Economical Commodore.

1t was the custom in the days Of
our old navy for the men to bring to
the mast all WORKOUT articles which
were to be inspected, handed in, and
exchanged for new. The drummer
had applied for so many drum-heads
that the commodore felt sure he was
being imposed upon, and one day set
himself to watch while the band was
playing. AS one rafting martial air
followed another, his anger increased
perceptibly. until he burst forth in
uncomfortable rage: There now,
confound you! | see why you use so
many drum-heads! Don't drum in the
middle of 1t all the time. Drum all
over that drum, ] tell you!"

mixture after each meal and at bedtim, :
Fluid extract dandelion one half
ounce compound Kargon one ounce; com
pour syrup sarsaparilla three ounces.
These harmless ingredients can be or
tanned from our home druggists, and are
easily mixed by shaking them well 10 a
bottle. Relief is generally fe. from the
first few doses.
This prescription, states a Wellknown
authority 10 a Cleveland morning paper,
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 dan.
gerous to life, this simple recipe will no
doubt be greatly valued by many suffer
ers here at home, who should at once
prepare the mixture to get this relief
1t is said that q person who would
take this prescription regularly dose
or two daily, or even few times week
would never have serious kidney or ur-
mary 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. Our druggists

ingredients or make the mixture ready to

The following officers were elected,

owing to the strike of the telegraphers.

Several subjects of interest to those

all grapes sold by the association were
sold as Lawton grapes. This was denied
by the manager, who stated that all
grapes were sold as from the Southern
Michigan Fruit association, and each or
der is filled from such loading station as
the manager thinks best, and is billed
from that station so that each station
gets credit for all grapes loaded there.

the forces that furnish payrolis. and
payrolls are in turn the forces that
serve to furnish the very bone and

be commended for the very broad and
liberal spirit it displayed the other
evening in the PRONUNCIATION OF its
license ordinance for the coming year,
when it graduated the license tax On
such industries. based on capital 10
vested and number Of persons EN-

has very properly arrived at the col :
