attached to the pi,no on a rear brace

ufacturers as the best device ever in.
vented to protect the front Of piano,
the feature Of the protector attracting

Considerable counterfeit money is in
circulation in Denver and in cities close
to the capital. Several spurious half
dollars have reached Central City. These
can hardly be distinguished from the
genuine as the mold is about perfect and
the only way their worthlessness can be
detected is by the weight, being some
what lighter than the regular coin. They

A certain large Eastern publication. which has no use for the patent medt- cine business. tells it's readers of a number of simple and safe prescrip. tions that can be made at home. The following. however. for the cure of rheumatism and kidney aid bladder troubles receives the greatest praise. viz, Fluid Extract Handelion, one-half ounce: Compound Gkareou. one ounce; Compound Syrup sarsaparina, three ounces. These simple vegetable ingre- dients can be obtsined at any good prescription pharmacy at little cost and are mixed by shaking well in a bottle.
 The dose for adults Is a teaspoonful after each meal and at be 'time, drink {, ing a full tumblsrful of water after each dose. It is' further stated that this prescription is positive remedy 1 for kidney trouble and lame back, weak bladder and urinary difficulties. especially of the elderly people. and one of the best things to be nsed in rheumatic afiifetions relieving the aches and pains and reducing swell fngs in just a' short while. A we'll known local pnvsicfan states that the Compound Karpon in 1t does ] the work. IL Is the only drug known
 which acts directly upon the 'elimina- ! tive tissues of the Kidneys; cleanses I the spongelike organs and gives them power to sift and strain the poisonous ] waste matter and uric acid from the blood, which is the cause of rheuma- t, tism.

 ferer which would certainly be an act
