wiped out by combined earthquake

of the lumbermen against the proposed
increase of rates on the northern rail-

by Judges Hanford and Wolverton this

SIMPLE BLOOD CLEANER
Valuable Home Prescription
Which Takes Out Impurities
ovERcohEs ALL RHEUMATISM
Strengthens the Kidneys and Helps
Filter the Po,sons From
the Blood.

A leading health journal, in answer
ing the question. What is the best
prescription to clean and purify the
blood" prints in a recent issue the
following: Fluid Extract of Dande-
lion one-half ounce. Compound Kargon
one ounce. Compound Syrup Sarsapa-
rilla three ounces. Shake well and use
in teaspoonful doses after each meal
and at bedtime.
A well known local druggist who is
familiar with this prescription states
that 1t is harmless, being composed
of simple ingredients which can be
obtained from any good prescription
pharmacy.
1t cleans the blood of all i'm
purities and nourishes the blood.

debilitated men and women. For MANY
years Sarsaparilla alone has been con-
sidered good blood medicine But
while it built up and made new blood.
the impurities remained within and
the good accomplished was only tenn
pOrary. Sarsaparilla, however, when
used in combination with Compound
kargon and Extract Dandelion works
wonders. This combination puts the
kidneys to work to filter and sift out
the waste matter, uric acid and other
impurities that cause disease. 1t makes
new blood and relieves rheumatism
and lame back and bladder troubles.
This prescription is better than the
usual patent medicines, which are in
the most part alchOhnlic connections
The ingredients cost but little and
are easily mixed at home. Every man
and woman here should make some up
and try it if they feel their system re-
quires a good blood medicine and tonic
The KaragOn to clean the kidneys
and vitaliZe them so they can clean
the blood, Sarsaparilla to make new
rich blood and Dandeliop to tone the
stomach, clean the liver and make it
active and relieve constipation is the
way the prescription acts and so mild
