ALLIES
ATTACK
wednesday, Jan. 5, 1915.

BUDAPEST, Jan. 5.-The Teu-
tons expect great spring often
sive by the allies on all fronts.
And the Hungarians are certain
the drive will be defeated.
Count Andrassy today said to
United Press correspondent
THE allies fail to take account of
our military position. We are
situated now so that we can help
each other. We can send men
and resources to any front at any
time.
We can concentrate, some
thing they cannot do"
Contrary to Berlin opinion. the
Hungarians do not look for early
peace.
ut will be long, long war.
We could make peace next week,
but the allies are not yet convinc-
ed OF our superiority.
"The world is becoming hyster-
ical. Even the neutral nations
are impatient. 1t is a shame for
humanity we cannot make peace
now"
The Suez canal will soon be en-
dangered, he added.

URIC ACID GOING--GOING--GONE
"Anuric" Will Not Fail to Stop Your Backache

People are realizing more and more
every day that the kidl eys, just as
do the bowels, need to be flushed oc-
cas'onally. The kidneys are an elimi-
native organ and are constantly work
ing, separating the poisons from the
blood. Under this continual and per
petual action they are apt to longest,
and then trouble starts. Uric acid
backs up into the system, causing
rheumatism, neuralgia, dropsy and
many other serious disturbances. Doc
tor Pierce, of Buffalo, New York, adj
vocates that everyone should drink
plenty of pure water between meals.
Every day should exercise in the out
door air sufficiently to sweat pro-
