VERY GOOD HOME
MADE CA7ARRH CURE
Anyone Can Prepare This Mixture
Which Is Said to Relieve
Catarrh.

The coming months will be a har-
vest for the doctors and patent med
ictne manufacturers unless great
care is taken to keep the feet dry,
also Ire warmly.
This advice should be needed by
all who are subject to rheumatism,
kidny and bladder troubles and-espe
cially catarrh. While the latter Is
considered by most sufferers an in
durable disease, there are few men
or women who will fail to experience
great relief from the following sim
pie home prescription, and if taken
in time it will prevent an attack OF
catarrh during the entire season.
Here is the prescription which
any n can mix: Fluid Extract
Dandelion one-half ounce, Com
pound Kargon one ounce, Compound
Syrup Ssrsaparilia three ounces
Shake well in a bottle and use in
teaspoonful doses after each meal
and again at bedtime.
The Compound Kargon in this
prescription acts directly upon the
eliminative tissues of the kidneys to
make them filter and strain from the
blood, the poison that produce all
kinds Of catarrhal affections. Re-
lief is often felt after the first few
doses and 1t is seldom that the suf-
ferer eve experiences a return at
tack within theh year.
This prescription makes a SPLEEN
did remedy for all forms of blood
disorders and such symptoms as
lame back, bladder weakness and
rheumatism pains are entirely dis
PEELED. 7
AS this valuable. though simple
recipe ONE from a thoroughly re-
liable source, it should be needed
by every afflicted reader.

BUY MEXICAN LAND.
Two Cottonwood Falls Women Pur-
chase 100000 Acres.

st. Joseph, Mo-, March 1S-The pur-
chase of two tracts containing in all
100000 acres of agricultu1 al, grazing
and mining lands, in Old Mexico, is the
latest stroke of enterprise by Misses
Helen Kimber and Nellie Howard, two
young women who achieved fame as
shrewd business women three years
ago, as land agents for the Union Pa
cff1c Railway company, when they ne
gotiated the sale of enormous tracts of
land in western Kansas and eastern
Colorado.
By the deal just consummated, Kim
Der & Howard, as the firm is styled, be-
come sole owners of what is reputed TO
be some of the richest land in Mexico.
1t is in two tracts, in the state OF
Sonora, one bordering on the coast OF
the gulf of California and including two
ports and the other extending for 81
miles along the boundary line of Ari
IONA. 1t is said that the purchase price
was $750,000. Ports Libertad and Labas
are said to be the best harbors on the
gulf coast, and they are both included
in the purchase.
Misses Kimber and Howard returned
to st. Joseph Saturday from a months
thorough inspection of their new hold
ings, and they are enthusiastic over the
country. Their time for the most part
was spent arranging for the sale of a
greater part of their land. in tracts of
SO, 900 acres.
Our original intention in purchasing
land in Mexico" said Miss Kimber,
was to secure an agricultural ranch,
so that, we could retire from the active
pursuit of real estate dealing and en-,
gage in farming on an extensive scale.
I'VE decided to buy tract of about
$50 900 acres, but when we went 10
Mexico found out that the particular
land we wanted could not be obtained
without taking the 100000, and as we
considered it a good investment we
closed the deal"
Misses Kimber and Howard started
out here from Cottonwood Falls, Kan,
several years ago, comparatively poor
girls, and from practical obscurity they
have won their way to distinction in
the business world. They are today
reputed to be the most extensive wo-
men land agents in the United States,
controlling valuable holdings in nearly
every part of North America. Notwith-
standing conspicuous success, both are
modest and unassuming, and at the
same time indefatigable workers ana
shrewd to the highest degree in bust
ness.

knows this is not true if he knows
anything about legislation at all. He

before the house, and pleaded with
both bodies to redeem party pledges.
He knows that to have asked the SEN

been folly 1 did the only thing 1

a bill which would have enabled the
people at a direct primary to elect

would have given them direct control

When Mr.. Stannard told the people OF

all my official actions, including my at
titude toward the state legislature,
that I am not and have not been DOM
mated by corporate or machine in
