Caused by Disease of the Kidneys

The close connection which exists
between the heart and the kidneys is
well known nowadays. AS soon as
kidneys are diseased, arterial tension
is increased and the heart functions
are attacked. When the kidneys no
longer pour forth waste, uremic poi
soning occurs, and the person dies and
the cause is often given as heart dis
ease, or disease of brain or lungs.
1t is good insurance against such
risk to send 10 cents for large trial
package of "Anuric latest dis
covery of DR.. Pierce. Also seno a
sample of your water. This will be
examined without charge by expert
chemists at DR.. Pierce's Invalids' Ho-
tel, Buffalo, N. Y. When you suffer

of July and October here. and the re-
