MIX THIS FOR RHEUMATISM
Easily Prepared and inexpensive and
Really Does tho Work, Says
Noted Authority.

Thousands of men and women who
have felt the sting and torture Of that
dread disease, Rheumatism, which is
no respecter of age, persons, sex,
color or rank, will be interested to
know that it Is one Of the easiest af-
11ictions of the human body to con-
Quer. Medical science has proven 1t
not distinct disease in itself, but a
symptom caused by inactive kidneys.
Rheumatism is uric acid in the blood
and other waste products of the sys.
tenn which should be filtered and
strained out in the form of urine. The
function Of the kidneys is to sift these
poisons and acids out and keep the
blood clean and pure. The kidneys
however, are of sponge-like substance,
the holes or pores Of which will some
times, either from overwork, cold or
exposure become clogged, and falling
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 rheu-
matism and backache, often producing
complications Of bladder and urinary
disease, and general weakness.
The following simple prescription is
said to relieve the worst cases OF
rheumatism because Of its direct &C.
ton upon the blood and kidneys, re"
neving, too, the most severe forms OF
bladder and urinary troubles: Fluid
Extract Dandenon, one~half ounce;
Compound Kargon, one ounce; Com
pound Syrup sarsaparilla, three
ounces. Mix by shaking we'll in bot
tie and take in teaspoonful doses after
each meal and at bedtime. The in
gradients can be had from any pre-.
scription pharmacy and are absolutely
harmless and safe to use at any time.

Henry Morris Moore felt himself very supe-

refuge for the few remaining days of blasted
life. Yes, that was the adjective she was using,
and (strange coincidenceD the villain below
stairs was also using 1t, though perhaps in a
more coloquial sense. He had just knocked
a whole pile Of the neat notebooks in

One remained in his hand-a small pocket note
book with rounded corners, which served to
carry about him for the shortest personal jot-

dressing table, and when he shaved he was in

as brief and bald as possible.

 Judge Lockwood stated that in case death was hastened in any way by the injuries received, the person causing such injuries was liable.

He said he had seen it done If Walters was going at miles an hour and applied the brakes instantly as he says he did, he could have stopped in less than 15 feet as testified to.
