The time for the payment of taxes without peualty cannot be hereafter extended beyond the First Monday in May “and the First Monday In November.

Please do not ask to have your receipts made out tor iuture payment. No county enter will lie paid to any person owing delinquent taxes, and parties are warned not to purchase such orders as they will be held for delinquent tax of original owner. Bring your Road Receipts with you when you pay your first installment, as I cannot ta^ke receipts after my annual settlement in June. No Road Receipt will be received or credited unless presented by the person owning the land for which the receipt was given. It is the duty of taxpayers to call for property ou which they wish to pay. and see that they have separate receipts fur each township or town, and see that they are correct before leaving the office. , » ' Cau on the Auditor ftir any reduction i6 taxes. The Treasurer cannot make such reductions. * tax-payers will find it greatly to their advantage to call early and avoid mistakes Incident to the rush of business of the last few days. And those who have their-taxes complicated. such as undivided estates, are especially requeued to cAll when we are at leisure, as it requires considerable time to makefile divisions ami make separate receipts.
