Kidney 6 Co.
lBY DIR. J. H. WATsoNl

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 the 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 eptain 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 acid as hot water does sugar.
