similar way. Miss Florence Nightingale

FLEAS-Subscribe City How can
heas be driven from house?
Fleas abound particularly in the nests
of pigeons, swallows and barnyard
poultry, upon dogs. cats and rats, and
wherever 1t can and harboring places
in the abodes OF men. AS the flea must
have dirt and dust I'm which to conceal
it's eggs, cleanliness is regarded gener-
ally as guard against the presence OF
the pests, but In many localities and
seasons it seems to obtain herborage
in the cracks Of wood and to require
special measures Of determination. The
remedy is the use of strongly odorous
solutions with wormwood tea or that
OF the plant known as flea bane, or with
carbolic acid and water. These solu-
tions generally will drive the fieas
away.
LIAIITED-T. ]. NJ. City. Please ex-
plain what is meant by the word lin
ited' as applied to corporations and
banks.
The term is purely English one. but
is said to have been invented in France
and improved upon by English promot-
ers. America has adopted IT and ITS
use is spreading. 1t permits the sole
owner of a business or an institution
to admit his employees 10 an interest at
small cost and no inconveniences. and
1t secures each member of the associa-
ton or corporation from any liability
on behalf of debts contracted by other
mernbers or officers of the company
Limited liability corporations are those
in which the stock holders are liable
only for the amount of tla stock they
hold.

DRINK PLENTY OF
GOOD PURE
WATER
Natures Remedy For ALI
Diseases Especially Kid
ney Trouble.

"The people here do not drink
enough water to keep healthy" ex.
claimed well-knOwn aus hority. THE
numerous cases of stomach trouble,
kidney and bladder diseases and rheu-
matism are mainly due to the fact
that the drinking of water, natures
greatest medicine, has been neglected.
Stop loading your system with pat
,enL medicines and cure-alls, but get
on the water wagon. If you are really
sick, why, Of course, take the proper
medicines-4pla.n common vegetable
treatment, which will not chatter the
nerves or ruin the stomach"
When requested for such a prescrip-
ton for the cure of rheumatism and
kidney trouble the answer was: You
must make the kidneys do their work ];
they are the filters OF the blood.
They must be made to strain out of
the blood the waste matter and acids
that cause rheumatism; the urine
must be neutralized so it will no
longer be a source of irritation to the
bladder, and, most of all, you must
keep these acids from forming in the
stomach. This is the cause of stom-
ach trouble and poor digestion For
these conditions would suggest the
following prescription: Fluid Extract
Dandelion, one-haH ounce; Compound
Kargon, one ounce; Compound Syrup
Sarsaparilla, three ounces. Mix by
shaking well in bottle and take in
teaspoonful doses after each meal and
at bedtime, but don't forget the wa
ter. Drink plenty and often.
This valuable Information and sim
pie prescription should be posted UP In
