in the 1920 budget. This
clause, freeholders from various
parts of the state claim, will prevent
the proposed road building program
being carried out as the sufficient
funds will not be available. Mr..
Richardson has held that the
amount to be raised by taxation
should be kept down even if road
building operations have to suffer.
1t seems doubtful that the Mid

adopted by the state board of free
holders, a majority favoring the
Essex county bill which does not
limit the tax rate in this manner.
The main provision in the Essex
county freeholders bill to keep down
taxes is to have a committee named
in each county consisting of two
representatives from each county
department and three freeholders.
This committee will be empowered
to consider the cost of running the
various departments and fix the
amount. Their decision shall be final
and binding in this matter. No tax
Limitation clause is contained i'm the
Essex county bill and this is said to
meet with favor from various parts
of the state.

Woodbridge Woman Who
Was Burned Dies at City
Hospital

Mrs. Kate Shuminsky, tweuty-
seven years old, of AIT State street,
is in the City Hospital in a serious
condition as the result of burns re-
ceived to all parts of her body when
her clothes caught fire shortly before
10 o'clock this morning. The woman
was trying to extinguish a blazing
celluloid comb when her clothes
caught fire. She rushed from the
room on the third floor of the build
ing in which she resides to the street,
the breeze caused by her running
tanning the flames so that she was
completely enveloped in flames when
she reached William street.
Joseph p. Klein, a banker in the
employ of Louis Csipo, heard the
Woman's screams and rushed to the
street. He Immediately threw her
to the street and rolled her in the
snow, extinguishing the flames. His
hands were burned. A neighbor, at
ira cted by the Woman's screams,
furnished blanket and the burned
woman was again taken into the
building and upstairs to her rooms.
Lieutenant Andrew Jensen was
notified at police headquarters and
he at once sent the police ambulance
and Patrolman Joseph Gaydos. The
officers notified DR.. John V. Smith,
who ordered the wcnan taken to
the hospital at once.
Upon arrival at the hospital DR..
Martin S. Meinzer treated her burns.
1t was said at the hospital shortly
after the woman had been brought
in that her burns were considered
very serious. 1t is not known Wheth-
er or not she will be able to recover.
Mrs. Shuminsky was alone In her
rooms with her two children at the
time. One of them had thrown
celluloid comb on the stove and it
had fallen to the floor blazing. In
her efforts to extingui / the small
blaze Mrs. Shuminsky stamped upon
the comb. The lower portion OF her
dress caught fire and the names
quickly enveIoped her body. The
woman's husband was at work at the
time, he being employed in the Stan
dard Underground Cable works.
