RHEUMATISM RECIPE.
Directions To Prepare Simple. Yet
Remarkable Home Mixture.


A well.known authority on Rheuma-
tism gives the following valuable,
though simple and harmless prescrip-
ton, which any one can easily prepare
at home:
Fluid Extract Dandelion, one. half
ounce; Compound Kargon, one ounce;
Compound Syrup Sarsaparilla, three
ounces.
Mix by shaking we'll in a bottle, and
take teaspoonful after each meal and
at bedtime.
He states that the ingredients can be
obtained from any good prescription
pharmacy at small cost, and, being of
vegetable extraction, are harmless to
take.
This pleasant mixture, if taken reg
ularly for few days, Is said to over
come almost any case of Rheumatism.
The pain and swelling, if any, dimin-
ishes with each dose, until permanent
results are obtained, and without in
juring the stomach. While there are
many so.called Rheumatism remedies,
patent medicines, ETC., some of which
do give relief, few really give perma-
nent results, and the above will, no
doubt, be greatly appreciated by many
sufferers here at this time.
Inquiry at the drug stores of this
neighborhood elicits the information
that these drugs are harmless and can be
bought separately, or the druggists here
will mix the prescription for our read
ers If asked to.

Senator futile Should be Reelected
From the Lansing Republican

From the, Lansing Republican.
That he did not always agree with
the governor is the only charge DEM
ocratic opponents of Senator futile
are able to make against him. Thus
far none of Mr.. Bryan's followers
appears to have noted the inconsis-
tency of berating Senator Tuttle on
this account and at the same time
going the limit with attacks on GOV.
Warner. If consistent, they would
be commencing Senator futile for
acting independently of the governor
whom Democracy would have the
voters believe an undesirable eXecu-
tive, but they are not consistent.
Reference is made to this matter,
however, solely for the purpose of
pointing out the only objection even
the Democrats have made to Senator
Tuttle's reelection. Even his oppo-
nents recognize that there is album
dant reason when he should be hon
ored with another term. Senator
Tuttle's honor and integrity none
dares question and his ability is
equally beyond dispute. He proved
it in the legislature and he proved it
as prosecuting attorney for Ingham
county, notably when he conducted
the proceedings in the state cases
growing out of the military board
scandal. His return to the senate
will ensure the people of the four
teenth district efficient and honest
representation in the upper house of
the state legislature at a session
which bids fair to be one of the most
important in the history of Michigan.
