RHEU MA T|SM RECIPE
PREPARE THIS SIMPLE HOME.
MADE MIXTURE YOURSELF.
Buy the ingredients From Any Drug
qst in Your Town and Shake
Them in a Bottle to Mix

A well-known authority on Rheuma-
tism gives the readers of large New
York daily paper the following valu-
able, yet simple and harmless prescrip-
ton, 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 we'll in bottle, and
take teaspoonful after each meal and
at bedtime.
He states that the ingredients can be
obtained from any good prescription
| pharmacy at small cost, and, being a
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. d-
minishes with each dose, until perman-
ent results are obtained, and without
| injuring the stomach. While there are
many so-called Rheumatism remedies,
patent medicines, etc, some of whic'
do give relief, few really give perman-
ent results, and the above will, no
doubt, be greatly appreciated by many
sufferers here at this time
Inquiry at the drug stores of even
the small towns ELECTS the information
that these drugs are harmless and can
be bought separately or the druggists
will mix the prescription if asked to.

Louisville, KY, Nov. 12.-Henry
Wattersons friends are urging him as

for the United States senate.
That there is a strong sentiment
among the Kentucky democrats to
knife Beckham there is no doubt. Many
hold him responsible for the party's
defeat at the last election. His treat
ment of Watterson is declared by poll
ticians to have cost the democratic
ticket 10000 votes.
Though a republican governor was
elected the Legislature remains demo

MEETING
LARGE GATHERING IN
SPOKANE, SUNDAY.
BANKING SITUATION REVIEWED
AND EVERYTHING DONE FOR
FUTURE STABILITY.

Al the Inland Empire bankers con
vention at Spokane Sunday to discuss
the general financial situation and its
special relation to the movement of
the vast wheat crop, general con
hdence was expressed by the 161 rep
resentatives of the banks of eastern
Washington, Idaho and Montana who
were present in the ability of their in
stitution to meet the situation.
AT the conclusion of the conference
the following statement was given out
by L. 7. Conan, vice president of the
Exchange National bank, and d. w.
Twohy, president of the Old National
bank, both of Spokane who represent
ed the special committee chosen to re
port on the situation:
The banking situation throughout
the Inland Empire was thoroughly dis
cussed for more than two hours in
the general assembly. The visiting
bankers then unanimously decided to
appoint a committee composed of one
member from each county and district
in the Inland Empire to meet with the
Spokane Clearing House association
and determine what, if any, action
should be taken This committee and
the Clearing House association gave
the matter careful consideration and
decided that the situation is as salts
factory as could possibly be expected
and did not, at this time, call for any
essential departure from existing
banking methods.
we find that the situation among
the country bankers is very satisfac-
tory, all of them having large amounts
OF loans secured by merchandise.
wheat and lumber in transit. AS soon
as the currency situation is sufficient
ly relieved the worst of the difficulties
will be over.
I'VE find that the only way to ac-
cumulate credit balances in the prin-
cipal exchange centers is by the con-
version of commodities into cash. To
accomplish this on a large scale will
require several weeks and perhaps
months on account of the present linn
tied facilities for transportation
This desired movement of crops
will be greatly aided by the action of
the state railroad commission, which
will endeavor to arrange with the rail
roads for the most prompt shipment
of grain to fill the ships which are at
tidewater awaiting cargoes J. c. Law
renee, state railroad commissioner, ad-
vised the assembled bankers that
such an effort is now being made.
The situation all over eastern Wash
ington and northern Idaho is improv-
ing and it is only a question of time
until there will be gradual liquida-
ton of the obligations due the banks,
when they will be enabled to again
resume business under normal condi-
lions.
THE country banks seem well sup
piled with cash resources and the only
difficulty they have had was in con-
yerting grain bills into credits with
| the Coast cities. From reports made
to the meetings this difficulty will
soon be removed and they will be able
to secure such credit"
