THE NEW METHOD.
Thy l.. w. Bower, NJ. d.

Backache of any kind is often
caused by Kidney disorder. which
means that the kidneys are not
working properly. Poisonous matter
and uric acid accumulate within the
body in great abundance, over-work-
ing the sick kidneys, hence the con-
gestion of blood causes backache In
the same manner as similar con-
Eestion in the head causes headache.
You become nervous, Respondent,
sick, feverish, irritable. have spots
appearing before the eyes, bags UNI
der the lids, and lack ambotion to
do things.
The latest and most effective
means OF overcoming this trouble,
is TO eat sparingly of meat, drink
plenty of water between meals and
take a single Anuric tablet before
each meal for a while.
Simply ask your favorite druggist
for Anuric if you aren't feeling up
to the standard, If you have lumba-
so, rheumatism, dropsy, begin i'm
mediately this treatment with An
uric. Most setentists and medical
men believe that because of an over
abundance of uric acid in the sys-
TEN, uriatic salts are deposited in
the tissues and cause rheumatism
and govt.
The physicians and specialists at
DIR. Plerce's Institution in Buffalo,
N. Y, have thoroughly tested An
uric and have been with one accord
successful in Graduating and throw
ing from the system the uric acid
which aceumulates and poisons
Patients having once used Anurie
at the institution have repeatedly
sent back for more. Such demand
has been created that Doctor Pierce
decided TO put Anuric IN the drug
stores of this country. in ready
to-use form. 1t will be their own
fault il those suffering from uric
acid troubles do not take advantage
of this wonderful remedy ady.)
