Kidney & Co.
(BY DIR. ]. Fl. wATsoN)

The kidneys and the skin work in har-
mony. They're companions, the skin
being the second partner. If we are
anxious to keep well and preserve the
vitality of tho kidneys and, also, free the
blood from noxious elements, we must
pay special attention to good action of
the skin and to see that the kidneys are
flushed SO as to eliminate the poisons
from the blood.
Sweating, by hard work or in bath,
at least once week, helps to keep the
skin and kidneys in good condition. Flush
the kidneys by drinking plenty of pure
water with meals and between meals.
Occasionally obtain at the nearest drug
store Anuric, which will help flush the
kidneys and the intestines. You will find
that Anuric is many times more active
than ithia and that it dissolves uric
scid as hot water does sugar.
