This
Simple Treatment

Get your druggist to mix the fol-
lowing ingredients: One-half ounce
fluid extract Buchu, one ounce eof
compound fluid Balmwort and two
ounces of syrup Sarsaparilla COM
pound Shake well and take a tea
spoonful after each meal and one
when retiring. Drink plenty of water,
but little of any liquid at meal times.
The great urinary specialist, Gaut,
whose single fees range from $500 to
$1,000, acknowledges in his latest re-
ports that this simple mixture is most
reliable and will cure all but the most
complicated and aggravated kidney
and bladder affections and rheuma-
tism; therefore, it is we'll worth try
ing.
Putting under eyes, backache, head
ache and dizziness, burning of the
eyes, blurred vision, extreme nervous
ness and insomnia all indicate urinary
trouble. Many more symptoms could
be named, but the reader will surely
recognize them.

Angry Deputies
After Scalp of
Jim COffrOth
Gef Icy Mift and "R0uSf al
Arena; viii Attempt to
Revoke License

DUST because his hirelings refused to
office a few of San Mateo county,s clti-
zens, who temporarily were acting as
deputy sheriffs, through the gate at
the johnson -Ketchel battle, Promoter
Jim Coffroth has aroused their Ire ana
they are going to make an attempt 10
have his tight license revoked.
Joseph sglS Nash, aS% San San Mateos county
clerk, accompanied by Albert Law, ms
deputy; William Fitzpatrick and Har-
as sheriff's deputies, swooped down
upon the door and tried to hold up
their credentials and their fingers to
Breeze by" said Sullivan. "You
can't crush in here on no pain"
But we are deputies. Indignantly
replied the crowd in chorus.
TT don't make any difference If
you're the real Mccoy; you can't get
by without a ducket,' replied Sullivan.
Beat ii quick"
gang of the Coffroth strongarm men
Immediately laid violent hands on them
and treated them to what is popularity
known as the "roust-" They all vowed
vengeance and when the San Mateo SUI
pervisors meet this afternoon, Nash and
his friends will present a petition ask
ing that Coffroth's fight license be re-
voked.
To make the game even worse, Nash
and his friends declare that they tried
to give Sheriff Chatham the office that
they were in distress, but the sheriff
passed them up. The cynical ones are
cruel enough to say that the sheriff
was seated in choice box seat and did
not want to take any chances of losing
it. even to aid his friends.
1t is said that Heiner, one of the
members of the party, was badly
beaten by a mounted policeman. 1t is
also said that he is suffering great
pain, and fears that his shoulder is
broken.
Cofroth is popularity supposed to be
in one way or another pretty good to
San Mateo county officiais. Apparently
there are few not on his list.
