especially for kidney complaints and
diseases arising from disorders of the
kidneys and bladder, such as backache,
weak back, rheumatism, dropsy, con-
gestion of the kidneys, inflammation
of the bladder, scalding urine and
urinary troubles. The physicians and
specialists at DR.. Pierce's great Institu-
ton, at Buffalo, N. Y, have thoroughly
tested this prescription and have been
with one accord successful in eradicat-
ing these troubles, and in most cases
absolutely curing the diseased kidneys.
Patients having once used "Anuric "
at DR.. Pierce's Invalids' Hotel, have re-
peatedly sent back for more. Such
demand has been created that DIR. Pierce
has decided to put vAnuric" in the drug
stores OF this country, in ready-to-use
form. IF not obtainable send one dime

COOK LOSES INDEMNITY SUIT.

Widow Awarded $2,5oo for Death Of
Husband With Pneumonia After
Accident.
Denver.-The State Industrial Com
mission has ruled that occupational
diseases are not covered by the work
mems compensation law. and that,
therefore, indemnities under the work
mems compensation insurance law
cannot be paid for suffering or death
due to such diseases.
This was one of the most import
ant points remaining before the COM
mission for determination. The de-
cision of the commission was given
on an appeal made by Sam Virgil. n
cooks assistant, who claimed compen-
sation because of a rash that broke
out on his arms while he was en-
ployed in Rocky Ford hotel.
In its decision the commission held
that the rash was an occupational dis.
ease, not an accident. and that, there
fore, Virgil was not entitled to an In
demnity.
