Drink Plenty Water
NATURES GREAT REMEDY FOR
STOMACH, KIDNEYS AND
BLADDER.
Valuable Prescription which Anyone
Can Prepare at Small Cost.

The people here do not drink
enough water to keep healthy" OK
claimed a well known physician. The
numerous cases of stomach trouble,
kidney and bladder disease and rheu-
matism are mainly due to the fact that
the drinking of water, natures great
est medicine. has been neglected.
Stop loading your system with pat
ont medicines and cure-alls; but get
on the water wagon. If you are real
ly sick, why. of course. take the prop
err medicines-plain common vegetable
treatment, which will not shatter the
nerves or ruin the stomach"
When requested for such a prescrip-
ton for the cure of rheumatism and
kidney trouble the answer was: You
must make the kidneys do their work:
they are the filterers of the blood
They must be made to strain out of
the blood the waste matter and acids
that cause rheuma tism; the urine mus;
be neutralized so 1t will no longer he
q source of Irritation to the bladder
and. most Of all, you must keep these
acids from forming in the stomach.
This Is the cause of stomach troubles
and poor digestion. For these condi-
tions I would suggest the following
prescription, which Is composed OF
only vegetable ingredients, which can
be obtained from any good prescrip-
tIon pharmacy. Any one can mix
them by shaking well In bottle
| Fluid Extract Dandeiion, one-half
ounce: Compound Kargon. one ounce;
Compound Syrup Sarsaparilla. three
ounces. To be taken in teaspoonful
doses after each meal and at bedtime,
but don't forget the water. Drink
plenty and often" This valuable In
formation and simple prescription
should be posted UP in each household
and used at the first sign of an at
tack of rheumatism, backache or uri-
nary trouble. no matter how slight.

A Selma Raised Horse

Citizens of Selma will watch with
interest this summer the work which
will be done by Ward, the 3-year- o4d
horse. which has been trained at the
Selma Driving Park during the past
winter by Ben Renick. Ward with
the Renick and Mcdonald stables left
this afternoon for Indianapolis where
the horses will receive the finishing
touches to their training before the
opening of the races in the Grand
Circuit.
Ward was raised in Selma by w.
l. Ward. who later sold him TO Mr..
Renick. He has been entered in the
principal events in the meetings OF
the Grand Circuit and will be an ac-
tive contestant for the $4,000 purse
of the Merchants and Manufacturers
at tho Detroit meetin~ Though he
is without a mark korsemen believe
he will capture that race from all OF
Inc other entries as he has SHOWN
wonderful speed during the two years
he has been receiving his training
That Ward has re 'tVed the atten-
ton Of lovers of race horses is evil
denced by the fact that Mr.. kenIck
has already been offered $1,000 for
him. This offer was refused as his
owner believes he Will command a
better price after he has begun his
first campaign among the fastest
horses IN the harness racing word.

Meagre particulars of a difficulty

were learned here today.
1t seems that one of the farm hands
came to work several hours late yes
terday morning and that he was up
braided by r. L. Watson. the over
seer.
The negro answered the white man
impudentiy and In most insolent
manner and several blows were pass
ed when the negro succeeded in get
tim Watson on the ground and was
trying to gouge his eyes out. While
the negro was on top of him the white
man reached under him with one of
his hands and succeeded in pulling his
pistol from his hip pocket. After
getting out his pistol Watson shot as
quickly as he could and the ball
passed through the Negroes left arm.
but this dad not stop him from trying
to put out the eyes of the white man.
Watson then placed the pistol against
the Negroes stomach and fired a sec
ond time. Even after he had bee n
mortalIy wounded two or three of the
farm hands found 1t difficult to take
the w0undeA negro off Watson.
The wound which the negro re-
ceiyed in the abdomen is said to be
fatal and although he was alive last
night mis- death Is sbelieved to be only
a matter of a few hours. Whether
Watson was arrested or the name of
the negro could not BIO learned here
