sample Of your water and describe
symptoms. DR.. Pierce's chemist will
examine 1t, then DR.. Pierce will report
to you without fee or charge.
NOTE. - "Anuric" is thirty-seven
times more active than lithia In elimi-
mating uric acid, and Is a harmless but
reliable chemical compound that may
be safely given to children, but should
be used only by srown-ups who actu-
ally wish to restore their kidneys to
perfect health, by conscientiously
using one box-or more in extreme
cases-as "Anuric" thanks to Doctor
Pierce's achievement) is by far the
most perfect kidney and bladder cor

This Is q recent discovery Of Doctor
Pierce, who Is head Of the Invalid's

N. Y. Experiments at DR.. Pierce's
Hospital for several years proved that
there is no other eliminator Of uric
acid that can be compared to 1t. For
those easily recognized symptoms Of
infiammation-as backache, scalding

as sediment in the urine, or II uric

sistently accompany the disease rap
