WASHINGTON, Dec. l6. Joseph

The Yellow Book. This is not a
magazine of French yarns nor a
theatrical publication. nor anything
like that. In fact the public cannot
purchase it at any news stand or
book store. There has been only one
issue. a strictly limited edition com
sisting Of a single copy.
The yellow Book is a collection OF
clippings from fifty representative
newspapers published throughout the
country, dealing with administrative,
political and general governmental
questions 1t is through the daily
editions of this book that President
Wilson keeps in touch with public
thought
President Wilson has been credited
with this keen practice of keeping his
ear to the ground, his finger on the
public pulse and his eyes on the
score board Of national sentiment
very closely 1t Is one Of his ways
of following the thought Of the peo-
pie, as reflected in the press. The
president does not have time to read
so papers: at least not every day
The White House, therefore, has a
clipping bureau consisting Of the
newspapers and two men to do 'he
clipping.
Every evening as he leaves the
White House. Secretary Tumulty
stops for the Yellow Book and takes
1t home with him, there to peruse II
under the influence or good clgaI
and comfortable slippers In the
morning he takes It Dack to the eX'
eeutive offices and If on the pre-
vious evening he has found any item
he thinks would be Of interest to the
president, he tells the executive all
about It.

Why " AnuriC" -" IS an
INSU ANcE
Against Sudden Death.

Before an Insurance Company will
take a risk on your life the examining
physician will test the urine and report
whether YOU are o good risk. When
YOUR kidneys get sluggish and clog,
YOU suffer from backache, sick-head-
ache, dizzy spells, or the twlnges and
pains OF lumbago, rheumatism and
gout. The urine is often cloudy, full
OF sediment; channels often get sore
and sleep is disturbed two or three
times a night. This is the time you
should consult some physician OF wide
experience--such as DR.. Pierce OF the
Inyalids' Hotel and Surgical Institute,
Buffalo, N. Y. Send him 10 cents for
sample package Of his new discovery,
rAnuric.n Write him your symptoms
and send a sample Of urine for test.
Experience has taught DR.. Pierce that
vAnuric" is the most powerful agent
in dissolving uric acid, as hot water
melts sugar; besides being absolutely
harmless it is endowed with other
properties, for it preserves the kidneys
in q healthy condition by thoroughly
cleansing them. Being 30 many times
more active than lithia, It clears the
heart valves OF any sandy substances
which may clog them and checks the
degeneration Of the blood vessels, as
well as regulating blood pressure:
cAnuricD is a regular insurance and
life.saver for all big meat eaters and those
who deposit lime-salts in their joints.
