Reidsville Ruviow. TUESDAYS AND FRIDAYS. REVIEW COMPANY (Incorpoiated) THE ONE DOLLAR PER YEAR REIDSVILLE, JUNE 21, 1907. TH E ACTIOS HASTY. There Ss a general and widespread belief among the taxpayers of Rock ingham county that the county com missioners made a very grave blunder in raising the tax rate 32c on the hun dred dollars to defray extra expenses incurred for building the new court house and for road and fchool purposes. It is argued, and correctly bo, we think, that the increase in property assess ments over the valuation four years ago will be a great deal and that the assessors are materially increasing the value of real estate all over the county. This ia certainly true in Reidsville township, where, we are reliably in formed, property values have been in creased for taxation fully 20 per cent The county is just beginning to take on new life, home-seekers are coming in looking aiound for desirable loca tions in our midst, the waste places are being developed and opened up, and the future gives promise of brighter things The commissioners are acting very unwisely in making any inciease in tax burdens that are not absolutely necessary. From a political standpoint it ia still more deplorable from the fact that these increased taxes will be in process of collection about the time the people are making up their minds as to who shall ml the various offices. A heavy increase of taxes during a pe riod of profund peace is sure to be re sented by the people and the Demo cratic party in this county will suffer unless the unwise action of the com missioners in increasing the tax levy is rescinded. It is the opinion of many well in formed people that the tax returns under the new assessment would be ample for the ordinary expenses of running the county and have a hand some sum left over to apply on the courthouse. This, too, without any increase in the tax rate. As the county has no bonded or floating indebtedness, there couk be no objection to tief ering the payu ent of three or four thousand dollars on the court house account for one or two years. We hope the commissioners will be moved by motives of party policy, if for no other, to rescind their unwise action in unnecesarily increasing the tax rate. Standing of the Contest In order to reward the efforts of club raisers we haye decided to offer a prem ium of extra votes to those who hustle a little and get up clubs. Until the end of the contest we make the following special offer for clubs: On every $3 sent in at one time on old or new subscriptions, in advance or on arrears, an extra card of 50 votes will be given. On $5 sent in at one time for old or new subecriptions, back dues or in advance, a card of 100 votes extra will be issued. On the $3-clubs a total of 110 votes will thus be issued and on each $5-club 200 votes are issued altogether. in Ruffi Ripples.

Now she is very happy again. This a true story, and shows the value o advertising in The Review. Willie Reidsville Firm Lists Big Properly for Sale. The Southern Realty Compiny, of which Mr. John D. Huffines is secretary, has listed the interest of the John H. Spark's heirs in the Vude Mecum property for sale. The property is to be Hold by the Administrator of the Sparks estate and consists of two-thirds intrerest in the Vade Mecum property proper which includes the two hotels, 20 cottages, livery stables, store house and stock of goods, the famous mineral npring, a milland abcut 800 acres of land, and mining and mineral rights of 400 additional, and the 1200 acres of land adjoining, which is owned outright by the Sparks' estate. Since the property has been placed wiih the Reidsville Agency for ale it has been extensively ad vertised, and as a result there are some parties expected down from he North within the next few weeks to exam ne it. The invest ment has been paying a good divi dend, and the sale is to be made because of the desire of the Admin istrator to the wind up Mr. Sparks' holdings in North Carolina, which requires more of his time than he can afford tD give it. George D. Hensley, a merchant at Schoolfield, a suburb of Danville, made a desperate attempt to commit suicide at his home Tuesday by drinking lauda num. Hensley has been on a drunken spree for the past several days, and drank the poison while his wife and children were looking on. He threat ened during the early part of the day to commit suicide, but his relatives thought that he was only joking. Mrs. Hensley wrested the bottle from the hands of her husband too late. The victim is in a critical condition, but may get well. He is about fifty years of age, and last Friday was fined for !runkeness and was put under a btnd for his future good behavior. Since that time ha has been brooding over his arraignment court in Miss Marguerite Penn is visiting her relatives in Danville. Y v- ,-:- :;V ...'; v: - . ,V .

If the skin would De broKen from any cause me flesh would become inflamea, would itch and burn and develop into sores. Helore the birth ot one or my chil dren, and several montls aftei wards, my who's body became fearfully swol len and I was in a serious condition geneially. My blood wa thin and watery. On one ocaasion about this time I broke the skin on one of my fin gers one Friday, while attending to my household work. On Monday my hand became fearfully red and inflamed, and my arm was affected to my shoul der. I was c infined to my bed several weeks. The hand that was hurt was in a fearful condition and we all feared lock-jaw. My hand became swollen and shed the skin and was as red and raw a? a Dipce of beef. Mv purTcrine was so intense I had -o be kept under ihe influence of morphine for about two weeks. My doctor carried me safe ly throughout that, but my hand is left drawn and my finger are out of shape and stiff so that I have but little use of them. And for vears my blood remained in that condition; every little scratch would give me trouble, many timrs of a serious nature. Mrs Joe Person came to see me and ' persuaded me to use her remedy. I bought a dozen bottles and IT CURED ME, though I took a great deal more. 1 I am to afraid of blood poison that I take a few bottles every spring t be on the safe side, and I never had any trouble. Last year my leg was badly bitten by a dog. which caused my fam ily and me great anxi ty, but it did not even inflame and gave me no trouble. My blood is in fine condition and I be lieve if it had not been for Mrs. Joe Person's Remedy I should have died. I couldn't have lived in the condition I was in much longer. 1 cannot express my feelingu in regard to it. Its value is priceless. Mrs. G. F.MEDLIN. Weldon, N. C, June 12, 1707.
