HOME-MADE REMEDY
INEXPENSIVE AND EASILY PRE
PARED BY ANYONE.
Is Said to Promptly Relieve Backache
and Overcome Kidney Trouble and
Bladder Weakness Though Harm
less and Pleasant to Take.
What will appear very Interesting
to many people here is the article
taken from a New York daily paper,
giving a simple prescription, as formu
lated by a noted authority, who claims
that he has found a positive rem
edy to cure almost any case of back
ache or kidney or bladder derange
ment, in the following simple prescrip
tion, if taken before the stage of
Bright’s disease:
Fluid Extract Dandelion, one-half
ounce; Compound Kargon, one ounce;
Compound Syrup Sarsaparilla, three
ounces. Shake well in a bottle and
take in teaspoonful doses after each
meal and again at bedtime.
A well-known authority, when asked
regarding this prescription, stated
that the ingredients are all harmless,
and can be obtained at a small cost
from any good prescription pharmacy,
or the mixture would be put up if
asked to do so. He further stated that
while this prescription is often pre
scribed in rheumatic afflictions with
splendid results, he could see no rea
son why it would not be a splendid
remedy for kidney and urinary trou
bles and backache, as it has a peculiar
action upon the kidney structure,
cleansing these most important or
gans and helping them to sift and
filter from the blood the foul acids
and waste matter which cause sick
ness and suffering. Those who suffer
can make no mistake in giving it a
trial.
NO NEED FOR WORDS.
Brief Pantomime Told Everything to
the Onlooker.
Harrison Grey Fiske discussed, at a
dinner in New York, the art of act
ing.
"I believe,” said Mr. Fiske, “in sub
tlety and restraint. A nod, a shake of
the head, a silent pause—these things
are often more effective than the most
violent jelling and ranting.
"Life is like that, subtle and silent.
What, for instance, could be more ex
pressive than this scene, a scene
without a spoken word, that I once
witnessed in the country?
“An undertaker stood on a corner
near a noble mansion. He elevated
his brows hopefully and inquiringly
as a physician came from the house.
The physician, compressing his lips,
shook his head decidedly and hurried
to his carriage. Then the undertaker
with a sigh passed on.
FURIOUS HUMOR ON CHILD.
itching. Bleeding Sores Covered Body
—Nothing Helped Her—Cuticura
Cures Her In Five Days.
“After my granddaughter of about
seven years had been cured of the
measles, she was attacked about a
fornight later by a furious itching and
painful eruption all over her body,
especially the upper part of it, forming
watery and bleeding sores, especially
under the arms, of considerable size.
She suffered a great deal and for three
weeks we nursed her every night,
using all the remedies we could think
of. Nothing would help. We tried the
Cuticura Remedies and after twenty
four hours we noted considerable im
provement, and after using only one
complete set of the Cuticura Remedies,
in five consecutive days the little one,
much to our joy, had been entirely
cured, and has been well for a long
time. Mrs. F. Ruefenacht, R. F. D. No.

When the Orator Soared.
In the course of an address extolling
the virtues of the medical profession,
Hr. L. B. McBrayer of Asheville, N. C.,
used the fallowing characteristic
southern language:
“Could I borrow from the sun his
cheery smile, from the moon her
golden beams of light, from the south
ern zephyrs their softness, from the
rose its fragrance, from the rainbow
its celestial beauty, from the babbling
brook its laughter and song, from the
sea its awe and wonder, from the val
ley its serenity, and from the moun
tains their majesty and put these
down upon a piece of azure blue sky,
with comets for commas and planets
for periods, I might then paint for you
what the practice of medicine is like.”

A GREAT BUILDING
Church at Washington to Equal Larg
est Churches of Europe.
Washington, Sept.—Sunday witness
ed two events here of general interest
to the religious world at large, and es
pecially to the Episcopal church. The
first and chief of these events was the
laying of the foundation stone of the
Cathedral of Saints Peter and Paul
at Mount St. Alban, Wisconsin avenue.
The other was the great open air ser
vice on the same ground, under the
auspices of the International Conven
tion of the Brotherhood of St. An
drew, which brought to a close the
convention which has been in session
here for the past week.
The cornerstone laying was under
the guidance of the Episcopal church
in America.
With befitting ceremonies and sol
emnity, the foundation stone of what
promises to equal in point of architec
ture and outlay the most magnifi
cent cathedrals in the world, was laid
at noon.
It was a notable occasion, made
more so by the presence of the presi
dent of the United States and the
bishop of London.
Among the distinguished people in
the assemblage besides President
Roosevelt and Bishop Ingram, were
J. Pierpont Morgan, Chief Justice Full
er of the United States Supreme Court,
Associate Justice Brewer, Secretary
of the Navy Metcalf, Secretary of the
Interior Garfield, Admiral Rixey, Pres
ident Finley of the Southern Railway
and President Needham of the George
Washington University.
Among the prelates who too part
in the exercises were Right Rev. A.
E. Winnington Ham, the Lord Bishop
of London, who delivered the invoca
tion; Right Rev. C. E. Woodcock,
bishop of Kentucky; Right Rev. T. J.
Gailor, bishop of Tennessee, and the
bishops of Virginia and Maryland.
The religious services proper began
with prayer by Rev. Dr. Randolph
McKim of the Church Epiphany. Then
Bishop Satterlee performed the cere
mony of laying the foundation stone.
The trowel was the one used in lay
ing the foundation stone of the capi
tol building and the guvel was used
by George Washington.
The ceremony of laying the founda
tion stone completed, Bishop Satter
lee introduced President Roosevelt,
who made a brief address.
Cotton Handlers to Strike.
New Orleans, La.—Action which is
expected to cause a strike of about
8,000 cotton handlers Monday, was
taken by the commercial bodies of
New Orleans Sunday. The exchanges
instructed steamship agents at this
port to disregard the demands of 1,200
cotton screw men and to hire non
union laborers to load their vessels.
All the other unions in the cotton
loading business, including longshore
men, yardmen, scalemen, markers and
freight handlers, declare they will
strike if non-union screwmen are em
ployed. The steamship agents demand
that screwmen load 200 bales of cot
ton daily, in place of 160, formerly
loaded. The screwmen have refused
and have demanded an increase oi
$1 a day for stowing 160 bales, rais
ing their wages to $5 and $6 a day.
Two-thirds of the men affected are
negroes. The last big levee strike
here occurred in 1901 and was attend
ed with bloodshed.

anese sailing schooner, operating in
Behring Sea, this season. The Case
called at Litka Bay for water and
the Russian priests asked Capt. Mun
ro to inform the United States au
thorities of the outrage. The Jap
anese landed from the schooner and
broke open the houses and looted right
and left. Many things were dragged
from the houses. Another report was
received that the Japanese sailors
had landed on Sheliko Island and kill
ed cattle running on ranges there.

TIRED BACKS.
The kidneys have a great work to
do in keeping the blood pure. When
they get out of order
it causes backache,
headaches, dizziness,
languor and distress
ing urinary troubles.
Keep the kidneys
well and all these
sufferings will be
saved you. Mrs. S. A.
Moore, proprietor of
a restaurant at Wa
terville, Mo., says:
"Before using Doan’s Kidney Pills I
suffered everything from kidney trou
bles for a year and a half. I had pain
in the back and head, and almost con
tinuous in the loins and felt weary all
the time. A few doses of Doan’s Kid
ney Pills brought great relief, and I
kept on taking them until in a short
time I was cured. I think Doan's
Kidney Pills are wonderful.”

On Wit and Humor.
Man is the only animal that laughs
and weeps, for he is the only animal
that is struck with the difference be
tween what things are and what they
ought to be. We weep at what
thwarts or exceeds our desires in seri
ous matters: we laugh at what only
disappoints our expectations in trifles.
We shed tears from sympathy with
real and necessary distress; as we
burst into laughter from want of sym
pathy with that which is unreasonable
and unnecessary, the absurdity of
which provokes our spleen or mirth,
rather than serious reflections on it.—

‘‘Haven’t you loaned that De Broke

“No. I’ve let him have a number

“Knowing his reputation, why did
you give him that last five?”
“It was this way. He said if I'd let
him have it he’d pay me something
on what he already owed me.”
“Well?”
“So I let him have the five and he
paid me one dollar on account.”
It Will Stay There.
‘In my family medicine chest no

MISS ROSE MOORE
Women Avoid
Operations
When a woman suffering from
female trouble is told that an oper
ation is necessary, it, of course,
frightens her.
The very thought of the hospital,
the operating table and the knife
strikes terror to her heart.
It is quite true that these troub
les may reach a stage where an ope
ration is the only resource, but a
great many women have been cured
by Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable
Compound after an operation has
been decided upon as the only cure.
The strongest and most grateful
statements possible to make come from women who by taking
Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound
made from native roots and herbs, have escaped serious operations
evidenced by Miss Rose Moore'scase, of 307 W. 26th St., N.Y. She writes
Dear Mrs. Pinkham:-’‘Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound has
cured me of the very worst form of female trouble and I wish to express
to you my deepest gratitude. I suffered intensely for two years so that
I was tillable to attend to my duties and was a burden to my family T
doctored anddoctored with only temporary relief and constantly objectinir
to an operation which I was advised to undergo. I decided to try Lydia
E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound; it cured me of the terrible trouble
and I am now in better health than I have been for many years ”
This and other such cases should encourage every woman to try Ly
dia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound before she submits to an operation
Mrs. Pinkham’s Standing Invitation to Women
Women suffering from any form of female weakness are invited to
promptly communicate with Mrs. Pinkham, at Lynn, Mass. From the
symptoms given, the trouble may be located and the quickest and surest
way of recovery advised.
RHEUMATISM
CAN NOT BE RUBBED AWAY
It Is perfectly natural to rub the spot that hurts, and when themuseles
nerves, joints and bones are throbbing and twitching with the pains of
Rheumatism the sufferer is apt to turn to the liniment bottle, or some other
external application, in an effort to get relief from the disease, by producing
counter-irritation on the flesh. Such treatment will quiet the pam tempo!
rarily, but can have no direct curative effect on the real disease because it
does not reach the blood, where the cause is located. Rheumatism is more
than skin deep—it is rooted and grounded in the blood and can only be
reached by constitutional treatment—IT CANNOT BE RUBBED AWAY.
Rheumatism is due to an excess of uric acid in the blood, brought about by
the accumulation in the system of refuse matter which the natural avenues
of bodily waste, the Bowels and Kidneys, have failed to carry off. This
refuse matter, coming in contact with the different acids of the body, forms
uric acid which is absorbed into the blood and distributed to all peels’of the
body, and Rheumatism gets possession of the system. The aches and paiu3
are only symptoms, and though they may be scattered or relieved for a time
by surface treatment, they will reappear at the first exposure to cold or
dampness, or after an attack of indigestion or other irregularity. Rheuma
tism can never be permanently cured while the circulation remains saturated
with irritating, pain-producing uric acid poison. The disease will shift
from muscle to muscle or joint to joint, settling on the nerves, causing
inflammation and swelling and such terrible pains that the nervous system
is often shattered, the health undermined, and perhaps the patient becomes
deformed and crippled for life. S. S. S. thoroughly cleanses the blood and
renovates the circulation by neutralizing the acids and expelling all foreign
matter from the system It warms and invigorates the blood so that instead
of a weak, sour stream, constantly’ deposit
ing acrid and corrosive matter in the mus
cles, nerves, joints and bones, thebodyisfed
and nourished by rich, health-sustaining
blood which completely’ and permanently
cures Rheumatism. S. S. S. is composed
PURELY VEGETABLE both purifying and tonic properties—
just what is needed in every case of Rheu
matism. It contains no potash, alkali or other mineral ingredient, but is
made entirely’ of purifying, healing extracts and juices of roots, herbs and
barks. If you are suffering from Rheumatism do not waste valuable time
trying to rub a blood disease away, but begin the use of S. S. S. and write
us about your case and our physicians will give y’ou any’ information or
advice desired free of charge and will send our special treatise on Rheumatism.
