This Is Worth Saving.

The following simple homemade
mixture is said to relieve any form of
Rheumatism or backache, also
cleanse and strengthen the Kidneys
and Bladder, overcoming all urinary
disorders, If taken before the stage
of Bright's disease: Fluid Extract
Dandelion, one-half ounce; CON-
pound Kargon, one ounce; Compound
Syrup Sarsarparilla, three ounces.
Mix by shaking we'll in a bottle and
take in teaspoonful doses after meals
and at bedtime.
A we'll known authority states that
these ingredients are mainly of veg
etable extraction, and harmless to
use, and can be obtained at small
cost from any good prescription
pharmacy. Those who think they
have kidney trouble or suffer with
lame back or weak bladder or Rheu-
matlsm, should give this prescrip-
ton trial, as no harm can possibly
follow its use, and it is said to do
wonders for some people. 3

Mr.. Hubbard
Is For Swisher
CONGRESSMAN 50 EXPRESSES
HIMSELF TO a NEWSPAPER
MAN AT cLARKssuRe.

I CLARKsBURG, Feb. Congress
man w. p. Hubbard arrived in the city
Monday noon from washington to at
tend the meeting OF the Republican
congressional committee, and incident
ally look after his fences and feel the
political pulse of Harrison county. He
appeared to be enjoying the best of
health and showed that Washington
life agrees with him. He mingled
freely with the members of the com
mittee and was visited by many local
Republicans who desired to have their
ideas frightened and get a line on
politics.
The congressman is splendid
teacher and is in position to give
advice to his students. He fought the
battle when hope was against him and
knows what to do when either defeat
or victory overtakes him. His visit
was purely political and he made no
pretensions towards attending to any
other matters. He wanted to know
what was doing and what the people
In general think of him as their rep
resentative in the first house of our
national congress. He was the center
OF attraction. and around him gathered
the lesser lights eager to win his affec-
tons.
When approached about the guber-
Material race Mr.. Hubbard expressed
his desire to see Secretary swisher
win. He also felt confident that the
secretary would win without difficulty.
Mr.. Hubbard heartily agreed that
the committee did the wise thing in
dispensing with the convention and
nominate the congressional candidate
by the primary plan. as he believes
it will give every voter of the party
an opportunity to make choice. He
also believes that the move was nee
essary element towards bringing about
a general primary throughout the
State.
While here the congressman was a
very busy man. but found time to meet
his friends and do much work for
himself. He left last night for Wash
Ington. but expects to make frequent
trips through the district before the
primary is held.

Dragged And

YOUNG MoReANsvILLE MAN CIV
EN- BAD WHIsKEY AND HIS

cLARKsBURG. Feb. HERMAN
Yerkey, young man hailing from
Morgansville. became the victim of a
spasm last night while getting shaved
at BANDS barber shop. He was in
stantly removed to the clarksburg
sanitarium, where treatment was at
once administered and the physicians
pronounce his chances for recovery
very favorable.
Yerkey, as well as many others who
heard his story, believes that he was
drugged. He says that he came into
the city yesterday evening and while
on his way over from the depot took
three drinks, the last one In hotel
bar, where he fell in with a crowd Of
fellows, all drinking. During the time
he was there, he says there was some
discussion about a ticket to Parkers-
burg, where Yerkey had intended to
go on the next train. He claims that
he had 5000 on his person and that
he was robbed OF this while he was
under the influence Of the drug which
he thinks was administered him at the
bar. Such is the story he told at the
barber shop at the time Of the attack.
The spasm came on while he was In
the barber chair. 1t began by froth-
ing at the mouth followed by cries of
intense pain. The physicians at the
hospital say that when brought there
Yerkey's was not the condition usually
seen in a man who is simply drunk.

Nichols asserts that the running down

he was unable to hold his car because OF
the slippery condition OF the pavement,
and that he was driving at a reasonable

whether young Nichols will be compelled
