The question of who the Democrats
will nominate for president is no
nearer being settled than 1t was be-
fore the discussion Of the wisdom Of
nominating a southern man was first
preached The question Is one Of ex-
pediency and whether there is a prob
ability of more electoral votes being
counted for some other candidate than
Mr.. Bryan could secure. The Mem
phis Commercial.Appeal seems to hit
the nail on the head when It says, the
main question is Can Bryan be
elected" Col Alexander Troup, the
editor of the New Haven Union, and
the head OF Mr.. Bryan's literary bu'
reau has told the country that as mat
ters now exist MIR Bryan would be de-
feated, but that something may hap
pen before the convention meets to
change these conditions. This frank
ayowal of Col. Troup Is what has led
to the consideration Of other leaders
and Il e canvas of their ability to Sc,
cure the necessary electoral votes OF
the close and doubtful states. As the
national convention will he composed

How to Prepare Simple Mixture to

To relieve the worst forms Of Rheu-
matism, take a teaspoonful Of the fol-
lowing mixture after each meal and
at bedtime:
Fluid Extract DandelioH, One-half
ounce; Compound KargOn, one ounce
Compound Syrup Sarsaparilla, three
ounces.
These hsrmless Ingredients can be
obtained from our home druggists,
and are easily mixed by shaking them
well in bottle. Relief is generally
felt from the first few doses.
This prescription, states . well
known authority in a Cleveland morn'
ing paper, forces the 'clogged,nP, In
active kidneys TO filter and strain
from the blood the pOisous waste mat
ter and uric acid, which causes Rheu-

As Rheumatism is not only the
most painful and torturous disease,
but dangerous 10 life, this simple
recipe will no doubt be greatly valued
by mauy sufferers here at home, who
should at once prepare the mixture to
get this relief.
It is said that a person who would
take this prescription regularly, q
dose or two daily, or even few times
a week, wOald never have serious Kid
