Why " Anuric" is an
In s UR A N G e
Against Sudden Death.

Before an Insurance Company will
take risk on your life the examining
physician will test the urine and report
whether you are 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 a 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,
UAnuric" Write him your symptoms
and send a sample of urine for test.
Experience has taught DIR. Pierce that
0Anuric" 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
well as regulating blood pressure.
rAnuric" is a regular insurance and
life-saver for all big meat eaters and those
who deposit ime-salts in their joints.
Ask the druggist for "Anuric" put up
by DIR. Pierce, in 50-cent packages.

HIDDEN DANGERS
Nature Gives Timely Warnings That
No Stanford Stanford Citizen
Can Afford to Ignore.

DANGER SIGNAL No. 1 comes
from the kidney secretions. They will
warn you when the kidneys are
weak. Well kidneys secrete a clear
amber fluid. Disordered kidneys
send out thin, pale and foamy, or
a thick, red, ill-smelling urine, full
of sediment and irregular of pass
age.
DANGER SIGNAL NO. 2 comes
from the back. Back pains, dull and
heavy, or sharp and acute, suggest
weak kidneys and in that case warn
you of the danger of dropsy, gravel
and Bright's disease. Doan's Kidney
Pills are endorsed by thousands.
Here's Stanford proof:
B. Holderman, of Stanford, saws:

proved to be just as represented. NV

ache. Hearing Doan's Kidney Pills

palmer or more logical. Come and
hear him explain the way of life, see
his great earnestness and witness his
zeal for the saving of souls.
His work here for this church is a
living memorial of his ability to
reach stony hearts and turn the in
different into thoughtful, prayer
full channels. He is deserving of a
place in the pulpit of any great
church and his willingness to exert
his talents in a small place like this
is another proof of his greatness as
a minister of Christ. Come and hear
the beautiful special songs by his
father, Mr.. Wyatt, who is conduct

The mission of the Red Cross
Christmas seal has become so

year the sale has become more
and more of real asset in the
fight being waged against tuber-
culosis throughout the state, the
sale every year netting hundreds
of dollars which are used to de-
fray the expenses of visiting
nurses and other preventative
measures. Any sum, however,

In Strange Places

Under date of Camp Llano
Grande, Dec. 4, friend from
Company L writes us as follows:
week before last we received
the Gazette at 600 o'clock one
out on the old Palo Alto
battlefield. Quite romantic, me
thinks. We were officially sup
posed to get only our first class
mail, but Willard Simpson ex-
ceeded speed limits of regula-
tions and brought us the Ca
zettes. Simpson, since getting
his discharge has been driving
cars here, making good money,
and giving particular attention
to Company l.. He has followed
us on hikes and gotten us "eats'
cheaper than other persons fur
nished. 1t seemed mighty fine
to get the Gazette at that time.
Shortly afterwards we were hur-
ried out to the firing line and
Gazettes were slammed into hav-
ersacks to 60 along, and later
while out in the trenches we
read and re-read the odd pa
per through. Surely the Ga
zette meanders into strange
places
