NO USE FOR IT IN FIVE YEARS.
A leading banker of Wisconsin
vouches for the following incident:
Within the past year the managers
Of q brewery in one Of the smaller
cities Of the state decided to build q
new malt house at q cost Of $4,000.
They commissioned their president to
90 to Milwaukee and effect a loan.
He naturally went to one of the big
brewery-controlled banks of that city.
The vice-president to whom he applied
for the loan, was formerly In the brew
ing business and had made a hand
some fortune in that business during
the palmy days before the drys had
begun to knock the big profits out Of
1t. He very wisely got out of the bust.
ness when the getting was good, not
as now. when brewing stocks are all
shot to pieces.
To the utter surprise and chagrin
Of the out.of.town brewer he was
promptly refused the loan. He 9
claimed: What's the matter? With
all this fine property we got, amt we
good for $25. 000?"
Quick came the answer from the ex-
brewer-banker: But what do you
want to use the $4,000 for?"
ITO build a malt house, so we can
enlarge our business" said the brewer.
But, you fool. don't you know that
in five years you will have no use
whatever for a malt house?" replied
the banker.

WHY "ANURIC"
is AN INSURANCE AGAINST SUDDEN DEATHl
Sufferers from Dackache, Rheumatism and Kidney Trouble

Before an Insurance Company will
take a risk on your life the examining
physician will test the urine and re-
port whether you are a good risk.
When your kidneys get sluggish and
clog, you suffer from backache, sick
headache, 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
"Anuric." Write him your symptoms
and send a sample Of urine for test.

Instead Of Dosing Delicate Little Stom.
achs They Recommend the External
Treatment - Vap.O.Rub.

Mrs. M. J.. Porter. and Mrs. J.
Jacques. Of Bolivar, Mo-, and Mrs. M. q.
Ferret, on Rural Route No. 2, like all
intelligent mothers, believe internal
medicines are bad for children, and
yet cold troubles must have some kind
of treatment. When Vick's Vap-O.Rub
was introduced here from the South
last season these ladies' found 1t filled
the need exactly. Vap-O-Rub is
a salve, which, when applied to the
warmth Of the body, is vaporized by
the body heat. These vapors, inhaled
with each breath, carry the medication
through the air passages to the lungs.
and, in addition, vick's is absorbed
through the skin, relieving the tight.
ness and soreness. This two fold
action makes vap-O-Rub useful for
q wide variety of inf1ammations-from
infammations of the air passages and
lungs, such. as head colds, catarrh,
asthmatic troubles, bronchitis and
deep chest colds-down to inflamma.
