RHEUMATISM RECIPE.

A well-known authority on Rheu
 matlsm gives the following valuable
 though simple and harmless, prescrip
 tion, which any one can easily prepar, 1t home:
 Fluid Extract Dandelion, one-hall ouneei Compound Kargon, one ounce Compound Syrup Sarsaparilla, three ounces.
 Mix by shaking we'll in bottle, and take a 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 ularly 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- turing 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 ieighborhood elicits the information that these drugs are harmless and can be bought separately, or the druggists here will mix the prescription for our readers if asked to.

iums, Superior Attractions.

iums, Superior Attractions.
| Six weeks from today Mineral Point
will be changed city. August 10 viii
be Thursday, one of the big days of tn,
Mineral Point Fair.
The officers tel, us that they are go
ing to exert every effort to make this
years fair about the best thing of its
kind that the state of Wisconsin has
ever seen.
To that end they have raised their
premiums in almost every class. Par
ticularly is this true Of the live stock
divisions. n
Visitors at last years fair will re-
member the splendid exhibit of stock
which swamped the society accommo-
dations. In recognition of this condi-
tion of affairs the fair management has
made extensive repairs that will insure
plenty of barn room. The secretary
has been receiving numerous inquiries
and every indication points to one of
the finest exhibits of blooded stock ever
brought together in the state.
AT a great expense the society has
been fortunate enough to secure Nicho-
las Chefalo and the 8onmors Arabian
Troupe for their special attractions.
Chefalo's act is said TO be the most
thrilling of its kind in the United
States. 1t is a combination of looping
the loop and flying the tlume. The
equipment for this big act alone re-
quires two cars. The Bonmors Arabian
Troupe are the best acrobats in the
business. Some of their acts are al
most incredible.
Hotly contested base ball games will
be held every day. Mr. Wilson who
officiated as umpire last year will have
the same position again this year. and
this insures real bail playing in every
game.
The race program is excellent. A
special inducement is held out to horse
men in the shape of $50 premium to
the horse breaking the track record of
2:l2.
Every citizen of Mineral Point should
commence to make plans for a great
week from Aug l7-20.

Observed But riot Celebrated.

Mineral Point did not celebrate but
her citizens showed due observance of
the nations anniversary of independ-
ence in various ways. A large number
of our young people tripped to neigh
boring towns, while the older element
remained at home and spent the day
socially in some form or other. OF
course the urchin was busy from morn
till night with the patriot-inspiring
firecracker.
That Mineral Point ought to celebrate
in creditable and impressive manner
next year is the general verdict of our
citizens at this time. The idea should
not be let to wane but kept constantly
in the foreground when agitating as tc
what is good for our city.

THE ILLS OF MAN.

Appendicitis and Gout Rampant Thou
sands Of Years Ago.
The injuries, disease and peculiari-
ties Of the people who lived In the val
ley Of the Nile from prehistoric until
early Christian times, period Of
over 5000 years, are shown in q
pathological collection on view at the
Royal College Of Surgeons, in London.
The collection was obtained during the
exploration Of fifty-seven cemeteries
in the area Of the Nile valley lying i'm
mediately south Of the pillars Of Ko-
nosso, which mark the frontier of an
Client Egypt. 49,.
The survey was carried out under
the direction Of Captain 81. G. Lyons
Of the Egyptian government. In one
grave were found the abdominal or
gans of woman so well preserved
that it was possible to say that she
suffered from appendicitis, which is
considered to be the earliest evidence
of this disease. Typical LESSONS of
govt were found in an early Christian
subject. ..ga
A pair of splints, with bandages,
were found on the forearms Of young
woman's body, both the forearms hav-
ing been broken just above the wrists.
The splints are almost identical With
those used at the present day.
