HOME MADE REMEDY
INEXPENSIVE AND EASILY PRE-.
PARED BY ANYONE.
Is Said to Promptly Relieve eackaehe
and Overcome Kidney Trouble and
Bladder Weakness Though Harm
less and Pleasant to Take.

What Will appear very interesting
TO many people here is the article
taken from a New York daily paper,
lated by noted authority, who claims
that he has found positive rem
edy to cure almost any case of back
ache or kidney or bladder derange-
ment, In the following simple prescrip-
ton, II taken before the stage OF
Bright's disease:
Fluid Extract Dandelion, one.half
ounce; Compound Kargon. one ounce !;
Compound Syrup Sarsaparilla, three
take in teaspoonful doses after each
meal and again at bedtime.
A well-known authority, when asked
regarding this prescription. stated
that the ingredients are all harmless,
and can be obtained at a small cost
from any good prescription pharmacy
or the mixture would be put up If
asked to do so. He further stated that
while this prescription is often pre-
scribed in rheumatic Affections with
splendid results, he could see no rea-
son why it would not be splendid
remedy for kidney and urinary trou-
bles and backache, as it has a peculiar
action upon the kidney structure,
cleansing these most important or
gans and helping them to sift and
filter from the blood the foul acids
and waste matter which cause sick
ness and suffering. Those who suffer
can make no mistake in giving it a
trial

A Point of View.

The new steamer City of -,
was laid up for repairs and one of the
rickety old-timers Of the line was sail
ing in her place. A passenger who
was somewhat irritated by the fact
remarked to another, an lrishman, by
the way: The City of - always
gets in at two in the morning and this
old tub never gets in before six"
The Irishman thought for a moment
and replied: It's all right. The dis
tance is just the same and we get a
longer sail for the money"

On Wit and Humor.

Man is the only animal that laughs
and weeps, for he is the only animal
that is struck with the difference be-
tween what things are and what they
ought to be. We weep at what
thwarts or exceeds our desires in seri-
Gus matters; we laugh at what only
disappoints our expectations in tritles.
We shed tears from sympathy with
real and necessary distress; as we
burst into laughter from want of SYM
pathy with that which is unreasonable
and unnecessary, the absurdity of
which provokes our spleen or mirth.

FEW PEOPLE AT BEACH

were few holiday pleasure seekers at
the park and not more than three or
four hundred braved the elements and

superintendent McLaren of Golden
Gate Park said that rather slow prog

tion of the park, left in such bad con-
dition by the refugees. He, has TWEEN
ty teams and $50 men at work rebuild
ing the pathways, repairing the drive
ways and resolving the grass, but says
the funds at his command for the pur-
pose are limited.
McLaren thinks the relief corporation
should heed the appeal of the Park
Commission for $4,000 to aid in re-
habilitating the citys big pleasure
ground McLaren says the money
would be used almost entirely to pay
wages of laborers and thinks that
would be a wise method of expending
the relief moneys.

lrrigation's Best Gift.

Not the assurance that it gives
against failure of the crops not the
increased yield that it brings: not ev-
en- the reclamation Of barren lands
to profitable agriculture, is the best
and greatest gift of Irrigation to Anne
RIGA. That gift is the wide demon
stratiol of the superior proitahleness
of the small farm; and acre Tor acre,
as compared with the big farm; AID
of the greater prosperity which comes
to every interest in the nation from
the multiplication of small farms as
compared with the holding of land by
individuals in large tracts.
Irrigation has practically unified
the sentiment of manufacturers, mer-
chants, n transportation agencies
in the support of the propaganda of
the small farm. The latter had its
advocates fifty years ago, and some
few isolated practical demonstrations;
but with the mass, even of intelligent
men, it remained nothing but a tneO-
ry. the business sympathies of the
manufacturer and merchant were Civ
en- to the man with the big farm, as
being a larger a better Gus
toner, a shipper of much freight.
