The lows of health are taught in our schools but not in a way to lie of much practical benefit and are never illustrated by living examples, which in many cases could easily be done. If some scholar, who had just contracted a cold was brought before the school, so that all could hear the day loud cough, and know its significance see the thin white coating on the tongue, and later, as the cold developed see the profuse watery expectoration and thin watery discharge from the nose, not one of them would ever forget what the first symptoms of a cold were. The scholar should then be givetf' Chamberlain's Cough Remtdy freely, tlrat all might see that even a severe cold could be cured in one or two days, or at least greatly mitigated, when properly treated as soon as the first symptoms appear.

A Chapter of Montgomery Ooiinty 0ml Service. To tbo Editor oftJio Journal,
The commissioners appointed to assess the lands along the lino of ilia New Richmond road to raise the money to make it a free gravel rond assessed the 80 acre tract of Mrs. Mary B. Brown at 40 cents an acre, but by a clerical error it was transferred to the tax duplicates at 81.40 per aero. At 40 cents per acre the total tax was $32, nnd that is the amount that should have been charged ngainit the land on the duplicate, bti it was put on the duplicate for $112.
The first assessment of 10 per cent, under the error was $11 20, the second asseBsmont of 20 per cent, amounted to S22.40. When the error WHS discovered this $33.60 paid under the erroneous tax was $1.60 more than the entire tax as returned by the commissioners.
At this stage it does seem that common business methods would have suggest that the 80 acre tract should have been taken off ot the duplicate as no longer liable to tax to build that road, but instead it was kept on the duplicate, but for the next two years no effort was made to collect the tax and was not returned delinquent for the following year the tax was again collected on assessment of 40 cents per acre, amounting to $9.60 which was 30 per cent, of the $32, the true assessment. On this duplicate the remark was made, "this is error, taxed twice," but all the same the tax was sollected part of the time on an assessment of $112 and part of the time on an assessment of $32. $11.20 in excess of $32 was now collected and the tax-payer would never have known that this $11.20 was paid paid in excess of the $32 but in consequence of the waseful extravagance in the expenditures of the funds raised to build the road a second assessment became necessary.
In making the second assessment they followed the old error of $112 instead of the true assessment of $32 and as it was their judgment that the lands in this immediate neighborhood should be assessed 48 per cent, of the original assessment the land should have been assessed at $15.36 but in following the error of $112 the assessment of 48 per cent, was $53.70. To correct this error and to have the $11.20 overpaid on the first assessment applied on the second assessment, I went before the commissioners again.
After explaining the matter to them I reseived a note from Commissioner Bowers that he understood the the matter now and that I should have no further trouble about it and I did not, until I received a note from the purchaser at a tf.x sale that he had a deed to the land.
When I called the attention of the commisssioners to the outrage Mr. Fullen at once insisted that it was the duty of the county to refund the entire sum received at the tax sale, which was done on the 19th of October, 1892.
The warrant was drawn on the treasurer Nov. 5, 1892. Since then I have been informed that an instrument was or had been prepared for me to sign before the warrant should be drawn. That it was not presented it seems was a piece of oftical bungling. What it contains I do not know, but I suppose it is a stipulation that my wife shall surrender all rights she may havo against the county for the loss she sustained by the wrongful sale of the land. It was just as easy to draw a warrant to meet the erroneous asssessment as it was to draw a warrant for the re-pay ment of the amount paid by the buyer at the tax sale.
So far the wrong done up to the time ot the order of the comm'ssioners refunding the tax was due to the unwillingness or incompetency of the commissioners and auditor.
But the question now is, did the treasurer do his duty? He must either collect a tax or return it delinquent, but before he can return it delinquent he has some duties to perform. One of the duties is that before he returns real estate as delinquent he most make a demand either in person or by deputy for personal property to levy on for sale to satisfy the tax. TheTreasurer did not do this in this case, but he says he made a demand by a private circular on every delinquent tax payer in the county and, as I understand him, that was all it was necessary for him to do to return the land as delinquent.
Mr. Fullen holds that the law requires him to make a demand for personal property.
If the Treasureris right, then land can be sold for taxes, the deed made to the buyer, and the owner know nothing about it.
If he had made a personal demand, or liia circular had come to hand through the mail, which it nevt did, the case would have been different.
On a demand for property to levy on to satisfy the tax, we would have had the choice of paying the tax, or enjoining the Treasurer from the collection of it. It the Commissioners had not refunded the tax the transaction might have been characterized as "a robbery on the court house, but that feeling or opinion was realized later on

The friend became grave. "Why don't you sell that horse?" ho inquired. "What do I want to sell him for?" asked the owner indignantly. "For anything? you can get" "Come off! What do you mean?" "I mean I'd sell him. I wouldn't keep a horse that couldn't catch a 3:50 train."—Detroit Free Press.

An honest Swede tells his story in plain but unmistakable language for the benefit ot the public. One of my children took a severe cold and got the croup. I gave her a teaspoonful of Chamberlain's Cough Remedy, and in five minutes later 1 gave her one more. By thiB time she had to cough up the gathering in her throat. Then she went to Bleep and slept good for fifteen minutes. Then she got up and vomited then she went back to bed and slept good for the remainder of the night. 8he got the croup the second night and gave the same remedy with the same good results. I write this because I thought there might be some one in the sam6 need and not know the true merits of this wonderful medecine. Charles H. Thompseen, Des Moines, Iowa.
