EASY TO MIX THIS.
Simple Recipe for Kidney or
Bladder Trouble or
Rheumatism.

What will appear very interesting
to many people here is the article
taken from a New York daily paper,
giving a simple prescription, which
is said to he a positive remedy for
backache or kidney or bladder de-
rangement, if taken before the stage
Of Bright's disease.
Fluid extract of Dandelion, one
half ounce; Compound Cargon, one
ounce; Compound Syrup Sarsaparilla,
three ounces. Shake we'll in bottle
and take in teaspoonful doses after
each meal and again at bedtime.
A well known druggist here at
home. when asked regarding this
prescription, stated that the ingredi.
ents are all harmless, and can be OBJ
tanned at small cost from any good
prescription pharmacy, or the mix
ture would be put up if asked to do
so. he further stated that While
this prescription is often prescribed
in rheumatic Affections with splen-
did results, he could not see why it
would not be a splendid remedy for
kidney ard urinary troubles and
backache as it has a peculiar action
upon the kidney structure, cleansing
these most important organs and
helping them to sift and filter from
the blood the foul acids and waste
matter which causes sickness and
suffering. Those of our readers who
suffer can make no mistake in Civ
ing it trial.

RADIUM SURPASSED
Substitute Is All Powerful,
Harmless and Within the
Reach of Every One.

Chicago, Mar 4.-Tho rad-X held a
recp ion in the office of Drs. E. Still
man Bailey and F. H. Blackmar.
Tho rad,X is saffron kind of rock
which is destined to attract the at
tention Of physicians in all parts of
the civilized world.
Il isn't much to look at, this
coated yellow substance seemingly
half rock and half sand, but through
it the medical world may be revolt
utionized, for by its rise. combined
with other chemicals, Dr. Bailey
and DR.. Blackmar have perfected a
8 Institute for radium that is fully
as effective, far more adapted to
practical purposes and costs so little
t lat it will be within the reach of
every man.
DR.. Bailey is still in the south,
where he made his discovery known.
Physicians crowded the offices all
day. 1t is called Thc-rad-X by DR..
Ba; ey and his colleague, and although
DR.. Blackmar declined to tell of
what it is made he admitted that
pitchblende and the yellow substance
which is now on exhibition at his
Office played an important part in
the manufacture. The yeIlowish
rock which has made the manufac-
ture of Tho.rad-X possible is said by
DR.. Biackmar to be mined.
1--WE are just beginning" remark,
ed the physician. "A little later we
may have something to tell that will
cause-surprise, but just now we pre-
fer to wait. ~
This yellow rock, Of which there
is large abundance, makes the man
ufacture of the new substance, Tho.
rad-X, possible, although it is com
bined with other materials. The cost
of manufacture will be small and we
will be able to place the Tho-rad-X
on the market at a reasonable figure.
TESTS have shown it to be the
equal of radium in all respects, and
| it is absolutely safe. Its action may
not be as rapid as radium, but it is
Just as sure and does not burn"
A marked feature of the new dis
covery is that pads filed viii Tho.
rad-X are to be manufactured. and
may be worn by persons suffering
cancer, locomotor ataxia, rheuma
tism and neurotic troubles. So in
tense is the action of the Tho rad-X
that a preparation may be applied
over a heavy bandage and yet the
patient will feel its full strength.

May FESTIVAL
In Louisville Will Be Held
From 9th to 9th.

The second biennial May Music
Festival, to be held in Louisville
May G, and 8 at the First Regiment
Armory, will give to the South the
greatest musical event which it has
ever enjoyed. A greater number Of
artists of international fame has
been engaged than ever before, and
the scope of the festival is of larger
magnitude than anything hitherto.
undertaken. 1t has been announced,
nevertheless, that prices for the fes-
tival will be lower than before, so
that the attendance is expected to
break records.
The attractions are impressive;
Walter Damrosch has been re-en-
gagged and will come to Louisville
with his full New York S. mpf y
Orchestra. The artists include three
grand opera stars, Fromstad, Ric-
carde Martin, the celebrated tenor
who has been filling Caruso's rolls
in the Metropolitan this season, and
Corinne Rider-Kelsey, the noted so
prano. Besides these there will be
Spalding, the talented young violin
list; Germaine Schnitzer, referred to
as the feminine Paderewski;" Reed
Miller, the oratorio tenor; Madame
Van de Veer, contralto, and Gustave
Holmquist, the wonderful bass-bar
itone, besides two other BASES yet
to be engaged.
The choral features will be a big
part of the festival, for the chorus
will number $50 well trained voices,
representing the best singers that
Kentucky and southern Indiana can
produce drilled by Goo. B. Gookins.
Their work will include one COM
plete grand opera Aida" which is
to be given in concert form; Sir
Hubert Parry's pied Piper of Ham
elm" S. Coleridge Taylor's Death
of Minnehaha" and DR., Henry
Smart's Bride of Dunkerron. "
None of these has ever been heard
in this section before. In addition
there will be children's chorus of
500, which will be a feature of the
Saturday matinee.
Mr.. Damrosch has outlined an
elaborate program of orchestral
violin and piano features, and has
informed the officers of the May
Music Festival Society that he be.
lieves the great armory will be the
scene of the most magnificent must
cal event that the south has ever
known. The armory will have a
seating capacity of over $500 as ar
ranged for the festival, and will be
partitioned and equipped with a
huge platform erected with a sound
ing board and shell, so that the au-
ditory conditions will be perfect and
the great crowds handled without
Inconvenience.
There will be five performances
during the festival, including two
matinees. The schedule of prices
adopted is the lowest in the history
of the Louisville festival, the matt
nee scale being from fifty cents to
$1,OO and night prices from ST to 81.
On Fromstad night, however, the
maximum Price for seats will be
$3.50 Favorable railroad rates will
be in effect during the festival, so
that large attendance from all over
Kentucky and the south Is expected.

SENSATIONS GALORE
WHOLESALE FORGERY IN TRANS
FER OF LANDS MAY MAKE THE
SUITS CRIMINAL.

Muskogee, Okla, Jan. 12-Musko-
gee is honeycombed with government
inspectors who are collecting informa-
tion concerning the legality of the
manner in which town lots have been
scheduled, and it is said their labors
have perturbed men high in business
and social circles of the elect. The
investigation has been quietly and
secretly pursued and details have
been carefully guarded but from infor-
nation that has sifted out it is
learned that the search has been
founded on the alleged fraudulent
filing on different lots in Muskogee in
1901 through the use of the names of
persons living in different states and
who had no right to have any lots
scheduled in. their names.
The matter was first brought to
light in the filing of the townsite
suits commonly known as the Mott
suits" in 1907. These suits were the
result of report made by ID. c.
Foulke, of Richmond, Ind at the in
stance of President Roosevelt. At the
close of the Investigation Mr.. Foulke
recommended that suits be filed to
recover the concerned property back
TO the Greek nation.
Agitated comment has been stirred
up by the remarkable ana seemingly
significant coincidence that the grand
jury which has just adjourned will re.
assemble on January 26
The storm is expected to break
within the coming week and its VIC
lence may carry into the courts on
criminal charges men of the highest
prominence. 1t Is even iutimated that
its fury will be felt as far as Guthrie
where at least one state official will
be asked to explain his connection
with the alleged frauds.
