Wonderful Discovery

After a series Of careful experiments
and tests at the Invalids' Hotel and Sur
gical Institute, Buffalo, N. Y, covering
many years-Dr. Pierce, the medical d.
rector of that hospital, made announcement
that he could prove that a medicine which
he called "ANURIC'' was the best uric
acid solvent now to be had. As a rem
edy for those easily recognized symptoms
of infammation-as scalding urine, back
ache and frequent ~urination, as well as
sediment in the urine, or if uric acid in
the blood has caused rheumatism, lum-

full how quickly "Anuric' acts; causing

POETS HAVE HAD WRONG IDEA
Their Rhapsodies About the "Deep,
Blue Sea" Shown to Have No
Foundation In Fact.

The poet sings Of the deep, blue
sea-" but the sea is not always blue
by any means. There are any num-
Der of colors to be observed in the
oceans, and many interesting facts
have been gathered with respect to
them.
The Mediterranean and Caribbean
seas present the true blue color The
extraordinary blueness of the first
named has been assigned to two
causes. One Is that very few large
rivers Of fresh water enter it. The
other is that the Mediterranean. prac-
tically landlocked and exposed to
powerful sunlight. has the greatest
evaporation Of all seas. By actual
test, 1t has been ascertained that the
| Mediterranean water is heavier and
saltier than the water of the Atlantic
ocean, which is an important circum-
stance in the consideration of the
cause of its color.
| Aside from blue and green, other
colors are to be seen In the worlds
seas and oceans. In January, 1909, a
river of yellow water, three miles wide
and Of enormous length was observed
running parallel with the gulf stream.
1t stretched from Cape Florida to
Cape Hatteras and was undoubtedly
caused by some submarine upheaval
probably of volcanic nature. 1t en-.
! dured for some weeks.
In 1901, off the California coast
the sea turned almost black. The
whole of Santa Cruz bay assumed this
extraordinary inky hue, and fishing
+, came to an end. In this case no def
mite reason was ascertained for the
phenomenon.
The dull reddish tint that is seen
in the Red sea, and which has given
that body of water its name. is said
to be due to the presence of millions
upon millions of microscopic algae.
The Yellow sea of China is sup
posed to owe its color to the floods
of muddy water that the great river
pours into 1t, but many scientists are
of opinion that the. color is to be
ascribed to the living organisms tina,
flourish in the waters.
Generally speaking. the blueness oil
sea water is in constant ratio to Its
saltiness In the tropics the tremen
deus evaporation induced by the blaz
ing sun causes the water to be much
more salt than it is in more northern
ATTITUDES. For about thirty degrees
both north and south of the equator
the waters are of an exquisite azure
Beyond these ATTITUDES the blue fades
and the color becomes green
