What Is Uric Acid !?
THE CAUSE OF BACKACHE,
RHEUMATISM, GRAVEL
AND SUDDEN DEATH.

Ever since the discovery OF uric acid
in the blood by Scheeie, in 1775, and
the bad effect it had upon the body,
scientists and physicians have striven
to rid the tissues and the blood of
this poison. Because of its over
abundance in the system it causes
backache, pains here and there, rheu-
matism, gout, gravel, neuralgia and
sciatica. 1t was DR.. Pierce who dis
covered new agent, called vAnuric,"
which will throw out and completely
eradicate this uric acid from the sys-
tenn. "Anuric" has proved to be 81
times more potent than tithid, and
consequently you need no longer fear
muscular or articular rheumatism or
gout, or many other diseases which are
dependent on an accumulation of uric
acid within the body. Send to DR..
Pierce, of the Invalids' Hotel and Sur
gical Institute, Buffalo, N. Y, for
pamphlet on oAnuric," or send 10 cents
for trial package of cAnuric Tablets"
II you feel that tired, worn out
feeling, backache, neuralgia, or if your
sleep is disturbed by too frequent
urination, go to your best drug store
and ask for Doctor Pierce's Anuric
Tablets.
Doctor Pierce's reputation is back of
this medicine and you know that bis

the constitution OF the State of Mary
