Must Have the Stamp.
The Spain War Revenue Stamp
Act, went into effect on the 1st.
Hay of July 1898 and the schedule
under said act, as to deeds, required
stamps to the value of fifty cents
for each #500 of the consideration
mentioned in the deed or the value
of the property conyeyed, to be
affixed and cancelled. Deeds in
which only a nominal considera?
tion is mentioned, the value of
the property is the basis for fixing
the amount of stain p. Deeds in
which the consideration or the
value of property conveyed is $100
or less il exempt from stamp tax.
On the 1st day of July 1001, the
above schedule was changed, ex?
empting from stamp tax all deeds
in which the consideration or value
of property conveyed is $2500.00 or
less and for every $500 in excess of
$2500.00, the stamp tax is 25cts,
and all deeds are exempt on and
after 1st day of July 1902. All
deeds executed during the time
the above act was in eff .ct. must be
stamped according to the above
schedule before they are recorded,
and all documentary stamps having
been withdrawn from sale the only
way deeds or other instruments
can be stamped is to send them to
the Internal Revenue Collector at
Alexandria with the amount to pay
for the necessary stamps, forward?
ing also an affidavit to the effect
that the failure to stamp the in
strument was not with intent to de?
fraud the U. S. Government, and
further, should you fail to present
instrument for post-stamping with?
in a year after the date of execution,
feel iu your pocket for a Ten Dol?
lar bill with which to pay the pen?
alty which will inevitably have to
be forthcoming.
A Cold Wave
The forecast of sudden changes
in the weather serves notice that a
hoarse yoice and a heavy cough
may invade the sanctity of health
in your own home. Cautious peo?
ple haye a bottle of Oue Minute
Cough Cure always at hand. E H
Wise, Madison, Ga., writes: ''I am
indebted to One Minute Cough
Cure for my present good health,
and probably my life." It cures
coughs, colds, lagrippe, bronchitis,
pneumonia and all throat and lung
troubles. One Minute Cough Cure
cuts the phlegm, draws out the in?
flammation, heals and soothes the
mucous membranes and strength?
ens the lungs. K H Trimble. M.D.

DECISION: NO JURISDICTION.
Judge Fuller and Judge Waddill
Go Against Wise.
Chief Justice Fuller this after?
noon refused to grant the writ of
injunction asked by John S. Wine
against the state board of canvas?
sers to prevent their canvassing the
ballots cast for congressmen. The
court took the ground that it had
no jurisdiction, saying "The pro?
ceeding is, in effect, against the
commonwealth, which is in any
view, an indispensible party, and
cannot be such, and the matter be?
ing political, cannot be dispcsed of
in such a proceeding."
Judge Waddill, who sat with the
chief justice, concurred as a legal
proposition, but expressed the opin?
ion that the laws are unjust in this
regard.
Mr Wise gave notice of appeal to
the supreme court of the Unite!
States.

"After my first baby was bom I did not
mm to regain my strength although the
doctor gave me a tonic which he consid?
ered very superior, hut instead ci getting
better I grew weaker every day. My hus
band insisted that 1 take Wine of Cardui
for a week and see what it w?uld do for
me. I did take the medicine end wa. very
grateful to find my strength and health
slowly returning. In two wc ,!:s I was out
of bed and In a month 1 was ebie to take
up my usual duties. I am very enlhush
astic in its praise."
Wine of Cardui reinforces theorgans
of generation for the ordeal of preg?
nancy and childbirth. It prevents mis?
carriage. No woman who takes \Y hie
of Cardui need fear the coming of her
child. If Mrs. Unrath had taken
Wine of Cardui before her baby carne
she would not have been weakened as
she was. lier rapid recovery should
commend this great remedy to every
expectant mother. Wine of Cardui
regulates the menstrual flow.
