WHY "ANURIC'
is AN INSURANCE AGAINST SUDDEN DEATH
Sufferers from Backache, Rheumatism and Kidney Trouble

Before an Insurance Company will
take a risk on your life the examining
physician will test the urine and re-
port whether you are a good risk.
When your kidneys get sluggish and
clog, you suffer from backache, sick
headache. dizzy spells, or the twinges
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
Invalids' Hotel and Surgical Institute,
Buffalo. N. Y. Send him 10 cents for
sample package of his new discovery
"Anuric." Write him your symptoms
and send a sample of urine for test.

Fortunate Americana.

When the American citizen looks
abroad he feels inclined to give thanks
for the possession of system of gov.
ernment which. despite partisan diff
ferences. commands universal respect
and confidence. The exceptionally
high standard OF intelligence which
here prevails is a guaranty against
sudden movements in opposition to
the established order. The vast ma
jority of the American people are
capable of analyzing conditions. They
keep in close touch with the affairs
of the world and with the circum.
stances Of their own land They are
growing steadily in political acumen
and are becoming more and more eff.
ciently Independent in their determin.
ations. With every peaceful political
revolution they strengthen the nation.
al foundations by providing outlets for
sentiments and dissatisfactions.

KIDNEY TROUBLE
NOT RECOGNIZED

An examining physician for one of the
prominent Life Insurance Companies, in
an interview of the subject, made the as
tonishing statement that one reason why
80 many applicants for insurance are re-
jected is because kidney trouble is SO com
mon to the American people, and the
large majority of those whose applics-
tione are declined do not even suspect that
they have the disease.
According to this it would seem that a
medicine for the kidneys, possessing real
healing ana curative properties, would be
4 blessing to thousands.
DR.. Kilmer's Swamp Root, the well
known kidney, liver and bladder remedy,
is remarkably successful in sickness caused
by kidney and bladder troubles 1t is mild
and gentle in its action and It's healing in
huence is soon noticed in most cases.
There is no other remedy like Swamp
Root. 1t will surely and effectively over
come kidney, liver and bladder troubles
and you can depend upon it. Go to any
drug store and get a bottle so as to start
treatment today. You will soon see =
marked improvement.
However, If you wish first to test this
great preparation send ten cents to DR..
Kilmer & Co., Binghamton, N. Y, for a
sample bottle. When writing be sure and
mention this paper.-Adv.

Experience has taught DIR. Pierce that
"Anuric" is the most powerful agent
in dissolving 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

 given: The work of the mission has i been growing in the past year and : the services on Sunday and during ! the week have been well attended. The Sunday school class has brought 1 out a good number of boys and men. l The attendance at the Sunday ser and during the summer on Walnut Hill park there would be two hundred or more sometimes.
 Mrs. Adams has held forty-three mothers meetings in the course of the wear and during the last part of the year has done some visiting in the homes with two young women from the Hartford School of Missions. The women of the mission have pre- pared two special cloths for the com muniOn table.
 We have raised in special funds about $165.00 for some of our sick people and eleven Bibles have been given. The Sunday school class helped in the Christmas box for Miss . Chadwick's school in Atlanta, Georgia
 l have preached in Bristol on Sun day afternoons to the Assyrians and Armenians, of which natiOnalities there are ninety residents. l have to preach in three languages and the at tendance is from twenty-five to forty five. Nine persons have joined the church.
 During the year I have made 436 pastoral calls; have held ninetythree cottage meetings in various parts of the city; have had 670 visits from people to whom I could give advice or help in their troubles. We have held fourteen special meetings for those who lost friends and relatives in the old country during this terrible war; when twenty of the villages have been burned by the M Mohammedans. I have made 264 calls in hospitals here and in Hartford besides taking many people to doctors offices, where I can act as interpreter.
 Our mem bership is now eighty-tWO, a gain of seventeen for the year. There have been four funerals-one in Yonkers and three here; and two marriage services.
 We held a week of prayer before Easter Sunday, at which the principal speaker was Rev. F. Coan, an Ameri- can missionary to Persia, who was in Hartford seminary for a time.
