RECIPE FOR RHEUMATISM.
Directions to Prepare Simple, Yet Re-
markabIe Home Mixture.


There is SO much Rheumatism here in
our neigh borhood now that the following
advice by an eminent authority, who
writes for readers of large eastern daily
paper, will be highly appreciated by
those who suffer:
Get from any good pharmacy one-half
ounce Fluid Extract Dandelion, one
ounce Compound Kargon, three ounces
of Compound Syrup Sarsaparllla. Shake
these well in bottle and take in tea
spoonful doses after each meal and at
bedtime: also drink plenty of good water.
It is claimed that there are few victims
of this dread and torturous disease who
fail to find ready relief in this simple
homemade mixture, and in most cases a
permanent cure is the result.
This simple remedy is said to strength
en- and cleanse the eliminatlve tissues of
the Kidneys, so that they can filter and
strain from the blood and system the
poisons, acids and waste matter, which
cause not only rheumatism, but numer-
GUS other diseases Every man or woman
here who feels that their kidneys are not
healthy and active, or who suffer from
any urinary trouble whatever, should
not hesitate to make up this mixture, as
it is certain to do much good, and may
save you from much misery and suffer
ing after while.
Our home druggists say they will
either supply the ingredients or mix the
prescription ready to take If our readers
ask them.

birth. giving It what has been called
two heads or faces. created much at

said the deformity could be removed
without endangering the child's life.
The Blucheld Telegraph recently
printed a description of the child. as
follows:
THE face Of the natural head Is
not deformed in any way. and is real
ly one of exceptional beauty. The
face Of the extra head is opposed 90
the natural head like you'd take ia .
backs of two heads and place them
together. There is no appearance Of
bone or gristIe. and the extra head
seems TO be like bag Of water about
the size of "A head. There is 40 face
to the second head. but where the
face should be is naked of hair. AMI
IL seems like the shadows or prints
Of eyes can be seen where the eyes
should be. Prints Of ears where the
ears should be can also be seen. The
back and top Of the extra head are
covered with hair. which is just like
the hair on the natural head. and the
naked part is just the size and shape
of the natural head"

Riding an Ostrich.

81 don't believe the stories told
about the natives in Africa and Aus
tralia riding ostriches." said a Cal
ifornian who gives riding lessons in
an uptown riding academy. "and I
saw this pretty well tried on one oc-
casion in my state. A cowboy who
had vanquished every pony he ever
undertook To break in was induced
TO try an ostrich. After an hours
hard work he succeeded i'm mounting
the bird. which at first tried To shake
and roll him off, but these tactics. or
course, had no effect upon the cow
boy. Then, in spite of all the man
could do, the ostrich succeeded In
getting its head around and seizing
the rider by the calf of one leg. FL
nally the man, after much frantic
Kicking. got his leg free. He then
doubled his feet under him, and the
ostrich reached over his wings and got
n good, fast hold on the mans back
throwing him heavily to the ground
and trampling on him. II took thrae
of us tn chase the Infatuated ostrich
away, and we accomplished II bare v
in time to save the mans life. That's
