PRESCRIPTION FOR KIDNEYS
Said to be the Best Ever Compounded d
for Kidney and Bladder Complaints

Too much emphasis cannot be laid on
care of the kidneys and bladder Weak
or inactive kidneys lead to most serious
and complicated consequences, such as
chronic rheumatism, diabetes or Brights S
disease. For this reason, such symptoms
as pain in the back. rheumatic pains in
the joints, frequent or highly-colored
urination, soreness in the groin or hip,
dizziness, puffiness under the eyes, etc,
should be attended TO without delay
The following prescription is highly er
dorsed by high medical authority. One
half ounce Murax compound, one-haff
ounce fluid extract Buchu, six ounces
good pure gin.', These ingredients can
be bought separately and mixed at
home or any good druggist can put
them up. For best results, take in
doses of one to two teaspoonfuls three
times a day, after meals. This treat
ment cleanses clOgged up or inactive
kidneys and allows them TO perform
their natural function of filtering pois-
onous waste matter and uric acid from
the system. Taken in time, the above
treatment is the best obtainable.

Triangles.

Since triangles have been dragged
into the city campaign for purposes
Of comparison and diyination Il
might be well for some who are a bit
rusty on geometry to look into that
science briefly and ascertain the diff
ferences OF the various triangles.
Triangles are entangling things some
times. The Pittsburg Dispatch gives
an illustration:
a summary report iby a New York
newspaper Of the charges against
an unnamed army officer presents \
mathematical statement more qniune
we fear than Is the asserted mis-
doing OF the officer. The assertion
Is that the latter padded his expense
accounts by going out Of his way %
visit three large cities so situated
that a straight line drawn from one
10 the other forms perfect tri-
angle. : (
The offense charged is by no
means humorous, being sordid and
commonplace. But the refreshing and
unique geometrical idea outlined Is
framed to inspire amasement and
admiration. First, 1t is well caicu.
lated to evoke an earnest desire to
see fhe drawing Of an. imperfect tri-
angle defined by three points. But
even that curiosity is overshadow-
ed by the thought that the straight
line which forms triangle of any
sort will be entitled to classification
as the most unique, original and In
comprehensive of all straight lines
since Euclid defined them.
