Tablet. These little tablets are as et-
fective and harmless as thoz famous
prescription from which they take their
name. Buy and try a case today. Your

DOVER, Del, Feb 9--Representa-

afternoon before the Senate Commit
tee on Temperance, on Senator
Hiclman's bill to make It unlawful
for a brewer or wholesale liquor
merchant to have any financial inter-
est whatever in a saloon, or the sa-
loon property. Among those who
spoke before the committee for the
bill were:
Leonard F. Cooper, chairman OF the
delegation; H. A. W. Behen, John
Hickey, John saylor and Frank
Krejci Ir.
Mr.. Hickey said that many persons
apply for LIQUOR licenses In Whining
ton who are merely agents for the
brewer or wholesaler and have no A.
nancial interest whatever In the
place. He claimed the bill under
consideration would result in bet
ter class OF men running saloons. One
person, the speaker said, that he
knew Of, controlled 30 saloons in
Wilmington.
Mr.. Cooper explained TO the COM
mittee how, in his estimation, such a
bill would result In the consumer
getting a better class of goods in
saloons and would tend 70 purify"
the saloon.

Rheuma, the wonderful rheumatism
remedy sold by N. B. Danforth and-all
drugg sts, gives quicker and more
lasting relief than other remedies
costing many time as much.
Rheuma passes the deadly poison
Gus secretions into the bowels and
kidneys, from which they are quickly
thrown off in a natural, healthy way
Read what a reputable physician
says about Rheuma: Il have made
a most careful investigation Of the
formula employed in the manufacture
Of Rheuma, and / heartily recommend
Il as a remedy for all forms OF rheu-

vance OF the methods generally en-
ployed IN the treatment OF rheuma-

position from the remedies usually
prescribed. DIR. Lyons.

URIC ACID
An Enemy in Ambush
lBY Dr. NJ. O InCAsA


II was not until the discovery by Sir
Arthur Garrod, in ls4s that the blood
Of gouty patients contained uric acid In
an excessively large amount, that much
attention was paid to this subject
Later scientific men learned that in gout
(also true In rheumatism), the kidneys
do not work properly TO throw OF the
uric acid poison; consequently uric acid
crystals are deposited in and about the
joints where an Inflammation is set up
In the nearby tissues. When for anv
reason the circulation is sluggish, az in
the joints Of the toes. crystals formed
from uric acid are deposited there, and
one suffers from gouti or, when deposit
ed in the tissues one suffers from mus
cuiar rheumatism OF articular rheuma-
tism. My only medicine 10 counteract
the uric acid and to throw Il out of the
system Is tablets of Anuric double
strength three times day.
The pain In the back, lumbaQo, pain
in the neck, creaky joints. stiffness in
muscles, have all been proven to be
caused by uric acid poison in the blood
and tissues. The kidneys soon become
diseased, then there often follows dis
ease in the muscles Of the heart.
Kidney disease carries away a large
percentage Of our people. What Is to
be donel What can the ordinary person
do 20 properly balance bodily healthf ?
The answer is easy. Eat less meat. eat
coarse, plain food, with plenty Of vege-
tables. drink plenty Of water between
meals and take an uric acid solvent
before meals for awhile, such as Anuric
double strengthl, obtained at almost
any drug store. II was first discovered
by Dr. Pierce, Of the Surgical Institute
in Buffalo, n. Y. Most every one
troubled with uric acid finds that Anurlc
dissolves the uric acid as hot water vii
dissolve sugar
Evening journal., 1917-02-09

thought this would be a good idea, and
said II would drive out some of the
saloons that should so out OF busi-
ness. The committee took no action
on tho bill.
Some OF the legislators have a
strong impression. gained from arti-
cles IN a labor newspaper. that the
pending bill is aimed at the brewers OF
Wilmington because they did not ac-
cede TO deman OF brewery workers
during the str.ke OF the latter.

Mrs. E. G. Phinney
Is Charged With
Attempt to Kill
N. Y. Brokers' Wife Ac-
cused of Trying to Shoot
Husbands Lawyer
LapecIsl Ccrnnmdmcel


JACKSONVILLE, Fla, Sept. 2O.-Mrs.
f. G. Phinney, wife Of lumber broker
of New York, was arrested and put in
jail here this evening on the charge Of
assault with intent to murder Colonel
Cromwell Gibbons, one of the most
prominent bsrristers in the Southern
States. Mrs. Phnney is in Jail in de-
fault of a bond Of 81, 600.
About three days ago Colonel Glib
bons alleges that Mrs. Phinney came to
his Office and attempted to shoot him
She was in rage, he says, regarding a
divorce suit which had been brought By
her husband, and which, she claims,
will not stand, as it is unwarranted.
Colonel Gibbons represented Mr.. Phin-
ney in the suit. 1t was for this reason
Mrs. Phinney was angry with Colonel
Gibbons, il was thought.
According TO witnesses Mrs. Phinney
demonstrated holly with the lawyer for
awhile and drew a pistol on him at the
close of the argument After inter-
ference by bystanders Mrs. Phinney es-
capped to an automobile.
For three days officers had been
searching for her on warrant sworn
out by Colonel Gibbons of the charge
Of assault with intent to murder. This
afternoon she was caught in her board
ing house in a residential section.
Mrs. Phinney seemed to take her ar
rest in a philosophical manner, saying
that the Jail meant nothing to her She
did not seem anxious TO gain her free
dom, and was noncOmmttal about what
her defence would be.
According to Mrs. Phinney she has
beer about three months in Florida.
