NOW BEST
TIME TO TAKE
Directions to Prepare a Simple
Home Mixture
GIVES THE DOSE TO TAKE
Tells You How to Overcome
Rheumatism With Simple
Receipt

A %well-known authority on Rheu-
matism gives the following valuable,
though simple and harmless, prescrip-
ton, which any one can easily pre-
pare at home:
Fluid Extract Dandelion, one-half
ounce; Compound Kargon, one ounce;
Compound Syrup Sarsaprilla, three
ounces.
Mix by shaking we'll in a bottle, and
take a teaspoonful after each meal
and at bedtime.
He states that the ingredients can
be obtained from any good %prescrip-
ton pharmacy at small cost, and, be-
ing of vegetable extraction, are harm
less to take.
This pleasant mixture, if taken reg
ularly for a 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 ELECTS the information
that these drugs are harmless and can
be bought separately, or the druggists
here will mix the prescription for our
readers if asked to.
