Ever since Scheele, In 1775. discov-
cred that uric acid was present in the
system, scientific men have been
making experimental investigations
and il is the almost universal opinion
of our best medical men that the
presence of uric acid in the system
in excess is the cause of rheumatism
and gout. When the urate salts are
precipitated out of the blood into the
solid tissue-structure the person suf-
fers from gout and rheumatism in

from lumbago and pain in the back

and take them before meals regu-

system and will carry off the uric
acid by stimulating the kidneys. Then
tincture iodine may be painted over
the swellinGs, or in more severe cases
hot linseed poultices may be applied
to soothe the local symptoms. But
most important is II for the sufferer
to abstain from meat, to diet, drink
only lemonade or hot water, and
take Anuric for considerable time
as it causes a drainage outward of
the uric acid and is many times more
potent than ltfia and usually one
finds that IL dissolves uric acid as

Howard is 81 years old and has
lived in the mountains of Plumas
County all his life. He has good
farm, which makes a living for him.
self and family. But the essence of
peppermint brings the extra coin that
sends the boys to college.
Howard is trapper. He is the best
trapper in all Plumas County His
speciality is mountain lions, and as he
gets s25 for every mountain lion scalp
from Plumas County and sells every
pelt for from $40 to $40, he makes
pretty good money when he averages
five lions week.
For five years Howard has averaged
FIVE lions a week He has caught
1900 in the last five years, and these
captured animals have netted him
$32,500 in bounty. This does not take
into consideration the money received
from hides. On an average, says
Howard. he has received about $40 a
hide.
'I'm just about to retire." said How.
ard, while in Marysville the other day.
"And / don't mind telling the secret
of my success as a trapper. I've
caught more mountain lions than any
man living, perhaps, and it's all due TO
the visit to my home five years ago
of city dude college professor
"This college professor was a nat
uralist or whatever you call those fell
lows who go around sticking pins into
butterflies and give knockout drops to
grasshoppers and bugs.
: "He always carried bottle of pep.
permint oil with him, and after he'd
take drink on the sly he'd put some
Of that perfume on his breath.
"One day 1 took him TO my traps
and he was bending over watching me
bait one for a lion when The bottle
slipped out AMI broke on the trap. The
peppermint spilled all over that trap
and / couldn't get the odor off it. But
! set it anyway.
'The next day when / got there
had big lion in the trap and there
were three more lions around licking
UP the dit where that stuff had been
spilled.
THAT gave me an idea and / got
a gallon of that stuff and put it on my
