WHY "ANURTC"
is AN INSURANCE AGAINST SUDDEN DEATH!
Sufferers from BakaChe Rheumatism and Kidney Trouble

Experience has taught DR.. Pierce that
"Anuric'' is the most powerful agent
in dissolying uric acid, as hot water
melts sugar, besides being absolutely
harmless and is endowed with other
properties, for it preserves the kid
neys in healthy condition by thor
oughly cleansing them. Checks the de-
generation of the blood-vessels, as well
as regulating blood pressure, "Anuric"
is a regular insurance and life-saver
for all big meat eaters and those who
deposit lime-salts in their joints. Ask
the druggist for "Anuric" put up by DR..
Pierce, in 50-cent packages.

Report Shows Deaths of Infants.


Every day in the year an average of
142 babies are born in Wisconsin. The
deaths among children under one year
of age average Is per day. This gives
death rate for children under one
year of age of 1O5 for each 1000 chill
death rate for the entire population,
including persons of all ages. does not
exceed IL per 1000, according to a re-
port by the state board of health.
In 1910 204 per cent of the children
born in the state died before they
cent; in 1913, 9.3 per cent. In 1912.
1873 per cent of the total number of
deaths were of children under one
year. Deaths among children under one
year of age evidently constitute about
one-fifth of all the deaths recorded.
This is not as low as the rate of one
sixth in some states or as high as the
maximum of about one-fourth in other
states.
In the following figures for impor-
tant Wisconsin cities are shown the
deaths in 1914 of children under one
year of age, compared with the total
deaths in such cities:
Milwaukee 1852, total $3.50; Su-
perior 90, total 4S4; Racine 81 total
531; Oshkosh II, total 418; La Crosse
4S, total 434; Madison 48, total 374;
Green Bay 1877, total 518; Sheboygan

Not all of the poorly nourished chill
dren die during the first year of life,
but thousands of them succumb at an
early age from conditions directly
traceable to the first year of life. The
board of health contends that at least
70 per cent of infant mortality is pre-
ventable.

are some sample phrases from a big

The poster bears paragraphs on sew

ANOTHER CRIPPLE TO DIE.
Parents Of Now York Child Prefer
Death to Hopeless Life,

New York, Nov. 25.-The hopelessly
deformed baby daughter born Tuesday
night to Mr.. and Mrs. yoseph E. Rob
erts will be permitted to die a natural
death even tho an operation might
prolong her life, without correcting her
bodily deformity.
That nature should be allowed to
take its course" was decided late this
afternoon by DR.. L. Emmett Holt.
specialist In obstetrics and diseases of
children, whose opinion agreed with
that OF the baby's father and grand
mother. Mrs. Margaret Branley. The
mother, whose condition still Is criti-
cal. has been kept In ignorance OF the
fate Of her child.
DR., Holt by his decision agrees with
the action OF DIR. Harry J. Haiselden.
Of Chicago, who last week refused to
perform an operation in the desperate
hope of saving the life Of the deformed
Bollinger baby.
There ia. however, difference be-
tween the Chicago and New York
cases. which indicate that Dr. Holt has
gone even further than DR.. Haiseldon.
for tho Bollinger baby was mentally
as well as physically incapacitated for
life, while, in the opinion Of the sur
geons who have examined the child.
the mind OF the Roberts baby Is sound.
DR.. Holt's decision. however, is not
based on unwlllingness to prolong the
existence OF tho baby. for he does not
believe that the proposed operation II
performed would save the child's life.
Soon after tho child was born DR..
julius Goldsmith. the attending ply
sician. discovered that the baby was
paralyzed below the waist. had club
feet. stiff joints of the knee and that
It's spine was open near the base.
