CAN'T BEAT "TIZ"
WHEN FEET HURT

Just take your shoes off and then
put those weary, ~shOe-crinkled, ach-
ing, burning, corn-pestered, bunion-
tortured feet of yours in a "Tiz"
bath. Your toes will wriggle with
10y; they'll look up at you and al
most talk and then they'll take n
other dive in that "Tiz" bath.
When your feet feel like Jumps Of
lead-all tired out-just try "Tiz."
It's grand-it's glorious. Your feet
will dance with joy; also you will
find all pain gone from corns, cal
lOuses and bunions.
There's nothing like "Tiz." It's
the only remedy that draws out all
the poisonous exudations which puff
up your feet and cause foot torture,
A few cents buy a box of "Tiz" at
any drug or department store-dOn't
wait. Ali how glad your feet get:
how comfortable your shoes feel.

out the state are complaining, the most recent
criticism having come from Butte and Anaconda.
AT those cities it is declared that, because of the
manifold duties Of teachers in giving examinations
and correcting papers, promotions cannot be an

General Fund Gorged With

Due to an anticipated 100000

valuation, the much heralded plan
Of the administration to slice cents
off the State levy may meet with
some difficulty, in the opinion OF GER
tain public officials
Last year the total State valua-

previous year it was $5,362, ,S21 ,72S.
A 2S-cent levy was maintained each
year.
Reduction SEEM
On the basis of early reports from
county auditors a sweeping reduc-
ton in property values is seen by at:
taches of the State tax board. Real
estate valuations remain the same
this year, since the reassessment
scheduled for 1925 was moved UP a
year by the legislature. Valuations
fixed by the State tax board have
shown slight increase in the ag-
gregate but by no means sufficient
to counterbalance the much larger
reduction in personal property value.

It Is hardly to be expected that there
