Excitement Cauaed death.

A fatality of uncommon occurrence
took place off Buchie (Scotland) har-
Dor some days ago, and the matter was
afterwards ventilated in court through
a prosecution instituted against a SOL
der for attempted suicide. Many peO-
pie witnessed the affair, among others
a lad of tender years named McWil-
llams. An onlooker finally jumped in
and rescued the drowning soldier, al
though it was stated that the latter
resisted. McWilliams, however, be-
came so worked up with excitement
as he viewed what was going on in
the water that his nervous system
gave way. He fell down in fit and
died on the spot. A peculiar fea-
ture of the matter is that the soldier
was saved and subsequently prose
cuted as mentioned.

A recipe given by famous ply
stefan for long life was: keep the
Kidneys in good Orderi Try to elimi-
nate through the skin and intestines
the poisons that otherwise clog the kid
neys. Avoid eating meat as much as
possible; avoid too much salt, alcohol,
tea. Drink plenty Of water.
For those past middle life, for those
easily recognized symptoms Of inflam-
nation, as backache, scalding ''water,"
or If uric acid in the blood has caused
rheumatism, rusty" joints, stiffness,
get Anuric at the drug store. This is
wonderful eliminator of uric acid and
was discovered by DR.. Pierce of In
vallds' Hotel, Buffalo, N. Y. If your
druggist does not keep 1t send 10 cents
to Dr. Pierce for trial package and you
will know that it is thirty-seven times
more potent than lithia and that 1t dis
solves uric acid as hot water does
