A Fight for Life

1t has been fight or die for many of us
in the past and the lucky people are
those who have suffered, but who are
now well because they needed natures
warning signal in time to correct their
trouble with that wonderful new dis
covery Of DIR. Pierce's, called rAn-u-ric. /"
You should promptly heed those warn
ings, some OF which are dizzy spells,
backache, irregularity Of the urine or the
painful twinges Of rheumatism, sciatica
or lumbago. To delay may make possible
the dangerous forms of kidney disease,
such as Bright's disease, diabetes or
stone in the bladder.
To overcome these distressing condi-
lions take plenty of exercise in the
open air, avoid heavy meat diet, drink
freely of water and at each meal, take
Doctor Pierce's Anuric Tablets double
strength). You will, in short time, find
that you are one of the firm indorsers of
Anuric, as are thousands of neighbors.

AID SCHEME is
KNOCKED OUT
Retailers League Advertising Commit
tee Refuses to Recommend
Church Directory Propo-
slIlon.

The value OF the advertising agree
ment to the Keokuk Retailers league
has again been demonstrated. The
advertising committee has unanimous
ly put the Knockout on a church d.
rectory scheme. The solicitor for this
book came into town and called on
some OF the merchants. She wanted
them to take space In this church
book 1t ~is understood that the rep
resentation was made that the solicit
tor was backed by some of the church
societies. The merchants naturally
hesftated lest they offend some of the
religious institutions. 1t was found
on investigation, however, according
to the secretary CT the league, that
the church societies as a whole knew
nothing OF the scheme, which has orig
mated in chicago and which would
mean the taking OF $500 or more out Of
Keokuk to the benefit only Of that
Chicago advertising bureau.
When the proposition was put up
to the advertising committee it unhes-
itatingly declared the proposition tn
be worthless. and recommended no adj
vertising be taken by members Of the
league in the booklet.

were shot to pieces by, the examina-
