Mix the following by shaking well
in a bottle, and take in teaapoonful
doses after meals and at bedtime:
Fluid Extract Dandelion, one-half

Compound Syrup Saraaparilla, three
ounces. A local druggist the au
thority that these aimplo, harmless

The fluid ia said to cleanse and
atrengthen the clogged and inactive
Kidneys, overcoming Backache, Bind
ler weaknesses and Urinary Troubles
of all kinds, if taken before the stage
of Bright's disease.
Thoseho have .tried this say it
positively overcomes pain in the back,
clears the urine of sediment and regu
lates urination, ' especially at .1 night,
curing even the worst forms of blad
der weakness. . ' . i - i
Every man or woman here who
feels that the' kidneys are not strong
or acting in a healthy .manner should
mix this prescription at home and
give it a trial, as : it is said to do
wonders for many persons.
The Scranton (Pa) Times was first
to print this remarkable prescription,
in October, of, 1906, sii)ee when all the
leading newspapers . of New ' York,
Boston, Philadelphia, Pittsburg and
other cities have made many an
nouncements of it to other readers. -3

Mr. Gesner says that we have one of
the prettiest towns he has visited in
some time. "You have the cleanest
town I have visited lately. It is the
best cared for. It is I presume due to
the neatness of the citizens and the

Growing Sentiment In Linn.
There is a growing sentiment
against the present local option law
of Linn county, says Albany Herald.
Blind piga and neighborhood rows are
the result of the law so far. Drink
ing has not diminished, but revenues
to the different cities of the county
have diminished. Boys get whiskey
now who never got it before. The
law ia a failure and always will be.
If there is not a change in the law
the taxpayers have only Been the be
ginning of excess taxes to be imposed.
' Serious Results Feared.
You may well fear serious results
from a cough or cold, as pneumonia or
consumption starts with a cold. Foley's
Honey and Tar cures tbe most obntl
nate coughs or eolds and prevents ser
ious results. Refuse substitutes. Dove
