He continues "in Helonias we h*re

seen which does not present some indication

Home-made Catarrh Cure.
Any one can mix right at home the
best remedy of its kind known. The
lame "Cyclone" is given to the fol
lowing prescription, it is suppored, be
cause of its promptness in driving from
rhe r blood and systefh every vestige of
catarrhal poison, relieving this foul and
dread disease,no matter where located,
t'o prepare the mixture: Get from any
good pharmacy one-half ounce Fluid
Extraet Dandelion,—one ounce Com
pound Kargon and three ounces Com
pound Syrup Sarsaparilla. Shake well
and use in teaspoonful doses after each
meal and at bed time.
This is a harmless, inexpensive mix
ture, which has a peculiar action upon
the eliminative tissues of the Kidneys,
assisting them to flltnr and strain from
the blood and system all catarrhal
poisons, which, if not eiadicated, are
absorbed by the mucous membrane,
and an open sore of catairh is the re
sult.
Prepare some and try it, as it is the
| prescription of an eminent catarrh spe
cialist of natioeal reputation.
