Why !" AnurIc" Is 90

Against Sudden Death.

Before an Insurance Company will
take a risk on your life the examining
physician will test the urine and report
whether you are a good risk. When
your kidneys get sluggish and clog,
you suffer from backache, sick-head.
ache, dizzy spells, or the twinges and
pains of lumbago, rheumatism and
govt. The urine is often cloudy, full
of sediment; channels often get sore
and sleep is disturbed two or three
times night. This is the time you
should consult some physician OF wide
experience-such as DR.. Pierce of the
Invalids' Hotel and Surgical Institute,
Buffalo, N. Y. Send him 10 cents for
sample package of his new discovery,
sAnuric." Write him your symptoms
and send a sample of urine for test.
Experience has taught DR.. Pierce that
vAnuric" is the most powerful agent
in dissolving uric acid, as hot water
melts sugar; besides being absolutely
harmless it is endowed with other
properties, for it preserves the kidneys
in a healthy condition by thoroughly
cleansing them. Being so many times
more active than lithia, it clears the
heart valves of any sandy substances
which may clog them and checks the
degeneration of the blood vessels, as
we'll as regulating blood pressure:
"Anuric" is regular insurance and
life-saver for all big meat eaters and those
who deposit lime-salts in their joints.
Ask the druggist for "Anuric" put up
by DR.. Pierce, in 50-cent packages.
