If you Suffer from Backache, Lum- bago, Kidneys or Rheumatism,
 Take Hot Water and <fANURIC"

American men and women must guard constantly against kidney trouble, be- cause we eat too much and all our food is rich. Our blood is filled with uric acid which the kidneys strive to filter out, they weaken from overwork, be- come sluggish; the eliminative tissues clog and the result is kidney trouble, bladder weakness and general decline in health
 When, your kidneys feel like Jumps of lead, when your back hurts or the urine is cloudy, full of sediment, or you are obliged to seek relief two or three times during the night, when you suffer with sick headache or dizzy, nervous spells, acid stomach, or you have rheumatism when the weather is bad, get from your druggist-"ANURIC."

tism, gout, gravel, neuralgia and sciatica result. It was Dr. Pierce who discovered new agent, called "Anuric," which will throw out and eradicate this uric acid from the system. Dr. Pierce believes "Anuric" to be 37 times more potent than MAia, and consequently you need no longer fear muscular or articular rheuma- tism or gout, or many other diseases which are dependent on an accumulation of uric acid within the body. Send Dr. Pierce, Invalids' Hotel, Buffalo, N. Y., l0c for trial package or $l.0o for full treatment "Anuric"
