possible; avoid too much salt, alcohol,

For those past middle life, for those
easily recognized symptoms Of inflam-

get Anuric at the drug store. This is
a wonderful eliminator of uric acid and
was discovered by DR.. Pierce of In

will know that 1t is many times

rison. Thieves broke into a mercan-
tile company store and opened the
safe by means of an explosive, but
without finding anything. They also
broke into the postoffice, but were dis
appointed there also. as the postmas-

home with him. They then escaped
on handcar which they stole from
the Colorado & Southern Toulouse.
Similar robberies were perpetrated
at Lafayette and Lyons few days
