MADE MEDICINE
FOR THE bl0GO

A leading journal in answering the
question. What is the best prescription
TO clean and purify the blood" prints In
a recent issue the following: Fluid Ex-
tract OF Dandelion one-half ounce Com
pound Kargon one ounce, Compound
Syrup sarsaparllla three ounces. Shake
we'll and use in teaspoonful doses after
each meal and at bedtime
A we'll known local druggist who Is ia
miliar with this prescription states that it
is harmless being composed OF vegeta-
BILE ingredients which can be obtained
from any good prescription pharmacy.
1t cleans the blood OF all impurities and
nourishes the blood In just few days
the skin begins to clear OF sores, bolls and
pimples. 1t puts vigor and energy into
rundown, debilitated men and women
For many years sarsaparilla alone has
been considered good blood medicine
But while IL built up and made new blood
the impurities remained within and the
good accomplished was only temporary
Sarsaparilla, however. when used in COM
bination with Compound kargon and Ex-
tract Dandeion works wonders. This COM
bination 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 alcoholic concocuons. The
ingredients cost but little. They may be
procured from any good pharmacist and
mixed at home. Every man and woman
here should make some up and try 1t IT,
they feel their system requires a good
blood medicine and tonic.
The Kargon to clear the kidneys and
vitalize them so they can clean the blood.
Sarsaparilla to make new rich blood and
Dandelion to tone the stomach, clean the
liver and make 1t active and relieve con-
stipation is the way the prescription acts
and so mildly and gently that one does

where she lies at her dock. a smouldering
hulk.
The fire broke out about l:3o o'clock
between decks In the forward end OF the
steamer. II was apparent almost from

close that the imperilled people leaped
TO her decks. Then the screams OF the
imprisoned coal passers were heard from

for them TO pass through. and they we're
compelled TO fall back into the smoke and
fire, where they burned TO death.
