quote the words of one of the great
est men who ever lived.
"" Ye have been called to liberty,
but use not liberty, for an occasion
to the flesh,' that is not for our own
selfish ends, 'but in love serve one
another for all the law is fulfilled
in one word, 'thou shalt love thv
neighbor as thyself.' So let us keep
burning brightly and hoid high the
torch ( of love, and pass it on to our
children and our children's children.

The beautifully lighted community
tree in the yard added greatly to
the electrical decorations. Not only
were there present people from Alari
etta, but from surrounding cities and
towns.

j Suiibury. Pa.. Dec. 31,—Expecta
tions of tiie taxpayers of Nortlium
; berland county to see tlie eoul com
panies operating in the county pay
|an equitable share of the taxes were!
I dispelled here when the County j
Commissioners, acting as a board of]
Lrevlslon, dropped from the estimate!
jof $117,000,000, which they had
placed on tiie coal lands, and ac
cepted the figures proposed by the
coal companies amounting to a little
more than $24,000,000.
The action of the board came as
a surprise to those who had fol
lowed the course of events since
they undertook to make the com
panies pay in proportion to the value j
of their properties.
The motion to accept the figures
advanced by the companies was
made by Fred Dornsife, retiring
member of the board. It was sec
onded by John J. Roach, who was
re-elected a member of the new
I board. S. Harry McKtnney, relir-
I ing member, voted against the mo
| tion, but w'as overruled by the other
I two members.
! The $24,000,000 figure will stand
for three years. In 1922 the present
I board will have opportunity to again 1
' seek a more equitable figure. This
light has been in progress for more i
than 15 yeais, and bids fair to con
tinue until a Ju3t valuation is!
reached. 1

UN MAKES
IT IMPOSSIBLE
Imitation is Sot at Defiance by

Medicine.
• "Tanlac!" There is magic in its
name, which is to-day a household
word in this community, where its
fame is as widespread as the bright,
smiling sunshine.
"Tanlac is the result of scientific
research," said the Tanlac Man.
"its ingredients are gathered from
the remotest parts of the "earth anil
compounded by skilled chemists
even as mysteriously as famous
mineral waters are formed. The
science of man, competitive chemist
skill and acquired medical lore are
set at defiance in so far as imitation
is concerned.
"Tanlac, has and is now proving
invaluable in cases of stomach, liver
and kidney troubles, as well as ca
tarrh. As a general tonic and
stomachic for half-sick, run-down,
listless men and women, it builds up
the system, creates a healthy appe
tite, promotes digestion, vitalises the
blood, and brings back color to the
checks and the sparkle of health to
the eyes." The genuine J. I, Gove
