Even tho new law seems to have a
few holes in it for tax dodgers. Stock
in building and loan associations which
are incorporated under the state law
are not taxable. The local association
has §3,600 belonging to one man, on
which the stock has matured and is
ready for payment, but the owner refuses to accept his money until after
the tax assessment.—Times.
City Assessor Siyler, of Ann Arbor,
has received word from the state tax
commission that this city must ra _e
its assessed valuation over $2,000,000.
Thi greatest share of this increase, as
far as rbal estate values are concerned,
will come in the section of the ciiy adjacent to the campus, Mr. Seyler thinks.
The state board figures that about
§700,000 ought to ba added to the personal property valuation. The announcement . causing much comment
about the city.—Five Press.
The question as to what is to become
of superannuated clerics in tho government service is becoming mijre and
more serious every day." In private
life, they would simply bo dropped, but
in the govern men t service they can
nearly all bring inllueq.. enough to
bear to pause their retention, even
when entirely beyond all work. The
salary cost is the least evil that results
from many bureaus have really twenty
or thirty per cent fewer clerks than
are shown on the rolls. Being apparently well supplied, Congress will not
furnish olbgrg and the service suffers.
All sprig of plans for relief have been
tried, Including plans for the retention
of parts of the salaries to form a fund
for pensioning old clerks aud plans for
reducing ihem to the lowest grades
and" salaries, but none of these have
succeeded so far.—Ex.

%i\e Inprfase of Nationalities.
From the Paris American Register:
According to a German statistician,
Jlussi. is tjia nation -which increases
the fastest—her population will double
in about forty-five years. Germany
needs sixty-five years, Austria-Hungary seventy, England eighty, Italy
.110, but France can only do it in 860
years, provided the present annual
increase does not diminish, -which unfortunately seems to be the case. The
loss of Alsace-Lorraine, with a population of 1,250,000 souls is nothing in
view of the insignificant annual increase of France's population. During
the last five years the population of
Germany has increased 3,000,000, wh^g
France's-inrrease has been scarcely
175,000—a considerable part of whom
aro moreover of foreign nationality.
A Miner's Danger.
Mr. J. G. Morgan, of Jackson, Mith.,
te Is a tale of suffering rarely equalled. Ho
says: "'From exposure to the wet and cold
in the mines, I contracted piles. Daring
1- years of torture almost indescribable, I
sought vainly for a cure for my trin{i>le.
The doctors ssvi4 nothing but a surgical
operation would he'p me. However, on
the r<:commendation of a friend, I began
the use of Dr. Chase's Ointmert. the
first application gave me relief and now I
honestly believe I am perfectly enr'^d."

Plymouth Binding Twine
A Comparative Statement showing the Cost and Value of Binding
Twine, based on the supposition that a farmer needs, to bind his grain,
<_0Q pounds of Plymouth Sisal, or Standard Twine, which runs 505 fee-
to the pound.
Three hundred pounds of Plymouth Standard or Sisal will give Mm
151,500 feet.
151,50.0 ft. of 505 ft. to the lb., weighs 300 lbs. @ 14c will cost $42.00
151,500 ft. of 480 ft. to the lb., weighs 315f lbs. @ 14e will cost S44.19
151,500 ft. of 470 ft. to the lb., weighs 322J lbs. @ 14c vvill cost S45.13
151,500 ft. of 450 ft. to the lb., weighs 336;. lbs. @ I4e will cost§47.13
151,500 ft. of 430 ft. to the lb., weighs 352J lbs. @ 14c will cost $49.33
We have recently tested twine sent us for examination, that averaged
a little loss than 430 feet to the pound.
The PLYMOUTH Twines are the only ones of these grades that n a
. 505 feet to the pound.    You saye.by buying them,  over the  lowest
grade, S7.33 on 300 pounds, or S2.44 per 100;   or 2   44-100 cents per
pound.    Therefore, if Plymouth sells for 14 cents per pound,   the  other.
should sell for 11 66-100 cents, to be as cheap, and others in  proportion
