NOTE: It is now asserted with con-
fidence that these painful effects due to
uric acid in the system are entirely eradi-
Gated, A new remedy, called 'Anuric,"
has been discovered by DR.. Pierce, and is
the cause Of q drainage outward OF the
uric acid with which it comes in contact
within the body. twill ward off back
ache, headache, and the darling pains and
aches of articular or muscular rheuma-
tism-of those diseases which are caused
by too much uric acid, such as govt,
asthma, sciatica, renal calculus. Van
uric prolongs life because old people usu-
ally suffer from hardening and thickening
of the walls of the arteries, due to the ex-
cess of uric acid in the blood and tissues.
Or. Pierce, who is director and chiet
physician at the Invalids' Hotel and
Surgical Institute, Buffalo, N. r., has
been testing this wonderful medicine Tor
kidneys. The relief obtained by sufferers
bas been so satisfactory that he deter
mined to place 'Anuric" with the prin-
cipal drug !sts in town where people
coald get tits ready-to-uSe medicine.
uAuuric" is not harmful or poisonous,
but aids q,GtsTe in throwing off those
poisons within the body which cause so
much suffering, pnin and misery. Scien-
lists ;.ssert this remedy is 81 times more
potent than iithia.
POr Diabetes and Bright's Disease this
remedy is building up reputation as
good as DR.. Pierce's other well-known
medicines which have been proven reli-
able during nearly fifty years, such as
Doctor Pierce's Favorite Prescription
for the ills of women, Doctor Pierce's
Pleasant Pellets, the liver regulator, and
Doctor Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery
for red blood,

The Revival Service

The second week of the evange-
listic meeting at the Presbyterian
church is nearing an end. and is
growing in interest every day.
While the weather has been very
cold most of the week, it was really
not unfavorable, and the church
has been crowded at almost every
service. -
On Wednesday night, Mr.. Hud-
son estimated the number of con-
versions are reclamations up to
that time at one hundred.
Every service during the week
has been characterized by the most
respectful and serioug attention on
the part of all, and the earnestness
and zeal of christian workers has
been both gratifying and success
full.
Mr.. Hudson referred to the fact
that all business houses have been
closed during the preaching hour
and commended the people of the
town for their cooperation In the
effort being put forth.
Since Wednesday, a morning
service--1O:30 = has been held anc
the attendance has been good.

KILLED
BY FALLING TREE

Homer Tallman Hull, a young
farmer of the Vanderpool neighbor-
hood, died on Sunday last
as the result of a most distress
ing accident. On Saturday, he and
his brother, Morton, were engaged
in cutting pathfinder about mile
south of their home. Three or
four trees had been felled, but
lodged against another tree which
Homer had cut in order to release
the others. When all Of them fell,
a dry chestnut--rather a small
tree-was broken off and borne to
the ground with great force. 1t
was this tree that hit him, break
ing his skull and rendering him I'M
conscious. The day was very cold,
and, being mile from home, the
unfortunate young man had to re-
main in the woods until his brother
could summon assistance. 1t was
perhaps two hours before men could
be collected, a litter prepared and
the injured man gotten to his home
Meantime, however, Mr.. J. H.
Mackey, and perhaps some others,
were on the scene and did what
could be done to protect him from
the cold.
DR.. Walden was called, but
found that the case was practically
hopeless and could do nothing
more than alleviate suffering. Mr..
Hull fingered through the after
noon and night, dying about II
o'clock Sunday morning.
The accident was one of the sad
dest that has occurred in High |
land, and the greatest interest and
sympathy was manifested.
MIR. Hull was a son of the late J.
N. Hull, was % years of age and
married. His wife, a daughter of
5. A. N. Kramer, of Crabbottom,
was at her fathers home when she
received the sad news. She came
at once, bringing with her their
little babe, less than year old.
Mr.. Hull is also survived by his
aged mother, four brothers and five
sisters, all of them, except Mrs.
Wine who lives near Roanoke, be-
ing present at his funeral.
Homer was an industrious, hon
est young man, and, as his grief,
stricken mother expressed it, "a
good boy" After his hurt, he re-
gained consciousness, learned of his
critical condition and asked his rel
atives to pray for him. he himself
apsing into unconciousness while
he earnestly prayed and committed
himself into Gods hands. |
The funeral, one of the saddest
that could be, took place from the
home Monday morning at $50,

kAIsER's COUNTER DRIVE.

London.-The battle on the Somme
front which began a week ago and
has continued since with brief lulls
is still being fought by British and
Germans with utmost subbornness.
An indication OF the Importance the
Germans attach TO defending their
third line is found in the report Of
Gen. Haig, the British commander
and In the German admission that
troops have been brought from before
Verdun in order to lend all possible
strength TO Gen Won Einem.
The British, although they are max
ing only slow progress, have been
able to repulse all the fierce German
counter attacks and fully maintain
their ground although the fighting
consists largely OF hand to hand con-
flicts.
The British are tenaciously holding
TO the portions OF the village from
which they drove the Germans, and
with their artillery fire have repulsed
an attempt by the German infantry
to regain possession Of the northeast
ern portion.
While the German lines along the
Dvina were crumpling up before one
OF the greatest and most furious at
tacks OF the war, the Kaiser and his
chief OF staff were rushing with all
speed toward the scene of the latest
German disaster, oblivious for the
time being to all developments on the
western front.

TO PURCHASE DANISH ISLANDS
Wilson Hopes for Ratification at the
Present Session.

Washington.-O announcement
was made at the White House that
negotiations have practically been
completed for the purchase of the Dan
ish West Indies by the United States
from Denmark for S25,000000.
While details of the treaty are not
yet given out, it is understood that
the United States would come into
complete possession OF tho islands.
Word has been received from Den
mark that the treaty is practically
certain OF being ratified.
Apprehension was felt at the State
Department that Germar-' might OBJ
ject TO the transaction. In previous
negotiations Denmark has enjoined
secrecy for the reason that "the great
publicity given to the subject would
no doubt increase the difficulties here
Copenhagen and make il more diff
ficult To carry the matter through to
success" For years Germany has de-
sired a coaling station In the West
Indies, and also she was understood
TO be desirous that Denmark should
not part with them in the possibility
that there may some time be con-
solidation OF the Danish Kingdom witt
Germany.
