TELLS HOW TO MIX lit
to Prepare Simple, Yet Re.
mdPkdbie Home Mixtures.

A we'll known authority on Rheu.
matism gives the reader Of a large
New York daily paper the following
valuable, yet simply and harmless
prescription, which any one can easily
prepare at home.
Fluid Extract Dandelion, one half
ounce; Compound Kargon, one ounce
Compound Syrup Sarsaparilla, three
ounces.
Mix by shaking well in a bottle,
and take teaspoonful after each
meal and at bedtime.
He states that the ingredients can
obtained from any good prescription
pharmacy at small cost, and being of
vegetable extraction, are harmless to
take.
This pleasant mixture, if taken regu.
larly for few days, is said to over
come almost any case Of Rheumatism
The pain and swelling, if any, di
FINISHES with each dose until perma-
nent results are obtained, and with :
out injuring the stomach, While
there are many so-called Rheumatism
remedies, patent medicines etc, some
of which do give relief, few really
give permanent results, and the above
will no doubt be greatly appreciated
by many sufferers here at this time.
Inquiry at the drug stores of this
neighborhood ELECTS the information
that these drugs are harmless and
can be bought separately or the drug
gists here will mix the prescription
for our readers if asked to.

Dear Sir: The way to reckon the
costs together: he cost Of the paint
and the cost Of putting it on.
1t would save this-counry hundreds
Of million Of dollars year ; it would
save you aloneGf you happen to be a
victim) several dollars a year.
See how it works. 1t costs as much
to put-on one paint as another, don't
il!
Yes, if you use the same number Of
gallon.
Well, don't /!
No, you'll use twice as many gall.
ons Of adulterated paint as Of Devoe:

for putting it on.
