FEW HERE KNOW THIS.

When an eminent authority an
nouuced in the Scranton (pa.) Times
that he had found a new way to treat
that dread American disease, Rheuma-
tism. with Just common, everyday drugs
found in any drug store, the physicians
were slow indeed to attach much inn
portance to his claims. This was only
a few months ago. Today nearly every
newspaper in the country, even the met
ropolitan dailies. is announcing it and
the splendid results achieved. 1t is so
simple that any one can prepare 1t at
home at small cost, it is made up as
follows Get from any good prescription
pharmacy Fluid Extract Dandellon, one
half ounce; Compound kargon, one
ounce Compound Syrup Sarsaparilla,
three ounces. Mix by shaking in a
bottle aud take in teaspocnful doses aft
Ell each meal and at bedtime. These
are all simple ingredients, making an
absolutely harmless home remedy at
little cost.
Rheumatism, as ever. one knows, is
a symptom OF deranged kidneys. 1t is
a condition produced by the failure OF
the kidneys to properly filter or strain
from the blood the uric acid and other
matter which, if not eradicated, either
in the urine or through the skin pores
remains in the blood, decomposes and
forms about the joints and muscles,
causing the untold suffering and deform-
itv of rheumatism.
This prescription is said to be a
splendid healing, cleansing and invigor-
ating tonic to the kidneys, and gives
almost immediate relief in all forms OF
bladder and urinary troubles and back
ache. He also warns people in lead
ing New York paper against the dis
criminate use of many patent medicines

Letter to { N TrenhoIme.


Dear Sir: A new word has come into
use in paint; it is strong. Strong paint
is paint as strong as paint can be. Weak
paint is paint not so strong.
Ii one paint takes 10 gallons TO do a
job and another IL, the l0-gallon paint
is the stronger
Ii one paint wears 10 years, and an-
other }, the l0-year paint is the stronger.
The strongest paint is the one that
takes least gallons and wears longest.
But do such existences exist? Yes
and greater. Devoe is the strongest of
all. a job that takes 10 gallons Devoe
takes more than 30 of some. And job
of Devoe wears several times as long as
a job of some paints.
o F. Perry, East Sth st. Erie, Pa,
painted two houses same size; same
time: with two paints same price; took
3 gallons Devoe to of the other; and in
three years Devoe was the better looking
job.
There are strong and weak paints 4:
we all want the strongest; paint can't
be too strong.
