We 't take them at all. Come in we will tell you whether you be cured. No charge for this.

Tax Collector Edward J. Smith issued a statement yesterday containing hints to taxpayers which will materially aid them in settling their obligations with the city government, The statement, which gives valuable information as to the method of procedure necessary to avoid any friction or inconvenience, follows: 1 Taxes will be due and vayable at the @ax Collector’s office, City Hall, on and after Mon- day, October 13, 1902. The first installment of taxes will be delinguent and 15 cent enalty added from and after Novel 24, 1902, at 6 o'cloek p. m. ment is que and payable from and after Jaa- uary b, 1903, and o per cent penalty will be adaed from 'and after April 27, 1903, at ¢ o'clock p. m. It s optional with the taxpayer to pay both installments at the same time. If convenlent | the Tax Collector would advise the payment of both imstallments between October 15 and November 24, 1902. In making application ior your tax bill, which can be done on and after October 13, 1002, bring your last year's tax bill; this will expedite the getting out of the new bill and the old bill will be returned to_you. Taxpayers who have a Jarge number of bills to be made out should send in their lists as early as possible. The list should contain the ‘‘reference’” from last year's tax bills, the name of the owner and also the address where the bills can be malled or sent. By ‘‘refer- ence’” is meant the number of the volume, the page, block and subdivision, to be found on last year's tax bill. Be particular that you get all your tax bills. Your real estate may be fully covered by mortgage and there may still be a personal property tax to pay. When paying your tax bill inform the cashier whether you want to pay both installments or the first instaliment only. When personal property is secured by real estate the persoual property tax must be paid with the first in- stallment of real estate taxes. The tax rate this vear is $1.6082; last year it was $1.5562, consequently it is .052 higher than last year. All perzons who have pald taxes on their personal property to the Assessor this year will have to pay this additional tax of .052 on each $100 valuation to the Tax Collector. No matter how small the amount of the tax may be (in some instances it will not be over 2 cents) the Tax Collector would advise that the same be paild promptly. The tax bills on unsecured personal property will be mailed to every taxpayer where the address is known on or about October 13. Taxpavers -are earnestly requested to bring the bill malled to them when they pay their taxes, as by doing this they will avold the delay of making out = new bill. Checks will not be received after the ITth day of November, 1002, and the 20th day of April, 1908. When sending bills with cheeic please state whether payment is made for one or both instaliments, Rail Rates Reduced Via Santa Fe. During September and October the San- ta Fe will sell tickets to San Francisco at the following rates: From New York, $50; Boston, $49 90; Chicago, $33; St. Louis, Memphis and New Orleans, $30; Kansas City, Omaha, Sioux City and Fort: Worth. $25, and reduced rates from intermediate points.

In chronic cases of Consumption, | Cancer, Asthma and Rheumatism 1t brings instant relief and the patient secures that for which he has sought in vain; relief from pain, and consequently sweet, refreshing slumber. There is no agent which is a more powerful aid to the physician in the upbuilding of & broken down constitution than wholesome, nut- ural sleep, uninduced by druge. In order to se- cure this kind of rest the patient must be first relieved from pain, and that is what (he Electro-Chemic trestment accomplishes. In the past the c Institution has cured thousands of cases, and hundreds of patients have signed voluntary testimonials as o its merits as u healing agency. of Catarrh, Asthma and Rheumatism of twenty years' standing have been cured, and consump- tives, even in the third stage of the disease, have left its doors compietely cured. A case of cancer of thirty years' standing was cured, and the patient was a physician who had pro- | nounced his own case hopeless. In en of mervous prostration and mervous debility Electro-Chem- | imeans heve been tried in istry gives instant relief, and the patient secures that rest which is so much needed and so seldom ob- tained in these diseases. Electro-Chemistry cures Catarrh when patent medicines and family physicians have failed. In the treatment of Deafness Electro-Chemistry has been phe- uomenally successful and that without the use of the knife or the upplication of drugs. Electro-Chemistry cures Rheuma- tism by first scattering the discase and then driving it out of the sys- tem. The first treatment invariably brings rellef to even the worst ases. The Electro-Chemic treatment quickly cures Consumption in its first and second stages, and several cures of this dread disease have been made even in its third stag Electro-Chemistry will go itively and permanently cure that most nauseating and offensive of diseases —Cancer—ywithout the use of the knife or caustics, and at a much smaller cost than an operation.

Thus the great mathematician was to write down plain!y and succinctly the great truths of mathematics. The his~ torian wrote of history, and the geographer of the countries of the world. And so with every branch of human knowledge. > 3 : These great teachers labored for years, and finally completed their task. The result was gathered together in logical order and printed in clean, plain type-and illustrated with beautifully clear engravings as an assistance to the memory and to vivify the text. The whole was strongly and neatly bcund and carefully indexed. Then it was given to that portion of the world who could afford to ray a high price for the wonderful work, which was called ths Encyclopaedia Britannica It is a university in itself, this work, for it neglects no branch of knowledge in which men are interested. .
