NEW YORK, Dec. 10 - The atmcs-

the tone of the dealings became dull

MIX THIS AT HOME
Valuable Prescription Which Anyone
Can Easily Prepare.

The following simple home made
mixture is asid to readily relieve and
overcome any form of rheumatism
by forcing the kidneys to filter from
acid and poisonous waste matter, re-
lieving at once such symptoms as
backache, weak kidneys and bladder
and blood diseases.
Try it, as it doesn't cost much to
make, and is said ito be absolutely
harmless to the stomach.
Get the following harmless ingredi-
ents from any good pharmacy: Fluid
Extract Dandelion, one-half ounce
Compond Kargon, one ounce; Com
pound Syrup of Sarsaparilla, three
ounces. Mix by shaking we'll in a
bottle, and take a teaspoonful after
each meal and agin at bedtime.
This simple mixture is said to give
prompt relief, and there are very few
cases of rheumatism and kidney
troubles it will fail to cure perma-
nently.
These are all harmless, everyday
drugs, and your druggist should keep
them in the prescription department;
if not, have him order them from the
wholesale drug houses for you, rath-
er than fail to use this, if you are
afflicted.

NEVER HAD TIME

There was an old fellow who never
had time
For fresh morning look at the Vol
ume Sublime;
Who never had time for the soft hand
of PRAYER
To smooth out the wrinkles of labor
care,
Who could not find time for that SER
vice SO sweet
At the altar of home where the dear
ones all meet,
And never found time with the peo-
pie of God,
To learn the good way that the faith
ers have trod;
But he found time to die,
0, yes!
He found time to die
This busy old fellow, too busy was
he
To linger at breakfast, too busy was
he
For the merry small chatter of chill
dren and wife,
But led IN his marriage bachelor
life;
Too busy for kisses, too busy for
play,
No time to be loving. no time to be
gay:
No time to replenish his vanishing
health;
No time to enjoy his swift-gathering
wealth;
But he found time to die,
0, yes!
He found time to die
This beautiful world had no beauty
for him;
Its colors were black and its sunshine
was dim.
No leisure for woodland, for river OF
hill,
No time in his FIFE just to think and
be still;

what they saw They instantly Crap
pied with the fellow, but he put up
an ugly fight, and was assisted by a
fierce shepherd dog, which has al
ways been his companion Greenlee
fought like tiger, and the dog was
eqoally fierce; it snapped at the
struggling men who were trying to
overpower Greenlee. 1t required the
efforts Of two or three to keep off the
snarling dog while the others pinion-
ed Greenlee All the time the battle
was in progress Greenlee kept call
ing upon his dog to assist him, and
the brute appeared to understano
him. Finally the dog was kicked off,
and the still struggling man was
dragged into custody followed by
huge crowd.
Greenlee is degenerate who has
been proving the streets at all
hours. He wears usually only long
ulster. The capture of the fellow
will cause general rejoicir~ among
the people of Bloomington.
