RHEUMATISM RECIPE
PREPARE SIMPLE HOMEMADE
MIXTURE YOURSELF.
Buy the Ingredients from Any Drug.
glst In Your Town and Shake,
Them In Bottle to
Mix This.

A well-known authority on Rheu-
matism gives the readers Of large
New York daily paper the following
valuable, yet simple and harmless
prescription, 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 well in bottle, and
take teaspoonful after each meal
and at bedtime.
He states that the ingredients can
be obtained from any good prescrip-
ton pharmacy at small cost, and, be-
ing vegetable extraction, are harm.
less to take.
This pleasant mixture, If taken reg
ularly for few days, is said to over
come almost any case of Rheumatism.
The pain and swelling. If any, dimin-
ishes with each dose, until permanent
results are obtained. and without in
juring the stomach. While there are
many so-called Rheumatism remedies,
patent medicines, etc., some of which
do give relief, few really give perma-
nent 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 elicits the information
that these drugs are harmless and can
be bought separately, or the druggists
will mix the prescription il asked to.

sary to use SO much starch that the
beauty and fineness of the fabric is
hidden behind a paste of varying

THE RICHNESS OF NEVADA

i~talists saw opportunities for enrich
ing themselves. An abundance Of
money was Forthcoming for any min
ing venture. Miners obta ned grub
stakes with ease, secured valuable
leases, were enabled to sell their best
ore for cash as soon as it was brought
from the surface or could sell their
claims outright for good prices if they
so desired. 1t vas possible also to
obtain the money for equipment and
development of any claims making
any sort of showing. Under these con
ditions, not always prevailing in new
l'striets, it is small wonder that re-
markable and rapid development has
AIKEN place throughout the districts
If southern Nevada. Moreover. the
claims themselves merited the work
done upon them, as has been shown by
the financial results. the most potent
factor in the success which has fol
owed the opening of the districts re-
ferred to.
The building of new railroads across
Nevada had already been projected
when these mines were discovered. but
he mining developments have caused
much more rapid construction of these
.oads and also the building from main
mes of others designed to furnish
transportation for the more important
amps. Only the richest of ore could
ear transportation where long wagon
,auls were necessary to reach the rail
oad line, but it is a matter of aston
shment that such large quantities OF
re were shipped under the cireum
tances. The nearest smelling works
hundreds of miles a-way-became
~vcrcrowded with ore from the new
lines. and thousands of tons of second
rade ores have been piled up on the
humps waiting for cheaper t%ransporta
ion or local reduction works. 1t

Nevada is at present attracting more
attention from the mining and specu-
lative public than any mining state
in the West, says the Goldfield Min
ing Review. This interest is based IN
prospective values, but there is no
doubt that some of the mines already
productive are making such a good
showing as to give confidence both IN
themselves and in others still in course
of development in the same camps
Moreover, while the present excite
ment has been brought about by the
developments in the newer camps OF
southern Nevada, it As also true that
many of the older camps known for
thirty or forty years have become the
seats of great activity.
Afr the working out of the great
and famous bonanzas of the Consoli-
dated California and Virginia mine
on the Comstock and the failure for
MANY years to find new ore bodies
of value on any of the mines of that
extensive lode, the mining public turn
ed it's attention elsewhere. 1t became
difficult to obtain capital for invest
ment in any of the mining districts,
no matter what prospective showing
was made. The annual bullion produc
ton of the state continued to decrease
until it became a small amount as
compared with the output in the palmy
laws Of the Comstock lode. The re-
vival of interest in the mining indus
try of the state may be said to date
from the discovery of ore at Tonopah
about five years ago. As developments
progressed at Tonopah it became ap-
parent that the camp bids fair to be
come as permanent as cid Virginia
City itself. 1t has taken strenuous
development and very large invest
ments to bring Tonopah to its present
position, but during the progress of
this work the swarms of prospectors
and miners attracted there spread ov-
er the adjoining region and discover
ed several other camps, some of Their
already overshadowing Tonopah in
point of productiveness.
As one after another of these new
districts were discovered and rich
bodies of ore were found, the mining
world began to realize the Importance
of the region under develop
ment. Both miners and investing cap

BAD EFFECT OF FAILURE AT
PITTsBURG.

New York. Dec. THE extreme ir-
regularity which has been the charac-
teristic stock market movement for
several days past, was more pro-
nounced than ever today. The general
downward tendency of the first hour
gave place to an aggressive upward
movement early in the second hour,
which was broader and more compre-
hensive than has yet appeared in the
market; but prices broke again at the
last ThsSe were selling orders dis
tributed during the first hour, the
source of which was so concentrated as
to give rise to fears that liquidation
was being renewed of a kind which
has been absent through all the later
portions of the rally in prices. An al
tentative conjecture was that the ag-
gressive professional party which has
been leading the weeks speculation had
taken profits on the rise, and was turn
ing TO the short side of the market. The
stocks connected with the copper indus
try were conspicuous in the depression
especially American Smelling. The
group was unfavOrably affected by the
passing of the dividend on the pre-
ferred stock Of the Unfted States Re

show the great effect of the large re-
ductiOn of the short interest effected
during the week. and the retirement of
which has been an important factor in
the weeks rise in prices.
The weakness of the copper stocks
persisted after the rally in the mar
ket, and affected the secondary reac-
ton and the later irregularity. The
show of strength seemed TO be based
on anticipation of the favorable show
ing of the bank statement, the publi-
cation OF which was withheld until
after the market closed, in accordance
with rule now made permanent. The
