Home-Made Catarraa Core. Any one can mix right at home the best remedyof itskind known. Ihe name "Cyclone" is given to the following prescription, it is supposed, because of its prompt ness in driving from the blood and system every vestige of catarrhal poison, relieving this foul and dread disease, no mat ter where located. To prepare the mixture: Get from any good pharmacy one-half ounce Fluid Extract Dandelion, one ounce Compound K argon and three ounces Compond Syrup Sarsa parilla. Shake well and use in teaspoonf ul doses after each meal and at bedtime. This is a harmless, inexpensive mixture, which has a peculiar action upon the eliminative tis sues of the Kidneys, assisting them to filter and strain from the blood and system all catar rhal poisons, whicq, if not eradi cated, are absorbed by the mu cous membrane, and an open sore or catarrh is the resuld. Prepare some and try it. as it is the prescription of an eminent catarrh specialist of national reputation. Mrs. Minnie Moring Beaslay.
