THE NEW METHOD
fRv r. w ROVER M ny

Backache of any kind is often caused
by kidney disorder, which means that
the kidneys are not working properly.
Poisonous matter and uric acid accu-
mulate within the body in great album
dance, over-working the sick kidneys,
hence the congestion of blood causes
backache in the same manner as SIM
liar congestion in the head causes head
ache. You become nervous respondent,
sick, feverish, irritable, have spots ap-
gearing before the eyes, bags under the
lids, and lack ambition to do things.
The latest and most effective means
of overcoming this trouble, Is to eat
sparingly of meat, drink plenty water
between meals and take single Anuric
tablet before each meal for while.
Simply ask your favorite druggist
for Anuric If you aren't feeling up to
the standard. II you have lumbago,
