Are You Being Slowly
Poisoned?

The most eminent physicians recog-
nize that uric acid stored up In the
system is the cause of govt and rheu-
matism, that this uric acid poison ID
deposited in the joints, muscles or
nerve-sheath. BY experimenting ana
analysis at the Surgical Institute IN
Buffalo, N. Y, DR.. Pierce discovered
combination of native remedies that ne
called Anuric, which drives out the
uric acid from the system, and in TINS
way the pain, swelling and inflamma-
ton subside. If you are sufferer
from rheumatism. backache, pains here
or there, you can obtain Anur1c
double strength) at any drug store
and get relief from the pains and ills
brought about by uric acid.
Swollen hands, ankles, feet are due
to a dropsical condition, often caused
| by disordered kidneys. Naturally
when the kidneys are deranged the
blood is filled with poisonous uric
acid, which settles in the tissues OF the
| feet, ankles, wrists or back as uratlc
salts; or under the eyes in bag-like
! formations.
It is Just as necessary to keep the
kidneys acting properly as to keep the
bowels active to rid the body of poi
sons.
The very best possible way to take
care of yourself is to take a glass of
hot water before meals and an Anuric
| tablet In this way it is readily dis
solved with the food, picked up by the
bo4d and finally reaches the kidneys,
where it has a cleansing and tonic eff

Step into the drug store and ask for
50-cent package of Anuric, or send

many times more potent than lithia,
eliminates uric acid as hot water melts
sugar. A short trial will convince you.
