TELLS HOW 70 MIX /.
Directions 10 Prepare a Simple Home
Mixture
GIVES THE Dose TO TAKE
Tells You How TO Overcome Rhematlsm
With Simple Recipe, which Is
Easily Mixed.

A well-known authority on Rheu-
matisin gives the following valuable,
though simple and harmless, prescrip-
ton, which any one can easily prepare
at home:
Fluid EN Dandelion, one-half ounce;
Compound Kargon, one ounce; Com
pound Syrup Sarsaparilla, three ounces.
Mix by shaking we'll in 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
ularily 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
boughc separately, or the druggists here
will mix the prescription for our readers
if asked TO.

jority. The headlines of the
morning papers Indicate a COM
plete landslide for the Repabli-
can candidate. The solid South
stands as always for Mr.. Bryan

of those considered doubtful went
for MIR. Taft by SAFE majorities,
giving him most probably 800
electoral votes to III for Mr..
Bryan, Returns show Republi-
can gains in the South. The
states Of Missouri and Kentucky
which were considered doubtful
went Democratic by considerable.
The debatable states and those
in which the greatest fight was
urged, viz: New York, Ohio and
Indiana are Republican by large
majOTities, though the votes in
the West show great gains for Nj,
Bryan especially in Nebraska
where both candidates ran close
together and Mr.. Bryan carried
his own precinct for the first time

ed by 800 plurality, MIR. Jones
is elected of course and though
his majority hos not been learned
