RHEUMATISM RECIPE
PREPARE THIS SIMPLE HOME-MADE
MIXTURE YOURSELr.
Buy the Ingredients from Any Druggist
in Your Town end Shake Them
in s Bottle to Mix This.
A well known authority on Rheuma
tism gives the readers of a large New
York 'daily paper the following valua
ble, yet simple and harmless prescrip
tion, which any on* can easily prepare
at home:
Fluid Extract Dandelion, one-halt
ounce* compound Kargon, one ounce;
Compound Bytnp Sarsaparilla, three
ounces.
Mix by shaking well in a bottle, and
take a teaspoonful after each meal and
at bedtime.
Hs states th at the Ingredients can bs
obtained from any good prescription
pharmacy at sm all cost, and, being a
vegetable extraction, are harmless to
take.
This pleasant mixture, if taken regu
larly for a few days, is said to overcome
almost any case of Rheumatism. The
pain and swelling, if any, diminishes
with each dose, until permanent results
arc obtained, and without injuring the
stomach. While there are many so-
called Rheumatism remedies, patent
medicines, etc., some of which do give
relief, few really give permanent re
sults, and the above will, no doubt, be
greatly appreciated oy many sufferers
here at this tim e.
Inquiry a t the drug stores of even the
small towns elicits the information that
these drugs are harmless and can bs
bought separately, or the druggists will
mix the prescription if asked to.

The figures given by the French la
