Has Made Good as Mayor, State Senator and Lieutenant
Governor

Some men are born great, some achieve greatness and still others have greatness thrust upon them.
 Thomas Erby Kilby, lieutenant governor and banker-manufacturer of Anniston and Birmingham, possesses elements of greatness when viewed from any of these three angles He was born of great stock of people, has achieved big things In the business world, and is now being thrust toward the goal of greatness in politics.
 MT. Kilby was born with a great backbone, and the things he has achieved in life are due primarily to the fact that he has thrust this backbone up against every problem that has come his way Mere backbone alone, however would not have made him the man he is. He has thought much has mingled with men who do things, and has never done violence to his heart impulses. Consequent ly he has character, and character plus back bone invariably makes real man.

Kidney Disorder
(BY DIR. Y. NJ. PIERCE)

BY DIR. V. N. PIERCE)
"The most simple methods are usually
the most effective ones when treating
any disorder of the human system"
The mere drinking cup of hot water
each morning, plenty of pure water all
day, and a little Anuric before every
meal has been found the most effective
Death would occur # the kidneys did
not work day and night in separating
poisons and uric acid from the blood.
The danger signals are backache,
depressions, pains, heaviness, drowsiness,
irritability, headaches, chilliness, rheumatic
twinges, swollen joints or govt.
Since it is such a simple matter to step
into your favorite drug store and obtain
Anuric, anyone who earnestly desires to
regain health and new life will waste no
time in beginning this treatment.
