THE NEWEST REr1EDY
FOR
Backache, Rheumatism and Dropsy.

Kidney. Bladder and Uric Acid troubles
bring misery to many. When the kidneys
are weak or diseased, these natural filters
do not cleanse the blood sufficiently, and
the pois0ns are carried to all parts of the
body, There follow depression, aches
and pains, hcaviness, drowsiness, irrita-
bility, headaches, chilliness ard rheu-
matism. In some people there are sharp
pains in the back and lOins, distressing
bladder disorders and sometimes obstin-
ate dropSy. The uric acid sometimes
forms into gravel or kidney stones. When
the uric acid affects the muscles and
joints. it aus lumbago, rheumatism,
govt or sciatica. This is the time to try
"Anuric."
During digestion uric acid is absorbed
into the system from meat eaten, and
ever from some vegetables. The poor
kidneys get tired and backache begins.
This is a good time to take "Anuric,"

ney trouble and Backache. Neglected
kidney trouble is responsible for many
deaths, and Insurance Company eXamin-
ing doctors always test the water of an
applicant before a. policy will be issued.
Have you ever set aside q bottle of water
for tw%enty-four hours? A heavy sedi-
ment or settling sometimes indicates kid
ney trouble. The true nature n char

if silver goes to 20 cents and shows
signs of staying there. thousands of
