Get from any prescription pharma- cy the following:
 Fluid Extract Dandelion, one-half ounce; Compound Kargon, one ounce; Compound Syrup Sarsaparilla, three ounces
 Shake well in Q bottle and take a teaspoonful dose after each meal and at bedtime.
 The above is considered by an emi- nent authority as the finest prescrip- tion ever written to relieve Backache, Kidney Trouble, Weak Bladder and all forms of Urinary difficulties. This mixture acts promptly on the elimi- native tissues of the Kidneys, en- abling them to filter and strain the uric acid and other waste matter from the blood which causes Rheumatism.
 Some persons who suffer with the afflictions may not feel inclined to place much confidence in this sim pie mixture, yet those who have tried it say the results are sim ply surprising, the relief being effect ed without the slightest injury to the stomach or other organs.
 Mix some and give it trial. It cer- tainly comes highly recommended. It is the prescription of an eminent au- thority, whose entire reputation, it is said, was established by it.

tient Recovered Weight, Strength

When the nervous system is broken
down from overwork, or whatever cause,
life loses its joys. Not only is the ner-
vous victim sufferer himself but he is
usually trial to the whole family.
Nervous breakdown is often gradual,
appearing at first to be merely an unu-
sual fretfulness. DIR. Williams Pink
Pills tone up the nerves in the most
direct way and not only cure minor
troubles but serious disorders as well.
Mr.. w. w. Munroe, of 16 Hazel Park,

These pills actually make new blood
and have cured such diseases as rheu-

Indigestion, nervous headache, neuralgia
and even partial paralysis and locomotor
ataxia. As tonic for the blood and
nerves they are unequalled.

der of the blood and nerves write for

Pills have accomplished in cases similar
to yours. Every testimonial used by
this company is carefully investigated
