HOME MADE MIXTURE
SAID TO BE INEXPENSIVE AND EASILY
PREPARED BY ANYONE.
Is Said to Promptly Relieve Backache and
Overcome Kidney Trouble and BIsd-
der Weakness Though Harmless
and Pleasant to Take.

What will appear very interesting 10
many people here is the article taken
from New York daily paper, giving a
simple prescription, as formulated by a
noted au hority, who claims that he
has found a positive remedy to cure
almost any case of backache or kidney
or bladder arrangement, in the follow
ing simple prescription, if taken before
the stage of Bright's disease:
Fluid Extract Dandelion, one-hslf
ounce; Compound Kargon, one ounce
Compound Syrup Sarsaparills, three
ounces. Shake we'll in a bottle and
take in teaspoonful doses after each
meal and again at bedtime.
A we'll known authority, when asked
regarding this prescription, stated that
the ingredients are all harmless, and
can be obtained at 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 prescribed in rheu-
matte Affections with splendid results,
he could see no reason why it would
not be splendid remedy for kidney
and urinary troubles and backsche, as
it has peculiar action upon the kid
ney structure, cleansing these most i'm
pcrtant organs and helping them TO sift
and filter from the blood the foul scids
and waste matter which cause sickness
and suffering. Those who suffer car
make no mistake in giving it trial.

New York, Nov. 5.-Financiers Of
New York hold opposing views regard
ing the suggestion that President
Roosevelt call an extra session OF con-
gress at once to provide for currency re-
forms. Half dozen members Of cor
gress, men prominent in the house, op-
pose it. The fnanciers who oppose a
special session Of congress generally
favor currency reform, but they hold
that the regular session of congress is
so near that the subject can be consid-
cred then.
Leslie M. Shaw, president of the
Carnegie Trust company and former
secretary Of the treasury, is one of those
who favor immediate action. He says
if congress had acted last winter the
crisis through which we are now pass
ing would not have happened.
"Wise legislation, he said, "cannot
be passed too quickly"
E. H. Hartman, James Stillmsn and
Henry Clews are against the idea. Mr..
Hartman said:
"No extra session can help existing
conditions. What we need is rest and
quiet, and the opportunity for things
to become normal"
James Stillman, president of the Ma
tional City bank, said:
"We should have more currency.
Financiers have known this for years.
| have worked for it, but when it comes
to adopting legislation we must go
slowly. So far as present conditions
are concerned, all that is needed is for
the press to keep on reassuring the
public that there is no occasion for APP
prehension. Values are absolutely
fixed, but, of course, we cannot have
money with which to do business ii the
people hoard it away. There is no
danger, and the people should under
stand this"
Henry Clews said:
"No harm will be done by waiting
for the regular session. The present
difficulty will gradually pass away, day
by day. We are already over the worst
of it. There's no longer any sting OF
panic. AS soon as congress does meet,
it will be for the president then to pres
ent his views on the situation to them
and start them on their work"
Among the congressman interviewed
on the subject, and all of whom ex-
pressed opposition to the id "a OF calling
special session to consider the matter,
were Charles N. Fowler, chairman Of
the house committee on banking and
currency; W. P. Hepburn, chairman o.
the interstate and foreign commerce
committee; John Dalzsll, Jos. Ii
Gaines and W. G. Calderhead.
