rooms of the Commercial club last
night many subjects were considered,
resolution adopted and ways and
means for the more extensive adver-
tisements of the state, city and county,
discussed. Resolutions, cOmmendatory
of the numerous improvements made

MANY CASES HERE NON
THE DREAD DISEASE .RHEUMA-
TISM HAS MANY VICTIMS
SIMPLE REMEDY TO TAKE.
Home ade Treatment As Given BY
Local Druggist and You Can Mix
1t Yourself.
Homemade Treatment As Given BY

Thousands of men and women who
have felt the sting and torture of this
dread disease, which is no respecter
of age, persons, sex. color or rank.
will be interested to know that while
for many years rheumatism was con-
sidered an incurable disease, now it is
one of the easiest affections of the hui
man body to conquer. Medical
science has proven it not a distinct
disease in itself, but a symptom
caused by inactive kidneys. Rheuma-
tism is uric acid in the blood and other
waste products of the system, which
should be filtered and strained out in
the form of urine. The function of
the kidneys is to sift these polsons
and acids out and keep the blood clean
and pure. The kidneys, however are
of spongelike substance, the holes or
pores of which will sometimes, either
from overWork, cold or exposure, be-
come clogged and inactive, and failing
in their function of eliminating these
poisons from the blood, they remain in
the veins, decompose and settling
about the joints and muscles, cause the
untold suffering and pain of rheuma-
tism and backache, often producing
complications of bladder and urinary
disease, weakness, etc.
The following simple prescription is
said to relieve the worst cases of rheu-
matism because of its direct action
upon the blood and kidneys, re-
lieving too, the most severe forms OF
bladder and urinary troubles: Fluid
Extract Dandelion, onehaf ounce;
Compound Kargon, one ounce; Com
pound Syrup Sarsaparilla, three ounces
Mix by shaking we'll in bottle
and take in teaspoonful doses. after
each meal and at bed time. The in
gradients can be had from any good
prescrip ion pharmacy, and are abso-
lutely harmless and safe to use at any
time

SECRET WORKER.
The Plan Upon Which Coffee Operates.

Coffee is such a secret worker that it is not suspected as the cause of sickness or disease, but there is very sure way to find out the truth
 4 lady n.Memphis gives an interes' |. ing experience her husband had with coffee. II seems that he had been using it for some time and was an invalid. iN
 The physician in charge shrewdlyl suspected that coffee was the Worm at the root of the tree" and ordered it discontinued with instructions to use Postum regularly in its place
 The wife says: We found that was the true remedy for his stomach and heart trouble and We would have glad ly paid a hundred times the amount of the doctors charge when we found how wise his judgment was.
 The use of Postum instead of cof- fee was begun about a year ago, and it has made my husband strong, well man. He has gained thirty five pounds in that time and his stomach and heart trouble have all disappeared.
 The first time I prepared it I did not boil it long enough and he said there was something wrong with it. Sure enough it did taste very flat. but the next morning followed directions carefully. boiling it for fifteen minutes, and he remarked this is better than any of the old coffee
 We use Postum regularly and never tire of telling our friends of the bene fit We have received from leaving off coffee"
