All people in America and especially
those who are past middle age are
prone to eat too much meat and in con.
sequence deposit lime-salts in their
arteries, veins and joints. They often
suffer from twinges of rheumatism or
lumbago, sometimes from gout, swol-
len hands or feet. Such people are
not always able to exercise sufficient
ly in the outdoor air or drink enough
pure water in order to sweat freely
and excrete impurities thru the skin.
Or. Pierce has conducted experiments
and thoroughly tested a uric acid sol
vent at his Invalids' Hotel and Surgi-
cal Institute which he is convinced is
many times more potent than lithia-
this he named "Anuric." II can be had
at almost all drug stores by simply
asking for DR.. Pierce's Anuric for kid
