The finest contour of a female face, the sweetest smile of a female mouth ioses something if the head is crowned with scant hair. Scant and falling hair, it is now known, is caused by a parasite that burrows into the scalg to the root of the hair, where it saps the vitality. The lit- tie white scales the germ thfows up in burrowing are called dandruff. To cure dandruff permanently, then, and to sto falling hair, that germ must be killed. Newbro's Herpicide, an entirely new re- sult of the chemical laboratory, destroys the dandruff germ, and, of course, stops the falling hair and prevents baidness.

Higher Valuation Would Put | $1,200,000 More in the City Treasury. A number of large property owners were in consultation yesterday with As- sessor Dodge for the purpose of taking steps to have the arbitrary ralse of the | assessed valuation by the State Board of Fqualization set aside by the Federal | courts. The plan as agreed upon con-| templates the institution of mandamus | board with the object of showing that! the raise was unwarranted and that the | assessed valuation as flxed by Assessor Dodge should stand. As ground for the action a parallel case was cited in the State of Illinols, wher on application of the railroad the Fed- eral courts intervened and reviewed the assessment as made by the State Board of Equalization, which raised the assess- | ment to a valuation of 100 cents upon the | stocks and bonds of the corporations. The Federal courts thereupon fixed the assessment far in excess of what the railroads had paid taxes upon in the past, but still at a lesser amount than the | Board of Equalization had ralsed it to.| The suit will be instituted at once by some property owner yet to be decided upon. “The principle involved,” sald Assessor Dodge, “is that the constitution guaran- | tees that property cannot be confiscated without due process. of law. In other words, the taking away of property un- der the guise of taxation is unconstitu- tional.” AFFECTS STATE TAX ONLY. Assessor Dodge also consulted with City Attorney Lane and both officials agreed that the raise of the State Board of| Equalization, should it stand, will affect the State tax only and the city rate will | be based on the lower valuation as re- turned by Assessor Dodge. Dodge and Secretary Colgan of the State Board of Equalization agreed that:such would be the case. Dodge's valuation was $427,- | 641,648, which was raised by the Board of Equalization to $545,855,324. Should the increased valuation be ac- cepted for both city and State purposes it will mean the collection of additional | taxes on $118,213,676, the amount of the increase, which at $1.076 on the $100 as- ssed valuation will result in putting about $1,200,000 in the city treasury, for which absolutely no provision was made in the budget adopted last June by the Board of Supervisors. From investigations so far pursued by Auditor Baehr that official is of the opin- | fon, however, that but one valuation should be entered on the assessment roll. Baehr points to a Supreme Court | decision in the case of E. J. Baldwin against the Tax Collector of Los Angeles County to recover illégal taxes, which rect that the State Board of Equalization power to increase | or lower the assessment roll of a county | so as to affect taxes for county purposes, | and further, that the manifest intention | of the law is that when the State board raised the total value of the assessment | roll of Los Angeles County it was done | for all taxable purposes as well for coun- ty as for State. DODGE QUOTES LAW. Assessor Dodge, however, points to the | constitutional amendment adopted since the issuance of the decision referred to, which gives to San Francisco the right | to regulate its own municipal | @ affairs. | Dodge 1s corroborated in this view by City ADVERTISEMENTS.

The charter requires that the city rate be adopted on the last Monday in June. The State law provides that tie levy for city and State purposes shall be made on the third Monday in September. If the latter course were followed the city would fix the rate so that no more money than is required for the expenses | of the city government could be collected in taxes ¥ If the Board of Supervisors in declaring the combined city and State rates on the third Monday of September to comply with the State law has the power to s reduce the rate of $1.076 that only the ap- propriation in the budget will be collected on the increased valuation then one val- uation could be used. This is another | point for legal interpretation by the City Attorney, that is, as to whether the rate | can be reduced so as not to compel prop- | erty owners to pay in $1,200,000 to the city treasury which the city never intended | should be done. ——e— DISTRIBUTE PRIZES TO MANY CLEVER MARKSMEN | Members of San Francisco Grutli Verein Receive Honors at So- cial Gathering.
