Asks Us to Print.

To relieve the worst forms of Rheuma-
tism, take teaspoonful of the following
mixture after each meal and at bedtime:
Fluid Extract Dandelion. one-half
ounce; Compound Kargon, one ounce;
Compound Syrup Sarsaparilla, three
ounces.
These harmless ingredients can be OBJ
tanned from our home druggists, and are
easily mixed by shaking them well in
bottle. Relief is generally felt from the
first few doses.
This prescription forces the clogged-up,
inactive kidneys to filter and strain from
the blood the poisonous waste matter
and uric acid which causes Rheumatism.
AS Rheumatism is not only the most
painful and torturous disease, but
dangerous to life, this simple recipe will
no doubt be greatly valued by many
sufferers here at home, who should at
once prepare the mixture to get this
relief.
1t is said that a person who would
take this prescription regularly, a dose
or two daily, or even few times week,
would never have serious Kidney or
| Urinary disorders or Rheumatism.
Cut this out and preserve it. Good
Rheumatism prescriptions which really
relieve are scarce, indeed, and when you
need it, you want it badly.

when to Feed Poultry Food.

There is a prevailing notion with a
certain class of poultrymen that it
doesn't pay to force laying fowls dur
ing the warm summer months-that
they will get along very well with or
binary food and what they can pick up
about the yards. That this opinion is
not shared by the most progressive
poultrymen is shown by the fact that
not long ago the manufacturers of

London Bakers In 1910.

In 1910 we find the following Bow
bakeresses accused Of selling halfpen-
ny loaves deficient in weight: Sara
Foting, Christina Terrice. Godiyeva
Foting, Matilda de Bolingtone. Chris
tina Prichet, Isabella SDerl!ng. Alice
Pegges, Johanna de Countebrlgge and
Isabella Pouveste. One wonders why
the husbands were not summoned. In
similar case in 1916. when Agnes
Fotings bread was seized, it was "ad-
Judged that her bread should be for
feIted and given to the prisoners in
Neugate because her husband did not
come to aEow (own) the bread" Are
We to assume that in the absence OF
the husbands the bread was merely
forfeited without the infection Of
fine? An indication Of the Importance
Of the breadmaking business is also
found in an enactment Of the reign OF
Henry III. to the effect that "every
cart Of BrembIe Brombley-by-Bow) OF
Stevenhethe (Stepney) that comes into
the city with bread shall pay each
day halfpenny.'-St. James Gazette

Queer Eurs.

This Is cat fur. said 1urrler.
1--WE use 1t for Innings. An excellent
lining cat fur makes too. Dogs, calves,
colts, coons, opossums, bats, rats-any
animal that wears fur. in fact, Is sala-
bic in the fur market. Bat hair IS
felted up with other stuff into an ino1-
tation skin. 1t is also used, believe,
In rope plating The dog, the coon
and the opossum yield fur that, prop
erly treated, makes very handsome
lining. Rat skins are employed in GER
tain delicate repairs, and they also
serve to form the thumbs Of cheap
gloves. 4 queer thing about the fur
business is that the furs must be taken
in the dead Of winter. The trapper
must work under the cruelest climatic
conditions. Only thus Is the fur at Its
best. The dresser on the other hand,
who could work best in cold weather,
must do all his work in the heat OF
summer or otherwise he would not be
able to keep up with the changing
fashions.
