Shake in a Bottle.

Now is the time when the doc
tor gets busy, and the patent
medicine manufacturers reap the
harvest, unless great care is
taken to dress warmly and keep
the feet dry. This is the advice
of an old eminent authority, who
says that Rheumatism and Kid
ney trouble weather is here, and
also tells what to do in case of
an attack.
Get from any good prescription
pharmacy one-half ounce Fluid
Extract Dandelion, one ounce
Compound Kargon, three ounces
Compound Syrup Sarsaparilla.
Mix by shaking in bottle and
take a teaspoonful after meals
and at bedtime.
Just try this simple homemade
mixture at the first sign of Rheu-
matism, or if your back aches or
you feel that the kidneys are not
acting just right. This is said to
be a splendid kidney regulator,
and almost certain remedy for all
forms of Rheumatism, which is
caused by uric acid in the blood,
which the kidneys fail to filter
out. Any one can easily prepare
this at home and at small cost.
Druggists in this town and vi
cinity, when shown the prescrip-
ton, stated that they can either
supply these ingredients, or. if
our readers prefer, they will COM
pound the mixture for them.
