SUDDEN DEATH
caused By Disease Of the kldneys.

4 ~ -
The close connection which exists
between the heart and the kidneys is
well known nowadays. As soon as
kidneys are diseased, arterial tension
is increased and the heart functions
are attacked. When the kidneys no
longer pour forth waste, uremic pois-
oning occurs, and the person dies and
the cause is often given as heart dis
ease, or disease of brain or lungs.
1t is good insurance against such
4 risk to send 10 cents for sample
package of "An-uric"-the latest dis
covery of DR.. Pierce. Also send q
sample of your water. This will be
examined without charge by expert
chemists at DIR. Pierce's Ilvalids' Ho
tel, Buffalo, N. Y When you suffei
from backache, frequent or scanty
urine, rheumatic pains here or there,
or that constant tired, worn-out feel
ing, it's time to write DR.. Pierce, de-
scribe your symptoms and get his
medical opinion without charge and
absolutely free. This "An-Urfe" Of
DR.. Pierce,s is 81 times more active
than lithfa, for it dissolves uric acid
in the system, as hot water does sugar.
Simply ask for DR.. Pierce's An-uric
Tablets. There can be no imitation.
Every package of "An-uric" is sure to
be DR.. Pierce's. You will find the
signature on the package just as you

N CULLOCH WILL
TOW IHETIS TO
BAY CITY

That the U. s. coast guard cutter
McCulloch, which arrived last even.
ing, will tow the coast guard cutter
Thetis to San Francisco, although the
Thetis will turn her propellers during
the voyage, became known today when
the McCulloch tied up at the naval
slip just ahead of the Thetis this
morning.
First Lieut.. H. r. Searles, execu-
tive officer of the McCulloch, said the
cutter will tow the Thetis to San
Francisco, and will leave here with
her at 10 o'clock Saturday morning.
The McCulloeh will not take any coal
here, only a few supplies. A faulty
crankshaft on the Thetis is said to be
the reason why the McCulloch has
been ordered to tow instead Of convoy
ing her.
Capt. Byron Z. Reed, the McCul-
loch's commander, said the voyage
from San Pedro was uneyentful. The
McCulloch, according to Lieut..
Searles, spent four days searching for
the schooner Ruby, an old hulk which
was lost at sea while sailing from
the Bay City to San Pedro to be blown
up for the movies.
The McCulloch in the Spanish
American war brought the first news
;of the American victory at the battle
iof Manila bay. She carried Dewey's
dispatches from Manila to Hongkong,
announcing the victory, after the
Spaniards had cut the cables at Mani
la. The news was cabled from Hong.

CHILEAN SAIL ORS KNIFE
EACH OTHER AND REMAIN

An example of unique cornradeship
was shown at the emergency hospital
yesterday after Police Surgeon r. G.
Aver had finished dressing the
wounds of Santiago Vargas and Man
uel Ruido, two chilean sailors attach
ed to the steamer La Conte, now in
port.
Both men had been drinking heavily
all during the night, and had got into
q row with each other, in which
knives were used. Ruido, IN the fra
cas-, sustained two deep cuts in the
back, under the left shoulder blade,
and his comrade had a nasty cash in
his right leg below the knee, the
knife having passed through the
homes to the back of the leg. When
sufficiently sober they emphatically
objected to testifying one against the
other, as they had long been friends
and wanted to continue so.

almost from the time she cleared the

The ruddeF was sprung the first

later went by the board, leaving the
vessel practically helpless.
Captain Forest then rugged a Jury

planks, and with this improvised

the schooner came along well, but in
contrary winds and seas she was at
