THE FIRST TIME IN HISTORY
Gallieni Becomes War Minister and

Noted Men Occupy Other
important Positions.

'aris.-A new French cabinet. head.
ed by Aristide BRAND as premier and
minister of foreign affairs, has come
into existence.
This is the first time in the history
of the French republic that there Is
coalition ministry of all the oppos-
Ing parties and factions. 1t follows
closely on the recent innovation OF
forming British coalition cabinet.
The action taken in forming the
cabinet was the elimination OF a deep
popular sentiment that at the supreme
crisis of the war party division should
give way to united action by all the
parties in common support OF the
government.
Remarkable in Personnel.
The resulting coalition is remark.
able in personnel, including such ven
cradle figures as Charles de Frey
cinet, who was one of Gambetta' s
aides in the upheaval of 1870; Jules
Meline. a former premier who insti-
tuted the protective system of France,
and Leon Bourgeois. who is known as
the Grand Old Man of the Radical
Party" which has the largest mem
bership in parliament.

The Newest Discovery in Chemistry

This Is a recent discovery of Doctor
Pierce, who is head of the Invalid 8
Hotel and Surgical Institute at Buffalo,
N. Y. Experiments at DR.. Pierces
Hospital for several years proved that
there is no other eliminator of uric
acid that can be comparable it. For
those easily recognized symptoms of
nfiammation-as backache, scalding
urine and frequent urination, as we'll
as sediment in the urine, or if uric
acid in the blood has caused rheuma-
tism, it is simply wonderful how sure
" "Anuric" acts. The best of results are
always obtained in cases of acute
rheumatism in the joints, in gravel
and govt, and invariably the pains and
stiffness which so frequently and per-
sistently accompany the disease rap
idly disappear.

NOTE. = "Anuric" is thirty-seven
times more active than lithia in elimi-

reliable chemical compound that may
be safely given to children, but should
be used only by grown-ups who actu-

perfect health, by conscientiously
using one box-or more in extreme
