Newman, a licensed practicing physician of 286 Fifth Avenue, New York, who announces that he has per fected a treatment which has quickly rid fat people of excess weight. What Is more remark able Is the Doctor's statement that he has successfully .treated thousands of patients for fat re duction without chnngo of diet or unnecessary exercise. It ia also said that fat people who suf fer from chronic rheumatism, gout, asthma and high blood pres sure obtain great relief from the reduction of their superfluous flesh. Realizing that this sounds almost too good to be true, the Doctor has offered to send with out charge to anyone who will write him, a free trial treatment to prove his claims, as well as his "Pay-when-reduced" plan. If you want to rid yourself of super fluous fat, write him today, ad dressing Dr. R. Newman, ' 2S6 Fifth . Avenue, New York City, Dpt. R36. Adv.

Tarticularly is this expense disprop. ortioiiute to a tax paid by a small estate, which baa but a few shares of stock. In many case tiie expense alone niutit exceed the total value of the shares which it in sought to trans fer. Looking at it from the stsod point of state revenue, 1 nui told u 9 probable that the full cost of execu tors of ascertaining the tax and ob Uiiuing the necessary transfers is in the aggregate nearly as inticb as the tax received by the states upou this property uf non-resident dependents.

Tbis capital is not usually represented by cash or readily marketable securities, but it may be a business built up by the do cedent through bis lifetime, or prop erty long held, for which there ia no immediate market.

At the last few anuual meetings it the National Tax association, and at a recent conference of the tux com missioners of several states, tiie posi tion has been taken that the federal government should withdraw from the field of estate taxes. "TMq view hn miieh to eiui- eminent hns. entered this field only on tiie of'CHsi'ill of war emergency, and in every case, except the present, has withdrawn when the reason for ex ceptional taxation ceased. The emer gency created by the great war, when lost the federal government entered the field, has ended. The right to in herit property owes its existence, hot Thursday EhigjH, to on federal law, but to the law of the atate. Federal edtato taxa tion, therefore, has not the natural excuse which it conceded to utate In heritaoce taxation.
