They wool 1 vault In reducing the taxe* on ral. way property wider the ants of ift. and 1006. They hare certainly done it 'The average rate of taxation 1: this State, prior to the enormous in urease of values upoa private pro pert by the county ttxboirds was over tw per cent., probably 2.S6.

MRS. C G. BENNETT, Alma, Mich. Epilepsy. Fit*. St ' Vitus' Dance and Spasms, are all nervous diseases. They have been cured in so many instances with Dr. Miles’ Nervine that it is reasonable to conclude that it is almost sure to cure you. With nervous diseases of a severe type, persistent use has almost invariably resulted in a complete cure or lasting benefits, worth many times the cost of the remedy. The best evidence you can get of its merits is to write to those who have used it. Get * bottle from your druggist Take, it all according to directions, and if it does cot benefit he will return your money.
